I recall saying that H-J has trouble with athletic teams and some didn't believe me.  First Central, Then WO-S, then finally Silsbee.  The Hawks will need to do some tweeking before the playoffs start because I have a feeling you'll see Silsbee again or maybe even Yates.  You want to avoid the same kind of result like tonight.

Yes athletic teams are difficult to deal with - fortunately Central wasn't athletic last year.

Nothing - just living in the past & recalling HJ's win over Central last year that conjured up some good memories.  We weren't supposed to hang with yall but actually forced the action & won the game.  Nice to see the little guy win.

HJ played the 4th like their season depended on it. Silsbee played the 4th as if thier defense had already got on the bus to go home. Great win but must play a complete game. Nice play by HJ as well. Cant wait for the second match up!

I have never agreed more with a statement you have made BS!  The Tigers defense was changed a little in the second half by the refs seeming to call the game a little tighter but in that fourth quarter the Tigers lacked in some of rotations that they had been getting to earlier.  The Hawks started hitting shots and the Tigers made some bad decisions with the ball as well.  Not taking away from a great effort that quarter by the Hawks but this has been a problem for the Tigers in the past.  They have built big leads and seem to ease up and those leads dwindle.  This team is best when they play with that intensity and fire like they played with in that first half.  That was by far the best I have seen from my Tigers this year,  especially in the half court defense.  They didn't let HJ's shooters get good looks.  Congrats guys on a good win but next time lets play solid for all 4 quarters.

First time in a loonnngggg time I've witnessed Silsbee flat out punk HJ. It's like they slapped HJ and dared them to swing back. Silsbee is twice as good as Hj this year so don't let that comeback fool ya. It'll be another 10yrs before Hj beat Silsbee again in Basketball on the Varsity level. Silsbee farm system is loaded....lol

    • naw, maaaaybe 7, definitely not 8 deep.  today im avoiding sitting by #10s parents, had to move away yesterday.   "put my son back in jub, put my son back in"  and then crying on every little touch of someone.    lets ball out today ktz!    
    • Very close game until the 2nd half (mostly the 4th) when Orangefield came unraveled. Worse defensive effort I have seen out of the Bobcats in three years. This team has to get back on D and quit getting beat over the top when pressing. Offensively, non ball handlers continually turn it over and their shot selection is poor. Basic basketball, such as: defensive hustle, boxing out, and taking care of the basketball are the areas the Bobcats need to work on most. Whitmire will get them on point, but he shouldn't have to coach effort at the Varsity Level.  We'll be at McNeese this Friday night at 6pm.
    • I don’t benefit from it, that’s not my area.  But the average cost to imprison someone is around $15k per year (on average in the US) and capital cases cost somewhere between $1.5-$3M with over half being overturned or reduced to life in prison anyway.  These numbers may be inflated since the last report I read but I’m sure it would be on both sides and higher on the DP side if anything. So what’s the point?  We feel better because we got to return the favor on someone (hopefully) who committed a heinous crime?  And I don’t know I can say we have “complicated” it. Which appeal should we cut out?  Our justice system has a pecking order and we have higher courts for a reason. When we are about to impose the ultimate judgment, should we cut steps that other cases have to save a buck?  Or do we not pay for an indigent person’s experts at the trial court level because it’s too expensive? Or do we just lock them up and throw away the key (unless we later find out they weren’t actually guilty, in which case we have a key and a life we haven’t unjustly ended) and save a ton of money?  Seems to me to be an obvious solution but I’m more of a pragmatist.
    • 1 thing for certain. Coach Earned 3 more years to figure it out lol
