DCHS pitcher Steven Jennings is ranked in the top 50 of MLB draft prospects. He's committed to Ole Miss, but is now expected to go as high as the second round if he decides to do so.

That is impressive. Good luck to him.

That's right, you can only play who's on the schedule! He brings it every game. Why in the world would you not have everything go through him the last 3 minutes of the game? It's not like Harriman stopped him, they didn't/couldn't even slow him down. He will be just fine with the Sycamores. I bet some college coaches are kicking themselves for not getting in on him earlier. Bird played there and he turned out okay?

I would be interested to see how many have been in contact since the tournament. Has he signed or just committed?

He has signed.

really?

BCS was bowl championship series. It ended in 2013. It applied only to football. A much better term to use would be power 5 conference schools. There would be great debate today whether those 5 are the best 5 basketball conferences...especially men's basketball.

Western Kentucky could be a lot of high major programs... also, Akira turned down multiple BCS offers to go to Western... don't ask me why, it's just a fact to the situation.

Akira is a top 60 player in the country in multiple services...

What exactly is a BCS offer?

It was a great game with two talented teams. Levy took the game over late. I was also impressed with P-C's shooting. Great game to watch. Two very well coached teams.

How many points Hayes-Overton have?

14

No chance is such a strong choice of words. Everybody has a chance at this point! Good win MC

Yep...a great win by Macon.

Anyone have a scouting report on McMinn Central??

They split with the U and beat them in the round house. Macon has no chance to beat them there.

It's been a while. I see the SCHS girls are having a successful year. Do you think it will continue?

They are 2-1 against Macon. All 3 games were down to the wire. It should be a good one.

How you doing Antwan? Long time no see, or hear from on the T.

Good to hear from you...my friend.

The scoreboard has Macon vs Smith at 6:00 PM and LA vs Upperman at 7:30.

I think LA & the U is at 6:00. MC & SC afterward.

Looks like Signal Moutain is the only team that has a chance to win a game in the region.

Can't overlook anyone in the tournament.

No injuries, no excuses.  We need to get back into playing AAU at an early age like the rest of our District 7A schools are doing and start working harder.  The days are over when we just show up and win because of that JC on our jerseys.  I'm very interested in seeing what the future holds for this program.  We have two very good juniors in Hardy and Pippin, however we need to develop some talent to go with them.  The 8th grade has a lot of potential, but they need to get into the gym and stay there.  How this team beats Clarkrange and loses to Red Boiling is beyond me.  I wasn't there so didn't see how it unfolded but Jackson County should never lose to Red Boiling.  Hats off to the coaches and players in RBS though, they clearly were the better team last night by the looks of the score.

 

RBS is 13-2 in their last 15 games. They are not bad.

Man...comparative scores don't mean anything in 7a. I never have put much stock in them anyway.

Can you quantify this claim that "small ball coaches" have problems at the 5A and 6A classification? What is your opinion based on? Which schools, coaches, etc.?

I think his point is that many small school coaches have been passed over for jobs at bigger schools.

...that would be the goal..and guess what all road to Cookeville lead through Oakland. We've travelled that road before...with my group

Lebanon has won 21 games in 10 years for an average of 2.1 wins per year. I don't care who the new coach is. It is not realistic to think it won't take time to turn it around.

lol

You are right. They will be nipping at Maryville & Oakland's heels next year. The old ball coach is coming out of retirement.

Nope we don't need Saban

Then whom?

it all depends, word in the community if a certain coach is named there are several kids that wouldn't normally think of playing that will be out to give it a shot ..Time will tell

Must be Saban then.

Wasting away and going to be further in the hole after losing first game to TC. Dumb and Dumb decision to play them.

Lebanon can't go any further in the hole. It is probably better to play a 2a local team than travel several hours to play a 6a team. The next few years will be tough for them no matter who the new coach is. It will not be a one or two year rebuilding process.

Yes sir they did, scored the first 2 points of the game but not much after that.  Not a good night to say the least, this is the weakest JC team I've seen since the 90's.

 

Thanks...hard to believe.

Did Jackson County score just 2 points in the first half against Cookeville last night?

It was actually 3 on 3 x 2...lol

I've been reading all of the posts about the 6A title game and nobody has mentioned the real MVP's for Whitehaven.  The officiating crew out of Nashville. The folks around me at the game could not believe the no calls.  There are some video clips on Twitter that shows just how bad it really was.  I never agree with Maryville folks on anything but whoever said that if it weren't for the officials, Whitehaven would never have a state championship is a smart person.

Referee Rick Pearson had a view of all of the holding calls from about 7 yds away but never threw it.  I was told by one of the coaches that apparently that was his last game as an official so I guess he just wanted the crap over with.  He only called the obvious while letting the WH left tackle hold and cheap shot over and over again.  Good riddance!!

Darryl Keckler was the umpire that allowed all kinds of cheapshots around him and kept his fat hands in his pocket

Chris Humphreys was the worse.  Look at Twitter.  On 3 and 3 at the WH 22 yard line, Oakland shifted and WH jumped.  Should have been 1 and 10 at the WH 17.  Humphreys called illegal shift on Oakland..........told Creasy one of his guys had moved forward first..........Mr. Humphreys......YOU ARE A LIAR!  Watch the film. It made it 3rd and 9 and Oakland threw a pick on the next play.  the kids steps out 30 yards down the field from where Humphreys spotted it.  Humphreys also allowed #1 from WH to taunt the Oakland coaches.

These three had an agenda and should never officiate again.  I'm sure there all back at their full time jobs bragging about how they took care of that Oakland team....good job men, be proud of yourselves.

Now that I've vented, all of you guys that are gonna ###### about it, watch the film again and tell me I'm wrong.

 

Moot point

I don't understand why you think you'll can count TC as a win look at you'll history in last 10 years and look at Trousdale in last 10 years we putting state championships in history book beating bigger school while you'll are hoping to win 5 games

TC has not played a 6a team since TN went to 6 classes. They have been drilled in the playoffs the last 3 years by 2a & 1a teams. If Lebanon makes the right hire...they will have a good chance to win next year...and will win the year after next. TC will have a new coach also. That is tough for them also.
