Why HJ Won't See Austin For Several More Years

[BLUEDOVE3]

1. It is in 3-A
2. Jack Yates is in 3-A
3. HJ enrollment will maintain 3-A status
4. Jack Yates' enrollment dropped to 3-A status
5. HJ doesn't have enough balls
6. Jack Yates have plenty of balls
7. The road to Austin goes thru [s]Houston[/s] Jack Yates Senior High

Why do you say "for several  more years"?  Sounds permanent to me.

[stevenash]

Don't be discouraged HJ, for I offer you "hope" and "change".

NEVER UNDER-ESTIMATE THE HEART OF A CHAMPION.  I suspect those comments are cage rattlers as opposed to asnine statements.  Bet you won't get a bite from the HJ staff.

You are right and it is killing them.

You are right Blue dove. HJ's plight is hopeless. That Bosha kid is a crappy player. The 30 points he scored against Friendswood and the 25 points he scored against Nederland were flucks. The Padgett kid cannot play at all neither can Martel and the other players. They can't be good because Ozen beat them by 2 points even though HJ was playing with 6 players and Ozen had about 15 players. Poor HJ whatever will they do?

Hj will be lucky to win 50% of their games this year even though all pre district games will be against 1-a opponents.

[/quote]Please be serious Nash. You know HJ will beat up on all 1-A and 2-A teams they meet in the 2012-213 season. ::)

I don't know why you say that.  After all, your analytical basketball eye and acumen has already determined that the fact that there is only one ball will prove detrimental.  But I can see where you are going with this.  You expect HJ to win all the pre district games and then go winless in district.  That is a distinct possibility.  I am just foolish enough to offer some very compelling odds on that though.  And everybody knows what foolish bets I have put out on this board.

One of my favorite off season quotes is "no championships are won when the seats are empty"...We as sports fans continue to make the mistake that championships are guaranteed based upon returning talent.  The most talented teams don't always win.  Ask Jack Yates this year!  OOOPS, I hope I did not strike a nerve...LOL...We forget that these ball players are 14-18 year old kids who put on these uniforms.  Did we also forget about Phi Slamma Jamma vs. NC State and Georgetown vs. Villanova?

[/quote]Nope, I've already said  HJ will make the playoffs this upcoming season.

And the Miami Heat were supposed to win the championship last year but nobody told Dallas.  It was then suggested that this year, the Heat would walk through the regular season and the playoffs.  It sure doesn't look that way right now.

[/quote] You know Stevie, you really hit deep below the belt with that nasty NC State  reminder  ;D But back to the statement at hand. As far as HJ is concerned, the road leads thru Jack Yates.  They will be better this year than last year.....meaning Yates of course  ;)

Gee, Dove- shouldnt your statement be "as far as all 3-a schools are concerned, the road leads "thru" Jack Yates?  Hint- There is a very good chance that things won't come as easily to their program over the next few years.

[/quote] Its a compliment to the HJ program. We know the program will be in the hunt during playoffs. Its just that Yates will stop that train eventually.  ;D
