  1. Smith + 4 Cannon + 1 C M + 20 Macon + 10
  2. LA +30 Upperman +1 CM +10 Smith +10
  3. Yes. Coach Riddle had the flu and didn't make it.
  4. Smith County gets beat by 4 vs Dickson co. in the Gatlinburg Classic.
  5. I believe tradition does have a lot to do with it. Jim Brown comes to mind. When he got to Jackson they were so bad. With that being said it is easier for a Livingston than say a DeKalb ,Smith, or Cannon just by numbers alone. If you do the math Livingston probably has 400 more students than the schools mentioned. That is probably 200 more girls to choose from. Overton coaches do a very good job with their feeder programs and aau---bball showcase . Not crying about Livingston at all. That's just the way it is.
  6. I I can understand your thinking. I believe if they put it all together they could be contenders. They looked like they had no purpose when I saw them. Driver wasn't playing that game.
  7. I believe its a 5 team race. That is if teams stay injury free.
  8. Im not kidding, don't count Macon out just yet. They havnt played their best ball. This is going to be a fun season!
  9. Upperman by 15 La by 10 + if Smith doesn't play Smith by 6+
  10. Congrats to the girls and coach Smith. This is going to be an interesting year. Might have to re-evaluate my picks this year!
  11. Hey folks . Lets remember Coach Dodgen and his family in our prayers. I was told his mom had a stroke and isn't doing very well.
  12. C M by 5 L A by 20 U BY double digits Cannnon 10 or more Its a marathon not a 50 yard dash
  13. Wish I could be there. Interested in what Smiths coach will do opposite from the last coach.
  14. Where is everyone playing this weekend. esp 8aa. I saw Livingston , Upperman , Smith, and Central play last Saturday. Very enjoyable to watch for $4.00. Getting excited for basketball.
  15. Ibelieve they play thursday
  16. Macon could be good they have got the Anderson girl and Bullington girl at post. Clark is very fast and you have to deal with Driver, , Shrum ,and Owens. Could be very good. Have not heard about the other player. would you like to enlighten us?
  17. Didn't catch that. My bad. I think playing some weaker teams is not that bad of a thing. It helps players with their confidence , gets the younger players some court time , and gets the coaches more acclimated to his players. There is just so many of those games a team needs to play. You will learn little about your team if the beat up on x-school three times a year when you can learn more about your team if you play, lets say, Lebanon.
  18. Scheduling? Please explain. Thanks
  19. Livingston - I think they are head and shoulders over the rest of the field. experience + depth +good coach = State Smith - If refs keep calling hand checking , which they done for about 10 games last year, Hackett could get 20 from the line. Seniors that have had some big wins should help. Coach is a mystery. Central - Should Smith get back full strength and obi they will be good. Macon - Sleeper of 8 aa. Very good point guard , two post that have good hands, and a decent supporting class. Very little team speed. Upperman - wait till next year they will be in top 2 or 3 Cannon - Sort of up in the air on this. They cant be as good on Offense or Defense ...Or could they get close. DeKalb - Got a very hard nosed team that play as hard as any. Just don't think they get there. York- Have a lot of respect for the coaches and team. If they had their kids that should have went there they would be close to the top. Hope they are the "sleeper " team this year.
  20. Privates have an unfair advantage just like schools that have open enrollment. Think what you want but you take players that live 50 miles away and go to school x just to win a championship , or get a better education, (wink-wink). I am not blaming parents for doing what they think is best but give me a break when a private school wants to be in with the public. Its bad enough when you have to play against teams with open enrollment and some of the best recruiters this side of Knoxville. Some of all these "great" coaches wouldn't be near as good if they had to play with just their in county players. I am now off my soap box. Just my opinion.
  21. I have watched 8 aa teams play quiet a bit this summer and Livingston is the team to beat . They have a post that does a good job around the rim and very good guards. Coach Riddle does a great job with her bench especially in the summer. Cannon has no choice but to be a little down. DeKalb is very quick but very small. They have the shooters to have a few upsets Smith has three seniors and 2 soph and very little, if any bench. They can score in bunches York. I have a great deal of respect for those kids and coaches. They would be the team to beat in the district if they were playing with the kids that went to their jr. high and then left. Macon could be good . They have some good athletes and they get a very good shooter back coming off an injury. Will be very good in 2 years Central?
  22. Macon county has an Eighth grader that will be good. About 6 ft . They also have a couple of 7th graders that can play. livingston has about two or three that are going to be good. (as always). Smith has a couple of 7th graders that can play. See those girls in aau. Im sure there are a lot more than that but just havnt seen them.
  23. I know that it should have done been posted. Camp is a month away.
