I keep hearing rumors that these two teams play tomorrow.  I say *rumors* because I ain't heard a *peep* from the Nederland congregation about splitting with Ozen this year. Maybe a reality check hit yall?

So whats it gonna be Nederland? This is the (final) year  to do anything. And don't forget, this is the team since the 8th grade yall been waiting for to compete in this district.

So why is it the final year?  Sounds like your more concerned about it than Nederland fans.

Dude can coach...  Plus he had Wiesbrod, who apparently has game..judging by his performance while at Nederland and while playing d-1 ball...  It helps to have a monster at your disposal...

Well Nederland didn't beat Ozen with Weisbrod in District his senior year but they got them in the 3rd round of the playoffs. Nederland split with Central that year in district.

Colton was and is a special kind of player.  Has plenty of talent but also a rare kid who gets every single bit of production he can with what he has. However, we all knew English could coach before he had Weisbrod and before he was even at Nederland.  I saw them the Bulldogs the first game of the season and they have definitely improved a lot since then.  Which you would expect from an English-coached team.  Ozen is and should be a heavy favorite in this one.  But I am long past being shocked any time Big Ned pulls off an upset in this district.

On paper this game probably shouldn't be close. Ozen obviously has the better athletes. Ned strength is that we have role players that together make a pretty good TEAM. Not sure that that will be enough tonight.

Seen them play several times this year.  Ozen plays as a team as good as any team...  PLUS, they have great talented guards.  This team may be one to watch this year on the state scene in the playoffs...

I have Ozen by 15+

(1) In reality, the game won't be close (2) One of Ozen's strength is that they have role players who make up a good team (3) Will be enough to beat Nederland tonite.

I think Nederland uses this game in preparation for fighting for that 2nd-4th playoff spot.

      Waco LaVega is about equal to Hitchcock in speed and size.

      Barbers Hill (28) vs La Porte (55) - FINAL

      By Goslin · Posted

      You’re the one talking about Elementary school kids.  What I’m saying is that there are kids who play Jr School ball in GCCISD and then transfer into BHISD/GPISD/LPISD/DPISD between 8th and 9th.  Doing so means no PAPF/eligibility questionnaire and they get to play Freshman/JV, work out with the team, etc. and look homegrown because they transferred before freshman year.  it’s a loophole.  All the big programs do it.  That’s why the UIL rules changes, to close up the 8th-to-9th transfer portal, and it isn’t even taking effect until Aug 1 2025 so you’ll see these transfers this summer. Also, as far as BHISD being closed instead of open, just look at the GCCISD transfer numbers I posted.  GCCISD loses twice as many kids to BHISD per year, the “closed” district, than they do to the open Districts in the area.  Anyone who lives here knows folks who’ve used MeeMaw’s address to get their kids in there.  It is what it is and if it wasn’t, UIL wouldn’t be changing those rules and sending one of their own to the DECs now would they?   Go ask Coach Abseck how many kids in his program are 8th Grade transfers.  We know that at North Shore that number is at least 20% because of the numbers they had to provide UIL during their recruiting investigation.  I’ll bet BHISD’s numbers are AT LEAST that.  Again, THEY ALL DO IT.

      According to Texas Tribune, Gccisd, Laporte and deer park are all rated B. Barbers Hill is an A. GC has a higher 4 year graduation rate than LP or DP. BH is far and away the best district on this side of town. GC has a much higher percentage economically disadvantaged at 71.7% with LP being next closest at 52%. Surprised that GC is performing so well considering. All of the players that would likely make a great football team are out by GCM and Sterling. If GCM had Lee's coach and dropped back down into 5A division 1, they would be able to compete very well against BH and LP. I don't know what their problem is with getting the athletes to gel into an actual team. Lee still beat them both this year and was sort of a down year by Lee's standards. Lot of injuries some kids moved out of district and they are paper thin as it is.
