Oldtimeballer, a lot of people are wondering who you are and I was just wondering if you could give us a hint like a first name or something or if you want just tell us who you are.

just asking some thoughts on Temple and if anyone is giving them a chance or what--what do ya'll think of Temple and why

Brainerd by 5 over the Owls.

I thought CH was suppose to be really good this year. Is Temple that good, or did CH play bad or what. Just asking about any thoughts on that game.

[size=I heard about Temple winning in double overtime against College Heights. Did CH play bad or did Temple play well or what? If someone could give me some info on that game that would be great.

Not that this means much much but seth dominated boyds middle school team last year- the whole team did. So in a few years if they gain in numbers and get stronger wit a weight program temple could hang with some tough teams. And for basketball, nobody will be any competition when seths class becomes seniors.

well well well...looks like dozier won this battle---i wasn't there, how'd the matchup go. it said in the paper that young skogen didn't score until the 4th quarter. is this right? and another thing...seth skogen will be the best football player in the chattanooga area??? you have got to be kidding me! first of all, temple's "football program" didn't play ANYONE this year. in fact, speaking of blind schools, didn't they play the tennessee school for the blind? but regardless, there is no way that you can tell how good a football player is until he plays some competition. maybe temple should start playing games that count, and not just in a fun league.

No dozier didn't win the battle- his team did - seth had more points. Seth has a better feel for the offense than dozier, who was out of control some of the time. Dozier is good but seth is just better. And by the way, Temple didn't play the school for the blind. And how good a football player is doesn't rely on what team he is on. Time will tell how good seth is in baketball and football.

I agree. #44, Dee Newson, is good. He's only a freshman. He plays hard D, can handle the ball well, and can get hot outside.

Caleb Skogen from Temple has some serious handles!!

Why are u guys all over cleveland? They beat a good school and if they are playing well right now they deserve to be ranked high, no matter if they don't have as much talent as the other teams. If and when someone beats them they will drop, but they haven't been beat yet so they deserve it.

Even though he is an assistant, Kevin Skogen is so smart and knows tons about the game of basketball. If he wasn't a preacher, he'd be a star head basketball coach!!

Temple came back from eleven points behind to beat the Pioneers of East Ridge 59-51.

Seth Skogan from temple IS the best freshman in Chatt.

He was on temple's varsity last year as an 8th grader. He's a great shooter. You wouldn't know hes a freshman from watching him play. Hopefully he becomes just as good or better than his brother, Jake.

How about the Temple freshman. They account for 12 of the 22 starting positions. In Temples first year they have a chance to go .500 on the year. The freshman QB has a chance to set the chattanooga record for passing yards, passing to caleb skogen, a junior, who set the chattanooga record for recieving yards. These guys have a chance to do something good in the future.

Who do you guys think the best reciever in the chattanooga area is?

First of all they have had the best sportsmanship of any team i've played against.

Second, they are very tough- not big, just tough- they are sooooo fast - so u better not over pursue, or it will be a long night.

I think they could compete with better schools - the only thing that would hurt them is their size in their lineman- otherwise they are very talented.

LOOKOUT VALLEYS GONNA GET KILLED!!! Whitwell is too big and strong for LV.

That's like saying that they would have won the game if he would have hit a couple home runs in the ninth. That makes no sense at all. The fact is temple did hit shots in the first half. The refs made some bad calls both ways, they definately weren't for temple

Justin Walls too

They did play one of there worst defensive games but ccs is a good team and they make big runs. They also shoot the ball well. But if that is the only game you've seen then you have no room to talk.

NCS03,

You have no idea what you are talking about. Temple plays solid defense. Ryan Wadley is one of the best defenders i have seen in Chatt. And the two sophmores contribute a lot with some big shots and steals. Plus, Isiah Mouw is a great shot blocker and rebounder. They usually turn games around with their defense to give them layups on the other end(and dunks). Please don't make comments if you don't know what you are talk about.

I go to Temple and we are probally going to be relying on about 5 starting freshman and most the players have never played organized football before. Our middle school team won the championship this year and we have a lot of athletes but we are still going to have a very tough season.

TN Temple will go all the way. They have to many bigtime players and they have a lot of desire to win. Plus they are defending champs.

My vote is Ryan Wadley from Tennesee Temple.

Jake Skogen for A Mr. Basketball.
