  1. What a disappointing game. Neither team really lived up to the hype. I think that WH looked much better last year. I expected much more from this team. Have they been playing like this all season? I am sure the WH fans were disappointed as well with the level of play displayed tonight. Hopefully they can pull it together and make another run.

     

    We are beginning to get used to poor play at SC. The kids are clearly discouraged, afraid to make a mistake and not playing up to their potential. Possibly tired of all the negativity and the coaches not playing the best players. It is hard to win against solid teams without your best on the floor. I know the team was hoping for a run to the state but that seems to be an impossible task based on how they have been playing. The team is clearly better than the 1A competition they played to prepare for the 2nd half of the season. But I think we have to beat AA teams to make it to the state.

     

    I hope they can figure it out soon so a D1 players skills are not wasted just for a region or sub-state appearance.

  2. ITS A TOSS-UP. STATION CAMP HAS THE BETTER ATHLETES AND HOME COURT, AND WHITE HOUSE HAS THE BETTER BASKETBALL PLAYERS, BUT HAVENT SHOWED MUCH THIS YEAR. I THINK CODY BROWN IS ONE OF THE KEYS FOR STATION CAMP. THEIR ISNT ANY EXCITEMENT IN THE AIR FOR WHITE HOUSE LIKE THE LAST FEW YEARS. HOPEFULLY TONIGHT WILL GET WHITE HOUSE STARTED FOR THIS YEAR.

     

    Larry Legend are you going to the game tonight? I am expecting to see a big game from Barnes. I wasn't able to get to the Beech game. He should be able to post up the smaller guards from SC. I expect the tempo of the game to be a major factor in who wins the game. SC tends to turn the ball over quite a bit and they have some poor free throw shooters. It should be a very competitive game.

  3. Not a good showing for the Bison. Down 17 -2 before I could my seat warmed up. Jenkins didn't look all that great against the Green Wave D. After starting 0 for 4 they were down by 10. I would be surprised if he shot 30% from the floor tonight. A couple of air balls with a hand in his face. Much tougher competition in AAA. Luna's team was much more prepared and disciplined on both ends of the floor. Newbell and Sweat were able to defend him without help. Points were spread among many of the Gallatin players and they work the ball to get easy shots. Not fade aways and off balance 3's. Another lack luster performance from the Bison who have now lost 3 of their last 4. Who have you beaten?

     

    Massey needs to figure out how to get this team playing to there full potential and stress the importance of shot selection and each players role on the team. What is going on with Terrell and Brown? They played well last year and have been non-existent so far this year. Terrell runs the offense well but must become more of an offensive threat. Brown needs to regain his confidence and become a scoring threat for this team to advance to the state. This team has 4 scoring options Jenkins, West, Terrell and Brown. Two defensive stoppers in #22 and #24. Learn to play more as a team and utilize the strengths better and this team can go far.

     

    Any coach could win 20+ with the talent mentioned above and the strength of schedule. Based on the performance of this team over the last 3 games a trip to the "Boro" seems to be unrealistic especially with lineups and substitutions that make absolutely no sense. Review the game film and learn that you must have at least 3 of the 4 mentioned above on the floor at all times to score points. The winning team is the one that scores the most. Hope the Bison can figure it out or the season will end sooner than expected.

     

    Jenkins played a solid game. Although he didn't shoot as good as he normally does he was able to help the team make a few good runs. I agree that they must have scoring from other players to advance to the State. Must figure out how to stop easy baskets inside. They are not very big I am not sure what defense to play to stop all of the easy baskets the taller teams get against them. Jenkins is there 2nd biggest player but to put him inside may put get him in foul trouble.

  4. OR could you really be Jeffery Terrell or his dad and yoy did not like the fact that you were taken out of the game because you were ineffective outside of one shot that you shot over your head and you were not even looking at the basket. It does not take a real man to get on here and down grade the program. So ARE YOU WHO WE THINK YOU ARE??? I would bet that if you are one of these two individuals then the rest of the Bison team would love to know about it. Talk about a team. If you are it would really show what is truly wrong at SCHS. It has been my experience that players win and lose games. I have never seen a coach trap, rebound, shoot, or guard on the court. They have to rely on players who have guts. Which is something you two are lacking in. By the way, If Jenkins was on my team, I would want him to shoot 600 times if he could and I would bust my rear to rebound for him IF he ever missed. As far as the GAllatin game, the kid had 26. I guess he needs benching because he did not get his 30. KEEP FIRING JOHN, the real Bison fans are behind you.

     

    WOW this post was to discuss the chances of a SC upset. I would only say that to beat Gallatin a team effort is necessary. Gallatin had 4 players in double digits and with one at 20 and another at 18. For SC to build from last season more players will need to step up and score.

  5. So when will you come to see White House play so i can make sure to let Barnes know you will be in attendance so he can please you. Since you have to put down a kid and everything. How about you just come to the Station Camp White House game since you bring up John Jenkins in every post you make and you can see him and Barnes go at it. Your real cool some adult you are getting on here putting down Barnes and Wood and Gaines in every post you make. Bet you wouldnt say nothing to Gaines in the street would ya??? Didnt think so. So just keep running your mouth and make lots of post after you see Barnes and Jenkins go at it will ya? Cause I wanna know what happens.

     

    I am planning to be at the WH/Beech game. I have heard Beech is down this year but they have some starters back. Barnes should be able to get plenty of open looks against the 1-3-1 defense.

     

    Will you buy me some popcorn and a coke?

  6. What would you expect their record to be? Very tough district they played in. 2 teams went to state that year from the district. Im sure Freshman Barnes Wood and Troubaugh played that year in the rotation. Should they have been 20-8 in that district with all those freshman?

     

    I'm not 100% sure what you are getting at. My comment reffered to the fact that WH was not that deep and that is why they were playing as freshman. Not necessarily because they were ready to play Varsity because of the talent level at WH. I am not putting down these players for their record or accomplishments as freshman. I believe my comments were a reply to someone making a case that these kids are top 10 in AA and was using theip play time as freshman on the varsity team as a reason why.

     

    I believe Jenkins on the other hand average 15 -16 a game as a freshman and was clearly ready to play varsity as a freshman.

  7. Skywalker, Do you seriously think that STATION CAMP can beat WHITE HOUSE? STATION CAMPS players and coaches know that it wont happen this year. Jenkins will score more but WHITE HOUSE will win.

     

    I really do not know who will win the game and for this post I really do not care who wins the game. This thread is about the top 10 in AA. I watched both of these teams last year and the only player worthy or recognition as a top 10 player in AA is Jenkins. He is a legit D1 prospect. He is being recruited by schools that regular participants in March Madness and some typically are in the sweet 16, Elite 8 and contend for National Titles. These types of programs do not recruit average players they look for the best of the best. That is why he should be considered on the list and the others I have mentioned should not.

     

    I have a hard time believing that the SC team and coaches do not think they can win. They won the last time without Jenkins and the district game was a toss up. I would expect the fans to see a very competitive game between these schools. Both teams has a solid group of players back from teams that were successful last year.

  8. THROUGH 3 GAMES

    BARNES 9-19 ON THREE'S 48%

    14-28 FROM THE FIELD 50%

    7-7 FREE THROWS 100%

     

    GAINES 14-22 FROM FIELD 67%

    10-14 FREE THROWS 72%

    THROUGH 2 GAMES

    WOOD 19-23 FROM FIELD 83%

     

    PICK YOUR POISON

     

    I am sure that many of the quality teams in the mid state are not afraid of your so called best 3 of all time. Thanks for the stats. Maybe you should change your post name to STAT BOY!!!!! I know the real Larry has a B-Ball IQ.

  9. So when will you come to see White House play so i can make sure to let Barnes know you will be in attendance so he can please you. Since you have to put down a kid and everything. How about you just come to the Station Camp White House game since you bring up John Jenkins in every post you make and you can see him and Barnes go at it.

So just keep running your mouth and make lots of post after you see Barnes and Jenkins go at it will ya? Cause I wanna know what happens.

     

    I'm sure that you will be in attendance to know what happens. I don't consider my comments a put down to the kids. I only talk about what I have seen and the skills that have been displayed by the players. If you and your WH buddies would post realistic comments about talent and ability I wouldn't have a need to comment on what you already should know and typically see at the games. If you have any basketball intelligence at all you should know that 3 WH players are not in the top 10 in the state. So why post that they are?

     

    You really don't want Barnes and Jenkins to go head to head. Jenkins may get more in a quarter that Barnes gets in the entire game, possibly a couple of games.

  10. YOUR WELCOME. ANYTHING TO HELP. BARNES AVERAGES SINCE STARTING AS A FRESHMAN

     

    FRESH 5.0 9-19 RECORD IN AAA.

    SOPH 9.5 18-15 RECORD (SECTIONALS)

    JUN 10.5 26-7 RECORD (STATE)

    SEN ............

     

    IN THREE YEARS HAS AVERAGED 3-4 ASSISTS PER GAME, AND 2 STEALS. IT AMAZES ME THAT ALL PEOPLE DO IS LOOK AT PTS PER GAME. HOW MANY POINTS PER GAME DID LIBERTYS FAB FIVE AVERAGE LAST YEAR? THEY WE'RE VERY BALANCED AND SAIN AND LONG PROBABLY AVERAGED 15-17, AND THE OTHER THREE PROBABLY AVERAGED 7-12. BALANCE , BALANCE, BALANCE. AND WHAT WAS MALONE AND NEWBILLS PTS PER GAME AVARAGES LAST YEAR??? PROBABLY ABOUT 10 PER GAME. GALLATIN, LIKE WHITE HOUSE ARE VERY BALANCED.

     

    WOOD HAS ALSO BEEN A VARSITY PLAYER SINCE HE WAS A FRESHMAN. WOOD AVERAGED CLOSE TO 9PTS AND 7 REBOUND PER GAME LAST YEAR.

     

    Starting as a freshman really speaks to the depth of the white house team not necessarily how good these players were. Look at the record. 9-19. I watched them play as freshman. Much different than say a John Jenkins when he was a Freshman averaging 19 a game on a pretty solid SC team.

     

    I look at the total package as well. I have yet to see Barnes ability to go right and get a shot off the dribble other than a layup. I agree that he is a good spot up shooter actually very good spot up shooter. To be one of the best in the state shouldn't he be able to do it all, take over a game when necessary. I just haven't seen that type of talent out of these kids.

  11. WHITE HOUSE -- BARNES GAINES AND WOOD

     

    Larry I am beginning to wonder if you actually have a BBall IQ. WH has 3 of the top 10 AA players in the state!!! I love your post because I can always get a good laugh.

     

    Just for everyones entertainment will you provide the scoring average for Barnes and Wood from last year. Remember when you type it in that your stating they are in the top 10 in AA for the entire state.

     

    These players will be all district performers but best in state is a huge stretch.

     

    Thanks for keeping me entertained

  12. ha. they have two. what do you know. long way to go this year buddy

    I will be looking for them to sign. May be a long wait.

    gaines...yes. the other two are good but not at the top of the list. seen them and played them

    Unless Barnes can go right now he is still easy to guard. Gaines struggles to guard anyone that is athletic.

  13. YOU CANT ARGUE WITH IGNORANT PEOPLE SUMNER. NO POINT IN TRYING. LAST YEAR I SAID WH HAD ONE OF THE BEST STARTING LINEUPS IN THE STATE & PEOPLE DIDN'T BELIEVE . THIS YEAR ITS EVEN BETTER. BUT IGNORANT PEOPLE WILL ARGUE. GO FIGURE.

     

    Larry why all the hostility????? I have seen WH play at least a dozen games over the last couple of years. In my opinion they do not have one of the best starting 5's in the mid-state. You don't have to take my opinion personally. I think Barnes is a good player. I don't think he is a D1 prospect. I think Gaines is good in the post but a liability on the defensive end especially if he is playing a quick versatile big man. Personally, I don't think they have a D1 prospect on the team. That is my opinion based on the games that I have seen. That doesn't mean that I am right, just my opinion.

  14. WHITE HOUSE and i will explain.

     

    Jeremy Barnes 4 year varsity starter. CO-MVP of the district last year with John Jenkins. Unlimited range.

    Rogers Gaines- ALL STATE as a junior. Unstopable when he gets the ball down low. Great hands and great passer.

    Garrett Wood - Played varsity since he was a freshman. Great rebounder. Has come a long way the last few years.

    Could post many double -doubles this year.

    Zack Trobaugh-Played varsity as a Freshman. Sit out Soph year, and was 6th man last year.

    5th starter could be Matt Parker, Chad Neal, Michael Travis. All are very good ballplayers. Parker is a great athlete, and so is Neal. Travis has been getting varsity minutes since his soph year and always hustles.

     

    I would also say that the trio of Gaines, Barnes, and Wood is as good as you'll find anywhere in TN. Im not saying their the best , but im very confident in saying that their AS GOOD as any TRIO you'll see this year.

     

    Good to see that you are still living in the white house dream world. Average players shouldn't be considered the best we will see all year. Please tell me that you are not comparing Barnes to Jenkins. Co-MVP was a gift for someone that barely averaged double digits. How would the White House starting five compare to Gallatin?

     

    If you are reading this post and looking for a talented athletic team to watch travel to Gallatin to see the Green Wave.

  15. If you wanna start a Howard vs WHite House thread go ahead but Im telling you these guys cant run the floor with the mighty HustlinTIgers! And I will say it again, ask STATION CAMP!!!

     

    The White House alum only want to build up their team. They know deep down they do not have any major college prospects. The do play well as a team.

    The Barnes kid from White House in the best player i've watched all year

    You've got to get out more. Gaines is the man in White House. Barnes is a good complimentary player. The Flash would never see the floor at Liberty, BTWashington, etc. It's great that his family is so supportive but at some point you've got to recognize.

    I don't know what your motivation is for caring enough to talk like you do, but the flash can play with any guard i've seen this year, and if you want to see it come to the boro Wednesday. Sorry your team's not there. /laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":lol:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" />

     

    How many did the Flash have in the district and region championship?????? The best players in the state are able to take those games over and dominate the competition. WH does not have a player that can consistently take over a game or a player that other teams must stop for a chance to win. The WH faithful seem to only recall the few really good games the kids have played. I have seen WH play at least 8 times this year and they have no one worthy of best in AA. They are having a great year and I wish the team luck and success in the state.

  18. QUOTE(timbdp @ Mar 4 2007 - 11:50 AM) 826399303[/snapback]are sure terrell will have that many turnovers i thought he would have more

    i say about 30 turnovers for terrell thanks if massey don't put him on the bench by halftime

     

    SC seems to be happy with Terrell at the point as he rarely comes out of the game. WH did not have an answer for him during the season or district championship and defensively set up a game plan to stop him from driving during the region finals. They had to double down in the paint to stop his ability to drive. If you don't believe this post watch the game film.

     

    If SC gets beat by Howard I am quite sure they would have beaten WH also. Worry about your own game from what I have seen and heard you have plenty to worry about.

  19. QUOTE(BenStiller23 @ Mar 2 2007 - 01:49 PM) 826397101[/snapback]I know they don't cause S.C. will get drilled by Howard. So they won't have a chance to. But I do think we will beat East Ridge as most people do on here. 3 to 1, thats all that needs to be said.

     

    Are the 3 SumnerCounty, LarryBird33 and BenStiller23? I am now convinced WH by 17. /laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":lol:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" /> /laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":lol:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" /> /laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":lol:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" /> /laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":lol:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" />
