True. WC had a double digit lead, but RBS wouldn't give up. Flemming was very impressive for RBS. WC post C. Reed has been  out with an injury 2 or 3 games now and will be out until mid January. Her absence definitely hurts WC.

I really like Flemming!   I have since the first time I saw her play in middle school.  Getting Reed back will help WC but I think they just overlooked RBS in this game.   Reed wouldn't be the one guarding Flemming anyway.  And WC has plenty of posts.   This is where I usually post my annual "Why does WC schedule itself with the weakest bracket every single year" post  but by now its just normal to me so I won't mention it.  :lol:

Of course Reed wouldn't guard Flemming, but Reed on the court = more points for WC. If you host a Christmas tourney it would be rather dumb to schedule yourself against the best team in the tournament in the opening round. Duh! It's what host teams do.

They didn't have problems scoring points.  They had problems stopping the other team from scoring.   If Reed was back,  Powers wouldn't have had 35.   I doubt they would have scored more than 74 pts regardless.   As for the host, they didn't just give themselves an easy opening round.  They put best 3 opponents in the opposite bracket.  If your goal is to book some guaranteed wins and maybe a trophy then mission accomplished.  If you goal is to be better at the end of the tournament then you likely achieved nothing.   Duh...

Cookeville wouldn't put WC in their bracket if they hosted a tournament and they certainly wouldn't play WC first. We played a solid RBS team last night and if we beat Baylor tonight we'll play either a solid York team or a VERY solid Souh Gibson team. Hopefully they're all guaranteed wins.

Its kinda like going to cookeville and having to deal with their scorekeepers and clock people. They cant count nor keep time.

Most Host Teams are going to try to schedule in their favor in order to make the finals.  Nothing new there.  Still going to have to play the best team from other side of the bracket in order to win tournament.  

I didn’t say it didn’t happen.  They should get a decent matchup in Final.  But we are talking about a state champion caliber team.  I wasn’t saying anything negative towards the team.  They are very good.  My point is what do they get out of those games?  Let’s be real they better have higher goals than playing for a Franks trophy!  They should be playing the best competition to get them ready for the journey ahead.   Moving on….let’s see how this plays out.

    • And can you tell me who those two quarterbacks were, and every kid that was put into college from Bearden is a Bearden kid? It’s kind of why they graduated from Bearden.   and I would definitely not consider ETSU “waste”…
    • Most of this is complete gibberish. But the one part I could decipher is putting kids in college. This coaching staff hasn’t put a single Bearden kid in college. They completed wasted one of the best WRs in East TN and have ruined two talented QBs. All because they’re in over their heads. 
    • Well, I’d hope the new coaching staff thinks they are all that because they can always walk around the school, anytime they want, thinking that, especially for what they’ve done for the student athletes and the players, putting more kids in college in his first season than the old coaching staff did in numerous years combined, but we will just sweep over that because I know you don’t like facts. But trust me, nobody wanted Mr. Big britches, made the star player switch to quarterback, which is ultimately the reason he ended up transferring to play the position. He loved, but unfortunately, had to be at another school because Mr. Big Britches doesn’t like when a teenager knows more than him, but can’t expect much coming from a guy who used all class throwing pencils up into the ceiling and making fun of football kids who were failing class right to their face, and in front of numerous students, even projecting on the board most of the time.
    • After that first paragraph, I can see why you’re a TA and not a teacher. Have you made the move from South Knoxville to Bearden yet?    Maybe he left because he is an actual teacher and coach, and didn’t want to be associated with a group of foul mouthed middle school coaches who like to pretend they’re big time. 
    • Yeah and the coach is gone. Whole bizarre situation here. We played them a couple of times at MTSU last few years. She was a player for sure.
