Coeburn Tourny AAU

**UTFAN** · March 5th, 2006, 09:03 PM

Some observations. Recent tournament at Coeburn had Coeburn's BB Coach's son not playing for either of the 2 Coeburn teams but for another team made up of "the best" players from Gate City, Powell Valley and Norton in the 8th and 9th grade games. What does that tell the other players from Coeburn and the Coeburn fans? Is the coache's son too good to play for Coeburn or are the other Coeburn players not good enough to be on the same team as the coache's son? Looks like the Coeburn coach places his son above the other players. Maybe he should go to PV or GC and get a job there so his son could play on a "good team"

There is a sign before one gets to Coeburn stating some like this "Home of the friendlyest poeple on earth" Whoever wrote that has never played a baseball game or basketball game against Coeburn. They have some of the rudest fans I have ever been around.

Whats the big deal? Maybe he is playing with a traveling team made up of kids from those teams. Plus that gave the other Coeburn basketball players more playing time, and an opportunity to better themselves instead of watching Adkins have to do most everything. Its not like they won't be playing a ton together in the future, and probably have in the past also.

Maybe the AAU team the "coaches son" played on has been committed to this AAU team since December....and we are playing in other tournaments other than this one.. and not one Coeburn person asked him to play on the Coeburn team.. Just a few thoughts..

hahaha that's stupid...it says he wanted to play some ball

There's nothing wrong with having a LPD based AAU team I don't think... aah if people want Adkins out of town.. I'm sure it could be arranged [img]/LDPforum/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

well Coeburn had two teams in this tourney and one had 5 players on it for one game, I think if "coache's son" had been on that he may have been able to "play some ball"

Missing the point..
No-one from Coeburn asked me to play for them..
Not my fault they didn't want me

**gcdevil22** · March 5th, 2006, 09:22 PM

ive got a crazy idea...let's say a group of guys gets together and forms a team...for the sake of this argument we'll call it an "AAU team"...now this "team" will play in a bunch of tournaments together and try to make it to the state tournament...so ya kinda want the best players on that team to give you the best shot...if only there was a kid from coeburn who was one of the best players in the district who could play with this team.....hmmmmm [img]/LDPforum/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smirk.gif[/img]

sound slike coeburn threw together a team at the last minute...who wants to be a part of that?

He is probably playing with them to get better, because i'm sure they'll play better competition. Therefore, it may help COEBURN in Basketball!
