You never give up on a team or a season. I've seen teams that have had as bad of a record as OC and go far in the tourneys. At the same time you can evaluate your players and see who wants to play and those that don't. I'll agree that it can be a fine line, but coaches can do it. I would imagine that a lot of soul searching is going on all around this program. If not, lock the gym after the girls game.

Most of these guys don't want to play anymore.....some are getting ready for baseball......They won't go far in any tournament...they will be done after they play in the first round of the district.....I'm looking foward to next year anyways because this year gives me headaches....

 

There is no excuse for losing by 30 points or more in so many games this year...

 

So to answer your question, unconcerned, they should start looking to next year!!

i really hate to hear about a program going down so much as obion.attitude has to be the most important motivating factor in whose the hungriest.give me 5 hungry people in any arena any day.sometimes in life you find out what ya made of during the worst of times.somebody can step forward and make a different whether it be a coach or player depending who really wants it more.i remember when i was volunteering as a youth coach i had a girls team that started off to a rocky start.i think a coach has to look at improving in as many areas as possible and constantly build people up in the process.failure remember is a process of success as well.some people accept failure and some people want to do something about it so bad that something deep inside just wants it worse then anyone else.i heard a guy once say the following."put a looser in a winning environment,then, he can chsange his thinking.put a winner anywhere then he can change the environment around him".a friend of mine would always tell me "its all mental".its almost like the train that says "i think i can.i know these are quotes but attitude is a building process for winning.depends on how bad a person wants it.

      Worst thing SC could do is get rid of Dyer. I agree with everything said above.

      Jada Hart, Jasmine Bailey and Kaitlyn Patterson the first two being PG's are all good guards and can handle ball pressure and are good players. Raven Wells will be a good post. There were games this summer where any one of the one's I mentioned were in double figures. Gibson County will control TO's much better this year and they will press more and get back to playing faster. AA is down across the board. I have been all over watching ball. Alcoa jumped to AAA and Jackson County moved down. to A. No telling who wins it this year. I agree Union City, Westview and Gibson County will be a dogfight and must see basketball. Poster insuated that Gibson County has a mental block against Westview. Well give me Maddie Gray and we line up last year and they wouldn't have won a game. Let's see how Westview does this year. Their starting five last year had three transfers in it. Rogers from Obion, Trevathon from Greenfield and Gray from South Fulton. Looks like they swung and missed with the girl from Florida this year so let's see how they do playing with kids from Westview. Gibson County has a really good 7th grade class this year.I have done learned you play with what you got and work them hard and develop them and see what happens. Just keep battling and see what happens. I like our team this year. Very athletic. Every year is the same with injuries and can be catistrophic to any. I watched GC all summer long. South Side and GC was very evenly matched and was a classic war. Hope all stays healthy.

      I think Gibson County is a top five team this next season but I do agree they will drop off a lot after this year.  Westview lost a ton and will be down this season and hopes of returning to glass house again is slim.  The run they have had is super impressive!

      My take on GC for this year: Based on what I saw last year and heard this summer, I’m not sure GC could surprise me next year with any outcome. Wilkins is a great coach - they could win the district and region and go to Murfreesboro. They could also come in third in the district and not get out of region. The two returning starters are very talented but Guru is right that they didn’t always play hard last year. The other three starters are good enough in their roles for GC to be successful. There is no depth. Foul trouble could be a problem - Wilkins may avoid it by playing a lot of zone. An injury would be catastrophic. I hope they have a big year and Wilkins rides off into the sunset in Murfreesboro because, without some significant transfers, there are some tough years coming in the next few.

      Daniel Boone coming down to 3A makes this much tougher. They added a couple transfers to the Flores girl. Cocke Co, Northview, Greeneville, and Daniel Boone - only two headed to Murfreesboro.
