benchcoach

Slatten forced to resign or lose teaching job to. White Co. runs off one of their own and keeps Hess who lives in Cookeville. Sad day for White Co. Material slim and following Whited to much to bear. Sad because some good talent on the way. Like to have seen Slatten have a chance with some better material. His players this year played as good as they could and were competitive most of the time.

Any update on Hacker ??? Our prayers are with her.

Hess's record against good teams is pitiful. He has had the talent even without all the players that have left. Ask the girls that were on this team how they enjoyed playing for Hess, especially the seniors. White Co. has gone through this stuff long enough. Players that don't like the coach will not put out their best effort. By the way. Has Sparta girls ever been embarassed with a 41 point loss ?

Hess should be gone with all the girls that have quit in his coaching stint at White Co. Two starters were missing from last years team. Talking about getting rid of the boys coach who is a home town boy. and done a pretty job considering the material. The girls have been loaded with material since Hess came on the scene. His record looks good on paper, most victories were against weak teams. He also lives in Cookeville, has no social life in Sparta at all. Haley needs to wake up.

Nobody will come within single digits of Shelbyville. Remember you heard it first from benchcoach. Agree with other posts tourney is weak.

White Co. will have the best talent again !!! We won the district this year with two starters quitting. Hacker would have been our leading scorer if Hess would have gave her playing time. What a waste of talent !!!!! Understand Hess is trying to get a boys job. Good luck.

I'll take anybody that will live in White Co. and have some rapport with the fans and citizens of Sparta. Something needs to be done now !!!!

Been watching Hess team for four years and we can't get the ball inbounds. I have never seen a team struggle with that one play so much. We don't seem to know how to screen. Worst defeat for White Co. that i have ever seen. Four out of last five games we lost by 19, 16, 11, and 41!!!! White Co. deserves better !!!!! Way to much talent for the results. Coach of the year should have been Choke of the Year !!!! Our fans won't support him as you could see by our district and region crowds. Something needs to be done !!!!

Coach Hess coach of the year!!!! What a joke!!!! Should have been choke of the year. Never seen a team erode so fast. Embarassing for the fans of White Co. to watch. Talent being wasted!!!!!

What a coaching job by Hess in this one. White Co. starts out good, then he subs after 2 min and 45 seconds and we never got back in the game. Best players were on the bench most of the game. Played very little defense. I just don't understand it. Same old stuff, talent being wasted. It's a joke for this team to get beat that bad.

Warriorette mom. I believe my opinion is as good as yours. I respect yours, please respect mine. Hess has hurt our program since he started. Numerous players have left our team since he's been here. Hacker and King the latest. I pull for our girls as hard as you do, but I will never respect Hess. There are some horror stories that you don't know about,

If White Co. wins a game in the district , it will be a big upset. The game at Oakland was a wonderful win, but it was a big upset. Their talent level is much better than ours. White Co. man all the way. But get real. These boys are playing about as good as they can play. Like it or not, Slatten deserves some of the credit.

At least he would spend his money in White Co. and live here. Knows more about the game for sure.

90 Warrior, who in our district can beat Shelbyville ? 8AAA and 7AAA is as weak as i have ever seen it. Shelbyville stands alone. If White Co. can win the district, which they should at home, they could possibly make it to the state because it puts them in different bracket than Shelbyville. White Co. is my team all the way, but in our region, Shelbyville stands alone. Don't forget Fuller is back.

Lebanon and all the Mufressboro schools are better than we are. Our upset of Oakland was amazing. Our boys have improved since last year, but our talent is not close to these teams i mentioned. Anyone that is not blind to the situation knows there is a big talent difference. Slatten isn't our only problem for not winning. Get real !!!!!

We fouled Hayes three times after the 3 point shoot. Get in the game. Hess can't coach and he has been loaded the last three years. Everybody's on Slatten all the time and we should be worried about Hess. Hess has had the talent and Slatten has had very little. White Co. deserves better.

White Co. should have won handily. If it's a close game, our coach won't let us win. Been watching 4 years and we still can't get the ball inbounds. We also foul their best foul shooter and she makes 6 in a row. Talent is being wasted.

White Co. won by 10 at Warren Co. Can't see it being closer than that at home.

District 7AAA is as weak as i have ever seen it. White Co. is by far the best team in our district even missing two starters that quit since last year. 8AAA with the exception of Shelbyville is empty. White Co. and Shelbyville should make it to the sub-state.

White Co. girls made a great comeback last night. Called timeout with 42 seconds behind by 2. Came out and was trying to go for the last shot. I don't know what he was thinking. Cookeville girls were shook, time to attack. Should have pressured fullcourt like wedid for last two minutes. Sparta girls and fans deserve better. Same old stuff.

I would be Hess's first customer if he starts selling real estate.

White Co. has better talent than all the teams that we have played. 16 & 4 means nothing if you have all the fun of winning gone. Put back Hacker and King back on the team and noboby beats us.

Any girl that can play for a coach that screams the whole game like a mad man has got to be pretty tough or deaf. Our fans don't even get into the game for that reason. Close game last night towards the end, and you could hear a pin drop in the gym. Ever wonder why? Most fans are sick of the screaming and hollaring. Embarassing to most fans. Girls deserve better.

Been around ball all my life. Never seen 8aaa and 7 aaa so weak. Shelbyville with Fuller best team in districts by far. Winning twenty games does not make a good team. As a whole girls basketball in the state is down. Just one of those years.

District 7AAA as weak as i have ever seen it. White Co. should't have any trouble with Riverdale. Talent level not even close.
