One comment on the coaching. Do you think Coach King would let his 5'5" point guard drive the lane 4 times in a row when the game is on the line? He is to short, can't hit free throws so what is the point. We were within 7 with 2 1/2 mintues left in the game and we only got the ball to Alex once. Why would you not have a play that gets the ball to Paul or Alex? Can't understand Turnham continuing to let him do that.

 

 

i was wondering the same thing.

 

By the way there is like 300 cutters in TN

Coaches cant control their players while they are on the floor. Your point guard is supposed to be your on floor coach, and make split second decisions. Apparently Turnham trusts his PG to make the right decisions or else he would not be in there. Driving the lane opens up shots for other players, such as Alex, why would you not penetrate? That would be like saying why does Shaq post up? Penetration is one of the best ways to get open shots for other players on your team friend.

I think what he is saying is there are plenty of average height point guards who can shoot. Anyone Cutters size who is playing D-1 ball better be able to knock down a jumper, that is for sure. Cutter should do well at the next level, as long as he is able to have someone help carry the load like Kerry has done this year at Siegel. Cutter still has a lot of room for improvement, and hopefully will work on the areas of his game that are not as strong as some of his others.

It's hard to penetrate and dish to Alex when he has Epps at his chin the entire night. Also, if teams are going to continue playing Alex like this, I think he should play more one on one. He took Epps 1-on-1 a couple times tonight, ended up with 16 and only missed a couple shots.

Looked pretty good tonight, and against warren county and blackman. But Kerry returning will help us out a TON

 

 

warren county..............blackman..............woooow thats impressive......but they will be fine when kerry gets back and they get back into rhythm.....there is too much talent to get shut down in the first round.........if they get back to the way they were playin about a month ago they can still make a run

Why would teams not play Alex with the in his face approach. The kid can stroke the 3 ball and besides him, there is no consistent threat to score.

    • And can you tell me who those two quarterbacks were, and every kid that was put into college from Bearden is a Bearden kid? It’s kind of why they graduated from Bearden.   and I would definitely not consider ETSU “waste”…
    • Most of this is complete gibberish. But the one part I could decipher is putting kids in college. This coaching staff hasn’t put a single Bearden kid in college. They completed wasted one of the best WRs in East TN and have ruined two talented QBs. All because they’re in over their heads. 
    • Well, I’d hope the new coaching staff thinks they are all that because they can always walk around the school, anytime they want, thinking that, especially for what they’ve done for the student athletes and the players, putting more kids in college in his first season than the old coaching staff did in numerous years combined, but we will just sweep over that because I know you don’t like facts. But trust me, nobody wanted Mr. Big britches, made the star player switch to quarterback, which is ultimately the reason he ended up transferring to play the position. He loved, but unfortunately, had to be at another school because Mr. Big Britches doesn’t like when a teenager knows more than him, but can’t expect much coming from a guy who used all class throwing pencils up into the ceiling and making fun of football kids who were failing class right to their face, and in front of numerous students, even projecting on the board most of the time.
    • After that first paragraph, I can see why you’re a TA and not a teacher. Have you made the move from South Knoxville to Bearden yet?    Maybe he left because he is an actual teacher and coach, and didn’t want to be associated with a group of foul mouthed middle school coaches who like to pretend they’re big time. 
    • Yeah and the coach is gone. Whole bizarre situation here. We played them a couple of times at MTSU last few years. She was a player for sure.
