nice to see the grace folks showing their class as usual. good job oneida and coach yaden. shouldve had an opportunity to win it at the end tonight but some things you just cant control. i'm looking forward to seeing the indians next year after coach yaden has a year under his belt to work with the team.

star looks like youre out on this limb by yourself. you might want to give it up soon. as has already been pointed out, they didn't schedule any xtra games. they scheduled two games after two other games were canceled. and as has also been pointed out, tssaa reduced the max number of games a team can play, so she actually had less time to break the record than players before her.

a loss is a loss, kid. lets review: scott finishes 4th in their district with a 10-17/5-7 record. oneida finishes 3rd in their district with a 13-14/7-3 record. and the scott people are on the oneida discussion talking bout how bad oneida is? funny.

agree whole heartedly.

well where have all the haters gone the last couple of weeks? i told you all that this team would be capable of beating any team in the district by the post season tournys. i think last night they proved exactly that. congrats to coach yaden & the indians and good luck the next couple of weeks. /popcorneater.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":popcorneater:" border="0" alt="popcorneater.gif" />

scottcountybasketballfan: have you made enough of a fool of yourself yet or are you going to keep hanging around?

some of you need to realize that just because your sons aren't playing doesn't mean that coah yaden has some sort of vendetta against them. he IS trying to put the best five players on the court. didn't torrey slaven and dylan west go into the starting lineup almost immediately after returning from football? give him time. it's a new coach, a completely new style of playing. some nights you're going to look extremely good and some nights you're going to look awful. by the time the post season gets here this team will be able to compete with anyone in the district.

looks like coach yaden is doing a great job so far.

Good luck this season, Oneida!! it takes someone pretty cowardly to get on a message board and talk trash about someone without revealing their identity. coach west is an excellent coach, he has an excellent staff (ALL of them) and some very talented players. sounds like scott county basketball fan is one of those rabble rousers who doesn't have a life so they have to try and make everyone else's miserable too.

i'm not saying oneida should have won the game by any means. trousdale was the better team. they made the plays with the ball in their hands, defensively they shut down oneida's running game and they won the special teams battle. i'm simply pointing out that this was a touch and go ballgame most of the night. some act as though it was never in doubt. how about this IF: if oldfootballplayer had been there to see the game, he might be able to give a bit more educated opinion on south pittsburg being a better team than oneida.

well.

i gotta agree. that little stunt was very bush league. hard to have respect for coaches that pull stunts like that. it takes nothing away from the trousdale kids though. man, what a hard nosed bunch of competitors. this was a great game: smash mouth, war in the trenches, just like we all knew it would be. who is better between south pittsburg and oneida doesn't really matter, but this game was very much in jeopardy throughout. oneida had the ball inside trousdale's one yard line and didn't score (did get a safety a couple of plays later). an interception in the end zone by trousdale. a 4th and 3 deep in trousdale territory with oneida down 20-10 and a player steps offsides. reverse the outcome of those 3 plays, and it's a much different ballgame.

corrected your score for you, and will add this: OHS 27, Hampton 14 Greenback 49, Hampton 7 OHS 50, Greenback 21 comparing scores of common opponents to predict an outcome is foolish. but you seem to enjoy foolish posts, so knock yourself out.

Tyler you had a good game tonight. Hopefully you didn't pay too much attention to those Oneida fellows razzing you from the fence. /mellow.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":mellow:" border="0" alt="mellow.gif" />

did i stumble into a greenback-grace thread by mistake?

Lambert. not just for what he does in the win/loss department and he's definitely good at that, maybe the best defensive mind in East TN at any level. but also because i wouldn't for a second hesitate to entrust my son with him and his staff to help him become a good character young man. PCC isn't just his motto, it's reflected in all the players he has on the field.
