Tyler Dixson Posted October 17, 2015 Report Posted October 17, 2015 Grayland Arnold said he is not playing this season on Twitter. Quote
whsalum Posted October 17, 2015 Report Posted October 17, 2015 That would be a huge blow to the Lions however if it is related to his scholarship to Baylor you can't blame him. Those scholarships were worth a fortune before the football team became relevant now they are even more valuable. Quote
no-look Posted October 17, 2015 Report Posted October 17, 2015 Most of the time they wind up playing. Quote

Those scholarships were worth a fortune before the football team became relevant now they are even more valuable.According to some Kountze folks, it's the reason why he is not playing much on the football field currently.

Mr. Buddy Garrity Posted October 18, 2015 Report Posted October 18, 2015 Cant play scared, ok save him for Baylor, what if he gets hurt 1st practice at Baylor and not able to play again and they take him off scholarship to provide it for an incoming replacement? What then? This is Baylor we're talking about here, not the most trustworthy coaching staff per prior issues recently. TxHoops and 5GallonBucket 2 Quote

If you are talking about the Boise State issue, you will find you are completely incorrect in making your conclusion. There are few coaches in the country who, as a person, are equal to Art Briles.

Heck I believe there is a thread started just for it in the college forum. Check it out if you want to. TxHoops 1 Quote
whsalum Posted October 18, 2015 Report Posted October 18, 2015 I don't.I wasn't talking about playing hurt. I had heard he may graduate early and enroll at Baylor. If that's the case I certainly understand getting on campus and started in the program in Waco. Just from watching the young man play I don't think for a second he is worried about getting injured playing basketball. Quote
AggiesAreWe Posted October 18, 2015 Report Posted October 18, 2015 (edited) I wasn't talking about playing hurt. I had heard he may graduate early and enroll at Baylor. If that's the case I certainly understand getting on campus and started in the program in Waco. Just from watching the young man play I don't think for a second he is worried about getting injured playing basketball. If the plan is to early enroll at Baylor, then by all means do not play basketball. No sense in starting a sport and have no intentions of finishing it, particularly not playing when it really counts.My post was about people stating he is keeping himself out of football games of late to not jeopardize anything. That is not being a football player and surely not a team player, if this is the case. A few of the folks that have told me these things I trust they know what they are talking about.Just has a bad look and vibe.

whsalum Posted October 18, 2015 Report Posted October 18, 2015 I agree with that whole heartedly, I haven't seen Kountze play football this year. I thought he was still the main cog in their football team. Quote

ST413 Posted October 18, 2015 Report Posted October 18, 2015 Could any of this be due to the rumors of him not being happy in Kountze that were going around this summer? Quote

Heck I believe there is a thread started just for it in the college forum. Check it out if you want to. Peterson did lie about the situation and, if my memory is correct, that was validated by the players father. Quote
BADSANTA Posted October 19, 2015 Report Posted October 19, 2015 What a blow to the basketball team and that almost kills their chances to go back to state. KHSAlum400 1 Quote
KHSAlum400 Posted October 27, 2015 Report Posted October 27, 2015 Grayland Arnold will be on the court when the Lions conduct their 1st practice. TxHoops and Mr. Buddy Garrity 2 Quote
BIG SHOW Posted October 27, 2015 Report Posted October 27, 2015 What a blow to the basketball team and that almost kills their chances to go back to state. Sorry, if Graylan doesn't play basketball it kills any shot of going to state not almost. Quote
aTmfan06 Posted October 28, 2015 Report Posted October 28, 2015 He also posted a day or two ago wishing good luck to a Silsbee player and that he will see them in San Antonio. I'm willing to bet he plays. He isn't enrolling early at Baylor. Quote

I'm willing to bet he plays. He isn't enrolling early at Baylor. There's a huge possibility for both Silsbee and Kountze to represent at the State Tournament this year. I don't think that's ever happened. BADSANTA 1 Quote
aTmfan06 Posted October 28, 2015 Report Posted October 28, 2015 That would bring a lot of support for both teams Quote
TopDawG52 Posted October 28, 2015 Report Posted October 28, 2015 Who is Our Biggest Competition in the Region ? Quote
KHSAlum400 Posted October 29, 2015 Report Posted October 29, 2015 Who is Our Biggest Competition in the Region ? I would start with #25 East Chambers and #17 Palestine Westwood. Westwood returns their 6'5" post Travion Hicks and Sutherland will have EC geared up and ready to go by the time district play rolls around. #18 White Oak should be in the running also. I think it will come down to Kountze and East Chambers in the end. Quote
IT'S IN THE BONE Posted November 2, 2015 Report Posted November 2, 2015 (edited) According to Graylands Twitter..."can't wait to hoop it up" plus several other tweets about ring chasing...so I would say he plans on playing Basketball. Best of luck Lions Edited November 2, 2015 by IT'S IN THE BONE KHSAlum400 1 Quote
Guest Posted November 11, 2015 Report Posted November 11, 2015 The carousel of highschool kids wanting or not wanting to play the game when already committed to a university. Interesting.I had heard from a Kountze coach during the middle of district (football season) that Grayland was not "hooping it up" but I told him then he's crazy.Grayland likes basketball more than football. Joubert would just coach basketball year around if they would let him, in which I did hear he was going back to full time basketball. How or why they would allow an AD (head football coach) to even be on the basketball court just blows my mind. But, we are talking about Kountze here. Basketball is all they got. 1 football playoff appearance in 40 plus years. Quote
