  1. I'd like to make an appeal to all school's fans to help out coachT by posting your schools scores and schedules. It's very easy and it's informative for members.

     

    A quick look of the scoreboard for Tuesday shows 15 boys scores still missing. Teams like Brentwood, Germantown, Munford, Hunters Lane, Jellico, Red Bank, Manassas, etc. I know fans of those schools are on this forum...so help out. If the game was cancelled or rescheduled--email coachT so he can make the changes.

  2. Pruden High School was actually located in Claiborne County on the KY border. It closed in the mid-60s...and I believe they were called the Panthers.

     

    Stony Fork School in Campbell County closed just last year. They played basketball up until the late 60s and I actually saw them in a District tournament one time. SF only had like 30 kids in the whole school---located in the most remote spot in the US, I believe! I think they were the Vikings or Mountain Vikings.

     

    The Norma Wildcats and Robbins Hawks consolidated along with Huntsville into Scott County/Scott High. I remember when Norma had a basketball player named Henry Hutson who led the state in scoring one year.

  3. For the record, since the instituition of the 5 classifications, Clinton was always classified as a 4-A team. But for many years they elected to play a 5-A schedule.

     

    The decision to go ahead and play a 4-A schedule several years ago was based on area rivalries and attendance and not that they thought they could "dominate" 4-A. If anything, it was easier to make the playoffs in 5-A.

  4. Personally, I don't care for the shot clock. And I don't know how well it would work in some of the smaller more-cramped gyms. Placement of the shot-clock might be a problem.

     

    If the TSSAA does go to a shot clock I would like to see it around 60 seconds. That would allow the patient teams time to work for a shot while doing away with an outright stall.
