I'll be honest and it's not excuses for DB but the trip to the bahamas takes a lot out of a team.  They played 5 games in 4 days with the pace of play and physicality of the games a lot quicker and tougher than America.  They've looked good this year at times

Sorry but sounds like an excuse to me. Science Hill does the Bahamas tournament virtually ever year and never seems to have much of an issue adjusting once they're back. They opted to play in a tournament in GA this year against some quality competition. Since back they've gone 2-0. Just sayin...

DB has a good team but from what I've seen so far Science Hill, Crockett and Boone all look better.

I don't have a dog in it .  I've been to the tournament in the Bahamas a couple of times and was just saying it does take a lot out of you.  Not saying DB is better than Science Hill just saying that most high school teams don't play two games in a day and 5 in 4 days this time of year.  Plus travel and sun and what it does to you.  Most Thanksgiving tournaments are 2 or 3 games not 5 then turn around and play 2 games as soon as you get back.  That's 7 games in a 10 day period.  That's awesome to hear that Science Hill played so well in theirs Coach Cutlip does a great job. Once again wasn't making excuses for DB or a loss to Science Hill just mentioning as to why their play might be sluggish.

    • Playing high school sports is a privilege not a right.  The college did not have to rescind the scholarship.  Scholarship offers are pulled all the time for a number of reasons. That was 100% their choice.  A coach can keep, cut, or dismiss any player that they want to without reason anytime they want.  Is that the right way to run a program?? I don't think that it is, but these are the facts of the matter. This case has absolutely 0% chance of going in the plaintiff's favor. Futhermore, I'd imagine that these administrators and the coach are a part of some teaching or coaching organization that will cover at least 1 million dollars each in legal fees. Obviously the kid and her family feel like there were "damages" thus the lawsuit.  Unfortunately, the law is not on their side in this case.  
    • Maryville will recapture the loses from last year against West, Bradley and Farragut. The Bearden game will be the tough one but I look for the wheels to come off that ride somewhere down the road because of all the crap that goes on there. I know to many parents there and some of the things I've been told and some of the post a few of them have made on facebook. They all can't be liars.
    • If Heritage moves down and Alcoa moves up the best thing for Heritage is to do what William Blount did when theystopped playing Maryville or meet certain defeat. Honestly can't see Alcoa not moving up the way the county is growing. Might be in the Mountaineers best interest to stay in 5A because none of those teams on their schedule are anything close to Alcoa.
    • I say over as well. Barney, regarding the move to 4A, will the cross-town blowhards move up as well??
