LC-M says "We ain't scared!! Bring it Yates!"

[AggiesAreWe]

Got word today that Coach Brad Jeffcoat of Little Cypress-Mauriceville and Coach Greg Wise of Jack Yates have agreed to play this season, Dec. 22 at Jack Yates HS.

Bears coming to wreck house!!

[AggiesAreWe]

As one Bear fan stated after hearing of this game, "Yates shmates.This ain't no biggie".

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Umm..ugh...well....have fun LCM. 

[Bear Cave]

If you get a chance to play the #1 team in the state, you take it.  Playing these Silsbee teams the last several years showed us where we stood relative to the elite teams in the state and that's an opportunity we didn't want to pass up.  We've also got a home game schedule with Wheatley on January 2.  Really excited/hopeful to play this year!

Storied Houston Wheatley coming to The Grove. I'll be there!

When you go to Yates, just don't get caught up in their chant. It's easy to do.

"Ooo Ahh, Third Ward High!!!"

Would have been more ballsy of them to have done it this past year.

What does Yates even have at the moment? They lost a lot, I think.

Lost most of their guard play but have their bigs back plus transfers.

I don’t think I’ve seen an LCM player other than Jason Throop who would have gotten significant minutes for any Yates team in the past 20-30 years.  This year is no different.

I'm thinking Van Wade could have played for Yates.

LCM did not want to play the 2019-2020 Yates Team, trust me it would have been a one sided game. 

[SportsJunkie32]

The majority of Yates Fans are probably not familiar with LCM or what district they play in. Good to see a SETX team play in the Lions Den. To be political correct, it’s going to be an interesting game for a qtr. If you think the fans are nasty in SETX wait until you visit 3rd Ward. Yates doesn’t have a student section at their home games at the school. After the blowout stop by Frenchy’s Chicken, it’s a 3rd Ward thang.

This is not the storied Wheatley Team, the community, alumni and fan base does not support this basketball program. You no longer hear that famous chant of Wheatley, Wheatley, Wheatley during their games. The full court press is non-existence doing their games. 

Ooo Ahh, Third Ward High All Day

When did the Wheatley folks stop supporting their squad? I remember back in the day they had some nickname, Purple Power or something like that, they were REALLY good.

I know Wheatley isn't what they used to be but the name still is storied.

Loved watching them as a kid when they were coached by legendary Jackie Carr.

True. I will miss the tourneys but most of them have the same teams every year. Time to expand the horizon. Lol

I would say in the last 10 years, let me be clear when I say Wheatley folks have stop supporting the team as far as their fans attending the games, student athletics that are zoned to Wheatley are going to other local schools.  The rich basketball tradition at Wheatley sadly does not exist.

You have to try Cream Burger, another 3rd Ward Spot located at 3841 Elgin St and Scott.  I would go there during my lunch period at Yates.

Is there a schedule out for Silsbee yet
