Metro "Ballin"

Nashville's Finest: I see the Rebels by 7 What do you know about these Rebels? It could be Raining Threes tonight in Clarksville Rebels make it to state

First of All: Marion and Hassel should have never lost A GAME,,,ARE YOU KIDDING ME!!!! Second; Everybody is looking past these Rebels,,,if they shoot halfway decently, they will win. They are about 12 deep and they can all fill it up. They beat a good McGavock team and had WCreek on the ropes,,,,Jamie took over on offense and defense and shots just didn't fall. That coach for Franklin knows what he is doing, look for a close game, and if the Rebels get hot, don't be surpised if they end up in the boro!

Didn't Clarksville only beat Franklin by 3 earlier in the year?

That is great but is his team still playing?????

Wish this game was today, last night was fun! Who does each team want to play next? And why??

I see this game in the mid 70's,,,,,both teams should be more relaxed and shoot a little better, especially Franklin. Would love to see them drop some tri-fectas and give the "creek" a run. Maybe number 34 will get hot on Thursday!

Cobra: You bring up great questions; what are the chances of the "Creek" coming out and pressing and making FHS work it up full court. The Young kid did pretty well against full court last night. I agree, Franklin WILL NEVER shoot that bad! Should be fun because pressure is off, both are advancing to Monday, I hope the crowd is as hyped up like it was in the first game last night!

1989 revisited: A state championship won by Jay Johnson at the point for Franklin,,,,and Nollner was coaching then at Whites Creek,,,,wow, I did not know that!

What about Michael Young of Franklin, 18 pts last night in the region semi win over McGavock, he runs the point and defends. 11 of his 18 came in the 4th during crunch time!

The more I see Franklin play, the more I like what Jay Johnson does with his Rebels. It's hard to fathom that the Rebels won going 0-17 from beyond the arc. They kept shooting, that's what you have to do when your team uses the three so much. Impressive play by the sophomores Young and Glover. It looks like the future is bright for Franklin. Whites Creek is so athletic and Grahm is a "Manchild". Maybe you throw a junk D at him,,,,but you can't leave that other cat who hit 27 last night. Johnson and Nollner, two good coaches going at it. The key will be how the Rebels handle the press if Whites Creek uses a press D. You have got to think Franklin will shoot better,,,it can't get worse than last night, the scary thing is they misssed 5 "uncontested" layups and 17 threes and still beat a good team. Should be fun,,the crowd in the first game last night was crazy, that's why HS bball is so great. Nice call by Jay Johnson on the "intentional free throw play" Michael Young was the difference in the 4th,,,man,,,he's just a sophomore!!!! Back to Grahm,,,,the only CHANCE to knock off Whites Creek,,,,,,,stop Jamie, then you have chance. Not sure who wins this one,,,I'll let the experts pick since I have only been on this board for 10 days.

ANTIOCH,,,the big man comes to play

You can't say enough about Jay Johnson. One year removed from losing his top three players to getting one game away from the sub state with a team that was "supposed to struggle". This district is in trouble. Jay Johnson could win this district with a middle school squad!!! Great job coach,,,se ya at Ravenwood,,,may the best team win!

CHS: OBVIOUSLY YOU ARE TERRIBLE AT PREDICTIONS,,,,,YOU ARE THE CURSE OF THE COUGARS,,,IF YOU PICK THEM TO WIN THEY LOSE,,,,,HAHAHHAHAHAHAHAAHHAHAHA YOU ARE THEIR VERSION OF LEE CORSO STAY OFF THE BOARDS,,,,,COUGARS DONE,,,DEAL WITH IT

Doesn't franklin lose alot next year...they should down then uh??????

CHS PLEASE STOP!!!!!!! People like you make boards like this stupid. Every comment you make means nothing. You sound like a second grader getting picked on in gym class. If you went to a metro school you would last about 3 days. Then you'd transfer to BGA. Franklin owns you and that district. Centennial has no tradition at anything, what are you guys good at??? Please, don't consider yourself in the same class as Franklin or anybody in metro for that matter. I bet you got cut from the freshman team, and now you live your dreams on coach t.

Antioch or the cougars: I'll go with antioch by 20 or more, Franklin dominated you and antioch beat franklin

Man, I THOUGHT Franklin posters were on the ball? Guess not,,,,I know Centennial dislikes Franklin after reading their posts!

How good is Hunters lane and do we think that Franklin can beat McGavock? They looked good last night, they seemed well coached, and they shared the ball. I think one of their top scorers, Glover, didn't even score much and they still dominated! That's a good sign. One coach watching the game turned to me and said "they have 4 sopomores on the court at the same time". Good luck for that district next couple of years. What is the consensus on the up coming Region games????
