Could you please, please, please? Just for tonight? Some of us are actually upset about what happened. Not gleeful and loving dancing on the grave like you ghouls.

Why because he is correct, she is a awful coach, any high school coach would have used a timeout to go over everything with the girls.

Yea I coach Rec for 10 & 11 yo boys basketball. (4th and 5th grade).. I’ve been coaching for about 2.5 years.

I have not had a team this season score on us on any OOB plays from the sideline or baseline..

Yet we have scored at least 20 points on other teams on these plays… our goal is 8–10 points a game.

For her to draw up a play like that is literally the dumbest and worst coaching you will ever see.

It is basically fully special Ed coaching. No way to coach worse. Like anyone could just go to Man, or Man with a safety player and leave the inbound unguarded.. (this is what I would hv done)…

They would hv thrown a TO or tipped out, game over….

This is Bad Rec level coaching for little kids.. not even close to SEC ball.. Truly Pitiful!

Here's a shocking thought, only the team that possesses the ball can call a time out. So, what should Coach Harper have done? Perhaps run to mid court and throw herself to the floor? She was waving her arms and yelling to the girls, but no one apparently understood what she wanted them to do.

For the hundreth time, she did not call time out bc she did not want to give them a chance to draw up a lob play, which was exactly what they would have done, and what TK was doing back in the paint. Dawn said she would have done the same. But Kamilla did not go all the way to the paint, she stopped at the arc. TK did not react to that, and Rickea, who had been guarding Raven who threw the pass, also did not react to get over on Kamilla as she shot. Not sure she could have gotten there, but she could have waved. None of this was Kellie Harper's fault.

What's wrong, not comfortable beating up the players who left their guts on the floor and had a fateful lapse? Or how about poor JP who missed those two free throws? Don't you want to light her up?

This won't stop any of you, but none of this was Kellie's fault, and in fact she made some great adjustments in the second half. Also, just keeping this team together and believing after the pummelling they took in the first quarter was incredible.

Why do some people even bother watching the games? Some only seem to be happy when we lose so they can gripe about the coaches/players. If they had managed to be the only team to beat the Lady ...... probably would not have even bothered to post. Most seem to have forgotten that the team we most to on a last second prayer hasn't lost to ANYONE this year. Just give everyone a break and don't watch anymore? That way you don't risk your health and take up valuable server space with the incessant repetitive lunacy.

Coaching themselves??? It’s not like Harper is not telling them right she just isn’t getting through. Now it may be time for another coach but if you want to see a keystone cluster that would be it. This team doesn’t play smart basketball how is policing themselves going to help that. This is on the all time stupidest things I have ever heard.

Now if she told them not to foul unless it was to prevent a easy score then that wasn’t her fault. If we hadn’t wasted that foul we win. Now if she told the players to guard there players tight and too make it tough without fouling, then yes she did all she could do. If it happened like that it’s on the players I reckon. But if it did happen like that her players have trouble listening. Them were 2 brain dead plays by a team that wants to play championship ball. Some coaches can’t get through to there players enough. This group has selective listening and a bad lack of consistency. They either get tougher or wilt from here. What happened at the end is unacceptable no matter how good of comeback.

Yeah, 23 points in the first half is great coaching.

Congratulations that no 10 or 11 year old has scored on an OOB play. You sound like a coaching savant. Why don’t you apply if CKH gets let go.

That is the whole point. Anybody can call basic OOB defense plays.

Pathetic coaching is what we are witnessing.
Just like Butch, Pruitt, Dooley, Holly, and countless others who everyone defended on this board.

Do we like Coach Kelly? Yes….
Is she an awful coach? Yes…

And I’m sure the other coaches in your league are college caliber coaches. Comparing 10 or 11 year olds to college basketball is just silly.

This had to be the worst exhibition of coaching with 1.1 seconds left in a game since Dooley sent the team out for their team picture on the last play of the LSU game. Truly pathetic.
