I think Harris is very Adams like. He's lean and can jump and get to the rim pretty easy. He's currently a sometimes good 3 point shooter as well. You better look out if/when he gets bigger and better.

Miller isn't really McCain like at the moment. He's more blue collar and not very flashy. Nothing wrong with that as long as it gets the job done. Also, unlike McCain, football will be taking up a lot of his time. Not sure if that will affect his b-ball game at all or not.

This should not be allowed unless the 4 teams from this round and the next that would face each other agreed to a tourney type situation per the uils calendar.  But I have been told that is the case.  Hmmmm.

Did they move the game time because of Covid concerns? I’m going with Silsbee to pull the upset, Tigers by 5.

Yes Yates was exposed in their game saturday.  By rules they are supposed to sit out 7 days and have to have a negative test after 5 days before participating.  From what i have been told HiSD has fought to move this game to friday to try to circumvent that rule and the playoff schedule to keep yates from having to use their jv and freshmen.  Now anyone knows that i am anti big city schools and what goes on there as far as transfers etc.  But i will say i hate to see this covid crap messing up anyones season, but the rules set should be what is followed.  No exceptions should be made.  Would it have been fair in our district to have let us reschedule our games after you were forced to forfeit yours?

I do believe your district has a rule that doesn't allow reschedule games during district play, "I could be totally wrong".  Rules are written to be circumvented and changed (College Sports, NBA, NFL, MLB) It's the America Way lol

I have no problem with our district..

I do.  That was the dumbest rule ever and cost Silsbee a share of the district championship.  But you are right...once they instituted that asinine rule and enforced it against Vidor, there was no going back.  I am assuming this is the first time it’s arisen these playoffs or any team who got screwed is going to have a helluva beef with the uil.

    • That’s a heck of a take there. If you could just remove Kountze’s top 6-7 players, you got them.
    • 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
