TT, I am not harassing you. Those were your words. Karns is not out of anybody's "league"

 

Every other poster on this board is favorable of Seviers. She is a great player. There is nothing wrong about that. She is one of the best in Knoxville. You have several good players, but none are in her "league!"

First of all, I am not K2ruth.  I dont know who that is even so we used to be with K2. 

 

That was a good match last night with the dragons and beavers.  Seviers is a really good player and there are a few other atheltes on the karns team also.  I agree that Lyric did not perform well last night at all (and it is actually spelled Muncy) lol.  She actually had a bit of food poisoning apparantely from a big mac a couple of hours earlier.  She was really nauseous the whole game but fought through it.  She missed most of her serves and just didnt get into a groove of hitting.  That was her worst game this season.  We have a few other good players too, but we just struggled to get going.  I am done with excuses now. lol

 

With that being said, I thought karns was better than that.  We talked on the way home that they must have been down a little last night because we played really bad for 80% of the match, but actually stayed within striking distance most of the time. 

 

The bad thing is, you cant drop any district games any more because of only playing each other one time.  I guess we will have to hope for a rematch in districts!  We have Oak Ridge tonight, so we will have our hands full again.

 

Go Dragons!!

We are not that good when it all comes down to it. Can we (knoxville area volleyball fans) start to understand that other than about 4 teams in our area, the others are not that great. Yea we can beat clinton and OR but lets be serious. Clinton and OR and Karns for that matter, are not that good. A lot of it has to do with coaching and alot of it has to do with what club you play at. PR doesn't have the staff nor the players that K2 has. This is not a hit on any one player or club, it's just the facts. Our district stinks hwen it's all said and done. There will not be a member of our district representing knoxville in Murfreesboro. I can promise you that. The Karns players are OK. The clinton players are OK. We just are not great. Hopefully with time and a NEW coach we will get better. What colleges are looking at the Muncy girl? Does anyone know?

We were hoping that this was our year to get past districts, but we have struggled when we needed to do better.  We can play pretty good, but it just hasnt happened when we need it to happen.  We graduated our libero last year.  She went to Webber International University in Florida to play indoor and beach. We have really struggled with passing the ball up to the setter so far this season but it is still early.  Its up to the girls now.  They have to want it.

 

There have been several colleges look at Lyric this past year.  We are going to do a couple of showcases again this coming club season and see what happens.  She is a young senior so this is her last year.  Thanks for all the positive comments you all have said about Lyric.  She is a great young lady with a big heart and loves playing.

 

Go Dragons!

For peaksakes Big Blue! I am AMAZED and totally in AWE of how you put down your team and coach whenever you get a chance, if I am correct YOUR daughter plays for KW and on PR! If you don't have faith in YOUR own coach then why have you stayed at Karns and PR for that matter?!

 

I haven't gotten to watch Karns this season until last night and I was impressed how well they played. They definitely are NOT the top team to beat, but played with heart! Get off your high horse Big Blue and SUPPORT your team!

Flyer....First of all I don't sugar coat things and I call it like I see it. I support my team but I'm not going to lie about them. Sorry, I'm not that kind of fan. I'm not a sheep. When we play GOOD volleyball I'll let you know. When we play BAD volleyball I'll let you know. When I think our coach is doing a great job coaching our girls, I'll let you know. When I think our coach is doing a BAD job coaching our girls, I'll let you know. Remember , this is just my humble opinion. I'm not slamming your opinion. I'm just giving you mine.

    • Way late on this post, but I do believe that I want to at least weight in so to speak lol. I wrestled NAIA competed against some of the best wrestler over all a crossed the divisions and felt great about my college wrestling experience. I think people make the mistake in believe that wrestling some how gets easier as a sport at the smaller college divisions it doesn't the training is mostly the same. I have that on good authority from a coach who was a D1 all-American. it's more the commitment level of the competitors that is different. There is talented wrestlers that can go D1 at any level in the smaller division. sub in Sammy Shires for one he would have done fine on a DI team. He chose a work life ratio that suited him. It's not about talent it's commitment are you going to make training and studying the sport the center of your world cause that's what it takes: NO MATTER HOW TALATENTED BEFORE HAND YOU ARE.  If so then D1 is for you and striving for success at that level is for you like Mr. Palmer said it's what your willing to put in. Now coaches if you have a successful wrestler who fits that bill then by all means D1 is a great option they will see some success no matter how small, but if they are not that committed along with being talented and a killer and you know it then your doing them wrong.  You don't have to tell athletes that you don't think they are D1 tell them to keep their options open to take all their visits to consider all the divisions regardless of their goals. college recruiting visits have you most times wrestle against their current wrestlers coaches and athletes  will find out real quick it's not easy no matter where you go. That way when they make their decision it's a sound one that's based on well rounded experiences.     BobCorker, and oceansize42 I believe what you are thinking is correct but for different reasons. TN wrestler's have the talent... it's a commitment level change. TN wrestlers aren't used to having to put themselves through the level of commitment required and kills them on the D1 level.    WrestlingGod, I agree you should push kids to pursue their dreams, but not at the cost of common sense period... we have to much of that going around this country already. Dreams can turn to poison when these wrestler are not educated on what it truly takes. In TN  a kid who understands wrestling to a high level can be successful with small amounts of hard work. They think their definition of hard work is enough for D1 that is the mistake not the "talent/understanding".  Over-all though we do not celebrate NAIA,D2,D3, or Juco success in this state like other states do. GA/AL celebrates all it's college wrestlers success a crossed the  board no matter the division. Why? because it's hard... I have gone to all the divisions National championships let me tell you to be a all-American at any is impressive especially D2 or NAIA. those guys can scrap and not one of those AA's are an easy match. all of them were state placers or champs multiple times in their high school careers. does that at all sound easy to place at? TN does not give those guys enough credit or shout outs period. it's an over sight because of this D1 or it's less than meaningless   mentality on this site and in this state. GA/AL is better then us on the highest stage because they send guys to D2,NAIA,D3 ect. they come back understanding the sport better then their pervious coaches, and give back and that cycles to athletes readiness to go D1 with clearer understanding of what it takes to be competitive day 1 freshman year.             My post isn't to support one way or the other but to just consider that both sides have merit and that both work when the system in TN. by system I mean coaches are the better educated on preparing athletes for each level they want and should pursue.        
    • If you think McKenzie could've beat Riverside I have a bridge you might like to buy. 
    • Hate to hear Ricky is heading to the old folk's home!
    • By recruiting, I mean members of a coaching staff are talking to, meeting with, giving tours, to students, and their guardians, that are not zoned for their school.    there’s no way that many non Bearden kids just showed up all at once without being recruited. It can’t be a coincidence that all those kids also went through the middle school all star game your boss puts on every year. 
    • Not sure how I would put it as recruiting perhaps kids trying to better their career by going to a head coach and coaching staff with connections all over college football that gets them the opportunity to go play college football and be coached by a coach with a pretty good track record.
