Been to this tournament many years in the past. Not very organized. Poorly run compared to most other events I've been too. Heard a lot of horror stories about last year's event from several folks who attended.

I bet you've seen bigfoot or know someone who has. Do you have a tournament you are promoting or just not have any class to post like this. Either come support the kids or stay home.

LittleRock attacks anything I am any part of. This poster even attacked our fall exposure league saying that the talent in a Knoxville league was way stronger than the talent that attends our league. Also stated that we had very few college coaches attend the event. Even attacked a Boys Rocky Top team that I was asked to coach by Andre Whitehead.

 

Bottom line is our tournament games are always on time, refereed by TSSAA licensed referees, and are played on the beautiful campus of Carson Newman.

Since this forum is open for people to express their opinions, that's simply what I'm doing.

 

Every time I've attended the Panther tournament, there has been some kind of organizational issue, regardless of the site. I am not the only person who has noticed this. This is a pretty common theme running through the travel team community. I'm sure some others would disagree. Most of the people I have talked to would not.

 

I saw your fall league last year. You had more teams. The other league had fewer teams, but in my opinion had better talent.

 

I rarely go to boys fall league games. I do remember going a time or two a few years ago to see a family friend play and remember commenting that your team didn't look very good the day I saw them play. Don't see how that's a personal attack.

 

Might come catch a few games. Might not.

Here's a sampling of SOME of the girl's that played in our fall league this past season: Ashlee Mitchell (POY Big 8), Brooke Rhodes (JCP POY, Region All Tourney, District POY), Maelyn Cutshaw (All District), Jenny Snyder (All Big 8), Shy Copney (All Big 8), Tiana Tarter, Madison Davis (Webb), Jade Hale (Mo East), Allison Ball (All-District), Karly Frye (District POY, County POY), Mendy McNeese (All State tournament as freshman), Kiera Smith, Mindy Brackns (all District), Mikayla Trombley (all district), Cassidy Martin (all state as soph), Lauren McCurry (all district), Morgan Depew (all district), Morgan Whittemore (all district, school record 80 3s), Tailor Morgan (all district), Allison Hodge (District tournament MVP), Laura Johnson (all district), Karsen Sims (All District), Makayla Graham (All District)............... Theres plenty more but that's a decent start. Oh I forgot Oak Hill Academy played in it too. That is fact not opinion.

 

As for the tournament I hope you come and bring a bunch of people. We'd love to sell you a ticket. Stop by and introduce yourself. Dang, I forgot! That would not allow you to make anonymous posts about our program.

    • I remember very well watching things change in the late 80's and yes it's all schools. Most people that are in charge today have any idea because they were raised and taught under this social experiment so they don't have a clue. Anyone that does see the truth for what it is usually try and hide it by blending in so that the School Gestapo doesn't round them up and take them to the Fuhrer ( kindly putting it ). Yes it is all schools not just Maryville. This train ride is not headed in a good direction and if the public had seen a movie of what's happening now back in 1980 everyone would have been headed home afterwards to change underware.  
    • You are so correct!  It’s really 99.9% of academia want to change to way that education is not only taught but the way it is viewed.  The pendulum has definitely swung as far to the left as possible and eventually will swing to the right much too far.  I have always  said that politics and one’s personal religious views need to stay out of education,  but for the last 40 years education has been running full throttle to what we have today.  If the social experiment that we are currently experiencing continues it is only a matter of time before the public school system in the USA completely collapses and all kids attend private schools or even worse don’t go to school.
    • He was a bruise but Aaron Dykes is HVA’s best RB ever.
    • I am talking about what they both did for their team. They both carried their team for four years while they were both there. I wasn’t really comparing them that would be unfair. Bishop is on a level of his own.
