    Heard they had some applications . Who are they ?

    they could not even get our girls assistant in franklin county to apply for the job that is how bad the situation is 

  2. is any coach going to go there with administrators running off good coaches?  it has always been a place that coaches go to just win a few games and then go to the next better job available.  it is good for my rebelettes maybe we will keep some of our girls in franklin county the next few years 

  3. was the monson girl hurt for Blackman because all I heard all year was how good she was.  bearden has good defense but she had a lot of open looks and missed a lot of shots.  understand the boilermakers decision over southeastern conference now

    The same referee that made terrible calls in yesterday's game is making terrible calls again in Fayette Ware-Creek Wood.... maybe this guy is not up to par to referee a state tournament game. Is there a standard for that?

    I agree very bad officials in the state tournament same ones get games and it is a shame

    Personally I thought Upperman has been playing a lot better on defense than it showed today but I have to remind myself Lizbethton is pretty dang good!  Great win for the Lady Bees. One game at a time!  Playing teams like White County 3x Livingston Academy 2-3x Greeneville,Oakland etc… prepares you for these games. AAA is going to be one tough division year in and year out. White County and Livingston will be forces to deal with. Putnam County’s middle school programs are loaded with talent. Now you add Page to the region and it’s tough sledding. So we are going to have some wars over here to even make it to the glass house!

    page will be in that region and district one more year and they will move up they are growing and will not be in AAA basketball.  I am hoping them and Spring Hill are added to our district so we can get a five team district with franklin county, coffee county, Shelbyville, Warren county, page and Spring Hill.

    Congrats to the Lady Bees and Coach McWilliams!  East Hamilton comes to Baxter on Saturday night. Hopefully we can take care of business and then head back to the glass house!

    maybe coach will know which uniforms to wear at home

    Bee's over LA by 14!

    got to listen to Fayetteville broadcast of page and Lincoln county game.  Page won over falcons by 30+ I believe 

    does anyone know who this region would match up with after championships?

    They didn't play weak competition in South Carolina & Alabama.  Tennessee is a women's basketball state.  They played decent teams.

     

    No team this season blew them out.  Not even Page or Blackman or McMinn County that was fortunate to play their best game of the season while Coffee County played one of their not-so-greatest.  It happens, and then you lose to teams you shouldn't.

    correct then we just have this same conversation each year about this same coaches team the last five or six seasons and will continue to have it.  see you back next year to discuss again but as of now it is softball season for my family

    I disagree.  Both Page in AAA and Blackman are championship caliber programs as is Pickett County in 1-A. Is the school supposed to budget more money than allotted to send their team to Chattanooga, Knoxville, & Memphis?  Coffee County had one of the more tougher schedules in the state.  It's not CC's fault that Franklin County & Shelbyville had two of the worst teams in the state this year, and that the inept TSSAA reclassification left them in a district where they had to play these teams 3 times in the regular season.

    I agree we were not the best competition for coffee county and have not been for some time now.  but does not mean they could not go schedule some tougher tournament games during breaks rather than go to South Carolina and Alabama and play weak competition.  they annually do this but when playing the likes of a page or Blackman it does not go in their favor.  i would rather be a tougher team in the tournament than have a beefed up regular season schedule with no merit to it.  all I see is their girls got to play one more extra games than my granddaughter this year and I do not have to work concessions at a region game that my family is not playing in.

    Coffee County just cannot get out of the region.  Loses in overtime to McMinn County. 

    nothing new being in the same district with this coach now for the last 5 seasons with my granddaughters and watching how they schedule they have unbelievable easy out of district regular season schedules and win big and it is all about him that when big games happen they do not know how to finish seasons in the tournaments.  makes no friends where he goes and gets beat by better coaches and more skilled teams while all he cares about is where he can go after from what I am told by many here in franklin county and coffee wipes it under the rug

    Page at White County will be a great ball game to witness in one of the best high school atmospheres you can ever be in bar none!  Yert one time baby!!!

    Was not even close and was not a great game.  White County had almost as many turnovers as it did points.  Maybe work on the skill level of breaking pressure, ball handling making the right pass and quit worrying about running gimmick defenses that get you early wins each seasons.  Page made them look like a non factor and I thought the post play would hurt page some.

    LA hasn't been the same since the first Cumberland loss. They made a very mediocre team look formidable tonight.

    this time of year it comes down to coaching and Livingston Academy has more talented players than Lawrence County and more scoring but the scouting and the coaching catches up at some point and it showed in this region tonight in all four games.  the travel ball that all the Livingston academy players do together in the offseason does help them but I think if Lincoln county and page did not have to play each other in the semifinals they both would advance getting to play overmatched and out coached Upperman and Livingston Academy teams.  

  13. coaching has shown to be superior in 8aaa even in the two that loss I think Tullahoma looked way more prepared than Upperman they were just undermanned.  Lawrence County did not have the firepower but had the game plan to win and coaching strategy.  Page proved they are the best of the region and Lincoln County finally struggled on offense but coach Tipps put together a master plan to defeat Cumberland county.  Should be fun semifinals I would expect Page to win and the other game to be a toss up.

    My prediction 

    Upperman

    White County in a close one

    Livingston Academy

    Cumberland County

    i have seen page play and i think they are one of the teams to come out of the region. it will be a toss up the other team.  i think one of either Lincoln county or Lawrence county will win first game.  Lawrence County is so hard to play at I would pick them and I am so happy we do not go play there any longer.  Upperman will beat tullahoma i do agree with that pick.  I do not know what has happened with them but seems from what i have read Upperman is playing well. I think two teams from each will make it to semifinals page being one and Upperman being the other.  Just not sure of the other two.

    Don’t think Page will win against LA/Upperman/White Co. 

    I think they could beat those three teams no problem.  Upperman would give page no problems especially with the slow post they play and the press they run.  Livingston Academy does not shoot it well enough behind the arc to give Page issues and they will let them have it if they want.  White County has post players but their guard play is suspect and that is where Page would make them pay.  Do these teams match with page in Sectionals or regionals?

  16. does anyone know the standings for this district tournament or when and where it is being played?  i think I read where games were at Lawrence county already but do all the games get played there because I think it could be a good semifinal with girls and boys outside of page girls who should dominate the girls side.  does this district go to Murfreesboro or to East Tennessee and play?
