IMAC (District 2 AAA) 2008-2009 Thread

CCHS was 4-of-11 from 3... they probably hadn't made four three-point shots in their last 3 or 4games combined...

 

Best of luck in the upcoming softball season...

 

 

Suggs hit that three to start the game, and I turned to my wife and said "If Suggs is hitting threes, this is going to be a tough night for Cherokee".

 

There is something about the way that Cocke County plays... They win ugly. That is not meant as a detraction, but they have this habit of getting up 10 or 12, and then all of a sudden, it is a 5 point game again. They throw up a shot, it bounces around, several people have a chance at it, and suddenly someone for Cocke County hits a 5 footer. Maybe what I am looking for is the word crisp. They are not crisp. But they win, and you don't get style points.

 

Cherokee is well coached, and will be much improved next year, although I was impressed with how Whitney Gilbert played last night. I like it when they have both of their big, young posts in there together. Ryans can handle it well enough to play away from the basket, and the whole team plays very determined. Young miss Price does not get rattled easy, and she is the heir apparant to the point guard legacy being deveoped by Fanney, Buda and Nelson. Ryans is benefitting from her AAU playing. She is dramaticly better with the ball then she was prior to her freshman year.

 

Did anyone else see Livesay push his player onto the court last night? I want to think he was just trying to get her back on the court, but it didn't look good, and she gave him a withering look.

 

PTS - I too wondered if when East called timeout with 8 seconds left if they were going to let Jeff County get up the court a ways, and then foul. Whitney Kyle did a great job of screening Leeper off of Nelson to allow her to get the shot off.

 

One last comment - I watch these games, and East has Orick, Cocke County has 3 6 footers (or bigger), Cherokee has 2, West has 2, Greeneville has Nicole, and poor Jeff County has almost nobody near 6 foot. I have said for years that our water must have some isotopes in it that stunts growth.....

Too bad none of the Peck children stayed in town to give Jeff County any offspring. /flower.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":flower:" border="0" alt="flower.gif" />

Did Depew play last night? If so, how did she play. If not, is she expected to be back for Regions? /ph34r.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":ph34r:" border="0" alt="ph34r.gif" />

Anyone who follows East know if they were instructed to foul Nelson before she was able to shoot in the final eight seconds of regulation?

 

nope, samantha hit both freethrows to make it a 3 point game, 8 secs with only 4 team fouls and they were pulled all the way back into a sagging man-to-man and allowed Haley to come down and perform one of jeff kyles favorite shooting drills.

What a moron that posts ignorant things like that.

 

This team has lost 8 or 9 close ball games due to poor free-throw shooting. If they hit on those free throws then they have maybe 3 or 4 losses. Then where do you complain at? As we all know teams have difficulties at times and some have them more than others. These coaches have had very good teams and this year is just a matter of making missed free throws and not having a key player go out with an ACL injury.

 

Coach Crumbley I hope you read only the positive comments on this thread. You have my support with many others! No need to leave, we welcome you here and hope you stay.

 

As for the Coach Duncan thing I believe your way off. Coach Duncan knows that his players made a bad choice and he knows there had to be consequences. Now I personally don't agree with the consequences for any of the spectators, however I am not the prinicple of the school. They made a decision in the best interest of teaching yound individuals a lesson. Hopefully these students can learn from it and become better individuals, wich is what Coach Duncan and Coach Crumbley are all about!

Your just creating false hope for Jefferson. They have some great players and as young as they are, they will be in the mix for the next couple of years, but West is way too good for them to even come close to tonight. No amount of motivation, movies, or misssions will help as West is as determined to make a strong run as any team I have seen in a long time. West by 15!

 

 

 

West wins 57-52

I was off on this one for sure. Jeff played a great game with a lot of heart. 3's were falling for them everywhere. I think they had at least 11. West was a little flat tonight also. I guess after having 10 days off it was taking a while to get in the groove again. It ought to be 2 great games on Monday: Jeff and Greeneville in the consolation and West and Cocke for the Championship. When all is said and done, I pick the 4 seeds to be (1)West, (2) Cocke, (3) Jeff, and (4) Greeneville.

    • 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. 
    • This whole situation is bonkers. You don’t just kick your star player off the team just because you heard them say the F word; the coach definitely had something against the player, or somebody definitely did. Also, nobody has brought up the idea that the school blackmailed the college to get the college to withdraw the scholarship offer, not to mention that the coach who kicked her off is no longer even with the program; they were fired. I think this is a pretty easy lawsuit. I don’t know if she should deserve that much money, but I think she should get enough money for a full-ride scholarship if she cannot get one after this situation.
