R1 sectional should be really good.. North Greene returns 7 starters back from a sub state team and UH returns a lot from a state tournament team.. looks like Greenback and Coalfield will be good again so should be lots of fun.

Well.. you do have a good point there and also players there that are suppose to be at other schools lol.

Is Oneida 2A now?

I’m not arguing that point. I was just trying to point out that he has really turned the NG program around since he got there. Other than a couple of years, they were awful for about 25 years before he became coach. He works harder than most high school coaches do and I respect that.

Sam Tarlton (North Greene) John Dyer (West Ridge)

Are you serious? Tarlton has won 166 games at NG and is only halfway through his 7th season right now. 3 state tournament trips and I wouldn’t count them out making a 4th trip this season. Also, keep in mind he has done this at NG, a school that hadn’t been relevant in boys basketball for about the past 25 years before he got there.

They are getting better. They will be a tough out come tournament time. They have several younger players that are getting better every game.

You’re right they’ve not been great defensively so far but they have had a tough schedule early on.. Offensively they are fun to watch and I think they are going to figure some things out defensively and they will be there in the end. UH looks really good right now and looks like the favorite in the league and they have a good region opponent in Cosby coming to The Den Friday night that should be a good game. They have some young players that are starting to step up and play better. It’s not how you start the season, it’s how you finish.

I’ve always been a Tarlton fan but I’ll admit it’s probably not a good idea to blame the team for every loss and take the credit when they win. Eventually you’re going to lose the team.

Well that’s interesting because I’m not a big fan of any of those parents you’re talking about!! Maybe if they took the time to actually get to know him. People out there don’t care about winning, they just care about how many minutes their kids play a game. It’s really embarrassing they have no basketball knowledge at all.

If a coach doesn’t coach with some edge, I don’t want to play for them!!

You got that right!!

That’s a false statement. Challenging players isn’t treating them like dog crap as you say. Find somebody else then and go back to winning 8-10 games a year and being irrelevant.

Hard to say. NG doesn’t deserve either one of them

I agree 100%
