I-CAN-PLAY Posted October 22, 2009 Report Posted October 22, 2009 To prove my point I will go to the History books.. I will keep it within the last ten or so years. Let's see what the greats in 3A in this area have done. It is basically two small schools that rule this area when it comes to playing college ball. I already done Spears. I will save the best two for last. The Handcocks because they were so many. They were all average players to glue guys on a midmajor D1 team. (proved my point) Ashton Hall great 3A player (has been a glue guy, might be an Average player now) Lousi Arline was an average player at a midmajor D-1 and was all-star in high school. Netherly at WOS was great in high school, but where is he now? The HJ kids (good coaching goes a long way in high school) go on to play football or Junco, but D1 is a little out of reach. The Best two were Thadeous Holden and Trey Peters. Thad and Lou really don't count because they were 4A at the time. But Silsbee counts as a small school town. Thad was the better of the two and became a pillar on a D1 Tennessee program. He looked like a star at LU. But the level changes in the SEC and he became a glue guy and starting PG. Trey Peters had all the tools and the height but he did not have the drive to play college ball. He was the best shoot and had the most pure game with usable talents at a big time D1.. Most likely though he would have been average at best.

I guess it was more behind the title than I know. All I am saying is that at time some people have unrealistic ideas about high schiool players and thier translation to college.[/quote]Learn "transition." It's a better word.[/quote]Transition: movement, passage, or change from one position, state, stage, subject, concept, etc., to another; change:Translation: a function obtained from a given function by adding the same constant to each value of the variable of the given function Superimpose: to impose, place, or set over, above, or on something else.I used the word I wanted to. As you read above the mathematical definition of [b]translate[/b] is what I was trying to imply. The function is college basketball. The constant is Benards Game! The variable is the different levels of college basketball. I am not talking about his passage into college game from the high school game. *sorry* I could try saying it this way! "I am talking about taking his skill set and [b]superimposing[/b] it onto the different levels of college ball." But I do not think that [b]transition[/b] is the proper word for what I am explaining! Thank you for your concern anyway little buddy!On another note this is a message board not an English exam. I will probably misspell words, speak improper English, use acronyms, and paraphrase quite a bit. So I hope you have fun correcting me![/quote]Well, SCUZE me. Aren't we a little sensitive today. :o
DogOne Posted October 22, 2009 Report Posted October 22, 2009 Excuse my ignorance but what juco does Jarvis Benard for?

shorttexas1 Posted October 23, 2009 Report Posted October 23, 2009 Dog no ignorance on your part. Its hard to follow junco ball. ICANPLAY you better leave small school ball alone. That could get you banned.
mrsomebody Posted October 26, 2009 Report Posted October 26, 2009 he was fun to watch in high school and im sure he will continue to get better and do very well in college as well.
jay Posted November 11, 2009 Report Posted November 11, 2009 I don't think unrealistic ideas were mentioned, the post just states that he had a good first game. Way to go Jarvis, we"ll miss you at H J this year.

Master T Posted November 12, 2009 Report Posted November 12, 2009 I haven't read it no where on the school site where it said that Jarvis dropped 37...his highest he made was 14 point.
Lazeek Posted November 13, 2009 Report Posted November 13, 2009 It was a exhibition game not a regular season game that he scored 37 in.
