How will we be? I'm sure we wont be as good. We lose 2 great possible All State players in Henderson and Merian. Higgins is gonna be a star and Gee returns at the PG position as a JR. He is already good and will only get better. Who will be the 5 next year? Johnson? Does he have potential to be any good? Don't know much about him. We will be lacking size. Do we have any coming up from the Freshmen and JV squads? Can we make it back to the Boro in the next 3 years?

I expect them to way down. Like 24-9, 13-3 in district. Prolly have to play away in sub state game. Lol.

 

On a serious note, they will be down. You can't replace those guys in one season. The team will be as good as Gee is. Higgins is their most athletic returning player. He's talented but still will only be sophomore, he could be a Henderson type player before he's done. Johnson will be as good as any other teams in the district. If green stays they'll contend for title again.

 

As for the district. It'll be very tough. AC, CC, central and Clinton have 4/5 of their lineups back. Powell loses Feilds, halls loses some solid bball players. Karns loses Sibley and a couple others. Gibbs was real young, and they can put it in the hole. I'd go out on a limb and say 11-5 gets u a piece of the championship. JMO.

Not trying to start an argument, but Higgins will be WAYYYYY better than Henderson before he's done. He is 6'3" and growing. Higgins should easily be D1. So OR has Gee, Mitchell, Higgins, an incredible shooter in freshman Deandre Gibson, freshman Anthony Gibson is a future star, and just maybe another big man not enrolled yet. Undefeated freshman team (only one game within 30 points). Next year, it will take a while, but they will be very good. The year after, state contenders.

 

Gotta fix this double post thing. Any suggestions?

Didn't say he wouldn't be as good as Henderson, said he could be that "type" of player. Could be great, we will just have to see how he works and how he develops. Also, with all that talent he may never get to be that guy, u know what I mean? They definately need a big man in that type of offense. Green loves running offense thru the post. Will still be best around here for several years to come.

Who was the real tall white kid on the freshmen team? Will he be any good?

I also think Higgins will be a lot better then Jaylin. Don't get me wrong Jaylin was great, but he really never did develop a really good jump shot. Basically was just a great slasher who was great at driving to the rim. I think Higgins has a chance to be in the mold of a Sibley. Slasher, but can also pull up from 20 feet and knock 'em down.

Ahh, the "diamond in the rough". Joey Kocak, I think he will be very good in time, but not in basketball. Just started playing football in the 8th grade and his football ceiling is very high. Just a reserve on the freshmen team, but is learning rapidly. He is about 6'5 220 as a freshman. I think as a junior he will get quality time. I like the thought of a 6'7, 270 offensive tackle or DE.

Oh nice. Thanks. I saw a pic of the frosh team (basketball) and i saw him and i said to myself "dang, who is that kid?" looked huge in the picture. Good to hear!

    • Has BA landed any cornfed cowboys to block up front?
    • Yea I agree I will say tho I was a big “ v “ fan if an  opening ever did happen I think it would’ve been good to see him have a shot coming from a power house like Oakland. I’m sure he’s learned a lot from Kevin.  I bet he would bring a really good offense scheme IMO But after all this I just dunno anymore.  Whatever happens with the rumors an such if it did come to and opening I think this messes it all up.  The board members dreams are slowly slipping away now. I haven’t lived there for awhile I just hear what I hear, but my question is would there be any good potential candidates?? That’s why I don’t understand why people want b s out so bad who else could do any better ?? IMO there’s nothing attractive about it? As I stated earlier I went to the last game last year and taking a leak in a porta Potty is pretty sad and still nothing being done they say .. 
    • I have a sophomore that can do 177 (preferred) or 192. Sent you an email.
    • speaking of board members how can a man get arrested 12 days ago and still be head coaching a team in TC school system? looks like your right about the tc board members. I bet it would be different if they had a kid on the team
