I sure hope you are right!!!

I just want to voice my support for the Lady Indians of Hancock Co. This week will be a trying time for all teams, each wanting only one thing: a trip to the boro! Each team will also play their hardest and smartest. I wish you luck in each game played. The fans want win after win. YOU have to want it. Winning is up to the girls and the coach. Congratulations on getting this far. No matter how far you go in the next couple of weeks, we are behind you- your fans of Hancock County, TN We love you!!

I have been noticing the message boards and not much has been said about Hancock. Co. Well, I think something needs to be said: this team is driving toward the finish line. They have what it takes and they are determined to see it through this year. The team has potential and a desire to win. Watch out! Hancock Co. is on its way!!

Hancock County started with real talent. There are five seniors, all with great potential. There is heighth there, also. At first, the boys really played team ball. I thought to myself watching them play for the first time, "We are going to have a great year. These boys are playing extremely well to have a new coach and to lose the members from last year that they lost." Well, somewhere between then and now, the spark is gone, the desire is gone, and so are their hopes. They can still win games if they get their heads into this sport. They have the talent, they have the faith of their followers, but what is lacking is their heart. They need to play as if each game is their last. They need to play with their heads. The boys are making stupid mistakes that cost them big time. If they can dismiss the past games, do what they KNOW is right, they will come out a winning team. Come on, boys! We love you. You have Coach Powers. There is nothing you can do to change that. Deal with it!

I just want to say "Thank You" to the players, coaches and anyone that supports the team. The girl's and boy's teams have given me immeasurable happiness and pleasure to watch them grow and strive to be their best. They are great players, as well as wonderful people. To all the seniors, I wish you much success and happiness in whatever you choose to accomplish in the many years to come. Just remember all the happy times you had with your team! For the upcoming teams of 2003-2004, Go get'em!!!! We love you all!!!!!

Everyone here in Hancock County are proud of the girl's basketball team!! Coach Ramsey has taken the girls farther in playoffs than they have gone in some time!! Congratulations on achieving all you have, girls!! Kim, I know your future will be bright because you are such an outstanding person!! Harriman, you played a good game- Good luck at the Boro!!!!

Shaniaguy! You are the official scorekeeper? You sure do talk to be the "official" anything! You do not help Cosby's image at all!! [Edited by bluealltheway on 3-10-03 11:11A]

This is a very important game for the teams of Cosby and Hancock County. The boys and coaches have worked extremely hard since summer of last year. The players know this is a deciding game and that one team moves on and the season ends for the other. We, the fans, need to keep in mind that this sport of basketball, is a school program and that we need to conduct ourselves in a sportsmanship way. There are those out there that give BOTH teams a bad image. For those, I am ashamed. Why does our basketball program have to be surrounded with such ill manners? Can't the game just be played and the outcome be decided by the players on the court? I support my team fully, and will stand beside them no matter what the score is when the buzzer rings for the final time on Monday night. I was at the game 2 years ago when Hancock hosted Cosby in sub-state. I know fans were seated inside the gym to the point I thought it may have influenced the way the boys played. I hope tomorrow night's game will be played fairly and that the fans of both teams accept the outcome for what it is. Go Indians!!!

Kev, you're right on the money!! Bradley talked trash to more than Rocky on the Hancock team. Hancock had not played them this year until then, and I think Bradley talked garbage to get HCHS messed up in the head!! We had only one meeting with UH and they won the game, but that doesn't make them the better team!!

Can't remember exact scores' but HANCOCK won both their games

Anyone have the scores for the Unaka/Jellico games at Milligan tonight? Anxious to hear!!

What about Rocky Nichols from Hancock County? He deserves to be considered!! [Edited by bluealltheway on 2-24-03 11:06A]

Hancock County's senior Rocky Nichols should be nominated for class A Mr. Basketball, he will get his 2000th point this week.

I think that the best song is "Dueling Banjo's".

I did see the the game and Cosby is a good team, but the road to state is filled with potholes. The Indians are a determined tribe, and they have alot of heart!! Keep watching!!!!
