Farragut has 3 big time D1 commits in Raby (Vandy) Fullington (UNC) & Pence (UT) along with 2-3 other commits/ signees & HVA has 2 big pitcher prospects in Neely (UT) & Thompson (uncommitted) alING with 2-3 other commits/ signees.

 

There are a ton of good players & teams in TN in 2015. Maybe one of the deepest talent pools ever in TN. Siegel, Riverdale, Ravenwood, & Houston all are very loaded. Should be a good year for HS baseball in TN.

I think they have to be two of the top teams in TN for sure. Did the kid from Farragut sign with someone else besides UNC?? He isn't listed as one of their signees:

I spoke with Buckner today & Fullington had to retake a class in the fall & is signing in the spring signing period. I had a cross checker tell me that Fullington had the best swing in the state & one of the best he'd ever seen in HS. He said he is very young physically & hasn't grown into his body yet & is still weak but will be a beast at UNC once he matures.

Retake a class in the Fall? Sounds like a real good student

UNC is not your average school to get accepted into & apparently, he was offered & accepted to SEC schools & other D-1 schools (Miss St. Ole Miss, Auburn, Clemson & others) but just really loves UNC for some reason. I wish the kid all the best this season & in the future.

 

So, back to the original question of this thread, Are Farragut & HVA possibly the two best teams in TN this year? It seems there is an unusual amount of very high level talent in TN this year.

I would say yes to Farragut and I don't know about who is next. HV will be very good but how about CAK and Catholic ?? How much did they lose from last year?

    • Did he promise you a coordinator job or something if he ever got a head coaching job? He resigned? He was at the top of the dugout last night calling plays. I wonder if those 30+ parents would let him give their kids a ride. by the way the board meeting was last night and it was not mentioned. must have been at the work session earlier this week which is not public. must be trying to keep it quiet.  Since you know so much, how much is Robbie Atwood willing to pay Adam Cothron?  Didn't you slander Eden earlier on here? You also didn't know he was a faculty coach again so how much do you really know? Some people outside this county baffle me with their need to slander others.    
    • He resigned smh, and have you ever heard of charged but not convicted. Some people in this county baffle me with their need to slander others. Have you asked any of the 30+ parents that signed a petition to get him reinstated at the board meeting this week how they feel about this? Just let it play out, at the end of the day the only people that will bring TC back are the ones that know what its about at its core.    People hate losing and they aren't used to it at TC. I for 1, and I'm sure others too, understand having a dip in talent and not being able to compete for a state title every year. But in the past, TC teams have outworked more talented teams, they didn't continuously lose the turnover battle, they didn't commit 8+ penalties in several games each season, and I believe several of the folks in town that want Blake out feel as if he is neglecting the history of the program. This is from a source that used to be extremely close to the program (not me lol), Blake gets out of school midday and the players show up and there is no practice plan or itinerary.  I also understand those that are on team Blake, when he has loads of talent, he wins. He does know football and he is a tremendous DC, and if the rumors are true then he will do great things. As for the board member issue, it is what it is, everyone that's true to the county know that and nothing has changed. I agree though that they should strive to make the facilities as good as we can. And as far as potential candidates, I agree there is very few options. West, Vetetoe (yes I know), and couple others that could have some interest. Whatever happens is massive for the program during a pivotal time before the next big wave of stars make their way through. 
    • McKenzie had no trouble with Huntingdon.  
    • Has BA landed any cornfed cowboys to block up front?
    • Yea I agree I will say tho I was a big “ v “ fan if an  opening ever did happen I think it would’ve been good to see him have a shot coming from a power house like Oakland. I’m sure he’s learned a lot from Kevin.  I bet he would bring a really good offense scheme IMO But after all this I just dunno anymore.  Whatever happens with the rumors an such if it did come to and opening I think this messes it all up.  The board members dreams are slowly slipping away now. I haven’t lived there for awhile I just hear what I hear, but my question is would there be any good potential candidates?? That’s why I don’t understand why people want b s out so bad who else could do any better ?? IMO there’s nothing attractive about it? As I stated earlier I went to the last game last year and taking a leak in a porta Potty is pretty sad and still nothing being done they say ..
