AAA Championship

It is not easy to be a referee. The refs in the championship game are good guys and doing the best that they can. The problem I have is the quality of refs the tssaa brings in for the state tournament compared to the revenue the tssaa brings in. Show me what you invest in and I will show you what you value. Teams work too hard to not deserve quality officiating from their organization in a state championship game.

HARD NUMBERS - In her 4 years as a starter at LHS, Addie Porter piled up 1600-plus points, 600-plus rebounds, 400-plus assists and 300-plus steals.  As a 5-5 guard she led the team in rebounds for each of the past two seasons. As a senior, she was District 9AAA regular season and tournament MVP as well as MVP of the Region 5AAA tournament.  Will graduate with 12 athletic letters having played 4-years of softball and volleyball in addition to her 4-years with the Devilettes. 

In the win over Bradley Central, Porter led both teams in points (14) and rebounds (8) AND hit the game-winner off a nasty crossover move. In the win over Hardin County, she had a double-double with 18 & 12. In the finals, she led all scorers with 19 points. Thru three games in M-Boro last week, she played all 96 minutes, averaging 17 points / 8 rebounds per game AND her teammates love her.

So, how are you related to her?

Not sure why not liking Porter? She pretty much took her team on her back in Q4 to win the Bradley game & get to Championship game. She was for sure the difference in the Bradley game. Great player.

Not that I don't like her, she's got alot of heart, but she's nothing special.  When you take a large volume of shots you're gonna score.  Her percentages aren't anything spectacular, they just built the team around playing defense and letting her fire at will.  Alot of teams do that, seldom do those teams win it all.

She also takes more shots than anyone else on the court, every single night.

    • 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. 
    • McKenzie had no trouble with Huntingdon.  
    • Has BA landed any cornfed cowboys to block up front?
    • Yea I agree I will say tho I was a big “ v “ fan if an  opening ever did happen I think it would’ve been good to see him have a shot coming from a power house like Oakland. I’m sure he’s learned a lot from Kevin.  I bet he would bring a really good offense scheme IMO But after all this I just dunno anymore.  Whatever happens with the rumors an such if it did come to and opening I think this messes it all up.  The board members dreams are slowly slipping away now. I haven’t lived there for awhile I just hear what I hear, but my question is would there be any good potential candidates?? That’s why I don’t understand why people want b s out so bad who else could do any better ?? IMO there’s nothing attractive about it? As I stated earlier I went to the last game last year and taking a leak in a porta Potty is pretty sad and still nothing being done they say ..
