Aside from the Karns game the other night, Green and team have had an amazing ability to make halftime adjustments, and come out super strong in the second.

 

The student section must have stayed home and done homework last night though as it wasn't as nearly impressive as usual.

Homework may have been more appealing than watching Halls.

We need to "clean" up our game if we are going to have a chance against Cordova. I've seen enough turnovers the past few games to last a lifetime.

 

Yea, that's the biggest weakness I've seen out of them too SS. It really doesn't make sense either with the guards they have. You can get by with that vs Halls, Cc, ac, etc... But vs the better teams it could cost you. To me, it's just a lack of concentration. Almost like hey we're gonna win tonight by 30 so I'll try this pass or that pass, you know?

Agreed, CC. It's what lost us the game against DC. I think we had over 20 turnovers and still almost won that game. It's frustrating to watch sometimes. Gee needs to have much better control of the ball. It almost cost us in the Karns game too. He lost control of the ball and the guy wasn't even playing up on him really. Thankfully he came back and made a great defensive play to make up for it. We make some boneheaded passes sometimes lol...We played out of control last night a bit as well. Here I am complaining and we are 19-1 lol

Lol, yea 19-1, and we're still nitpicking. But, I think you and I see that to get were they wanna go, they've got to value every possession, vs every team. I'm really surprised at the turnovers. I mean Gee will play at a decent school I believe( Carson Newman, LMU ETC...), he has to clean it up when college coaches are in the stands. With his supporting cast he should have a 3-1 assist/To ratio, I'd say it closer to 1.5 to 1. That's not gonna get it. It's time for him to step up, run the offense and stay out of foul trouble. He's the best pg in our district and he needs to act like it.

 

With all that said, I want to be in the stands the night they put it all together, I just hope it's not vs CC. LOL. Good luck vs Cordova. That'll be a good game.

    • For perspective the county school I’m associated and graduated from only has 7,600 people in the entire county with a median age of roughly 47. That’s not very many 14-18 year olds to choose from. I think the football team had 25-28 kids or around there.  On the other hand Shelby County has 916,000+ with a median age of 36. This isn’t just about Shelby county, but all the big ones with huge economic advantages!  An urban/rural split would benefit tons of smaller schools that have to compete with counties with 120x the amount of people. Especially the ones who can pick and choose their players from a pool like that!   I also agree with Pujo about charter and magnets and they will eventually be phased into the private divisions because it is obviously an advantage plus all the funding! Add that county schools can’t go recruit outside of their county like charters and magnets! 
    • They should be starting next week and go from there.  They never do Spring Practice in April 
    • It will be interesting to see if the Warren County School District allows this to go before a jury or they settle out of court before going to trial.  My guess is that this case never goes to trial.  If this goes before a jury, they could award even more than the $750K.  I was on a jury where they were asking for 185K and were awarded 1.2 million.  You never know what will happen in that jury room.
