Are you making excuses that if Silsbee wins a few playoff football games that the Tiger hoop team may suffer for a while???

;D ;D ;D ;) ;)

Always leave it to some HJ guy to try and read between the lines. ::) Silsbee had this many last year playing football and they started the year 11-1.

Give it a rest. I was just wanting to see how many played football.

Haha......awfully touchy this morning!!! ;D ;D

I can think of 5 for HJ...........Turner, Venable, Gustafson, Anderson (who has broken arm) and Persohn.

I know Turner and Gus are basketball starters, Venable maybe too. Is Anderson and Persohn potential starters? I know the first 3 start for the football team, do the last 2 start?

Are you saying that at East Chambers, if you want to play basketball or any other varsity sport, you HAVE to play football? Am I understanding you correctly?

I was told this is not the case. It's just so that nearly every kid plays football and other sports at EC. That's how it has always been.

[/quote]When my son was a sophmore we received a letter in the mail stating that to play other sports you had to play football...the fb numbers were down and they were trying to bring it up......neadless to say it took about an hour to iron that little wrinlkle out....I support  the fb program but that tatic didn't work....things are a lot better the last few years.

No Look I'm glad that didnt last long, surely the ole if you dont play football you cant play basketball statement isnt still around...Please. If a kid wants to play basketball, then he should just get to play basketball..same in every other sports...Schools are there to serve kids, keep them involved in whatever they want to do..Even if its just one sport.

I imagine this is more prevelant in 3A and down but just wondering how many you have playing football at your school.


For Silsbee

6, 2 starters, 3 key reserves.

All 6 of these players are starters on the football field.

Is JJ one of them

      Barbers Hill (28) vs La Porte (55) - FINAL

      By Separation Scientist · Posted

      That should tell everyone something pretty clearly. Does anyone really think BH is recruiting elementary kids, to get them to transfer in Jr. high? Seriously? Here is the "dirty little secret" about BH: Most people move to the district for a quality living environment to raise their young family, and benefit from the outstanding acedemics at BH. Even If all athlectics suddenly disappeared from BH, people would still want their kids in the district. If thats not enough to convince anyone, and BH really was determined to recruit, first step would be to have open enrollemnt. It is closed.        Yes, I get it, no one ever wants to give BH the benefit of the doubt on anything. Some of the accusations are beyond ridiculous though. This paranoia the BH critics are afflicted with is not just sad, its flat out laughable.

      Opting is always an option. Are they considering any BC assistants? Highly qualified after that season they put up.

      Waco La Vega (42) vs West Orange-Stark (20) - FINAL

      By SmashMouth · Posted

      Be that as it may, only time will tell. Hide and watch. Don’t be surprised if the next HC hire uses his own recipe. That happens more than not historically. I am not arguing the point that Hooks & CT had a winning combination that could’ve been carried over. I’m saying that finding someone to do that is not going to be as easy as one might think. Tell me again why Saban’s replacement, who even has Saban’s assistance if he wants it, just lost another game to an unranked team and has taken the Tide out of playoff contention? Why wouldn’t he just follow the success of possibly the greatest college football coach ever lived?

      We've acknowledged having 2 HOF coaches hasn't been like most other schools. So why everyone jumps to the conclusion it wouldn't work here is beyond my comprehension. I see it carry over with these other hires. Gilmer, Aledo, North Shore, Austin Westlake. Next man up that continues the system in place has instant success. Matter fact there was 2 rookie HC that won the state championship the same year we handed over the keys. Same book. Same recipe. Better ingredients.
