In this case if you don’t have evidence that Upperman tanked what you are saying is BS. See I like to stir the pot as much as anyone but I believe you leave kids alone. If you have evidence like who said what, when, where etc. name it. If not you are questioning the character of a group of kids. Please stop. If you got beef with adults talk about them. But saying a particular team tanked is talking about the kids that make up said team. THIS Looking at the regular season meetings I can’t see any reasoning to think a team purposefully lost. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have watched some games where teams have played bad and had weird substitutions when it absolutely benefitted them the most. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m not saying every game is on the up and up, but without seeing the video I couldn’t see anything shocking about the score. The unfortunate thing about this time of year is that anyone that loses in a game influencing seeding they open themselves up for criticism. The sad reality is that there are many teams who could benefit from taking a loss. And while a lot of people seem to think that fewer teams would solve the problem, there are teams that would be punished. SGC is a solid example, knocking out Fayette Ware in Somerville as the #4 seed. With a win tomorrow over Crockett I have no doubt that they will make it to the ‘boro.

I am not talking about Upperman game. Just talking about District Tournment games over the years around here. They need to go to strictly Regions so the seeding can be accurate. District Tournaments are very corrupt and have been for years. You see missed lay ups in droves, careless Turnovers, missed FT's where sometimes they hit the blackboard, very weird substitutions....TSSAA needs to do away with the District Tournaments and just go to Regions where everyone will play each other all during the year. It is a problem and has been. The Riverdale fiasco won't ever happen again but people that watch basketball year round know when teams are not giving their all in these District Tournaments. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great win for Jackson South Side last night as they beat a real good Creekwood team. They have a big time Freshman player maybe D-1. Congratulations to the Lady Hawks. They are in District 12 I believe playing in the Middle Tennessee bracket. South Side seems to be really playing good at the right time.

Looks like their substate is Macon County or Station Camp. Not 100% but that is what I am seeing from Region 5. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well looks like they had their biggest test last night against Creekwood and passed it big time. Chester County is pretty good as well. Dyersbirg looks like they are in stride. South Side with a big win last night. We played Creekwood before Christmas. Pretty good team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
