  1. I will bet you the Gibson Female Pioneers will not beat Millington or Covington. Won't happen.
  2. We didn't. We sure would have. Prayers for this young lady. This is the second surgery right?? She lit us up over at Westview a couple of years ago. We were hanging right with y'all for a while and she hit 5 or 6 3's in a row and took the game over. Sure hate to see players get hurt. At the HS level in these smaller towns it sure is hard to overcome losing one let alone two.
  3. Good game by Westview. Girls fought hard and y'all took it to us first half. Y'all were really pumped up. Big time atmosphere from both fan bases. Proud of our girls for grinding it out. Two great programs. Good luck to y'all going forward. Maybe one of us will win it.
  4. If the round 2 version of this years rounds happens, very possible they can give GC a run for their money. Think it was a 2 point game in the 4th quarter in that one. Haskins is a really good coach and his defense is a thorn in everybody's side. Always got a chance in whoever they play.
  5. So good possiblility we see Dyersburg, South Gibson, South Side and Chester County all in Murfreesboro. Interesting. I do think Dyersburg and South Side have a better shot at Upperman and White County personally. South Gibson will be even better next year and year after with all their Jr. High help. South Side and Dyersburg also very young as is Crockett County. Probably a safe bet you will see 3 of the 4 again the next couple of years.
  6. Well looks like they had their biggest test last night against Creekwood and passed it big time. Chester County is pretty good as well. Dyersbirg looks like they are in stride. South Side with a big win last night. We played Creekwood before Christmas. Pretty good team.
  7. Just looked at the bracket. Looks like their substate is Macon County or Station Camp. Not 100% but that is what I am seeing from Region 5.
  8. I kinda like Gibson County and Wilkins being in an underdog role if we make it there. Still have a little work to do. Kinda takes a little pressure off as Gibson County over the years have been ranked number 1 several times going up there. AA is loaded though. We seen Summertown knock off a good Cannon County team who played White County tough twice this year. I mean it's a blessing to get there. A double blessing to win it. I do think the posters on here making all these predictions aren't approved by the coaches. Everyone in the state knows how loaded AA is. GP and McMinn are great teams as the rest of the field is really good as well.
  9. Great win for Jackson South Side last night as they beat a real good Creekwood team. They have a big time Freshman player maybe D-1. Congratulations to the Lady Hawks. They are in District 12 I believe playing in the Middle Tennessee bracket. South Side seems to be really playing good at the right time.
  10. Hate to see that. She is a great player. I will be praying for her for a speedy recovery. Savannah and Mikayla have been great players and have really been fun to watch. Congratulations on a great run. It is a blessing to get to the state tournament and a double blessing to win a state and back to back is even better. Congrats to Wayne County. Good bunch of folks there. We have a little history with Wayne County. Kelcey Risner was a star player at Union and Wayne County and really helped mentor my niece at camps at Union her and Kayla Hudson while she was really young in her basketball career and we think a lot of Kelcey. Good luck to Mikayla and Savannah and the Lady Rebels going forward. Great career.
  11. Wonder what happend to Reynolds?? Must have been pretty bad to make her leave the game. I figured Mckenzie would have the mental edge because of past meetings. But Wayne County found a way to win the game when they didn't play well. I figured it might be an ugly game with lots of Turnovers. Still have to hand it to Wayne County. They might have played it different had Reynolds not gotten hurt. Probably knew it was difficult for Mckenzie to score and they just started running clock.
  12. We all live together year round. Three miles apart. All will be good tommorow. Emotions in a game. Congratulations to Peabody on a great year. Gibson County very fortunate to beat them 4 times. Very athletic and good basketball team. They beat USJ during the season who is in the Final Four in the private sector. Proud of our girls. We have had a great year going undefeated so far against Peabody and Westview. Very blessed we are. Very proud to be a part of a great program. Again congratulations to Peabody.
  13. Sounds like y'all had the Middle Tennessee refs. Reason. I say that is there has been a shortage around there for a while and just have guys that are not very good. Congrats on a big win for Huntingdon.
  14. Wayne County with a huge win as well. That District is always tough. Congrats to Pickett County and Clay County. Sounds like the Freshman put on a show. Gibson County survived a dogfight ourselves.
  15. Clarkrange and Rogers always tough and with a lot of tradition and hardware. Like to watch them play.
  16. They will have to tighten up on Davis. She shot them out of the gym in Murfreesboro last year. 8-11 from 3 point land or something like that. If Wayne County can somewhat turn this into a half court game, I think the post will hurt Mckenzie bad. They don't have anyone to guard her I don't think. Like another poster said in this thread, Wayne County don't need to get down quick in this one like the last two. If they survive the first quarter or so, it will help them for sure mentally.
  17. I had no idea Wayne County lost to East Hickman during the season. I knew they lost to Loretto. Seen where they beat Summertown twice. I agree supporting cast is important and that has been the question mark all year for Mckenzie. Big question is will the team that beat USJ and Huntingdon show up tonight?? If so, Wayne County may be in trouble. Big question IMO is who is going to handle the ball better?? And how is Mckenzie going to guard the big post for Wayne County?? They can't guard her man to man you wouldn't think. But Mckenzie presses and it has bothered Wayne County the last two seasons. Best matchup in the state IMO because both teams are in a small group of Title Favorites.
  18. Does Clatkrange have any shot at Pickett?? Can't believe I am typing this.
  19. Yeah and Johnny Morgan would not be happy with him giving a lot of bulletin board material out there cause these players read these boards. Johnny I know personally and is not like this at all. Very respectful of opponents even if he is 40 points better than a particular team. Yeah and York is loaded I will agree. Very good.
  20. I am not talking about Upperman game. Just talking about District Tournment games over the years around here. They need to go to strictly Regions so the seeding can be accurate. District Tournaments are very corrupt and have been for years. You see missed lay ups in droves, careless Turnovers, missed FT's where sometimes they hit the blackboard, very weird substitutions....TSSAA needs to do away with the District Tournaments and just go to Regions where everyone will play each other all during the year. It is a problem and has been. The Riverdale fiasco won't ever happen again but people that watch basketball year round know when teams are not giving their all in these District Tournaments.
  21. I have watched some games where teams have played bad and had weird substitutions when it absolutely benefitted them the most.
  22. Wouldn't be suprised if Pickett wins it all. Wayne County Mckenzie game will be crazy. Clay County always has a good team. Sounds like you know about East Robertson. Man tommorow night is when fans that hadn't been to games all year start showing up. That Wayne County Mckenzie game could have made a fortune if they could have played that game Tuesday. We all are playing same night.
  23. No doubt if Gibson County wasn't playing I would be there. I am like you. Two questions I have is can Wayne County get over the mental hurdle of losing to Mckenzie and Davis and Reynolds the last two years?? And can Mckenzie guard the 6'1 dominant post of Wayne County and who can protect the ball the best?? I am like you. I just can't see Savannah Davis losing this one. I will have to see it to believe it. She seems to play her best against them. They shot like 75% against them at state last year. Good to luck to both though. Pickett County in a big one against Clarkrange that I forgot about. I also had no idea Sycamore beat Creekwood and put them in the bracket with South Side. That will be a sure enough dogfight. We have played both.
  24. Humboldt has another gear I agree. South Fulton pretty good team but Humboldt was much better. Humboldt definitely needs to win the Region and keep them at home for the sub-state. I agree they have to turn it up a notch defensively. But they looked really athletic with their guards and powerful around the glass. You have to think they will be a handful for whoever and whenever.
  25. Many many more I know I have probably left off. Wayne County Mckenzie last two Title games battling out again may be the war of all wars. Gibson County Peabody will be a war as always. Creekwood South Side. How come we have to play these all in one night?? This the biggest Monday Night ever. Unreal matchups.
