TigerPride23 Posted December 21, 2012 Report Share Posted December 21, 2012 Is Notre Dame's region/district really that weak this year? I saw they were 10-1 coming into this game and expected a good game. It wasn't even competitive. Not knocking on them, just surprised.

Indian Posted December 21, 2012 Report Share Posted December 21, 2012 The district is down as a whole, Grundy, Sequatchie, Chattanooga Christian all graduated a lot of players. Grundy started three freshmen one game I saw and Sequatchie graduated six seniors, four who were full time starters. Bledsoe, I expected to be the favorite, they have a losing record but have played some good teams including McMinn Central twice already. They've also had some injury issues.

TigerPride23 Posted December 21, 2012 Report Share Posted December 21, 2012 I just got curious and looked into Gabriel Christian. Wow. I know it's good to teach kids to not give up and to try to keep going, but I have to say it might be time to not have a girl's program there until things can get changed. I hate to say that because I understand you have to play to get better, but come on... We just beat them 69-10 I'm guessing that was while giving young players time. Last Friday Brentwood Academy beat them 86-5. All the scores are horrible. I think there is a point when you begin to break the kid's will to want to play anymore when you consistently get these kinds of losses week in and week out. Also saw where they had to forfeit games for whatever the reason. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dctiger Posted December 22, 2012 Report Share Posted December 22, 2012 Stealer, I may be wrong but I'm pretty sure Cope didn't have anything to do with Thursday scheduling. Wasn't that how the brackets were set up by the people over the tournament? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stealer007 Posted December 22, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 22, 2012 DCtiger get a clue. Do u believe that. Ask anybody. We play them 4 times are u serious. How bad does Pat Cope want to win. Heard Cripps had a whopping 2 pts tonight vs Cookeville. Guess that wasnt Gabriel Christian guarding her. Listening to radio during girls game is awful. Something is up between Pat Cope and announcer kid. Im coming tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King21 Posted December 22, 2012 Report Share Posted December 22, 2012 (edited) Cookeville is a pretty good basketball team with Robinson and Goolsby. Add the two freshman and watch out. Edited December 22, 2012 by King21 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dctiger Posted December 22, 2012 Report Share Posted December 22, 2012 Cookeville is a pretty good basketball with Robinson and Goolsby. Add the two freshman and watch out. I agree. I'd like to be at the CHS/White County game since they're having a good year as well and are big rivals! Stealer, if he was so adamant about playing GC, why would he want to be in the same bracket as Cookeville? Even Cannon is going to have their hands full with them. DC is playing another solid team today in Rhea County. Best of luck to the Lady Tigers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stealer007 Posted December 23, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 23, 2012 Pat Cope and the Lady Tigers come up short again. Got beat by average Rhea Co team. Good luck Lady Tigers in 2013. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HUCK Posted December 23, 2012 Report Share Posted December 23, 2012 13-2 is average? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stealer007 Posted December 23, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 23, 2012 Beat a 7th place team in district 8-AA by 1pt when DeKalb should have probably won. So in my opinion they are average. Look at Notre Dame came to Warren Co 10-1 and loss all 3 games. Chattanooga girls basketball not as strong. Rhea may end up being great i sure hope so. Best of luck Rhea. Pat Cope had the girls ready. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Indian Posted December 23, 2012 Report Share Posted December 23, 2012 Rhea had 1 win vs a team with a winning record before beating DeKalb. Right now I'd put them behind Bradley, McMinn and Cleveland in the district. Walker Valley is still rebuilding and the other two are struggling still. The other team they beat with a winning record, Warren County, also has a weak schedule, I was really surprised to see a Class AAA team have so many Class A, non-TSSAA, and non-competitive opponents on their schedule.

TigerPride23 Posted December 23, 2012 Report Share Posted December 23, 2012 I agree it definitely seems like Chattanooga girls basketball is not very strong this year. Notre Dame got crushed by 7th place team in our district and Rhea escaped with a 1 point win. If it were the top teams in the district it would've been very bad. I've heard our district compared to the SEC in college. We beat up on each other, but in out of district play we are usually very prepared.
