And with that 16-5 district record, there are still some Jag faithful that don't support our coach.  I'm not settling for mediocrity but like someone said about Faircloth, it could be worse and we have had worse in the past.  The non-district and playoff record isn't pretty but not too many around here in the area are...

not to hi jack or change the subject, but that passage says CUPECAKE ALL OVER IT. the pre and post isn't that great, but can run through the district. Nederland, PN-g and Central is/was the better teams above the rest of the district...and looking how central played at times, you wonder how in the hell they play so well in district play?? not trying to knock on our club, but it makes you think, do they gel at the right time or the district is that bad??

During the time of that 16-5 district record for Central there non district opponents have included WOS, PAM, West Brook, and Summer Creek. The schedule they play is pretty tough. Not knocking anybody else's schedule but take PNG for example in the same time frame they have played Clear Lake, WOS, Tyler Chappel Hill. I think the non district schedule has prepared Central for district success. I also agree that in the past three or four years the teams that should have finished at the top of the district actually did. I also agree that the district is down compared to maybe 10 years ago.

I will be the one to say you hit the nail on the head, since Brandon Faircloth arrived, after that first year, we haven't had that much success at defense, and its downright discouraging  that he plays  his best players on offense and leaves little attention to the defense. I think players that are capable of going both ways should. Just my opinion though.

He is definitely an Offensive minded coach and they have proven to be very productive. I'm not sure that playing kids both ways is the solution, but I'm sure a few on the offensive side could help some. I think it is a philosophy problem with little emphasis placed on defense, You would think that PNG could find a few kids every year that were physical and liked to hit people. The defense seems passive, JMO.

I thought PNG played some good defense last year.  They definitely are not passive, look at the Lejeune kid, he'll knock anybody coming over the middle.  Same with the Robinson kid and several others.  I think what you have is an offensive philosophy that scores quickly and the defense is out there more if they aren't getting stops and it can snowball.  JMO

    • naw, maaaaybe 7, definitely not 8 deep.  today im avoiding sitting by #10s parents, had to move away yesterday.   "put my son back in jub, put my son back in"  and then crying on every little touch of someone.    lets ball out today ktz!    
    • Very close game until the 2nd half (mostly the 4th) when Orangefield came unraveled. Worse defensive effort I have seen out of the Bobcats in three years. This team has to get back on D and quit getting beat over the top when pressing. Offensively, non ball handlers continually turn it over and their shot selection is poor. Basic basketball, such as: defensive hustle, boxing out, and taking care of the basketball are the areas the Bobcats need to work on most. Whitmire will get them on point, but he shouldn't have to coach effort at the Varsity Level.  We'll be at McNeese this Friday night at 6pm.
    • I don’t benefit from it, that’s not my area.  But the average cost to imprison someone is around $15k per year (on average in the US) and capital cases cost somewhere between $1.5-$3M with over half being overturned or reduced to life in prison anyway.  These numbers may be inflated since the last report I read but I’m sure it would be on both sides and higher on the DP side if anything. So what’s the point?  We feel better because we got to return the favor on someone (hopefully) who committed a heinous crime?  And I don’t know I can say we have “complicated” it. Which appeal should we cut out?  Our justice system has a pecking order and we have higher courts for a reason. When we are about to impose the ultimate judgment, should we cut steps that other cases have to save a buck?  Or do we not pay for an indigent person’s experts at the trial court level because it’s too expensive? Or do we just lock them up and throw away the key (unless we later find out they weren’t actually guilty, in which case we have a key and a life we haven’t unjustly ended) and save a ton of money?  Seems to me to be an obvious solution but I’m more of a pragmatist.
    • 1 thing for certain. Coach Earned 3 more years to figure it out lol
