  1. @Galilee, thanks for the information. Wow, I see why they would pass it up. Regular attendance games do not have a high capacity of attendance, as it is, and most of the time, people coming to tournaments generally come just to see their supported school play or maybe high profile player/school rivalry type games. It varies if they stay for any other games. So to take it a step further, does the hosting school keep all the proceeds (mostly speaking about ticket sales) since they put up the money for the tournament or does TSSAA require that a percentage be distributed among the participating schools.
  2. Is there a selection process as to what school gets to be the hosting site? Or is it based off something else?
  3. Ok, I have a couple of questions...No, I do not know the rules and no, I am not going to read them. lol Here is the scenario: Player is in mid-air hits a 3 point jump-shot, gets fouled hard while in mid-air (hits the floor); Player reaction he says the d-word (not condoning) out of pain I am sure it didn't feel all that great. However, the Referee standing right there (angle was not an issue, he was the only one in the area of the court (so he should have been paying attention since the ball was in play, the other refs where on the sideline down the floor and opposite side of the court) He did not make the call for a foul which it came long before the d-word, however, he calls a technical on the player who said the d-word; How does that happen? Not disputing the technical so much, but no foul call, really? General questions: 1> 3 refs assigned in the game, Why is it some never blow their whistles during the entire game? Not saying all 3 not blowing, but 1 is making the majority of the calls and I know he does not have every angle of the court. 2> Yes refs are human and probably heard everything under the sun, Why take the game out on the players because the fans or i.e. coach said something you didn't like? Because before they got under your skin, the game was being called fair but not so much, especially since you want to start throwing people out of the game because they asked what your name was so they could report you; 3> Player is every bit of about 4 feet tall, How does player drive to the lane among the trees and get called for an offensive foul? And I am not talking about a charge either, player is driving to make the layup and getting hit all on the top of the head. 4> How long is the training to become referees and do they take refresher courses and I'm not talking about training when the season begins on the court? (whatever it is doesn't appear to be long enough for some of them) P.S. - In the end, the team won the game regardless of the bad, missed, no calls by the refs. I just believe when this happens it sucks the wind and momentum out of the game a lot of times. If you cannot call it fair on both ends of the floor without bias, don't call it, let them play unless you discern it is physically getting ready to be out of hand.
  4. I will verify the information on City University. But the schedule currently does not show a 2nd game for them. Thanks for your response!
  5. The Hillcrest Vikings (Memphis, TN) should be noted as having 3 district wins. I did not see where I could correct them as being district teams after they were added to schedule. Thanks for the corrections in advance. 1) Middle College (Memphis, TN) won 2) City University (Memphis, TN) won 3) Oakhaven (Memphis, TN) yet to be played but a district team
