Message to the HI coaches:
Spurger doesn't use a running clock when the game becomes a blow out.
I have witnessed this twice in HI, both in Jr. high games w/ Spurger. One last week w/ the Jr. girls & one when this Boys Varsity team was in Jr. high.

That may be, however, the coaches in HI know when to back down. Especially when the other team only has 5 players total and 3 of those 5 are sixth graders. They know when enough is enough and you drop back and if nothing else play half court man. They have more class than to purposely try to humilate a group of kids not even in high school yet. And just to let you know it was at the request of the officials that the clock be run.

Sideline fan, I see on the post about the Evadale/HI game that Evadale won by 49. Did they drop back tot he running clock or half court man idea once the game became obvious?

If the rules change during a game, no matter how lopsided it has become, what is the message being taught then. I agree, the better team should put in the bench and try to make it a better situation, but change rules?

If it was me, at the end of the game I would like to know that I gave it all that I had and the team had. It is what it is. I think it would suck to know that the rules were changed more than getting my crap beaten out of me.

[/quote]And 4 of the 5 starters for spurgers jh girls are 7th grade so you will see them again.
They played zone and back the press off untill yall started running the clock on time outs.
that is a heck of a game plan in the fourth period,last 5 or so mins call a full time out watch the clock run
and soon as you get back on he floor call another one.(three times in a row) What are you teaching your young players, if you get down by 15 points its ok to give up. ::) ::)
