What 3a teams besides HJ and Silsbee would give Kountze a good game??... besides WOS we have played everyone in that district.. the 1a teams we have played are state ranked besides Evadale...

You beat me to it. I guess we need to play 4A/5A teams now to get ready for district and playoffs.

[/quote]Well, I know you were probably digging a little, and thats OK.  But sure! Kountze has one heck of a basketball tradition and I'd dang sure be playing up...way up if needed.  With Kountze its not about getting ready for district its about getting ready for the drive to Austin!  Leggett, Goodrich???  No way ranked teams in [b]Div II[/b] 1A should even be considered.  I'm just making an observation. 
An Example is WOS in football, those guys play up and travel to get tough games, not games they expect to blow someone out but games they expect to get their nose bloodied a bit. 
Sorry, I'll leave you basketball fellas alone...

In the past 4 years Leggett AND Goodrich have both been STATE semi-finalist in their respective classification. I would understand your observation more if we played just ANY 1A school, regardless of ranking. As mentioned before, outside of H-J and Silsbee on the 3A level in SE Texas, no one offers any competition. I myself wouldn't know if Joubert attempted to schedule any 4A teams in the area, but I do know that in years past, it was difficult schedule those 4A/5A teams for their fear of losing to a "2A" team. Now that I think of it, you asked about Kountze scheduling lower classified teams and getting nothing out of the game. How do you think those 4A/5A schools feel when asked about scheduling Kountze, [u]a team 2 or 3 classifications lower[/u]? Would you then be asking them the same question?

for Example the 07-08 year..Kountze tried to schedule ozen but they wouldn't play them.... yes that is the year ozen went to austin.... Kountze played alot of good teams that year... Lost to Pflugville Conally by 2 in the Lufkin Tour... ( Pflugerville lost to South oak cliff State semis by 4...)... also played several other 4a and private schools in FW tour... so its not Joubert Fault that the bigger school want play us...

It ain't always the size of the dog in the fight,it's the size of the fight in the dog.I watched Cayuga a couple of times this past week and they could darn sure challenge any of the local schools.You're exactly right about the Lions,the only local 3-a clubs that play with them locally are HJ,Silsbee and Cleveland and they have already played 2 of those.No disrespect to Kountze's club this year but I don't think they have Austin potential like some of the clubs in recent years.Duane will schedule what he needs to get them ready and he will get all they have to give.

    • 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.  
    • The baseball coach has a ton of experience at high school and college level and hasn’t done anything for I think around 7 years now,it’s just something that the higher ups live with.And there has been talent come through that he hasn’t done anything with!
