bobcatfan Posted October 11, 2010 Report Posted October 11, 2010 I just got the new Texpreps Magazine for this basketball season. I posted the Top 10's for all classes and also all the district picks for east and southeast Texas. In the link below is where it is all posted. You can go there for all your east Texas basketball info. Over the next month I'll be posting full schedules, and some point in the season will start 1A-5A rankings. Also there will be scores and standings throughout the season.http://eastexsports.com/forum/index.php?board=15.0
ST413 Posted October 11, 2010 Report Posted October 11, 2010 Thanks for the post. I made the statement on the other site so I will make it here. Their logic is hard to understand, they have H-J ranked higher than Silsbee, yet they have the Tigers picked as the district favorite?????

Another example of this is 1A-II Leggett is ranked in the top 10 but only ranked 3rd in district, and the 1st and 2nd place teams arent even ranked in the top 10.
ST413 Posted October 11, 2010 Report Posted October 11, 2010 That makes sense. These polls don't really mean a whole lot anyway. It is great to get recognised. You would think with the Tigers record the last several years they would get a little more repect statewide though.
