Tri-County Seven

Please do not generalize or stereotype all Unicoi County fans because of the bantering, whining, and accusations of only a few. Unicoi County, like most other places, has its share of "fans" who believe in their hearts that the only way a Blue Devil team in any sport could possibly lose is if the opponents cheat or if the referees hate us. The bad part is that those kinds of people in UC just happen to enjoy CoachT. Rest assured that the majority of us just enjoy sports and love seeing our teams be successful and have fun. I saw both UC and Betsy play at Happy Valley today, and was impressed with both teams. Unicoi shot lights out early and never really let Unaka get past that 6 or 8 point hump in the 3rd quarter (though the Rangers did miss some easy ones in that stretch that could have cut it to 4 or 5 and made the game very interesting.) Thought Unicoi doesn't have tons of depth, our top 8 are fairly solid while Unaka had to depend very heavily on 3 or 4 good players and some role players. Unicoi's had just enough depth to wear the Rangers down and pull away late. Didn't really like our team pressing in the last two minutes while up by 26-28 points, but it was a good win for our girls. Elizabethton looked a little sloppy in the first half, but they play soooo hard and buy into their style of play unbelievably well. I think the Elizabethton/UC matchups will be more competitive than they were last year and that UC will pull out one or two of them. The big question is which one or two - Regular Season or Tournament Time? It's a long season and only time will tell. Wishing both teams much success in the coming months.

How did the games at Happy Valley turn out today? Anyone have any information?

 

 

Must have posted about the same time. What about the other Tri-County teams?

 

 

Saw three games: Unicoi 81-Unaka 51 Crockett 55-Johnson Co 30 Eliz 64-Mo West 45

 

Scoreboard shows that Hampton beat Cherokee 61-60 and Cloudland beat Boone 47-40. No result posted for HV.

Agreed...everyone has their fair share of whiners and complainers. We all want our teams to do well and, win or lose, we should support our teams. I just get a little frustrated when some folks resort to derogatory posts about other teams. I haven't seen Unicoi play yet, but I definitely think the conference will be decided between EHS and UC (barring injuries).

Can I refer you to the "Trolls that Hate on the Lady Cyclones and Their Coach" thread to spew your venomous gossip and misinformation? I might also add that those living in glass houses should not cast stones. Is it just me or is it ironically hypocritcal for a UC fan to hate on EHS and make accusations of "do anything to win"? Just sayin...

 

sparky you didn't have a clue what a troll was till you started trolling others site

cast a stone just some teams recruit through summer ball doesn't mean everyone does

    • Im asking everyone to keep roy whited and his family in your prayers. Coach whited won back to back state championships at white county in 98-99. He is very well liked and respected in this area. For those of you that dont know he went missing 3 days ago. No one knows where he is. His truck was found in a rural part of the county. Thanks again. We are all very concerned. 
    • West would be a good team to get behind if they can pull it off again like last year. That championship game last year was awesome. 
    • I say that because he stepped out of a MUCH better situation on his own than he would see at least his first 3 years at DCA and it would take at least that much to bring him back to coaching. There are other fish in the sea, but again money talks. Need to fix the girls hoops too. Now I'll try again. Who has Pierce locked in for his staff? Hearing a McGavock man but not the Iceman.
    • I’ve heard mostly good things from the gridiron. Lots of optimism. It sounds like the portal has mostly helped, though there are a few expected defections. Comeback year!
    • Rudesell 1 year at Crockett. Coach Tate 2 weeks a Bradford. South Gibson supposedly going with jcs middle school coach. Which isn’t who I thought would get it, I know the top 2 was between him and Obion girls head coach.
