olewave 44 Report Share Posted January 28, 2008 The rule was put in back in the 70's when Carolina was big on stalling and scores were 19-17 or lower. Pocahontas did this before the rule in the 50's and still is the state record for the lowest scoring game 2-1. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hokie07 11 Report Share Posted January 28, 2008 [ QUOTE ] OK Whippersnapper try and listen. It is in the rulebook. You didnt know the rule. Just because two or three officials on one particular night didnt enforce it, you must think nobody does. It is enforced. Rarely does it have to be. Who is not going to come out and play defense if they are way behind? Who is going to hold the ball if they are way behind? Just because at the tender age of 18 you havent seen it doesnt mean that it doesnt happen. End of discussion, next topic please. [/ QUOTE ] All, hail the Queen!

the_truth 10 Report Share Posted January 28, 2008 It was on this date, January 19, 1965, that the most famous basketball game in area history took place at the Brushfork National Guard Armory between the Montcalm Generals and Pocahontas Indians. Coaches Carmen Stauffer (Montcalm) and Tommy Lucas (Pocahontas) squared off in a classic confrontation. Bill Murphy’s single basket was just enough to push Pocahontas to a classic 2-1 win and a spot in the Ripley’s Believe It or Not chronicles. Former Telegraph sports editor Johnny Mayo, who covered the game, has always referred to it as one of the highlights of his great career here at the paper.

beano5 14 Report Share Posted January 28, 2008 if you would just shut the hell up you wouldnt have to worry about us...we know what we are talking about with OUR own coach...the only reason this crap was brought up was because of ignorant fans like yourself keep refering back to the game...

sdm 10 Report Share Posted January 28, 2008 I am still waiting for someone to answer my question about who drew up the game plan that got them the 20 point lead and who coached the first 3 quarters? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beano5 14 Report Share Posted January 28, 2008 the same coach that said the game is in the bag we dont have to do anything in the forth quarter and still win...if he would have just kept the same plan instead of slowing it down Graham would have won...he shifted game plans...

olewave 44 Report Share Posted January 28, 2008 You will not get an answer. They are more worried about talking about the coach. He should be at Dudley Elementary today, make an appointment and talk to him face to face. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
olewave 44 Report Share Posted January 28, 2008 You said he should had slowed it down and stand at half court. Make up your mind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beano5 14 Report Share Posted January 28, 2008 why make appointments when i can go talk to him at church...had he not changed his game plan after the third quarter this game would have went the other way...its not just this one game...he has struggled for years and years not working with the talent as KTom said earlier in this thread Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beano5 14 Report Share Posted January 28, 2008 but since he cant do that...keep running the floor..if he wasnt going to hold the ball then just keep going with what you were doing...instead of putting the kids into situations they dont play as well in....they play good run n gun....slowing them down into a half court offense is like telling Vince Young to play a full game of football without scrambling...you dont do that...

olewave 44 Report Share Posted January 28, 2008 You might need to listen to the sermon. Because somewhere down the line you missed the part about judging people, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
olewave 44 Report Share Posted January 28, 2008 They were still running the floor, that is everyones complaint. Now he is butchered for slowing it down. You want slow or fast. You are chasing your tail in circles. Just admit you do not like the coach as a person. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the_truth 10 Report Share Posted January 28, 2008 Make up your mind Beano, you say he should have held the ball, and now you say he changed game plans. Did you even go to the game? Listen to that sermon about profanity too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beano5 14 Report Share Posted January 28, 2008 oh yeah because neither one of you judge people or curse...they were KILLING grundy because they were running the floor...if you do not hold the ball...then keep running the floor its that simple...since according to you two you cant hold the ball...they should have just kept playing the same way...but since he decided to slow it down and play half court offense they got burned by it...like i said earlier..its not just this game..its the past few years...

olewave 44 Report Share Posted January 28, 2008 Why do you think Coach Jones left? He saw what was coming up and got the heck out of there. Basketball at Graham is no where near football and will never be. Get over it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beano5 14 Report Share Posted January 28, 2008 where in the name of pete did football come from???? Coach Jones left because he got offered a better job...coaching a college team...i have seen him out and talked to him and he has said he would have loved to stay there at Graham but the offer of being a college coach was just too good for him...he makes better money there...he had plenty of talent left after Ahmad i.e. Rob Henry, Steven Brown, TJ Carper, Matt Yost wasnt bad, Kevin Thompson, Jason Palmer, JD Hunter....the talent had nothing to do with Jones leaving...get your facts straight Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
olewave 44 Report Share Posted January 28, 2008 I am a very good friend of "weasie". And I know why he left. Many of those players you mentioned could have not made the other teams starting five in the swd. With that said about swd basketball being not very good, where would that put Grahams talent?

beano5 14 Report Share Posted January 28, 2008 so Rob Steve Carp Kevin JD Palmer and all of them wouldnt even start on other teams...haha...thanks..i needed that laugh... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

futbolking 766 Report Share Posted January 28, 2008 [ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] who did well for the G-Men? [/ QUOTE ] Obviously, if Graham blew a 20+ point lead in the fourth quarter...the coach didn't... IT IS TIME FOR A CHANGE IN THE BASKETBALL PROGRAM AT GRAHAM HIGH SCHOOL... [/ QUOTE ] I agree. Can't protect that big of a lead, the quarters are only 8 minutes long for Pete's sake...
