Shot clock in state

We can't even get the regular clock operators to do it right. Clock is not needed!

 

Shot clock is absolutely needed in high school basketball. Without it, makes it darn near impossible to overcome double digit deficits. Sitting on the ball on offense for multiple minutes does not help the game, nor these players who want to play at the next level.

Completely agree

That would put a lot of stress on the REFS.  The schools would need to pay for a ECO just like they do in high school football.   I think it is a great idea but there are a lot of logistical things to consider and obstacles to overcome.   It would also have to be state-wide which could put a burden on some of our rural counties to implement when it comes to budgets.   I am all for it but it would take quite a bit of work and a lot of commitment from lots of areas throughout the state.

It definitely won't be easy to implement. Probably a big reason for the initial discussion regarding feasibility. I do think it's needed, but as you said, it's going to take a lot of work to make it happen

I've said for several years it would be a good thing for high school basketball. There will be obstacles to overcome as has been stated. I do think over all if is good for the game. In rural areas where schools of significant enrollment differences play each other maybe not. Holding the ball can be an equalizer at times. It has already been approved at the national level just not forced to implement. Additional personal as well as cost to make it work. Yars ago the 3 point lines was to be the ruination of high basketball. I think it has survived just fine.

About 1% go on to play at the "next level". Terrible argument there.

Is a shot clock needed? Maybe, but it will probably only go off 2-3 times per game and that is because a shot airballed so it didn't reset. One high school game in a thousand these days has any type of "stall". Games played literally 5 nights a week and you might see one that was an actual stall tactic. Low scoring games now are usually the result of terrible shooting and/or shot selection. No fundamentals being taught just jack it up however you can get it up there and maybe you make one.

The game has lost its way.

Like it don't like it. Doesn't really matter it's coming all that is to figure out is when. It's only a matter of time.

 

May 13, 2021 The National Federation of State High School Associations (NFHS) has approved a 35-second shot clock for high school basketball, starting with the 2022-23 season. The NFHS released a statement on Wednesday, making it clear that the use of a shot clock will not be a mandate.

If implemented, the governing body needs to be the one to fit the bill.  I am sick and tired of getting stuck with the bill.  Also, their needs to be an official who works the clock.  Don't have to pay them what a regular official might make, but something.  This should also be paid from the TSSAA.

    • They’ve both gotten worse. I’ve seen enough games to know that. 
    • The only two transfers that Bearden has gotten that went on to play college football were a defensive back from Karnes, who transferred here way before the new coaching staff got here, and a running back from Carter, who went on to play at Maryville College. Both players received those offers while at Bearden, and both players got a diploma from Bearden High School. Therefore, they are Bearden kids, and you can’t do anything about that.   The transfer from Seymour didn’t win the job, what do you expect two quarterbacks to start at the same time? He played great on JV when he could stay healthy, and when he came in on varsity, he did great. The quarterback position is definitely going to be in good hands when the current starting quarterback leaves, but until then, they’re just going to be battling it out like every good quarterback competition does. The current starting quarterback has his flaws, and that is in the pass game, but what he doesn’t have flaws is running and scrambling, and if you go back and watch any game, which I’m sure you didn’t watch any, we used him very often, and when we needed a deep ball, we brought in the transfer from Seymour. The starting quarterback last year will be a senior this year, and the Seymour transfer will be a junior, so the Seymour transfer is definitely going to get his spotlight. He may even win the job this year. Football isn’t about who the newspaper thinks is the best kid. The best kid in the position will win the starting job, and I trust the coaching staff more than a newspaper or article to pick my starting QB.
    • I mean, we’ve only gotten two transfers that went on to play college football, one who went to UT Martin came his second semester junior year before the new coaching staff was here, and the other one went on to play at Maryville College, in which I don’t believe he had any interest prior to transferring.
    • An FYI: To see how an opponent has done against another opponent since 2001- go to the game by clicking on one of the teams. Click the G beside the game. For example, Milan: The info will show you the previous matchups and other info.
    • All these college signees went yo other schools for 3 years, were getting college offers then transferred to Bearden. It’s not like this staff did much to develop them.    The BBall coaches son and the Seymour transfer were some of the most talented QBs in the region, and you guys developed them into QBs who might complete one pass a game.
