TSSAA rents it right?? Why is it all on MTSU?? Shouldn't TSSAA make sure programs are printed and floors are cleaned between games and trash is taken out. I rent my houses. Not my responsibility to clean my renters mess. Let's call it like it is. 

Does that offend you? We all know it's a dump in comparison. You splitting hairs about the bill is another issue.

Let's call it like it is. The Glass House is a dated disgusting mess. It takes 15 minutes to walk to the bathroom because your feet get stuck at every step. Nobody empties the garbages, half the snack bar people look high. Tech is a much cleaner, comfortable facility. Move it.

What kind of school is this?  A new private school that has not been put in DII yet or is it a new charter school that can bring in kids all across a large metropolitan area . How long has this school been around? 

The latter and 2018. Any concerns are obviously warranted

You got that right. You better start practicing for next year. We are going to be even better.

As a wise man once said, If you ain't first, you're last!

It will be safe to say you will pretty much fill up the Glass House. Since Maryville is on spring break I’m not sure what kinda crowd we will bring. I’m looking forward to it though 

Go Red Rebels 

Cookeville on spring break also. It would be great to see a large Cookeville contingent but hard to tell.

A couple of quick comments...

1) The Lady Trojans were hammered by food poisoning. Four players and two coaches were sick. To pull this one off under the circumstances was unbelievable.

2) As I left the arena the Upperman bus was on the lot near the gathering of Dyersburg fans. When the Lady Trojans exited the Murphy Center, Upperman cheered and blew their bus horns in celebration of the first state title for Dyersburg. I mentioned earlier that I stayed in the Upperman team hotel this week. I have so much respect for your coach, staff, and student athletes. They were incredible ambassadors for your school and community. 

LOL if that was LA or WC that beat them, I can assure you the reaction wouldn't have been cheers.

Coleman is the point guard. #22. #23 is a freshman so you may be thinking of someone else. #14 is back, Mullins, she's 6 foot.

Mullins is the one who hit a couple of key 3 pointers to keep them in the game.

LA returns 3 starters. It will be hard to replace Ledbetter and Melton but they do have some height on the bench. Just hoping they can get more physical next year. They had a few freshmen who saw some good minutes too. As good as Butler is, my mvp is Coleman. Team will go as she goes.

Congratulations to LA on a great season!! 

3 returning starters next year and 5 freshman return with solid minutes. Hopefully be back for another!!

We tried to help them out! An unprecedented 13 turnovers, 6-8 missed layups, and we missed 12 free throws! We also got in foul trouble early in the game 

Yeah we tried to help you too unfortunately. 19 turnovers and surely 10 or so missed layups. Could have been worse but they hung in there. Definitely was a good fight

If you are talking about Lina Lyon from Elizabethton, you are correct…did she make the All-Tournament team?

Yes

Congrats to SS. Hog-eye did what they could but those early mistakes cost them. They have a heckuva fight with the best fans in TN behind them! Great year and looking forward to returning next year!!

Whose on first?

SS raises the gold. 

Yip and I figured that reply was coming when I typed it

#22 is good but is not on the same planet as #4 from Elizabethton! 

Hmmm not sure where I compared them but thanks?

Coach Leslie I'm sure is analyzing what Betsy did right and go from there. Of course whether they can execute is a different story. Coleman is quick and can handle the ball which is needed against a SS.. If Ledbetter and Melton can have a strong game down low like last night, I think they can win this. I'm a fan, I'm biased, and I'm going with LA by 2

Let's go VB! VB by 3! Bouldin elevates on big stage!

Looking at South Gibson’s schedule on CoachT - 10 losses on the season

4 to Jackson South Side - 3A finalist

2 to Gibson County - still playing in 2A

Livingston Academy - 3A finalist

York Institute - great team with bad draw at state tournament 

McCracken County (KY) - still playing in KY state tournament

Pleasant Grove (AL) - 5A state champion

Apparently this was the first state tournament appearance in school history. They were never a threat to win the gold ball, but still an impressive season. Embrey has done a great job in two years there. No need for bashing them 

 

One win you didn't mention was a solid 4A Warren County team. I knew we were in for a tough one yesterday

They went to Middle TN and beat Creekwood at their place. 

I don't know, I wasn't impressed by Creekwood this year. 2 of their 3 season losses were to LA and both in double digits. Regardless I think anyone in sub-state is playing tough including SG.

Betsy let Dburg hang around too long on Tuesday. I think they have the talent to knock off SS but I couldn't understand why they couldn't slam the door shut. Chucking up 3s with 4 minutes to go and double digit lead, overly aggressive in final quarter with unnecessary fouls, etc. If they can play a more disciplined game and work inside, I think they win by 3. They try that same stuff that they did Tuesday it will be SS by 15. 

Not hearing much chatter on this game. Who you got? SG looks like they have a couple taller girls but not sure how they would match up underneath with LAs bigs. I'm going with LA by 5 but I'm always nervous in making such predictions
