Accoding to CoachT, Marion's record is 8-4 following this loss.... it appears to me that Marion laid down more so than Bradley ran it up...

Marion Co. plays in the worst District in the state 7AA and is certainly not as good as their record indicates. I watch these teams regularly and several mid level class A teams could win this district with ease. Look at  Cumberland’s out of district scores and compare them to their district wins. Marion is racking up wins vs bad teams they are currently in 2nd place behind Cumberland that beat them 71-29.

Now to the issue of running up the score there is supposed to be a running clock, and teams can ask not to play the 2nd half or 4th qtr. Bradley’s JV/freshman/jr high teams are probably better than Marion. It was probably scheduled as a boys showdown more than anything.

Man I don’t even know what to say, but I guess that’s what you want.  You call someone a liberal hack and reference MSNBC and CNN, yet you started this thread like the Bearettes did something wrong.  That seems like the Democratic mentality to me. 

I thought the same thing... snowflake & victim mentality for sure.

But this didn’t help ether team, the Marion coach should have never scheduled this game in the first place, why would he think he’s team could compete, just have another practice.

Yeah I agree with this. I’m not advocating for the Bradley coach, but the Marion coach shouldn’t have put the girls in this game to begin with. So he/she deserves some blame as well.

I was going to ask about the running clock.  Did that happen?

I have read all these posts and would just say that teams like Bradley have trouble even getting non district games! Probably should not have played but do you expect them to play just 20 games. Soddy and ooltewah were district games . I know for a fact that many schools would not play Bradley. I mean they have played 5 defending state champs and  then #1 bearden and previous #1 Farragut. Ensworth came to Bradley and won as did Blackman and I think those will be replayed next year at different locations. I feel for Marion but running clock was used! We were down one starter but when you play you have to play hard or better off not playing. It was tough but some of the complainers need to step up and schedule Bradley and show them how to play!!

The previous Marion coach did not have the schedule completed when they left and Marion realized they still needed games to have a full schedule as did BCHS. The games were scheduled because of that. The first game at MCHS was not played due to water damage to their floor. It will not be rescheduled.

It will really be interesting to see how Bradley does now that their stud PG transferred to Cleveland. That region just got interesting.
