Good read. My daughter was fortunate enough to get a scholarship and play on the Big 12. Girls don’t get recruited playing only high school ball. Travel ball is a must if you want to play Division 1 softball.

Lebanon beat MJ tonight. They may be better next year but Barrett {Lebanon} and Wilde {Wilson Central} definitely upped the challenge for District 9AAA dominance this year.

I agree.

Don't know coach Floyd personally but I have seen him take the blame for losses when he could have laid it on the players. He was a class act in my opinion. More coaches should follow his actions.

And lost revenue is not a factor to struggling schools and athletic programs in smaller counties of Tennessee? These two coaches are a disgrace to the sport, girls athletics, and the state of Tennessee. This is going to put a black eye on all three of the above. Any coach or teacher that does not do more to provide a better example than this needs to look for a different line of work. JMOH. Working on different X's and O's is one thing but this was a disgrace to not only high school girls basketball, but all high school sports. You should know better.

You are kidding, right? And what about the lost revenue to Lawrence County and Tullahoma High Schools? This reminds me of the talking heads on the radio today wanting to know why the players did not refuse to play this way. Can you imagine a high school girl telling her coach she is not going along with this?

Just don't bother watching an Rutherford County games.

Should have said that don't promote the spirit of not working your butt off.

Agreed. Fire the coaches that promote the spirit of not working your butt off.

These coaches are molding the future of Tennessee sports and Americas leaders.

In a word, yes. I have not read through the multiple pages of replies. The coaches should be fired, the athletic directors should be put on a leave of absence , the school principles, put on warning. This is nonsense and starts at the top. If this doesn't work, the whole process of the TSSAA should be examined.

It's not going to get called in TSSAA high school softball and probably would not get called in college softball unless it was the College World Series. Just my opinion. I have seen worse in high school ball that never gets called.

I have not seen any 10AAA games. Just 9AAA and 7AAA.

I agree. Mt Juliet cruises into the state tournament but gets eliminated in short fashion at the state level. District 9AAA is weak for sure.
