Actually Hup, I saw Tarkington play twice this season, at the EC tourney. I am sorry, I wasn't too impressed. But, if it makes you feel any better, they are better than they have been in the past. ;)

Whats your take?
[/quote]

1. do you [b][i]really[/i][/b] want an answer to that question, and if so 2. what would you do with the information if someone could answer that? are you doing an article, are you just curious, or are you someone who is in a position to take that information and do something with it, thats all IF someone could give you a good answer?

i wrote my opinion in the tarkington vs. huffman predictions thread and you didn't respond to that other than to say they've been without a starter so either you didn't read it or you didn't buy any of it or you just want some new opinions. you must have seen some games and have some interest to ask the question. what's your take townbball?

I hardly think you are qualified to talk about what Tarkington has been in the past and how this team compares to past teams.  Nevertheless, you gave the guy what he was looking for which was for someone to trash Tarkington.  Silsbee and HJ fans always seem eager to put down anyone else in 3A in the area.

At last count, I have watched and/or broadcasted a total of 54 games just this season, covering from Woodville to Winnie and Orange to Cleveland.

I saw Tarkington last year also in the EC tourney as I covered that tournament exclusively last year. Like I said, they are better than they were last year.

I'll put my knowledge of basketball up against your's any day, Hup.

When they played Cleveland it was 119 to 64 and that was more than Coldspring or Splendora put up against Cleveland. Im nit a big basketball fan and the only reason I watch it is because C
Cleveland is good and I am a strong supporter of our sports.
  Coldspring and Splendora ut a total of 78 points against Cleveland

    • 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. 
    • Either way,one game lead in the series. I rely to much on word of mouth 
    • 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?
    • 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.
