My understanding is Roschon from PNG was originally a Port Arthur kid. There certainly could be a multitude of reasons a family might want to move to a particular school district or another.

The few games I have been able to see, I would have liked to have seen them be more aggressive around the rim. They have some length and should have a few more of those dunks they talk about IMO.

Expand To me there's more kids transferring away from Ned to Port Arthur Memorial than vice versa right now. It changes every several years. Once that new HS is built it'll switch again.

I've watched Lamar 3 times this year to see if I could see why they are not winning and it starts with the Coach as far as recruiting and of the talent your bringing in isn't getting it done and hasn't for the past years or so and there moving to a new conference then best believe they will be moving in with a new Coach.

Expand Idk. He has two years left on his contract. This year has been a mess for a lot of teams. I will say that if he scheduled 6 NAIA teams (like McNeese), his record would be better. As for recruiting, he has one of the best freshmen in the conference and one of the best recruits Lamar has had in a long time in Kasen. And I think this is only his second losing season he’s had. If you’re going to buy someone out, you better make sure the replacement is going to be better. “Taking a flyer” on a HS coach who has never coached at the collegiate level would definitely not fit that bill.
