You might recall that they came VERY close to it a couple of months back.

Oh yeah...they flip-flopped on it so fast that I had forgotten about it.

Yates isn't a school most patents would drive their kids 20miles to attend unless he was a basketball star. Yates has 17 kids waiting on transfers. 14 are for basketball.

Yall do realize Yates' have players who do graduate from college!! Obviously its more than just basketball they teach over there ;)

Wow!!!!!! Really?!?!?!?!?!?

That's such a rare thing. I've never heard of a high school who had kids graduate from college.

That's flipping crazy man!

::)

[BLUEDOVE3]

Nah,  its just "flipping crazy" when Yates is being mentioned as a basketball factory and and low academic performing school, ONLY!!! Now that's crazy.

I have no clue about their academics. However, the facts regarding their basketball program seem to point towards a lot of kids transferring to play basketball. I'm not accusing them of being recruited bc I have no facts to back me up. Do I think it's fair that anyone in the HISD can transfer there to play bball? No!! But, that is the rule, and nobody has been able to prove (so far) that they are recruiting. To believe a basketball player is transferring to Yates bc of academics is naive, IMO.

Their academics are low! You can look that up! No kids goes to Yates for a D1 scholarship in academics! Truth Hurts son!

Ok, fine. My last comment shows that I agree with you that the kids transfer to Yates for basketball reasons. Maybe you misunderstood what I was saying or maybe I was unclear.
Son? I'm pretty sure I'm older than you, plus I already have a dad.  ;D ;D ;D

Dove- I would be very interested to know how many kids that go to yates and then to a D-1 school actually graduate from a D-a school.  I am gonna bet that percentage is not too impressive.

Now that I have answered your question, perhaps you would prefer to use the entire basketball program as opposed to singling out one person.  Care to bet which program spawned the largest number of college graduates?

I have a very strong feeling that the "list" to which you refer is rather small.

I am talking about basketball players who graduate from college( as opposed to those who go to play D_1 and never finish school) and I can tell you that in the last 15 years, the vast majority of those who played for HJ got a college degree.  Can you say the same for Yates?

I agree! You are older than me and the term "son" has nothing to do with father son relationship. Your maybe too old to understand sir!

I'd be willing to bet HJ does have more kids who could plant okra, cut firewood, shuck peas,  and milk cows than Yates?

YOu are probably right.  At the same time, I will also wager that a lot more of them are gainfully employed/productive citizens as well.  Good thing about those hick HJ kids is that they are taught how to work for income rather than apply for it.

I was waiting out you buddy! Yates kids apply for government assistance is what your saying SteveNash? So you are basically saying they graduate just to apply for a Lone Strar shopping card? WoW!
