I think there is a difference between playing ball and full-court pressing and jacking up shots constantly. This isn’t the NFL.

pressing and putting up shots is playing ball. Coaches choosing not to do so for the sake of the other team in a blowout is a courtesy, it shouldn’t be an expectation. The coach isn’t being paid to coach both teams.

Sidekicks isn’t on basic cable nearly enough

Not only that, but you couldn’t get this on DVD anywhere last time I checked. Had to order the VHS of it to add to the collection.

Like Lisk said, there is no way you can score that much in a game of girls basketball unless you are pressing and forcing turnovers and shooting quickly.

Why isn’t this coach just running out the clock? There’s no high school shot clock in girls basketball. This is inexcusable.

Dribbling out the clock and passing the ball around would be more insulting than the final score was. Play ball, the score is the score.

yes. all you can ask of a coach is to not press. to ask the girls to slow down, not try, don;t shoot.. tis bullshit

Games last 32 minutes (unless Indiana is different than common high school rules), which means 3.3 points per minute. There is no shot clock, that’s a pretty insane scoring rate. I don’t know how you get there unless you turn the opponent over constantly, or the other team keeps shooting every 15 seconds.

Shouldn’t mean the other team should sit there and dribble out the clock which benefits nobody.

I am guessing Arilington’s stands had some Grandma’s holding babies while the mom’s played.

Obviously, I have no idea how they ran up the score that much. But let’s just assume the coach took out the best players, stopped any sort of pressure defense and told his players to stop fast-breaking. If he did all that and the score still was what it was, then I’d say there’s not much that can be done about it.

When this comes up every now and again I always point out my senior year homecoming football game we got beat 90 – 7 and at no point was the opposing team trying to run up the score. They had third stringers in before half. We had a shitload of injured starters and just sucked. Sometimes teams are just bad. Shouldn’t mean the other team should sit there and dribble out the clock which benefits nobody.

THIS!

I have no problem when pros do this (if it was possible in the pros), but this coach was being an asshole.
