  1. I been around here a long time and I can’t ever remember Cookeville playing in a sectional/sub state game. So I sure have not seen them at a state tournament. Last thing some of you younger ones might not know is that the state tournament has not always been held in Murfreesboro. When I was in high school it was at Vanderbilt. I was told before my time it alternated sites from West, Middle. and East Tennessee.
  2. I was told by someone who should know that they were supposed to play in Florida and the tournament got cancelled. So they were scrambling to find any tournament to play in.
  3. Monterey has a kid that will shoot a huge percentage of their teams shots. He probably should shoot the most because he is their best scorer. I would say 80% of shots would be not good for any teams chemistry. I think not having other options hurts the team. It is easier to guard one person than five.
  4. I will be shocked if both don’t make it and not sure both shouldn’t win. Both face double and triple teams every game and still average over 30 each. Strong has improved so much. I am not sure where he is going to college but he is at least a mid-major and of course Slatten going to Ole Miss. In my opinion, the best players don’t just score, they make their teammates better. Pretty sure both boys also lead their team in assists. Definitely 2 of the best that have played in Upper Cumberland in a long time.
  5. Wrong. JC made substate in 2016 under different coach who never had losing record in district. That was last season he coached.
  6. Not sure why anyone would want to take this job. If they will fire Leslie they will fire anyone else too. My last guess is they have some other LOCAL person to replace her.....
  7. I am pulling or 6a but I will pick Loretta because they have the best player.
  8. Biggest upset in district tournament in some time. I was not at game but would like to hear details.
  9. After watching several games last few weeks I definitely think West should be MVP of district. Brings it every night and if you take him off that team they probably finish in bottom 3 of district. He definitely makes all his teammates better. Marsh should be 2nd and I would go with Strong and Ashlock has 3rd and 4th. Still think if Strong can shoot 3 little better he may have most college potential.
  10. Best player in uppercumberland plays for Sparta, Slatten kid.
  11. 1. Clay County--most talent overall, way deeper than anyone else in district. 2/3. Monterey/RBS--Teams are very different but both rely on one player to get most of their offense. 4/5. Gordonsville/Pickett Co--I could see either team filling in last spot to make the region. 6/7. Jackson Co./Trousdale--Both have guys that can play. Consistent play just not there for either yet. 8. Clarkrange--least talented team but wouldn't surprise me if they beat someone in district tournament. I don't believe the district to be a toss up. I think Clay has the best team. It would not shock me if they get beat again in district but only if they don't play to potential. MVP race will be interesting. Probably a 2 horse race with Marsh(RBS) and West(MHS). Strong kid from Clay will likely be next choice but other 2 are more valuable to their team IMO. I do think Strong kid will be great player before he is done but would not make him MVP this year. Anyway, my 2 cents worth.
  12. Mafia, has your opinion changed after last night?
  13. Wood dale deserves to lose if they keep shooting 3’s. 0 for 13 heading to 4th qtr
  14. Don’t sleep on Meigs County. I only saw them play once but I believe they started 5 sophomore and they could play...
