I'm just not impressed with the International teams. They are good, but I would rather see quality teams from the US. Don't get me wrong the Arby's Classic is one of the best things this area has ever seen. The Tourny is run very professionally and the directors do a great job. I'm just talking about 1st round match-ups. Be honest, what are the chances of either Urspring or Tabernacle winning the tournament? Greeneville could have DB or Science Hill's first round game. So yes, I would say Greeneville has a good draw. Every local team is going to meet their match in this years tourny.

 

I agree that I would like to see some more in-country teams (or some highly talented from outside), but they do add flare to the tournament. Regardless of how good they are, if someone who doesn't know a whole lot about it sees a team from Germany in the Classic, they think, "Wow, I bet that would be interesting to see." I also agree that neither Tabernacle nor Urspring will probably win the tournament; however, Greeneville has to win a game just to get into the position to win a first round game. Personally I don't count the play-in as first round. I really don't know a whole lot about either the California team or the Urspring team (aside from what I saw last year) and I understand that someone has to have the play-in, I just don't agree with it being Greeneville. Actually to be honest, I don't know why they invited enough teams for it to be necessary to have two play-in games. If I remember correctly, there were no play-in games last year. Or did I just not pay attention because it wasn't my team that had to play in it? (regardless I don't like the play-in concept)

I have just one question after watching the first round action. Why is the Northview team even up here? That is by far, the worst team I have ever seen at the tournament. They got flat out embarrassed by a decent (not bad, not great, pretty good) Science Hill team. I retract my previous statement about international invites vs. in-country if we can't bring in better than this.

DB and Gate City should just meet over at the Dome and play each other next year. Save themselves the embarassment. Did any player from DB stay on the court for more than 2 minutes last night. Un-Real /dry.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="

I have to agree with you Waco. The rotation was puzzling.

I want to see that Class A team out of Florida...After all Scottie says they should be about like a Group A team out of Virginny....HA HA HA...Scottie is a real pro about making statements in the paper, it ain't no wonder they ran him out of Nicklesville, VA.

Scotty was correct. The Florida team was very well coached, but not very talented.

      So much talk about an investigation about student record manipulation and then everything has went silent. Has anyone heard how the investigation is going?

      $750,000 Lawsuit Files Against Warren County School District

      Basically what you're saying is schools can basically bully students around and get away with it because they are protected. I agree to a certain extent but when schools decisions to keep knuckleheads on staff starts costing kids careers and a college education there is a problem. Our school system last week had a teacher supposedly push a kid and the parents went to the law and the teacher is suspended. So I wouldn't say that they can just do what they want without liability. This case don't pass the smell test because the coach had already been fired before and she got fired after a year on the job. Sounds like the student was right in this case on the outside looking in because the coach gets fired after one year. How many coaches get fired after one year?? Not many.

      Problem with DB football goes beyond coaching. Like Waco said. Thr band is the main focus of their community and school. They have the resources to be a championship level team. Guarantee Ballard or Witten could have them nationally relevant at some point but everyone down to peewee would have to buy in and at DB we all know that would never happen.
