Silsbee had this sitiuation a few years ago with a couple of players. Ashton Hall was to have played for Silsbee since he actually lived with his mother in Silsbee( they live two houses down from my parents, my dad talks to Ashton all the time) but Kountze and another school in Silsbee's district fought it and Ashton ened up playing his senior year in Kountze.

The other player was a football player. Adrian Peterson (yes that Adrian Peterson) moved to Silsbee with his mother the summer before his senior year and it looked as though he would enroll at Silsbee. But Palestine's coaches convinced his mother into letting him live with one of the coaches so that he could finish there at Palestine.

It's all about establishing legal residence but you can't transfer for just athletic reasons.

There are ways around all the rules. A few years back a kid from Kountze Tray Peters came to Evadale as a freshman just to play V BB, when he couldnt make the V team it Kountze. He moved a old RV in to a park in Evadale, never stayed the first night, and as soon as BB season was over he went back to Kountze. So dont say you cant move just for athletic reasons its done ever year some were.

What I meant was that you could not do it legally.

I just got in from the tournament and will post all the scores and give a summary of the championship game along with a brief summary of the tourney in a few minutes.

Or, I could not waste my time posting since DV says this is a worthless tourney. I'll just call Travis and let him know I won't waste my time helping him out. ::)

AAW, it is important to remember that, as one of "those people down there" ( if you had said that, you would have been accused of being a racist) you lack the sophistication and understanding of basketball which is reserved for the enlightened few and you should not attempt to offer a thought or opinion since it has no value. 

Thanks for that piece of advice, nash. Next time I'll keep my mouth shut.

Oh, and someone needs to tell Marquis Saveat that he shouldn't be participating in these "worthless" tournaments.

Did anybody notice that Ozen lost to two 3A schools in this "worthless" tourney?

did anyone notice that silsbee had their whole varsity team,while ozen was playing with mostly freshman and sophmores

How come the results where not posted here???

I guess the home team did not do very well.

This tourney took place over a month ago. If you would take the time to go through this entire thread, you will see the results of this tourney posted.

Bench Warmer, get off the bench and get with the program.

      Port Neches-Groves vs Texas High

      I too, wish #15 was healthy and playing.  And also another RB (can't recall the #), who went down in the first game of the season. But, some others have stepped up and are hard runners.  I'm really looking forward to watching this game.

      Still, from what little I saw, it should have been a much closer game.  WOS was missing some fundamentals on defense, and a lack of imaginative play calling on offense.  Just my opinion as an objective observer on Texan Live, which was horrible btw, but that's another story.

      West Orange Stark has been a powerhouse since I csn remember. At some point, your bound to fall off to some degree. Alabama has 3 or 4 loses this season. Who would have thought? Has Orange lost kids to LCM or even Orangefield?

      Port Neches-Groves vs Texas High

      By Bordertown · Posted

      Interesting matchup this Friday. Both teams have very good offensive and defensive lines, which will make this game interesting. Having watched Texas High all season, they have a wide open offense with very good skill players. If you look at their stats they run the ball 57% of the time and pass 43% of the time. Personally, that is a bit deceiving, as most of their games have seen reserves running the ball in the 4th quarter. I would estimate the primary offense is 50/50. Through 12 games they have run for 3,224 yds (48tds) and passed for 2,894 yds (32 yds). Potter, the Tiger QB, has been very efficient with a 69% completion rate and 1 interception (which came from a tipped pass). The passing is distributed primarily to 4 receivers…. Ball (865), Wrightner (811), Montgomery (532), & Pilgreen (392). The rushing comes from 3 running backs … Johnson (1,432), Ball (768) & Moore (716).  The Tiger defense is solid and very quick.    Hope #15 is healthy enough to play. He is a test for any defense. I was concerned about the Nederland RB, but felt Texas High did a good job containing him. I wish this game was in the afternoon, as Nachitoches is having their Festival of Lights and their will not be any rooms in the inns and restaurants will be full so plan accordingly. PNG are state champions until someone knocks them off, so I extend the Indians the respect they deserve. Pulling for the Tigers.
