Thank you Streak One

Still don't have this PM thing down. Thanks for the appropriate decision/action yesterday evening.

Maybe one more explanation of the PM process in full detail please.
I can read 30 pages of blueprints and layout a new building or city street but can't seem to follow 4 sentences of direction and navigate 6 lines of a keyboard.

Big thanks concrete17

Top 5 San Jose teams ever (or the last 15 years at least)

In the spirit of the thread about Sacramento area teams, thought I'd start a similar discussion about San Jose teams. My knowledge is limited to late 90's-present, so please feel free to fill me in on older teams as well.

1. Mitty (2011-13): Basically the Aaron Gordon years. Supporting cast wasn't all the way there but what AG did in his career was historic and he has to be considered the best high school basketball player in San Jose's history. Back to back D2 state titles in '11 and '12. They played a national schedule in '13 so took a few losses (27-6 overall record) but went through Norcal's first ever Open Division and fell to Mater Dei in the final.

2. Mitty (2007-08): The Drew Gordon years... but in actuality this team was loaded with 5 D1 seniors in '08. Gordon, Collin Chiverton (St. Mary's; CCSF; Eastern Washington), Angelo Colario (USF), John Adams (Lehigh) and Enoch Andoh (Bucknell). Fell short in the D2 state game to Mater Dei twice but pretty much owned Norcal for 2 straight years.

3. Andrew Hill (2001): Jayson Obazuaye (CCS all time leading scorer, 4 year starter at Colorado) led a really good public school team. Obazuaye's junior year but the team didn't go as far his senior year and lost a couple key seniors. Taj Stone at point, Jamal Kimble at Center, junior Derek Alcantara on one wing, 6'5 sophomore Reggie Smith was a budding star in his own right... this team had a crazy talented, exciting starting 5. They put on a show every game. Won CCS and fell to a LOADED Chuck Hayes-led Modesto Christian in Norcal D1 semi-finals.

4. Oak Grove (2007): Finished 28-2 after falling to Mcclymonds by 1 point in overtime for the Norcal D1 final. Only other loss was to a good Piedmont Hills team by 1 point also. Kelly Kaigler and Tyree McCrary (neither played D1, but both "should" have) led a deep, talented group that a San Jose public school may never see the likes of again. Went a little farther and probably had a better record than the Hill team above, but I saw both and Hill beats these guys 9 out of 10 games.

5. Oak Grove (2002): Won the Mt. Hamilton division in the best year I can recall, league was loaded with good teams and D1 players. Also won CCS D1 for the first time in school history. Led by 6'6 seniors Anthony Williams (Grambling State) and Aquil Hall-Bey. Also had CCS sophomore of the year John Williams (San Jose State), plus a deep overall roster of great athletes. Fell to Sharper-Freeman team from St. Mary's-Berkeley in Norcals.

Decided to keep it only "San Jose" teams for my list, but if you expand to "South Bay," add in some of the late 90's early 2000's St. Francis teams that were LOADED and factors in CCS, Norcal and State just about every year. Also, would have to include Palo Alto's Jeremy Lin-led state champ team from 2006. Or to go a little further South, you could include a team like the Santa Cruz state championship team from 2005. Looking back at the Sacramento list, they definitely included Sac-adjacent cities, so all of these guys should be in the discussion too.

Who will be the "Kings of Kezar"

With the Bruce fading in the past and SI taking that trophy home this year ( yes I know BB is still in play, I am projecting a little)

Who will be the "Kings of Kezar"? I wonder if Colehenry will actually root for the Crusaders in his dislike of the Cats out weight him.

Rmbr has always been fairbalanced and Jordsn does come through at the end.

Sorry , but I am hanging with 1DNA. We always want the purple and gold to win at BB, so why not on the Grid Iron.

I heard some SI grads were treating at Merced with Breskfast? I am crashing....good friending trash talking is better served why I am not buying (LOL)

Enterprise over Paradise in a shootout

Enterprise took advantage of a late second quarter fumble by Paradise to go up 19 - 12 with less than a minute to go in the first half. Paradise responds with a four play 80 yard drive to tie it 19 - 19 at halftime. The teams switch TD's back and forth until Paradise scores three TD's in a row to take a 47 - 33 lead. Enterprise scores, Paradise fumbles, Enterprise scores, Paradise fumbles again and Enterprise scores to go up 55 - 47 with just over a minute on the clock and Paradise left with one time out. Paradise scores on a 79 yard third down screen pass to tie it up with 45 seconds to go. Two point conversion good! Overtime!

Paradise scores a TD in two plays and kicks the extra point. Enterprise scores on their first play and completes a two point conversion pass to end the game.

Final: Enterprise 63 - Paradise 62. In 28 years of teaching high school band this was one of the most fun and exciting games I have ever attended.

Just imagine if Ray Jackson would have stayed at College Park, Kemper could have built around him and College Park would be running over every body....BUT, tonight Ray Jackson ran for 196 yards in the first half which included runs of 52,17,40,23 and 8, but were behind Concord 14-13 at the Half....Now Jackson got thrown for looses of seven, eight, and four yards while the Minute men were keeping the pressure on the Eagle offense.. Now with three minutes gone in the first quarter, Concord struck first on a two yard Tidwell run and in the second quarter, a Eagle pass attempt turned into a fumble and a concord defender scooped up the ball and took off on a 52 yard run which put concord ahead of CVC 14-13....Now Jackson scored on a 17 yard scamper and before that he was on a 52 yard gallop to setup the 17 yard score.. three minutes later, Jackson was off and running on a 50 yard sweep....
All hell broke loose in the third quarter, as Jackson scored on runs of 8,7 and 39 yards and Akeal Lalaiand topped the scoring for the night with a 76 yarder and CVC was ahead 42-14.....
Now the Eagle defense kept Tidwell from breaking out and was holding him to two and three yards at the most and the eagle defense put a stop to 13 pass attempts.and thru the Minutemen running backs for looses of 3,4,2,6 and 4 yards as Concord could never get untracked....
For the Minutemen, they ran up 17 first downs aided by five penalities , they committed three penalities for 15 yards and punted twice. and never fumbled....They ran for 128 yards on 36 carries and passed 27 times, hitting on 13 for 142 yards.
Fro CVC, they had only eight first downs, they had seven penalities for 80 yards, never punted and never fumbled but intercepted Concord two times...Now in the first quarter, the Eagles went for a 4th and 2 and failed and this set up a Minutemen TD on the 32...CVC gained 368 yards on the ground on 38 carries and passed only three times for three yards.
In the early going, it looked like CVC was having a hard time getting started, but that ended fast when Jackson struck twice....
