chill Posted January 10, 2017 Report Share Posted January 10, 2017 Sad that no one from Knoxville voted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TonyG Posted January 10, 2017 Report Share Posted January 10, 2017 If I am not mistaken that the (#) besides the team means first place votes, how the heck does Oak Ridge get 4 votes. I understand homers exist but geez all 15 of those votes should've belonged to East. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RealisticFan45 Posted January 10, 2017 Report Share Posted January 10, 2017 Im almost certain Crockett Co in AA is undefeated? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mboro Posted January 10, 2017 Report Share Posted January 10, 2017 I'm a Humboldt alum, but not sure how W.E.B. Dubois is not ranked! The number of points they're putting up in 32 minutes is crazy! Hadn't seen them play, but apparently they can score! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
osunut2 Posted January 10, 2017 Report Share Posted January 10, 2017 Im almost certain Crockett Co in AA is undefeated? Yup, must've switched the 5 and 0. Should be 15-0, not 10-5. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oak Ridge has performed very well even with injuries and absences. Several players are much improved from last season and the team is tight with one another. Of course, East is the beast but even they could experience injuries, cold shooting, lack of intensity on a certain night. It won't be long and the tournaments will start and all the guessing will be done away with. Best of luck to East and I hope they don't suffer any injuries. A team wide mild cause of running noses will be just fine however. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SweetScience Posted January 10, 2017 Report Share Posted January 10, 2017 A few injuries and a cold shooting night is the only way OR beats East. Crazier things have happened. Anything is possible in HS sports, especially basketball. With EJ Bush out for the rest of the year our chances at even getting lucky went way down, but I would give us 1 in a million shot of upsetting a team like East. But, as Jim Carey said in Dumb and Dumber....1 in a million? "So, you're saying there's a chance??!!" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For some reason the "drop down menu" for voting in Class A did not include DuBois until after I voted and notified AP. Likely others were unable to vote them as well. I'm sure they'll break the Top 10 next week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Galilee Posted January 10, 2017 Report Share Posted January 10, 2017 What rankings. We have won the last 3 titles and never been ranked number 1. To be honest that is how we like it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
