Yates is scheduled to play 2 Preseason Top 25 High School Boys Basketball Ranked Teams in Duncanville 

1. Montverde Academy 

21. Sunrise Academy  
 

If Coach Wise believes he has a special or talented team he is not afraid to play those elite teams with the likelihood he will get blowed out.  
 

I would like to see more area teams step outside of their  comfort zone and schedule these national ranked teams.  

[BADSANTA]

With the great job Yates does recruiting, it is very hard for others to schedule these types of schools. 

[BADSANTA]

Maybe the Faith Family Junior College/G-Leauge would like to play a similar schedule.

My opinion is that the Head Coach for Silsbee missed an golden opportunity for his program to play in those elite tournaments when he had that back2back State Champ Team. Regardless of the outcome (win or loss) in those tournaments, it’s about the exposure for further tournaments. 

If Coach Wise At Yates believes he has a team that can play with the big dogs he doesn’t mind if his team gets the brakes beat off them, it’s about exposure.

Financially Silsbee should have enough alumi to sponsor The Tigers. 

Before Yates Communication Program, the neighborhood kids zoned to Yates shocked the world and beat Oak Hill Academy.

Sounds like Coach Wise trying to match up with Faith Family for sure. Faith is a 6A top 10 team playing in 4A!!

We comparing Silsbee to Yates?? An HISD program to a small town program. Football? Yes Silsbee by 50. Basketball where HISD you are free to go wherever, Yates was supposed  to beat Silsbee in 2016/17 and 2017/18. Last year you "finally" got us. Yates has a new starting lineup this year outside of Jones and the other guard. Silsbee is a year away from being back. Yates better get it this year because Silsbee will be back for the next 2-3 years for sure. There aren't many teams in the country who could be compared the 07-09 Yates teams. Recruiting, kids being 26, and superior talent is what made the difference.

My intentions were not to debate between Yates and Silsbee, I was only pointing out that It would have been nice to see Silsbee play the elite teams.  
 

Badsanta you indicated that Silsbee will be back the next 2-3 years, so I will look forward to seeing The Tigers play the elite top 5 in the near future Sir

Anything can happen in Huntsville, everyone had the 2X defending champ Tigers beating Yates last year by double digits, expect Badsanta who said that Silsbee would win a close game 

[DXTR]

I would consider this and next season to be rebuilding seasons for Silsbee. Saying that, they still will be district favorites and have a good chance to make it to Huntsville. Yates would definitely be the favorite out of the region. As for National tournaments, Silsbee did play in one last year. Maybe there weren’t top 10 teams there, but it was a good field. Hard to get a top 10 team to put a small school like Silsbee on their schedule...even if they did win state x2.

Ok 👍
