kyle is too small to be a presence in SEC basketball. he leads well and is acutely aware. football should do him well. basketball rounded him out well in HS but he would end up being a small version of shelby moats for coach stallings.

lady wave grab two wins today. defense lookin good! and portland not lookin too bad either

lots of teams play this weekend...whats the schedules look like? 

season starts up tonight. gallatin has rossview at home. i might need to take back what i said about them being higher than 7, but ill stick with it for now. just a bit worried about the defensive effort

free cheese dip or guacamole dip at el alteno in springfield if youre heading to the game tonight. (with purchase)

surprised to see SC fans still talking crazy on the football page. i thought after the thumping gallatin gave em they would all quit and head to the basketball page.

ghs will be higher than 7. theyll host a first rd district game id bet.

careful chick, youll get a bezoar...

its still posted on TSSAA so i suppose not.

again, let's get back to real stuff. no more crap about whats been done and over with. how will MJ look after losing so many seniors? whats up w WC, how are they looking w john? will SC be able to battle at all? lebanon and gallatin as well.

hhs pos is posted to bulletin board of tssaa so prob not. speculation

see 9aaa post

before amy there was clancy. before clancy, if i understand correctly, there was this coach. shes back.

parents make terrible coaches for more reasons than that. i remember hearing parents screaming for the team to guard an opposing player. in high school girls bball there are players, and then there are girls that can PLAY. the strategy was to leave her open bc she wont hit one anyway. parents dont have a clue when it comes to schemes, planning, practicing, anything.

Hville asst goes to portland and hville hc resigns. admin is stepping down to take cravens phys ed spot and coach them. or maybe not. so they need an AP and an eng teacher, and possibly a coach or asst as well. they should hire a coach that can take those parents by the short hairs. theyre outta control.

can we get all this coaching crap behind us and talk about the talented girls in this league? of course i hope for a big year from gallatin with briscoe and duncan being seniors.

At Portland, you get what you pay for. Cant afford a good coach, dont argue about your results.

how does a school go about "affording" a coach? how much does a coach get paid and how much should a coach, say at Portland, get paid? From my understanding, a coaches stipend is a percentage of his teachers salary, all set by the county BOE. If I'm wrong here, or perhaps not in the entire loop, let me know.

PrettiCute, over and back: you must have both feet AND the ball across the half line before going back is not allowed. in the matter of a throw in, the entire floor is available, regardless, up until the point where poessesion is in the offensive court completely. example: throw it in and players jumps for it from the front court and perhaps lands with ball and two feet in back court (okay) or lands with one foot in front court and one in back court (still okay). you may have already known this but just in case.

1> if youve ever reffed a game, you know its a lot like work. some people just cant (or wont) do the job. reffing at the high school level is not the highlight of their lives, id bet. some of them dont give two BLEEPS about it. its a bummer, but true. you can especially tell this by how girls games are reffed vs boys games.

2> youre right, some officials have it out for people. idk why. this rule goes both ways: dont be a jerk. we all love the game and should respect each others point of view. i watched a tourney game this year where a coach got a T in the first quarter after the ref had been eyeing him for the entire quarter. it was unwarranted and wierd. i was sitting right behind the bench and nothing was said to warrant it. i am also not affiliated with that coach or team.

3> players who are 4 ft can foul. idk what the circumstances were regarding this foul youre reffering to, but it couldve been a charge. maybe it was a shot attempt and then a push on the rebound if he didnt have position.getting bopped on the head doesnt constitute a foul specifically.

4> good point. idk, but id like to find out. i think its this simple: buy your gear, take an open book ref test, and BOOM, youre a ref in tssaa. not much regarding "training" but you might have to go to camps and a little bit of evaluation occassionally. how are the refs chosen for dist tourney, region tourney, and state tourney? maybe they are voted or chosen by fellow refs. this creates a "butt kissing" society in the work place. not good.

this post is coming off of some very controversial calls in the ncaa tourney. the point about the UT call that is a good one is not that it wasnt a foul. the point is, should the refs be calling fouls, LIKE THAT, at this point in the game?

i also apologize for any grammatical errors.

of course, put rules in place for all schools under TSSAA to have a coach that also teaches full time at the school. no coaching if all youll do is coach. and no non-faculty assistants.

bah. Let's just go to one, and only one, state champ.

close to his old assistant jason shelton. thatll be good to have coach patton near familiar faces

not surprising. hope they stay in-house, (kari goodwin?)

Does anyone have the schedule for this jamboree?

I don't see us giving up 52 points. MJ has a powerful offense but we won't allow that many points. I think this could be a shootout because we will be able to run on the Bears.

highlight this post. paste it to a wall in the locker room and read it again friday night at 11pm.

Gallatin had better be ready this Friday night. Springfield is picked right behind Henry Co to be tops in their district. With a lot of experience and speed in the backfield, the Green Wave will have to do a good job wrapping up and getting to the point of attack. Farmer, Young, and Dickerson are all fast! The line is big with the Socey twins and Sommers. This will be a tough game!!

If Gallatin intends to tackle the way they did against WC it'll be an ugly loss.

Does anyone know if Shelbyville is having their team camps this year? These camps have long been a showcase for some of the best girls' basketball in the state and I haven't seen any information about them this year, either on here or on the TSSAA bulletin board. Any info would be appreciated.

Pretty sure it's goin on since our squad is going. June 5-8. There should be another sometime after. Think it may be $75 a kid. Might wanna call Shelbyville Central HS for details.
