NHS83LU87 Posted April 13, 2011 Report Posted April 13, 2011 Congrats to the players but cannot believe Chris Cunningham is behind any other guard in 20-4A. BE must be wanting to keep all of it's circulation happy.

I never claimed he didn't care or didn't treat them fairly. I don't know him on that level. When I stated he did nothing for the program, I was more referring to winning, the desire to be the best, and the belief that anything is possible. Maybe I was not fair to him in some of my statements, because I only watched his program from a distance while I lived out of the country. All I ever heard from others during that time was that Nederland had plenty of talent, but didn't know how to win.Respectfully.[/quote]

whsalum Posted April 14, 2011 Report Posted April 14, 2011 There will always be differences of opinion but I gotta give some props to 2 small school players.Sells from Woodville and Whittacre from Spurger were 2 of the very best small school players in the area this year.

whsalum Posted April 16, 2011 Report Posted April 16, 2011 Unfortunately not many college prospects in the area this year.Whittacre was a very good high school player but unfortunately he is probably a tweener.He isn't big enough to play the post at the college level and doesn't have the skill set to play outside. Sells was the engine that made Woodville go this season and I would probably have him in my top 10 local players this season.All that being said both were very deserving of recognition for the season they had.
