Union City basketball team I am not making any excuses about them losing the game. I think we were out coached. When Stockdale picked up his 3rd foul and the coach left him in the game to get his 4th one before half time was dumb. The men on our own radio station were going crazy about it. Even they were saying that Stockdale was the leader of the team. these guys called the games all 4 years so they would know, everyone that followed the team would tell you the same thing. It is what it is the season is over and the seniors had a great 4 years.

Only obvious leader on the team was Donte Simpson.  He gave his all, lead by example and effort.  Jogged on and off the court.  Great attitude.  A great role model to the younger players on the team and in the stands.  Proud of the entire team and coaching staff.  Hard to reach the title game without great players and great coaches.  Called "team effort"

you are wrong.  Kids transfer to OC, kids transfer to UC.  Every kid on the basketball team are all original UC students (elementary, middle and high school) except for the Stewart kid who was an out of state transfer.  There are plenty of athletes at OCHS, they just need the right coaches to fulfill their potential.

Shawn Johnson. NO not so far

No offence, but you're hurting your son moreso than helping him by blasting the coaches and everyone else. College coaches don't want to put up with all of the extra BS.... They don't have to. If I'm a college coach and I see how you act as a parent or relative to the said player, that player is coming with a lot of drama and will be marked off the list.

I have to be honest here. 1 foul or 6 fouls, it would not have mattered. Our game plan was to make them run the offense through him.. We knew he was their best post player but we had an advantage with our l6-6, 6-6, 6-4, and 6-7 post players. We knew if he scored it would be on put backs or fastbreak points. Without a true point guard, which UC did not have,, scoring against our defense was almost impossible for Stockdale.

Galilee your wrong!..The only 2 points he had was on a post move..It wasnt a stick back..He missed a couple of open looks that he usually makes..Nobody for UC shot the ball well.

    • And can you tell me who those two quarterbacks were, and every kid that was put into college from Bearden is a Bearden kid? It’s kind of why they graduated from Bearden.   and I would definitely not consider ETSU “waste”…
    • Most of this is complete gibberish. But the one part I could decipher is putting kids in college. This coaching staff hasn’t put a single Bearden kid in college. They completed wasted one of the best WRs in East TN and have ruined two talented QBs. All because they’re in over their heads. 
    • Well, I’d hope the new coaching staff thinks they are all that because they can always walk around the school, anytime they want, thinking that, especially for what they’ve done for the student athletes and the players, putting more kids in college in his first season than the old coaching staff did in numerous years combined, but we will just sweep over that because I know you don’t like facts. But trust me, nobody wanted Mr. Big britches, made the star player switch to quarterback, which is ultimately the reason he ended up transferring to play the position. He loved, but unfortunately, had to be at another school because Mr. Big Britches doesn’t like when a teenager knows more than him, but can’t expect much coming from a guy who used all class throwing pencils up into the ceiling and making fun of football kids who were failing class right to their face, and in front of numerous students, even projecting on the board most of the time.
    • After that first paragraph, I can see why you’re a TA and not a teacher. Have you made the move from South Knoxville to Bearden yet?    Maybe he left because he is an actual teacher and coach, and didn’t want to be associated with a group of foul mouthed middle school coaches who like to pretend they’re big time. 
    • Yeah and the coach is gone. Whole bizarre situation here. We played them a couple of times at MTSU last few years. She was a player for sure.
