Strange times. Never thought I’d see the day a Science Hill basketball team is as bad as they are.

I personally don’t think the inner City Kids are interested. Maybe a little bit more in football. But not basketball for some reason. Maybe the opportunities to just hang out with friends. Play a plethora of video games etc. Maybe some are just interested in making a little $ with a part time job. I don’t have the answer. But i Do Know that SH has Jr an Sr level athletes walking the halls who could make the Hill a tough opponent as usual. Apparently it’s trickled into the Middle Schools as Well. They need to hire a Coach who can “change the culture” from grade school up through Middle. 
Otherwise SH is going to continue to see these results for the not so seeable future I fear.

The Question is WHY. It’s the only inner City school in JC. You cannot tell me they don’t have the athletes. They Always have great athletes. And lots of them since Spurrier’s time there. Heck their freshman team usually is better than a lot of 1A and 2A complete teams. I’m totally shocked. Especially in Basketball.

Why does ETSU's coach's kid go to DB instead of the hill kinda a slap in the face to the JC

lol, that's the Science Hill mindset. Go-3-23 on the season with two wins against DB = successful season.

Pretty bad when Crockett beats Science Hill

I’m fairly certain his younger son goes to university middle and is pretty talented as well.

This has already been answered in another thread.  The Hill didn't have a coach in place back in the offseason when Oliver was looking for a place to play, so he chose D-B.

This is accurate as well from my understanding.  The younger brother is in the Johnson City school system and is expected to play for the Hill.

I think he would be better off coming over to Kingsport. I'm not sure if the head coach at SH is going to work out.

If ETSU doesn't get any better, the coach will not be there.

The younger Oliver kid will be at Science Hill next year. 

Science Hill seems to be playing most opponents close for the majority of their games and then opponents are pulling away in the final few min to win. Toppers are young and they don’t have much size. They lost their top 3-4 scorers from last years team. Everyone who has close connections to the program knew this year was going to be rough. Higgins knew it was going to be difficult.
