BADSANTA Posted March 6, 2012 Report Posted March 6, 2012 Where do you see them being ranked and how far can they go in the playoffs with Yates coming in?
Silsbeealum14 Posted March 6, 2012 Report Posted March 6, 2012 Yates losing 9 seniors off this years team, so I think Silsbee and HJ has a good chance at making another run in the playoffs...
BADSANTA Posted March 6, 2012 Author Report Posted March 6, 2012 I think Silsbee is running a factory of talent over there. When you have a starting 5 as good as theirs and a solid bench that can go 4 deep, the sky is the limit. I expect the Tigers to be in Austin next year!
Dick Vitale Posted March 6, 2012 Report Posted March 6, 2012 Don't know about that...Yates' JV could've won 20-4A this year.. ::) ::)....They have two super sophs starting for them this year..They will be good again next season.. Silsbee has a lot of solid returners so they will be able to challenge anyone in 3A as well...It will be very interesting to say the least.

They have two bigs and I know one of the bigs can ball. They are playing JV only because of UIL transfer rules. ;)

Lets be open about this. Silsbee cannot compete against Yates 2012-2013 team.
MBaller#1 Posted March 6, 2012 Report Posted March 6, 2012 You know is was worried about Yates too,but I feel the tigers will be mad and hungry about not getting to Austin,and losing the way they did, with the same group coming back they know what it takes to win and plus no one is talking about how kingwood park basically had Yates beat and let them off the hook. I think Yates is a great program but still very beatable what ever defense kingwood park used may be a blueprint on how to slow Yates down and maybe beat them, I believe Silsbee will welcome that challenge with no problem, if they get there and get that chance they can beat Yates.

BADSANTA Posted March 6, 2012 Author Report Posted March 6, 2012 DV please remember Silsbee has always been very strong basketball school even in 4A. Classification doesn't matter! Yates will be the clear favorite next year and nothing less than a state title will be accepted. You never know what Silsbee has up their sleeves either!

Whenever KP made a run, Yates just pushed the throttle and increased their lead enough to stay out of trouble. Yates missed their 3's and KP hit their 3's.

froom00 Posted March 6, 2012 Report Posted March 6, 2012 I thought Yates appealed to stay and compete in 4a? is that not the case

Lazeek Posted March 6, 2012 Report Posted March 6, 2012 And all of this relates to Silsbee basketball how???
FlyingHawk Posted March 6, 2012 Report Posted March 6, 2012 What's the deal with Chris "Man Man" Elam AAW? Will he be able to play next year? Doesn't he already have 4 years of high school experience?

FlyingHawk Posted March 6, 2012 Report Posted March 6, 2012 Isn't that as long as your not 19 before September 1st?

A former HJ player turned 19 a week after the State Tournament a few years ago and he was eligible.
