Shot Clock

Word on the street is that the B&G Tournament won't be using the shot clock for the BIGGEST tournament in our state. All teams must agree for it to be used and the one and only Hartville said NO.

Also, seems like a wasted expense for 2024 season if a school only hosts 1 tournament. Let's say an early December tournament hosts and teams play 3 games for an $8-10,000 expense?

Why not make Class 5-6 schools use it as a trial run?

COC Week 5 Pickem'

How do you know the best place for eats in like every town? Lol. Personally I prefer Social BTB before going to Junge but Hacketts isn't bad. Just slow.
I'm well traveled and well fed! I've heard Social is really good. It's just hard for me to pass anywhere close to Hacketts and not stop in. But you're right, their service isn't built for speed.
Webb fans probably drift over to Flag City to drink away the memory of what they just witnessed. Or maybe to celebrate, who knows. But either way that's where they'll be. Neosho doesn't have to play Nixa, could they go undefeated regular season? Wouldn't that be something.
I've always wanted to stop in Flag City. Drive by it like every single trip to Webb, just never have. There's a big BBQ/southern style cooking joint I've always wanted to try too. Can't remember if it's officially in Webb or not. But man, it looks good from the outside. Kind of looks like Flat Creek in Republic from the outside.
You're probably right, I overlooked Joplin and Republic as a good game this week. If I wasn't so intrigued by the game at Webb that's probably where I would go.
I'd say Webb/Neosho is probably the more intriguing game. How good is Neosho? Is Webb really THAT bad? Kinda looking for those questions to be answered.

COC Week 5 Pickem'

Nixa @ Lebanon -- Nixa, as big as they want. Dowds will be busy early.

Republic @ Joplin -- REPMO, but this one is a game. I think it's more compelling than Webb and Neosho. I feel this is a one score game and could go either way. If I'm the REPMO fans, I get to Joplin around 5:00 and hit Hacketts before the game.

Ozark @ Waynesville -- O Tigers ROLL. 4th quarter won't take long. Ozark crowd will invade Hoppers early to celebrate.

Carthage @ Willard -- Carthage. Name the score.

Neosho @ Webb City -- Neosho. It just feels wrong to type this. Webb isn't very good on offense or defense. They're especially vulnerable to the pass, and well, Neosho likes to pass. A lot. It still just feels wrong, but this is just how bad Webb is.

Glendale @ Kickapoo -- Poo. Don't think it's close. More importantly, will anyone in Springfield even know or care this game is happening?
That’s a big assumption Hackett’s will be moving fast enough to get there at 5:00 and be at Junge by 7:00! And I agree with your assessment of Glendale vs the Poo, that’s more of a soccer and basketball rivalry than a football one.

They always call it—you said

Why complain when it disproves everyone who bad mouthed me last week who said “they always call that it’s not just for KC!!!!”

I accept your apologies.
Toots, they called this one...this wasn't even close to PI and it was under 2 minutes if I remember correctly. If not it was right around the 2 minute mark. What is your excuse for this?
