Take the blinders off. SC is advocating for the Governor to shut the state down... he needs to keep his opinion where his voters reside and his jurisdiction ends.

West Tennessee Healthcare is a joke. Yes, they’re doing their best at the main hospital, but the hospital out north is like 75% empty. Hundreds of people in Jackson are lobbying for the WTH to make the north hospital as the “Covid” hospital, I just don’t know why they’re not doing it. It’s like, they’re not using all of their resources despite being crammed.

Well if you need his office information I can find it for you! This is a sports group! Keep all political cheap out of here! 

Fortunately, I have no need for interaction with Madison County... when you brought Memphis's situation into the conversation, you opened the door for a comparison. Politics are fair game when it's critical to our season being played, or flushed needlessly down the toilet. Football season had it's challenges but was successfully completed, and I'd like to see winter and spring sports have the same opportunity.

If anyone would like to discuss politics off the thread, I'm your guy.

I personally know 3 of the 4 men voted for on election day in Nov 2020.

Have direct access to your Governor's ofc (have been invited to the last two Governors' Inaugural Ball), both US Senators, both neighboring US Congressmen and a plethora of state and local legislators. To his credit, Scott's door has always been open everytime I've been to see him, which is frequent.

But I digress from my alma mater.

We, as of Monday Dec 14, 2020, suck as a team. We have little chemistry, no identity and suffer from  inconsistent play on both sides of the court. Tonight's game at Bolivar and tomorrow's game at Scotts Hill have both been postponed. So it looks like the proverbial shirts vs skins pickup games in practice.

So to prospective opponents, you better get us while we are down. Which is now. After the aforementioned issues are resolved in December 2020 by our Hall of Fame coach, we'll be back to winning by 20+ even against the highest ranked opposition.

Now's your chance to take advantage of us. Come and get it.

Because we'll soon be back to kicking your @$$.

Looks like y’all picking up where y’all left off last year. Got a question non basketball related. There was a poster on here thought he was a South Side fan. Went by Realistic fan 45 I think it was . Haven’t seen him on the boards in a while. When someone on the T much as he was, you can’t help but wonder. Thought you might know?

He's good. Saw him at the game this past Saturday at Bartlett.

It was a guy that posted on coach T all the time on these basketball boards. I assumed he was a Soth Side fan cause he talked about em a lot on here. Went by Realistic Fan on coach T. He posted a lot and hadn’t seen him on here in a year or so. You must not know who I’m even talking about. No big deal just hadn’t seen him on here in a while, just wondering where he went. 

I'm still here. I'm just hear to read the comments nowadays. Back under my rock I go

Just saw that SS lost to ECS...anybody got details on the game?

We played probably the worst game that I have seen us play. We missed probably 12-15 free throws, we was 2/15 or so from 3pt. We wasn’t playing defense. They shot probably 60% from the 3pt line and they made their free throws. We got down 10 wit 3 minutes left in the game. We started playing South Side basketball & cut their lead to 1 with 2 minutes left. We then had chance after chance to take the lead but turned the ball over down 1. We played horrible except the last 3 minutes of the game.

So ECS can shoot the rock and make free throws?

    • Way late on this post, but I do believe that I want to at least weight in so to speak lol. I wrestled NAIA competed against some of the best wrestler over all a crossed the divisions and felt great about my college wrestling experience. I think people make the mistake in believe that wrestling some how gets easier as a sport at the smaller college divisions it doesn't the training is mostly the same. I have that on good authority from a coach who was a D1 all-American. it's more the commitment level of the competitors that is different. There is talented wrestlers that can go D1 at any level in the smaller division. sub in Sammy Shires for one he would have done fine on a DI team. He chose a work life ratio that suited him. It's not about talent it's commitment are you going to make training and studying the sport the center of your world cause that's what it takes: NO MATTER HOW TALATENTED BEFORE HAND YOU ARE.  If so then D1 is for you and striving for success at that level is for you like Mr. Palmer said it's what your willing to put in. Now coaches if you have a successful wrestler who fits that bill then by all means D1 is a great option they will see some success no matter how small, but if they are not that committed along with being talented and a killer and you know it then your doing them wrong.  You don't have to tell athletes that you don't think they are D1 tell them to keep their options open to take all their visits to consider all the divisions regardless of their goals. college recruiting visits have you most times wrestle against their current wrestlers coaches and athletes  will find out real quick it's not easy no matter where you go. That way when they make their decision it's a sound one that's based on well rounded experiences.     BobCorker, and oceansize42 I believe what you are thinking is correct but for different reasons. TN wrestler's have the talent... it's a commitment level change. TN wrestlers aren't used to having to put themselves through the level of commitment required and kills them on the D1 level.    WrestlingGod, I agree you should push kids to pursue their dreams, but not at the cost of common sense period... we have to much of that going around this country already. Dreams can turn to poison when these wrestler are not educated on what it truly takes. In TN  a kid who understands wrestling to a high level can be successful with small amounts of hard work. They think their definition of hard work is enough for D1 that is the mistake not the "talent/understanding".  Over-all though we do not celebrate NAIA,D2,D3, or Juco success in this state like other states do. GA/AL celebrates all it's college wrestlers success a crossed the  board no matter the division. Why? because it's hard... I have gone to all the divisions National championships let me tell you to be a all-American at any is impressive especially D2 or NAIA. those guys can scrap and not one of those AA's are an easy match. all of them were state placers or champs multiple times in their high school careers. does that at all sound easy to place at? TN does not give those guys enough credit or shout outs period. it's an over sight because of this D1 or it's less than meaningless   mentality on this site and in this state. GA/AL is better then us on the highest stage because they send guys to D2,NAIA,D3 ect. they come back understanding the sport better then their pervious coaches, and give back and that cycles to athletes readiness to go D1 with clearer understanding of what it takes to be competitive day 1 freshman year.             My post isn't to support one way or the other but to just consider that both sides have merit and that both work when the system in TN. by system I mean coaches are the better educated on preparing athletes for each level they want and should pursue.        
    • If you think McKenzie could've beat Riverside I have a bridge you might like to buy. 
    • Hate to hear Ricky is heading to the old folk's home!
    • By recruiting, I mean members of a coaching staff are talking to, meeting with, giving tours, to students, and their guardians, that are not zoned for their school.    there’s no way that many non Bearden kids just showed up all at once without being recruited. It can’t be a coincidence that all those kids also went through the middle school all star game your boss puts on every year. 
    • Not sure how I would put it as recruiting perhaps kids trying to better their career by going to a head coach and coaching staff with connections all over college football that gets them the opportunity to go play college football and be coached by a coach with a pretty good track record.
