believeme

Has Antioch named a new coach yet?

Thumbs up to Dennis King and his program at Brentwood High School. I have heard a lot of talk about Brentwood Academy possibly being the best team in middle Tennessee and he goes in there last night and wins easily. Very easily. Preparing to play his team is a nightmare. Thumbs down to the Tennessean. Last night you had Brentwood vs. Brentwood Academy and Ensworth vs. CPA and you did not cover either. Come on MAN!

Since we havn't got your thought of the day yet, which we all thirst for, I thought I would go to the archives and find some of your best (thoughts / predictions) from the season. This is my personal favorite.

East Literature by 2 in a great game. Lewis County, 10AA'S regular season champ led by 8 going into the fourth quarter. Way to go Lady Eagles!

I think that any unbiased person that saw this game would definitely say that Ezell Harding was the more physical team. They have a great scrappy defense that gets everywhere. One thing I did notice was that they used their hands on defense very, very much. For you suits, that is called hand checking and is a foul. Most teams don't go 15-3 with a tough schedule without playing physical. Ezell is very physical and that is one of the reasons they are so successful. Does East Lit play physical? I would say yes You have to play physical to be successful. Would you say that John Wooden's Bruins were not a physical team. Would you say that Billy Donavan's inside duo of Noah and Horford were not physical? How about Daily's Pistons? Heck No, they were all physical, that is why they were good. To come on here and use words such as "mugged" is a disgrace to this board. It makes me want to compare your statement to what is going on in the golf world right now, but I am going to stay away from that. "Be more concerned with your character than your reputation, because your character is what you really are, while your reputation is merely what others think you are." -John Wooden

How did you get to this? Do they have rebounds and assists?

That is a strong statement about White House beating CPA. You might want to come off the hill and see CPA play before making those kind of remarks.

The first intentional foul was a call underneath the basket when the smallest girl on the court from EL got pushed around and retalliated..Should have been called a double foul. The second intentional foul came late in the fourth quarter when EL was trying to foul to gain back possesion of the ball. The same little girl made at least two attempts to foul cleanly and the whistle was not blown; she then got more aggressive to get the call. Let's be honest here...the girl who was called for both intentional fouls is 5'1 and 100 pounds (with her pads on)...

The goodppasture game would have been a little different if Canady had played last night. She averages 18 points a game and is the spark for FRA

Not the case shpshter93....Final Score 48-36 FRA led by 4 points at the half. East took the lead once in the THIRD QUARTER. East was welcomed into the District by shooting ZERO FOUL SHOTS VS. FRA'S 26 FOUL SHOTS. This is not a typo. FRA was well coached and hustled on every play. Good win for them.

How will East Literature fare with FRA friday?

What goes around, comes around..... My friend....East Literature led your girls by 12 at the half. In the third quarter your girls were very physical on defense; like any team should be on defense when down by 12 and the referees didn't blow the whistle because of the "lead". Then the basketball gods took over and the final is history. Furthermore, if you have access to the game film......go back and look at the game winning shot. You only get two steps before you pass or shoot......I think. Congrats to Greenbrier for fighting back and pulling off a good victory.

Jimbo, Tell us how the game went.

How many three point goals did LA hit?

CPA was defeated by another AA school that has no seniors by 36? Any footnotes?

Anyone know the final?

East Literature is traveling to Memphis to play AAA Germantown on Friday. Does anyone else in the district play tonight or tomorrow?

Know anything about McEwen?

Do they play tonight?

"but throw in a first year head coach and I just see problems"....Maybe you should do your research before you type. This coach played for The Coach Kington at Franklin Simpson (Kentucky) and probably could have played college bball, but chose to play football in West Virginia. For those who don't know, The Coach Kington is an excellent coach who's claim to fame is coaching Corey Brewer at Portland. Corey took three people to the NBAdraft; him mom, his brother Jason, and Coach Kington. Furthermore, remember that Coach Spencer came to White House and helped Coach Jim Davis turn a 1 win team to a 20 win team. Back to the subject at hand....Coach Spencer has learned from one of the best Coaches around and has experience. This guy will utilize his players on offense and will definitely hold teams to less than their average on defense. Only time will tell who will win this district, but If I was a betting man.....i got a hundred spot on the "first year coach" and his team. -Wall, Paul

Unfair to who?

East Lit tied with Whites Creek tonight in the Jamboree at Maplewood. Yes a tie...no overtime.

Did you see East Lit play? I heard they be each opponent by 20 and were substituting 5 at a time..

"lipscomb is back" I think everybody in the district is back with the addition one team. The big difference is Lipscomb is the only team who lost 5 starters. This district is wide open for the taking. Heck, on a good night, Pearl can beat Lipscomb. -Believe Me

There bench did not look very deep. If someone presses them throughout the game they could be in trouble. Speaking of deep, Lipscomb had a full bench, but I would not say they were deep as far as talent. Lipscomb nor Ezell will win this district. Believe Me.
