  1. With the transfer portal what it is today very few freshmen coming in have much chance to play or make an impact that freshman year. The only one I see remotely playing that first year is Quisenberry and that is highly improbable. Most players will be well served to finish out their senior year enjoy the sports they participate in and the other activities that go along with your senior year. You are only young once and you can't get it back once it is gone.
  2. DCA the favorite if they get all the calls? Boyle just took it to them defensively. They also outrebounded them, shot better, had fewer turnovers, got the 50-50 balls but DCA bigs did have 4 blocks in the game. Now you want to blame it on the officiating. They still have not (EVER) won anything that matters and they deserve to be the favorite. Don't think so.
  3. Please remember that these athletes are first of all football players that just happen to play basketball. They just finished an undefeated season, ranked number one among all classes and 4A champion in football. We would all like to see that carry over in basketball as well. The fact of the matter is they don't always shoot that well and that is why you often see them struggle against a zone. They hustle, play hard and compete. They are usually fun to watch and a team no one really wants to play come tournament time. If they practiced basketball year round like some of the local teams do, I am sure they would shoot better and win more games. Most of these players play 3 sports and represent Boyle really well. You really can't ask for much more. Also we need to see how the season shakes out. No team has won anything yet that matters.
  4. Guy needs to catch and shoot . He is hesitating trying to fake his man and then it's too late. gives the defense a chance to recover. Don't know if he has lost some confidence or just the freshman over thinking. He has good shooting form, quickness and some hops. He just needs to realize that he is open, catch and shoot.
  5. I was at the game and it was amazing that Boyle was down 1 with a little over 2 minutes to go and had the ball. Instead of using the clock to get a great shot, they settled for a quick off balanced shot and one of the DCA bigs rebounded. They scored and Boyle then took another bad shot DCA rebounded and that was the game. Boyle was outrebounded 36 to 20 in the game. Shot 35% and still had a great chance to win. DCA has great talent but I don't se them winning the region.
  6. Whether we want to admit it or not, the 12th region is not that strong from 1 thru 10. Any of these teams can beat each other on a given night. One critical injury can ruin a teams chance come tournament time. I am not disagreeing with any of the comments that I have been reading, it is just a fact. DCA looks like an imposing team on paper, but their results show they are just a good team in a weak region. On the other hand the state has very few really strong teams this year so the 12th is not the only weak region. Starting two bigs like it has been suggested that DCA will do leaves them so vulnerable against a good pressing team. If a team has good 3 pt. shooters the 2 bigs can't guard them out on the perimeter. Another factor can be the location of the districts and regional tournament. Going to be interesting around tournament time.
  7. The only people upset by this are the teams that Boyle are playing. These kids put it all on the line because they want to be the best. By the way the administration is very aware of this. The Superintendents son is the starting center on the Football team. I think the BB/FB players have a lighter lifting schedule on game day. nikeman 49 , your comment is typical of programs not willing to work hard enough on their own, so they try to tear down the one's willing to do so. You probably need to go spread your venom somewhere else. It is not going to work here.
  8. I think it is way to early to pick the starting QB for Boyle next year. You have two good young QB's that already know the system as well as the transfer that will be able to go thru spring practice. I do know that Baylor Murphy is a tough hard nosed football player with the skill set that a good QB needs. It will take someone very good to beat him out. He is a 6'0 180 lb. and will be a Jr. Guy Turner is 6'1 160lb. and will be a soph. Both kids are very athletic and can run and throw the ball. The QB position will not be a problem for the Rebels.
  9. DC is a good team but not great. They appear to be about where they were this time last year. Other teams in the district and region seemed to catch up and pass them as the season progressed. They have to get out of a tough district for them. They have not been able to do that so far. Teams seem to figure them out the second time around and in tourney play. As far as another 6'11 player. I don't think that helps that much, since you can only play one at a time. Don't know where the districts and region tourneys are being held this year. That could also make a difference.
  10. Almost the exact same place that both teams were last year. Boyle with 2weeks practice not shooting well and DC with year round practice winning the first match up. Wait until the second game in Feb. before you crown or discredit either team. Remember what happened last year. See where the "takers" are then.
  11. Boyle has only had a week of practice for many of the kids who also play football. They usually don't play well until up in January. Many schools wish they had that same problem. They will be a tough out come Tourney time.
  12. Boyle was already playing up from 3A numbers to 4A. They were very close and may have 4A enrollment now. Don't think they are going anywhere? I think you can only play up one class from your enrollment.
  13. You are so wrong . Weren't you at the game. It was probably a backward pass and should have been a fumble recovery.
  14. What is this? Fantasy Island or let's Pretend? Grow up and get in touch with the real world!
  15. So what? You only have one football. Go with your best option!
