2011Class Posted January 9, 2016 Report Share Posted January 9, 2016 Against teams like Cordova that have a lot of size we are really missing the size and depth Darel provided down there.Well taijon and Shequan and EJ can compete with them as for Gee and Javien idk. Come state tournament they should be ready need to work on defense and not forcing passes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dman1424 Posted January 9, 2016 Report Share Posted January 9, 2016 Just my opinion...or looked tired the second half! Those turnovers in that one span were not even forced Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SweetScience Posted January 9, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 9, 2016 Just my opinion...or looked tired the second half! Those turnovers in that one span were not even forced I've thought we looked tired myself the past few games. We have played a lot of games and have done a lot of traveling this year. Bahamas, Arby's, and now all the way to Memphis. Not making excuses, Cordova was definitely the better team, and although our schedule will be good for us in the long run, doing all that traveling wears on you. We have played a lot of games.

rebelwoman87 Posted January 9, 2016 Report Share Posted January 9, 2016 (edited) oh yes he did...brought the crowd to their feetAlways great to see that! Tee is fun to watch. Edited January 9, 2016 by rebelwoman87 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hyperquick Posted January 9, 2016 Report Share Posted January 9, 2016 Congrats to Oak Ridge...You will NEVER get better by beating Creampuffs...Just teaches Bad Habits and kills teams toughness. High School Coaches should take a page out of Oak Ridges playbook as far as playing solid competition. Coach Green has done a GREAT JOB challenging his kids, guarantee it pays off when it really counts. To many coaches chasing the "W" instead of preparing their kids. Hats off to Coach Green and Oak Ridge Basketball Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hats off to Coach Green and Oak Ridge Basketball Thanks a bunch HQ and I agree 100%. I think every East TN team should make a trip to the West every year just to get a feel for what it's like playing against that type of competition week in and week out. That #10 ranking they have is also a joke. No way 9 teams in this state are better than Cordova, especially some of the ones (including us) that are ranked ahead of them. The competition some of the teams that are ahead of them play pales in comparison to the schedule they play. That's why HS basketball rankings IMO are a joke.

I agree...You are who your schedule says you are, if you play a lot of weak teams then your Coach thinks your weak and send a BAD MESSAGE to your players. The Problem is that a Lot of people believe because they beat Single A comp and Bad 3A Teams that they are Good, its Comical, the old saying "They don't know what they don't know" rings very true. False confidence is far worse than knowing the truth and understanding your weakness. Some folks just DONT GET IT, COMPETITION AND COMPETITIVENESS ALWAYS MATTERS. If you are NOT battle tested the chance of winning against solid teams with good coaching is Slim to None Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dannyq Posted January 10, 2016 Report Share Posted January 10, 2016 (edited) Cordova is ranked 5 in the AAA shelby county dandy dozen. East, Germantown, and Whitehaven are ranked ahead of them also Dll CBHS. Edited January 10, 2016 by dannyq Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

East, Germantown, and Whitehaven are ranked ahead of them also Dll CBHS. Doesn't mean they're better, with the exception of East I'd say they could play with or beat any of those teams. Rankings are silly, which was proven today. Most of those teams out there are so evenly matched. Any of them could win on any given night for the most part.
