I definitely tend to agree with you TJ (if for no other reason than I am a short guy with no "moves" or "skillz" other than shooting ) However, I would be willing to give the kid the benefit of the doubt on this one. Suppose he was referring to defense, passing, ballhandling? These too are important fundamentals. Not to say that Flatt is deficient in these areas, just that this guy might have thought he was.

Warpig- Just out of curiosity, why exactly are you opposed to drug testing? Surely if a player is "clean" he or she has nothing to worry about. Besides that, I have heard people call testing an invasion of privacy. My opinion is, playing on a school team is a privilege... NOT a right. The benefits of having a test system in place (fair play, health of athletes, etc.) far outweigh the minor inconvenience of giving a blood sample, filling a cup, or any other method of obtaining a sample.

Hey Nick, who else that you know of quit the team? I was just curious.

Well, it is true that a few players quit the team, for what reason I'm not exactly sure. As for the team, it looks to be a rebuilding year, to put it mildly. More than two wins is a stretch, with best bets being against county rivals Mt. Juliet and Wilson Central. The desire and motivation is there, and Coach Brown and his assistants can get the job done, but the depth is just not there this year. This year's junior class has a few players who will make an impact down the line, but for now, it will be tough going for the Blue. A word to the wise, however: this team will fight you down to the last second. They certainly have the desire to pull off a few upsets, and if things fall into place, the Rutherford Co. powers would be wise to watch their backs. Hope this helps.
