[jmoney2443]

I am new to this but why is it chattanooga teams can not do good

In state tournament or why can they not play with other teams from state?

Maybe I am just blind but we seem as if we have good talent. Is it the

Coaching or we just don't have what it takes any more? Been a while

Since chattanooga brought home the gold ball. Just a question

I was up at state and middle and west are so far ahead of chattanooga I think. They seem more discipline and more about team. Thanks for the reply

I do feel we have talent just not being used right.

Chattanooga has 12/13 high schools and all our athletes are spread out. Maybe if we had open zones we could get more than one great player per team. Don't think has anything to do with coaching. Place some of the mid-state and west TN coaches over here and see what would happen.

not sure wtn coaches are that superior it is just that they have to compete against memphis teams and they know they have to step their games up in the summer. i dont consider memphis wtn...they are a region of their own. best coaches are in mtn no doubt. competiton is pretty weak in chatt area as well.

This could be such an interesting thread cause it has so many possibilities.

Coaching and talent  vary from place to place but and talent cycles too.

I do think some of the best coaching is in Middle Tennessee.

There is talent in Chattanooga but it is spread out. Too many High Schools not so much as Coaching although I think it could be better but like stated previously if there was open enrollment in Chatt u would defiantly see a difference.

There are already underused schools and some either overcrowded or close to it, open enrollment would worsen both of those things. The more popular schools cant accept everyone and they don't need some of the new construction until what they have now is filled. If the best players all go to one or two programs you might have those rise up but the rest will be even worse, going to mediocre or to the bottom of the barrel. That said, you can have strong teams without having elite prospects. It takes some things sometimes out of the coach's control like experience, support from the school and good luck with injuries.

No talent and poor coaching… How many players from Chattanooga have gone to a major Division 1 school and been successful in last 5 years? Most coaches play sloppy zones and don't discipline their players. Good basketball starts at the youth level… Need good youth programs…. Not sorry AAU teams where they focus on "exposure", but end up just EXPOSING how weak they are… Focus is to much on Winning not enough on development… http://developyourbballiq.com/peak-by-friday-and-year-round-competition/
