freeze 1914 Posted February 21, 2013 Report Share Posted February 21, 2013 [quote name="Stevenash" post="1377345" timestamp="1361478579"][quote author=freeze 1914 link=topic=109582.msg1377335#msg1377335 date=1361477389]I'm not saying HJ is a recruiting school, Im saying its the same for Yates. If my son is a good basketball player and I move to Houston and I want my son in a good program we're going to Yates. Does that make them a recruiting school. And the kid that left HJ would of held HJ back. I coached him this summer.[/quote]Doesnt matter if he would have held them back. YOUR point was about kids coming to HJ from Beaumont REGARDLESS of whether or not they contributed to basketball and I gave you a reverse example. And if you HONESTLY believe there is the slightest similarity between who comes to Yates to play and who comes to hJ to play, your elevator does not go all the way to the top.[/quote]All I'm saying is, you guys (HJ SUPER FANS) make this big problem about Yates recruiting, but if it was HJ none of you guys wouldnt say a thing about, it would still be GO HAWKS. And the kid that left HJ went to a TAPPS school. Not like he ran to Ozen, Central or even WB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

freeze 1914 Posted February 21, 2013 Report Share Posted February 21, 2013 Yates has the proclaimed best basketball program in Houston and producing all americans. Coming out of middle school where you think I would want to go if it was made possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BLUEDOVE3 Posted February 21, 2013 Report Share Posted February 21, 2013 Yates is a public school that plays national competition. This teams gets a lot of exposure from the national media. pLUS, the kids want to play against the best. To play the best, most kids would have to attend an expensive east coast prep school. JY is the closest thing in this area to a prep school. That in itself is the drawing card for JY in its present form. The players adhere to the rules. They transfer, play a season of JV if they come from another district. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prime Prep is a Allstar high school team[/quote]Is Yates not also a HS All-Star team??[/quote]One could claim that.I spoke with a person last night who is close to the Yates program and he was quite forward with an answer to a question I had for him. I asked how many of the current Yates varsity players came up through the Yates feeder middle schools. He said of the 15 on varsity, only 6.I do not know how HISD works as far as middle schools and where those kids move on to high schools.[/quote]That confirms my accusation/suspicion that i made earlier that over 1/2 of their team is from other zones including towns/states/countries/continents.

Bobcat1 Posted February 21, 2013 Report Share Posted February 21, 2013 I haven't watched Yates play and I would guess neither have 85% of the people who commented on this thread - that being said I am hoping for an HJ win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Other schools who compete on the same level so not have those advantages and we want to be 'fair', right BD3? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
