Good to hear about west tn. Seems like every year I hear the least about the west but then they take home a gold ball, I think the meadows girl from Clarkrange has improved and runs the floor better

I was at the JC vs VB game. The VB girls looked extremely out of shape and lazy play. Not the desire to win loose balls or win period. JC dominated a very weak display of basketball by VB. I was disap

Couldn't have said it better myself! Tired of the double standard!

I saw Jackson co play this summer and they were lacking an inside game. They had a tough time penetrating teams with good help D and no dominate bigs. I think they finish third in their district.

No way they finish 3rd. Jackson Cty can run up and down the court with the depth they have so having several bigs in the middle is not that important, what is important is adjusting to the talent you have on hand, Jackson Cty does this about as well as anyone.

 

As I said, Jackson Cty until someone proves different

Your right, with the Meadows girl out they should finish second.

Pickett had to hit a 3 point shot from beyond half court to send the district semi into overtime or it would have been the other way around, so lets not act like they are head and shoulders above JC however they are the favorites i will give you that.  

 

 

The thing that bothers me the most about Pickett County is how dirty they play. I guess any team would win if they faked fouls driving in and pulling points. The sad part about it is the ref's usually buy it but it's crystal clear from the stands. Maybe they'll win an oscar this year too!

Pickett Co. does not play dirty. Any time a team has outstanding players and has won a lot of state championships like Pickett Co. (5). Jackson Co. (8) and Clarkrange (8) jealous people say nasty things. I have watched PC basketball for 20 years and have NEVER seen this or EVER heard anyone claim that they play dirty.

Clarkrange girls will be really young this year, even more so with Lexi Smith enrolling at York and with the loss of Kara Meadows with a torn ACL and losing powerhouses like Faith VanRuden, Britney Cooper and Cheyenne Shaver to Graduation, All 3 of those girls going on to play college ball. But like I have seen many years past that when i am thinking that it may be a long season Coach Lamar always seems to surprise me with the out come, i think Crange will still be in the mix of things and possibly surprise a few people.. Good luck to all teams, its going to be a exciting season regardless!!!

In single A ball,a dominant big is a luxury. Team speed is the dominant factor.  Good guard and forward play is where the road to success is. All the players have to box out for brief intervals just to get somebody open.

      $750,000 Lawsuit Files Against Warren County School District

      By TryNotToSuck · Posted

      I don't know what's going on in the town of McMinnville, but I've read this and it's disturbing.  I'm a "player" person, and I want what's best for the player. If a player gets cut off the team because she said the "F word" then good grief. I mean, come on guys. I wish there was a way for the player to transfer to a different program and just play ball. There are a lot of athletes that are stuck because they're in crappy situations regarding their team/coach. This is player just happens to be one them.

      Won't happen. College coaches will back the coach every time and it cost this young lady her senior season. Looks like the player may be right on this one. School let her  go after one season. This stuff happens more than you think.

      “No college is going to offer a scholarship to a player that is kicked off of the team.” For language? I’m not seeing that as a dealbreaker.

      Why did the coach get rehired after she was let go as an assistant by the former Warren County coach and the current AD?? Is that accurate?? I am very familiar with situations like this. Suprised lawsuits haven't happend before. If the coach unfairly let the player go, I think she has a shot because it cost her a scholarship. No college is going to offer a scholarship to a player that is kicked off of the team. Not going to happen. There are bad hires like this a bunch and kids are treated unfairly by coaches that can't coach a lick and have super long ropes somehow. Amazing how some of these coaches get hired and keep their job.
