Any truth to the rumor that Yates may be dropping to 2A in the next re-alignment so they can win another classification and get a shot at Kountze?  :D
[/quote] Actually, I think Yates would prefer Kountze move up to 3-A and take care of all the local area 3-A wannabee champs.  :D
[/quote]

Why do you hate on 3A so much?
Is it because Silsbee has been kicking most of the 4A and 5A butts for yrs :D

I have heard that the Miami Heat want Lamar to move up to the NBA so they can handle them too.

Yeah, ok Dove.  Just wait until the Panthers have to play Chicago Simeon.

Good, solid comparison between HJ and Yates.  HJ has had one transfer in the last six years and Yates had 40 this past fall.
[/quote]

Yes it is true that since players found out that Silsbee was going to be in the same district as HJ recruitment numbers have dropped.  These players were well aware of how few and far between district and state titled would become.  And since that last good recruiting class graduated in 2007 that has become the case.  Many would be HJ recruits have since ended up at Yates.

On reputation alone with the UIL, Yates can play in whatever classification that they would like to.  So, they dropped down to 3-A for a couple of years to cement their record (in an "Off-recruiting year") but they expect to be back up to 4-A or 5-A when the 6th level comes in.  Don't worry about Yates; they have a way of getting theirs. 8)

Every starter on the 2007 team came up through the HJ little dribblers program

Does someone from Silsbee want to really talk about move ins????

I dont think Mr. Parkers presence would be required to generate a victory.

Sure we have to get a few too but our budget limits us to our immediate area. We haven't gone global thus no maroon on the map.

Thats the good thing about (us) armchair experts, we can think ahead. We leave the actual playing time thinking to the coaches and players :D
[/quote] ha ha yeah youre right us as fans are allowed to look ahead just coaches and players don't need to

Many of you all have forgotten, that Silsbee has always been a top competitor. We battled Port Arthur Lincoln and Baycity  every year when we were 4aaaa. we consistently ranked in the top ten and made it to Austin several times along with going to regionals so many times can't count. Port Arthur Lincoln had talent like Yates every year.

[/quote] Wow! My junior high which was a feeder school for Wheatley lost one game in (one)3 year span. WE were so good that we scrimmaged high schools. I bet thats why Wheatley is still winning  ::)

[/quote]True that Lincoln and Sislbee didn't have move-ins back then, but neither did the competition from Houston. 20 years ago, teams simply suited up the kids who lived in their districts (the way it was intended to be)!

All recruiting was left up to colleges ONLY!!

[/quote]LOL!!!! Not true Abe!!!! Kids been changing addresses for[color=red] YEARS [/color]in the cities.  It wasn't a big deal back then and very easy to do. Yall were babies back then and weren't old enough to read the papers ;) Hmmm! Actually, in small towns too. Football back in 30's was full of "transfers" in those small towns.

But not 40 each fall.

LMBO......It is obvious that Blue Dove does not know anything about basketball. I played in college and we were required to run cross country. I even saw a posting where he said that Johnson was the only person on HJ's team that could create his own shot. LOL. Has he ever watched Bosha play? He is the compete package. He can shoot, he can drive, he is a great perimeter defender and he can hit the 3. Either Blue Dove is blind or he has never attended a HJ game. Wow!!!!! ;)

[/quote]Big Girl, I'm really don't want to get into a debate with you on this because it will come off in a way you & some others on here  really don't want to hear.  Some kids can do things in high school that they can't get away with in other basketball venues. Most of these kids need to be in a gym working than spending time running track.
As far a s Bosha, you can tell he has worked on his individual skill set and has gotten even better.
I've seen HJ players since they were  Little Dribblers.  ;)

Sorry, but Bosha is not the complete package...Good player, but he has a few areas to improve upon...The fact that he did not lead his team to at LEAST a SECOND place finish IN 3A, tells a tale.  He definitely has the tools, but he needs to work hard this spring and summer....Trust me when I tell you...NOT the COMPLETE package.
