What's Wrong with Pickett Co.?

Tonight Pickett struggled to beat the weakest Clay Co. team I've ever seen. This is the type of game Pickett ususally wins by 30 or 40. They turned the ball over all night, couldn't go to the basket, and just looked bad. Any ideas of what is wrong???? They were much much better last year and have everyone back this year, plus more depth. Clarkrange must be salavating at their prospects for Friday night at Clarkrange. At this rate I'd take the Buffaloes by 10 to 15 and Upchurch will score 40 or more. Even in '98 when the Bobcats went 17-17, they still went to substate because they gave it their all. I can't see this getting very far in the region this year...most likely one game and out.

It's not the coach. It has much more to do with having players who's heads barely fit in the gym.

 

I'm like you it's not the coach. Coach Bibb is one of the best coaches around. The players need to get focused but it's hard to do when you know that you should beat a team fairly easy. That should be one of the main objectives for coach Bibb keeping the team focused and keep them hungry come tourney time. I believe the Bobcats will jell at the right time. But anybody can be beat on any given night. I hope the Bobcats don't get complacent and let somebody sneak up on them.

Then it goes back to the coach,bench the egos and start some subs,get their attention.

 

Muffin you are exactly right. Coach should rock the boat a little and that might get their attention.

 

I don't think it's panic time just yet. We have all seen teams peak to quick and fade to the way side right at tourney time. I believe coach Bibb has it under control and will have those Bobcats ready when it counts most.

Then there is a problem somewhere.

 

 

IT GOES BACK TO THE SAYING " TEAM IS NOT SPELLED WITH A "I"

TEAM BALL WINS BALL GAMES NOT "ME" BALL, IT SEEM THEY HAVE A PROBLEM WITH THE "TEAM" CONCEPT. AND THEIR PLAY REFLECTS IT. TEAM HAVE STAR PLAYERS, HOWEVER IF THE STARS CAN'T DO IT BY THEMSELVES AND THE STARS DON'T USUALLY PLAY ANY "D" , AND GOOD "D" WINS GAMES.

GOOD LUCK PC

Pcbobcats1, i know you are a fan, sports writer or whatever.....you question everything that the team does, if PC was 25-0, you would be questioning why the margin of victory is not larger? You make excuses and talk about the refs everytime someone beats Pickett. Are they playing great? No....Are they winning? they are beating who we are suppose to beat, with a couple good wins during the xmas break.

 

You questioned the scheduling of the christmas tournaments???? They can play with those teams, but they have to bring their A game, showed it at times, but not for 32 minutes and that is what it takes for Pickett to beat a Sparta, Whitehaven, Shelbyville.

 

If you call one player more depth, then I guess they are loaded with it!!!! Granted the players that got to play off the bench last year have another year of experience, but Sells is the only one that plays more than 1 minute that has any experience and add depth.

 

Last time I checked district tournaments, region tournaments, sub-states are not won in December and January.

 

As far as Muffin and the coach, you just like to argue about whatever....I promise you Coach Bibb at Pickett has forgotten more about basketball than youor PCbobcat1 will ever know!!!! Thats a fact!

    • They’ve both gotten worse. I’ve seen enough games to know that. 
    • The only two transfers that Bearden has gotten that went on to play college football were a defensive back from Karnes, who transferred here way before the new coaching staff got here, and a running back from Carter, who went on to play at Maryville College. Both players received those offers while at Bearden, and both players got a diploma from Bearden High School. Therefore, they are Bearden kids, and you can’t do anything about that.   The transfer from Seymour didn’t win the job, what do you expect two quarterbacks to start at the same time? He played great on JV when he could stay healthy, and when he came in on varsity, he did great. The quarterback position is definitely going to be in good hands when the current starting quarterback leaves, but until then, they’re just going to be battling it out like every good quarterback competition does. The current starting quarterback has his flaws, and that is in the pass game, but what he doesn’t have flaws is running and scrambling, and if you go back and watch any game, which I’m sure you didn’t watch any, we used him very often, and when we needed a deep ball, we brought in the transfer from Seymour. The starting quarterback last year will be a senior this year, and the Seymour transfer will be a junior, so the Seymour transfer is definitely going to get his spotlight. He may even win the job this year. Football isn’t about who the newspaper thinks is the best kid. The best kid in the position will win the starting job, and I trust the coaching staff more than a newspaper or article to pick my starting QB.
    • I mean, we’ve only gotten two transfers that went on to play college football, one who went to UT Martin came his second semester junior year before the new coaching staff was here, and the other one went on to play at Maryville College, in which I don’t believe he had any interest prior to transferring.
    • An FYI: To see how an opponent has done against another opponent since 2001- go to the game by clicking on one of the teams. Click the G beside the game. For example, Milan: The info will show you the previous matchups and other info.
    • All these college signees went yo other schools for 3 years, were getting college offers then transferred to Bearden. It’s not like this staff did much to develop them.    The BBall coaches son and the Seymour transfer were some of the most talented QBs in the region, and you guys developed them into QBs who might complete one pass a game.
