  1. All you posters need to quit hiding behind a name saying Roy is Coach Stone. IT IS NOT HIM! Seriously, folks. Even Roy keeps telling y’all he isn’t him. So please just stop. If you know Coach Stone himself, then why don’t y’all just go see him face to face and call him Roy. Quit hiding behind names. Again, IM TELLING YOU, ITS NOT HIM!

  2. Yeah that is her. I was really impressed watching her finish and just her overall game. Gleason and Greenfield will be wars and will probably be toss up games, IMO. Both will be good. Do think Greenfield getting Alford will really help them and give Edie some much needed in the paint help. Gleason is well coached like Greenfield and will be tough as well. Anderson was the most improved player in West Tennessee I seen last year. Really solid player.

  3. We classify picture day as media day. The local newspapers will take pictures of the team and one newspaper outlet will at times interview a certain player and head coach. So it’s not exactly a media day as you would think.

  4. Yes, happy to return to a conversation about this year. And, I do think Greenfield and McKenzie will be really tough. I love seeing the Class A trophy come back to West TN, especially northwest TN and hope to see it brought back again this year! Amazing that you called that game! The loss to Lake County at SF with such a loaded team was absolutely heartbreaking for Gleason fans, especially given a non-foul call at half court when Ashley Mc was clobbered. But, that's how the cookie crumbles. That team was loaded and had beaten Bradford by 20+ each time we played - something that never happened in that rivalry. But Bradford was the '96 state champs, not Gleason. That's why we play the games.

  5. Hope this thread is headed back to it's intended purpose now, discussing who will be among the Best in Class A for the 21-22 season. That's the information I want to know. Debating the best ever has been done before, belongs in its own thread, and stirs a lot of passion. I wouldn't say any fan group has tunnel vision about their team but most all are inherently biased toward their school. Greatest or best ever is such a subjective term. Different people quantify their opinions based on different criteria. To some it's the number of future collegiate players and the school's they go to. Others look at number of wins and strength of schedule. To some it's whether they captured the gold ball. An argument can be made for all of the teams that have been mentioned. I would also agree it's impossible to compare teams from different eras. Tess and Edie Darby have had so many more opportunities than their mother's teams did at Bradford. It doesn't make modern necessarily "better" but more "seasoned." I've had the blessing of broadcasting games of all of the teams from West Tennessee mentioned in this thread. The Heather Butler led teams at Gibson Co. were loaded and benefited from two of the best coaches ever, Kevin McMillan & David Russell. They had some epic battles with really good Westview teams, however that was AA and this debate was about Class A. The Bradford-Gleason rivalry of the 1990's was really special. I would tend to agree with GBO that the 96' Gleason team may have been arguably Randy Frazier's best. I got to call Lake County's upset win at the "Devils Den" in South Fulton and it was a shocker. So some of the greatest didn't even make it to Murfreesboro. The recent Greenfield teams were very successful and might have been even more if some things had been different. I look forward to being back on the sidelines this season after sitting out last year. I'm excited about how the new classifications will create some new rivalries and matchups and allow us to see some new teams. Members, keep sharing about your teams for the upcoming season.

  8. Go to south Gibson the week before the season starts and watch their jamboree. South Gibson and Peabody do it every year.
