8-AAA

I'm really surprised at how the regular season play has shaken out. I thought that Franklin County would perform better in terms of W/L's as well as Lawrence. Just based on press releases alone and not having watched them play except one time, it seems like Tullahoma is playing better and may be the surprise of the district this year. I predict an exciting game against Coffee Friday night considering the former and also considering that, while they continue to win, Coffee doesn't really seem to be playing their best ball. Individual stats here and there look pretty good, but on the court their team effort seems kind of piecemeal. So we shall see! Tournament will be exciting as well I believe!

LMAO - Coffee Co is 8-0 and won those 8 games by a combined 200 POINTS!!!!!! Since the turn of the year they are 6-0 in the district and won those 6 by 120 points. You are gonna have bad shooting nights and gonna have a couple close games but for the most parts they have rolled. They beat Oakland and Cookeville at Cookeviile by double digits, pretty good wins. I guess your definition of good basketball and mine are totally different.

Coffee beats LC at the buzzer with a full court pass- Christian Laettner like shot from Vinson.. LC played their guts out. Coach Tipps and his girls deserve a lot of credit. 

The lack of cohesive offensive play is going to catch up with them in the district tournament I’m afraid. But give them credit, they just keep rolling and wins are really all that matters.

Tullahoma beats Lincoln Co by 7 at Lincoln Co and trailed for 3 periods and they are playing good ball lol

Coffee Co beats Lincoln by 18 at Lincoln and they are struggling OMG 

Step away from the KOOL-AID

I said neither of those things. 

I said Tullahoma was “playing better”, not that they were “playing good ball”.

I said Coffee didn’t seem to be playing their “best ball”. 

Both of these statements are relative to each particular team and and my opinion- not to your definition of  “good basketball”.

I still believe the tournament will be exciting I think that Coffee wins the tournament most likely. I think 2-4 is anybody’s. 

8-AAA is not the strongest district, so yes Coffee is 8-0, but a good chunk of those win margin points come from an extremely week Columbia team. 

It’s not a matter of “koolaid” drinking, I’m just looking at the whole picture and the long run. Pearlball reiterates exactly what I was getting at in the first place in terms of offensive cohesion, and it’s definitely true that if we put a W in the column we move on and keep plugging.

Again, this is an opinion/discussion board, so please don’t twist my words.

Tullahoma dared Garretson to shoot and she did to the tune of 24.  Vinson had 19 missing only 1 shot on the night.  Good Senior Night for Morgan, Spry, and Vaughn.  Two road games next week at Winchester and Shelbyville.

Vinson does what she does putting up double doubles almost nightly to the point it’s almost taken for granted. All the girls have had great moments throughout the season. Tonite was Jenna’s turn. It wasn’t a bad strategy on Tullahoma’s part, but she really answered the call. They played their best game tonight in a few weeks. Hopefully they are coming together at the right time. The team on the floor tonight was the team we saw before Christmas. Proud of those ladies for clinching the reg season championship tonight.

    • The winds of change are blowing in Hartsville.     Will be an interesting follow.    Would go back to the 90s and turn black the clock!
    • Did he promise you a coordinator job or something if he ever got a head coaching job? He resigned? He was at the top of the dugout last night calling plays. I wonder if those 30+ parents would let him give their kids a ride. by the way the board meeting was last night and it was not mentioned. must have been at the work session earlier this week which is not public. must be trying to keep it quiet.  Since you know so much, how much is Robbie Atwood willing to pay Adam Cothron?  Didn't you slander Eden earlier on here? You also didn't know he was a faculty coach again so how much do you really know? Some people outside this county baffle me with their need to slander others.    
    • He resigned smh, and have you ever heard of charged but not convicted. Some people in this county baffle me with their need to slander others. Have you asked any of the 30+ parents that signed a petition to get him reinstated at the board meeting this week how they feel about this? Just let it play out, at the end of the day the only people that will bring TC back are the ones that know what its about at its core.    People hate losing and they aren't used to it at TC. I for 1, and I'm sure others too, understand having a dip in talent and not being able to compete for a state title every year. But in the past, TC teams have outworked more talented teams, they didn't continuously lose the turnover battle, they didn't commit 8+ penalties in several games each season, and I believe several of the folks in town that want Blake out feel as if he is neglecting the history of the program. This is from a source that used to be extremely close to the program (not me lol), Blake gets out of school midday and the players show up and there is no practice plan or itinerary.  I also understand those that are on team Blake, when he has loads of talent, he wins. He does know football and he is a tremendous DC, and if the rumors are true then he will do great things. As for the board member issue, it is what it is, everyone that's true to the county know that and nothing has changed. I agree though that they should strive to make the facilities as good as we can. And as far as potential candidates, I agree there is very few options. West, Vetetoe (yes I know), and couple others that could have some interest. Whatever happens is massive for the program during a pivotal time before the next big wave of stars make their way through.
