Is the qb who got hurt going to get to play this year?  I had penciled in a Cleveland vs Silsbee regional final until he went down during football season.  Can't ever count out HJ, but I still think these two meet up to decide who goes to Austin.

I think we should leave HJ out of the conversation this year for regional play. It's alreaqdy over for them, no matter what their history says ;D

I think HJ will upset Cleveland this year once again.

Jammal Ross will not play basketball this season due to his injury sustained during football season.

AAW, that is not confirmed yet. He is keeping his options open at this time. Most of it depends on his doctors. This is still a very good team, but depth will be an issue come playoff time. They really only go 6, sometimes 7 deep, depending in the matchups. One of the bench players receiving considerable minutes is a freshman, but he has played pretty well to this point. If the Indians take advantage of their post players and make their free throws, they will be very hard to beat. Even if Jamaul Ross were to come back, it would be a tall task to get in game shape and be a key contributor. ROLL...TRIBE...ROLL!

I am going off the info I got from his coach, his father, and Jammal himself. Was told he was working towards making sure his knee would be ready for fall football, SFA or McNeese I was told. They were not considering basketball at all. But that was back at the YMBL when I last heard this.

[indian15/16]

That info is all accurate. I think Jamaul just feels better thinking its a possibility. Football is his passion and I think he will rehab and train hard until fall as well. Hate it for that kid. Stuff like that should never happen to a senior. It's a shame.

Rumor has it that cleveland had a handfull of athletes withdrawl from school this semester...a couple were very promising...is that accurate?

[BADSANTA]

IMO Cleveland always has great athletes. I have seen times where kids quit, fail, or drop out. What's up with that? They should have been to state a few times in basketball and football.

All I know of about athletes withdrawing is one of our highly touted freshman transfered at the end of the semester to Liberty. His aunt that he lives with moved and that was that. I can tell you Liberty's football team just got better when he did.
