Do you think they will make the playoffs? If so, tell us why.

when was the last time they were even .500 in dist, and if its because of the dude they have thats like 7 foot  ;D ;D

[Bulldog1]

They have only lost 1 or 2 players from this past year

[east texas bb]

5 teams in district right and 3 teams make the playoffs.  Pretty good odds.

I just know that if the 6'6" and 6'10" kids would move to Woodville, we'd push them and make them a WHOLE lot better than they are now. If Colmesneil ever gets a coach who cares about basketball and knows the game better, they could be decent.

[no-look]

What is the main sport at Colmesneil? Seems you dont hear much from them....

[eagleswoodville#1]

Id say, if you talk to them, it would definitely be baseball. They have a decent program over there.

[/quote] there aint anything you can do with the 6'10 kid he just dont have any coordination he just aint a basketball player

[Bulldog1]

They have a pretty decent point guard

[east texas bb]

Colmesneil has been good in baseball in the past.  They have a few state titles in baseball I believe.
If they have a 6'10" kid in 1A, even if uncoordinated could play a big role.  He will have a 8-10 inch difference than anyone else (considering height and arm length).  He should be able to help on blocked shots, altered shots, rebounds, put back ins, he dosent have to be a post that has moves like Hakeem.
But if they do not have the guard play and the ability to get the ball down the court, it will not make much difference.  I dont know what there guard situation looks like.
IMO the district finishes like it did last year with WS, Broaddus, Zavalla.  I believe Broaddus wins district this though, WS gets 2nd, and Zavalla 3rd.

[/quote]i seen them play last year and the big kid was so bad that it was hurting them it was like they were playing 4 on 5 and there pg couldnt dribble, he was dribbling off his feet, knees, and even face a few times... 

[whsalum]

I don't know anything about Colmesneil this season but kids at that age can make a huge progression in one year.It all depeds on how much they keep a ball in their hands.I do know his, in 1-a basketball if you have a decent point guard and a 6'10" post player who is even average you'll be pretty decent.

[eagleswoodville#1]

They will be decent. The heighth of the 6'10" kid plays a huge roll on Colmesneils team. He isnt as terrible as Waterboy is saying. Teams kill them as a result of overwhelming speed. Theyre extremely slow. If they get in basketball shape, theyll be decent.

6'10" and speed doesn't compute at the high school Class A level.  Now, if you have a potential "Bill Walton" on your hands then that's a different story. :D

[/quote]what are they good at, the last time they did anything was in the 80's when they won state in baseball a few times but since than you could prob count there playoff appearances on one hand

[eagleswoodville#1]

Neil Hennigan took them to state two or three times in the early 2000's. Might've won it one of those years. Not sure. I know they went. They have a very storied and one of the most successful 1A programs in the state. So, in response to your question, baseball. They're good at baseball down there. And have been for awhile.

[east texas bb]

Agree eagleswoodville1, they have been known for some good baseball, just like Woodville.  The coach was Sherriff Hennigens son, correct?  Sherriff Hennigen passed away a few years back if Im right, but I heard alot of good things about him.

[/quote]So, Water Boy, what is your real beef? 

[dmac]

I think it is a little early for a critique on this year's team.  They have a coach who knows the game and definitely cares about the program.  WB21, you need to NOT single out any player.  You obviously have some other issue other than the basketball program and/or players at Colmesneil High School.
