AAA is a toss up, but TO from bradley will have the best numbers, he is not the best AAA player..Mo Miller takes that title. Wattad will have huge numbers but his team wont be as good as the other two. AA is prob a no brainer..Jewuan Long was the state tourney MVP last year as a jr. his team will be great again this year..he wont put up huge numbers but will win this award. Robinson will not because his team is not very good. Robinson is a tad bit hyped but hype doesnt always win the award.. A- Carter MC Masters..this is a no brainer, his team will win the championship and he will put up huge numbers. Williams of culeoka is a year away from this award

Coach TB, This is "little hooper" as you called me during your last camp. I plan on attending your camp in Atlanta this weekend, if my mom can take me, but no matter what I will be at the one in clarksville. I wanted you to know that I went from a JV bench player to a starter after practicing all of the drills we did at camp! I will be a senior next year and just got my first letter! Thanks coach...hope to see you this weekend?

Please post any make up games, due to snow!

Like I stated before im not a bolivar fan or lexington fan, im a fan of basketball. Mack Gardner and Willie Kemp are coaches dreams. Mack is a floor general, gets people involved, and makes his teamates better. He pushes the ball every trip, and looks for the open man. It is highly unfair to him because if lexington loses then he will be the blame, and if they win then the team will get the praise. Ive seen him play about 5 times from his freshman year, and he will be fine on the next level. He has the qualities of a POINT GUARD. Ken Bingham could not play point guard at the DI level. He is a talented player, but does not handle the ball, or make the right decisions to get it done on that level. Again I will say he is ultra talented, but is not a point. Willie is Willie. He is a scoring point guard, a basketball player. He makes winning plays, whether it be scoring 10 in a row to get his team back in the game or dishing out assists to Chism down low. He is a once in a lifetime talent. These two are the best at their position in the state bar none. There are alot of people that dribble the ball up the floor start the offense and pass the ball to the wing. But Gardner and Kemp both are floor generals, can break any high school press and make the right decision. Thats where I base my comparison, on the two. Bolivar proved they are the better team thats not the issue. To compare the two from a talent standpoint is very unfair, but I am comparing basketball IQ, and both kids are off the charts from that aspect, and thats why they both are playing DI basketball!

I think Gardner takes alot of flack because of his dad is the coach. From what I saw, his college coaches from Martin where there to watch him play. This probably led to him pressing a bit, i would assume, because I everytime I read the box scores he had at least 15 or more. Ill say this I am a neutral fan, I came to the game to see 2 very good point guards. Both will do fine at the level they signed. I believe if Gardner was 6'2 he would be a high major talent. Judging for a point guard position, not just a player that dribbles the ball up the court, Gardner makes his teamates better, just as good as anyone I have seen this year. Kemp tonight was great, Gardner was good. Anyone who knows anything about basketball can tell you that Gardner makes great decisions, pushes the ball, all the intangibles that it takes to run a team. He does not have to score 30 a night to win, but he has to have 8 assists for his team to win. Gardner will not be looked upon to score at UTM. Willie may or may not be looked upon to score.Thats left to be determined on who he plays with. Willie kemp was the absolute reaal deal! But to get on here and rip a kid, and say he is not good because he didnt score a ton of points, shows your ignorance on the game of basketball!

These are without a doubt the best two Sr. point guards in West TN without a doubt, maybe #1 and #2 senior point guards in the state. This could be the makings of a great night of basketball!!

1. Willie Kemp- (Bolivar)Accolades speak for itself. 2. Gerald Robinson-(MLK) Wont be able to see how talented he is because of his system, but is dynamite! 3. Mack Gardner-(Lexington) Say what you want about this small point guard, no one in the state wil have more assists than this guy. If you dont believe me then check out one of his games.

Getting a student section together, need I ideas, chants, cheers...thanks prodigie_15@msn.com

what ever happened to allen rigsby

Ill say this...my child would never play for a coach that dodges another team. That sends the wrong message. Teams drive and fly from all over to play in this tournamment. Alot of money is spent, and to forfiet to a team, where they dont get a game in, is obsurd. Its not fair to the girls, or the coaches that may have come to that particualr game. Isnt the name of this team. Tennessee "Pride." Where is the "Pride" That does not represent TN very well at all.

I will agree. My son attended advanced, and it was much more of a camp, workout atmosphere, than a regular University campus camp, that serves as a babysitting purpose. My child learned instructions in more of a one on one basis than going to a camp, that has 300 kids. The camp was only 60 bucks. I feel that they got cheated out of money, because the service they provided was much more than a 60 dollar value. My son will be at every camp they have thats in TN until he graduates. In turn with learning new drills he learned at ton more about the game of basketball.

area code???

All of these statments are incredibly false!! Not even remotely true.

Thanks my email is thorton_joe@yahoo.com

Looking to find a team for a rural west TN kid. Any help would be appreciated.

Wow, did I speak to soon! It just looked like it was going to be a blowout. I actually didnt want UNAKA to win. I was hoping for some kinda reverse jinx!!! and it worked

About to be a blowout!!!

thanks!!

Good season Temple. No gold ball this year though.

Im a big fan of high school hoops, and I wanted to compile of list of guys I hear so much about on the boards, and watch them at the state tourney!!! Who are the top two college prospects from each team in Each class?

Sometimes bigger schools have weighted scales. Like honors classes and AP classes. The scale could be anywhere from a 4.5-5.0. Trust me I was confused about it too.

How can you say whos is worthy of what! You get on here and argue with a 14 or 15 yr old. Anyone with any sense would know that a 14 or 15 yr old isnt mature enough to have a post with substance. You are 19 or 20. If you dont like his bragging about his JV team then leave it be. I swear I could remember post from you doing the same bragging last year as a "star" player on a team. That is highly classless. I just think its hilarious for you to get on these boards. Why dont you take a lesson from Noel himself. He plays ball, never taunts, or talks. Pure basketball player!! And as for your talent. I would bet my house in Vegas that chancey is a more talented player than you will ever be, and if he gets his attitude in check he will be playing college ball next year. So take your im tough attitude and go to the gym and rebound for Noel, and after that unleash the maroon pom-poms for the cheerleading squad or the Cheatam Crazies, or whatever yall are.

Kingcub00, I cant understand for the life of me why you get on these boards with a cocky attitude and try to bash NW high school. There record speaks for itself. And you are probably arguing with a kid freshman at that. You talk about how a program is run, like you played at White Station or something. Face it you are a washed out baller, who trys to relive your days on this board. If you want I will say what you are looking for. "What if Cheatam had Bowers this year, boy they miss him" There you happy? Shouldnt you be in college playing ball, chasing after women or something. Face it man no one cares about #00 anymore. I can hear you response, (You can talk behind a cpu, I bet you never played basketball, who are you, dont worry about me, and what i do.) Duke is not going to recruit you. Sorry guys..this kid needs to be humbled a bit
