Hope and Pray they resume the tournament in April (like the 1st or 2nd week). I was looking forward to some of the matchups this year. Ok but you being a fan of yates and me being a fan Of Silsbee know dang good and well aau shape and the shape these guys are in for high school are not the same at all. And a month off for a team with the style those two teams play is big as far as game condition goes. Quote
rupert3 Posted March 13, 2020 Report Posted March 13, 2020 I know the kids are almost grown, however it still has to hurt deeply. How can they ever get their hearts fired up for another round or finish? ST413 1 Quote

SportsJunkie32 Posted March 13, 2020 Report Posted March 13, 2020 I’m thinking out loud, each conference can play their games in smaller venue similar to the playoffs. The games would be at neutral sites and the Finals for each conference would be played at a neutral site. I understand that all of the conference semi and finals can not be played under one roof but smaller venues with a reduced crowds should work.UIL can approve to extend the season and allow the games to be played. Their are facilities (basketball arenas) in Houston that are not being used. Just food for though watup 1 Quote
whsalum Posted March 13, 2020 Report Posted March 13, 2020 No way in the world you could take off 2 or 3 weeks and come back anywhere near where you are as a team. Sad deal for the players for sure. Quote

You’d be shocked at how out of shape some of these kids are coming off a high school season. And I’m not close to kidding. Quote

Sad deal for the players for sure. This is absolutely the truth. I might be wrong but I would think given the style and type of game Yates plays, they are best suited to pick up in a few weeks or a month and lose the least steps, so to speak. Quote
no-look Posted March 13, 2020 Report Posted March 13, 2020 Seems the tourney had a cloud hanging over it before it started. Couldn’t get into the games that were played today. During the last game they carted out a guy on a stretcher. Don’t know what was the issue. Everything just seemed wrong. Maybe next year will be back to normal. TrojanMoJo 1 Quote

navydawg31 Posted March 13, 2020 Report Posted March 13, 2020 Just no way in my eyes they continue this at a later date... I’m sure UIL will allow everyone that made the tourney to put a * for 2020 “championship” and send every kid a medal.... < that hurt for me to say because I’m a firm believer in a 1st place and loser in a sport. But during this time right now there is no winner at all. My heart goes out to all those kids that dreamed and worked so hard for it to be taken away from them just like that... they will forever and always have that what if question stuck in their head.

SportsJunkie32 Posted March 13, 2020 Report Posted March 13, 2020 Still holding out hope that The UIL allows the tournament to proceed. If they decide to resume the tournament, Yates will be ready to press for 32 minutes. Its the only style of basketball Yates Plays. DXTR 1 Quote

Then the UIL could have allowed the tournament to continue without the fans in the stands but tuned in with their hand held devices or in their hotel rooms.
