^{Teams from the West will be...Chester County, Lexington, Covington, Crockett County, Milan}

I watched Dyer County and they look like contendors again if they can get past the Memphis teams...Also i heard Collierville looks good..

What about AA teams??? Lexington??? Chester County i've been hearing good things about them its time for them to have a good Team..

My thoughts was that i read alot about the East and Middle and wanted to know more about West Tn. teams and if your from the East and Middle you might want to know who to watch for and why...Also i read the newspaper postings that Coach T puts online about all teams there isn't alot of links about West Tn. teams may be they don't have many News papers down there...

Also Didn't Arlington win state last year in AAA and Riverside in A and USJ in the private sector

I like reading about all Tn. teams also i go to alot of games in East, West, and Middle and scout for some smaller Colleges

District #13 and #14 who are the teams that got a shot in each division A, AA, AAA, D-1 and D-2.

Tired of hearing about Middlle and East Tn. teams and not much from West..

What teams to watch who have a chance to play in the state Tournament....

What happened to Mike MeLeary?? and where is he at now?? And why is he not at MTSU??

^{I heard Lexington got Beat By Milan last night 10 to 1 with Small on the mound if they have such good hitters how did they only put up 1 run???}

• I haven't got a Dog in this but i can say that this hurt there recruiting because there was alot of kids going to make Verbal commits after the WWBA in Atlanta. My son being one of them and we was suppose to go by MTSU for the tour and the offer after that tournament..They contacted us and told us that everything was on hold because of the coaching situation..We had them on our top 3 to decide from and we went another way....But we had told all other coaches when we was making decision and wanted to be true to our word.
  
• MTSU is a great place to play baseball C. Mcguire and C. Mclure are great guys and i seen one of these guys in Atlanta (Perfect Game), TBCA event in Mboro and Atlanta at UT, USA stadium, Austin Peay, U of Memphis...
  
• My only statement is the coaching staff at MTSU knows about your son maybe its not what they need or there is some underlining issues...Good Luck and i'm sure that he will decde whats best for him.
  

Playing at Vandy ...I heard might be in the making...That would be great if they could make that happen..

4 Players will compete...Garner, Harrison, Walker, Powell

Harrison will probably get the job..Tall, atheletic, has some speed but lacks arm strength but you really don't need that at Milan they only throw it 8 to 10 times a game if that...But why should you when you can win running..

Powell... If he wants it...The starting QB for Milan has a younger brother but heard he don't want to be QB...He is very fast and has an arm...Morris likes a young guy to mold for 3 years...

Congrats Fairview on your year, hope to see yall next year. Talked to several players and they said ya'll was the best team they faced all year..But when you get to these games it comes down to who makes the fewest mistakes and who prepares the best.. Just like Milan last year against Goodpasture. Milan is also returning alot of JRs...Great game and great facilities great atmosphere.

I have watched both teams and Westview is playing better ball right now..I never thought Crockett County would be a game for S.Gibson and they lost...They Peaked when they played Milan and lost but on the other hand Westview has gotten better every game and Coach Coady is a master at coaching what he has and making the best of it.

S.Gibson has all kinds of coaching and all aren't on the same page also riding on the two Walden boys without them your team struggles now that everyone knows this teams key on them and shut you down like CC.

Saying this both are in the playoffs and both teams can upset someone just don't won't to be last team and play Milan at home ...Wish this game was on Thursday night for I would be there.

Milan had an incident like this 4 or 5 years ago and TSSAA approved this kid. But come to find out he wasn't living were the parents said he did and TSSAA investigated and found that to be true and took several wins away from Milan...Maybe some people from Milan could shed more light on this because i don't know all the details.

Big game for both programs other than the gate who wins it?

Quote.."Who else can say they play on a Division 1 stadium with turf."

Remember Milan has played for several State Championships on other College Campuses how many has Martin?? I wished they would hold them at UTM it wouldn't be so far for MILAN fans to drive. That would be a great tradition for UTM to start then they would make even more money from High School Football.

Westview would get to go to STATE then..

I seen Martin play they look bad right now and the only thing they have is Haddad and Thompson if Mckenzie plays any defense they will win..

Westview--14

Mckenzie--28

On the Arm of Coleman don't really understand that?

As far Milan and Humboldt these are the 2 best teams in Gibson County and rivals as to the out come if Milan plays like they have so far and don't take care of the ball on offense look for Humboldt to win on good field position..But this game will be a game of defense both teams are very good and could be won by a field goal.Humboldt wants to beat Milan very badly and they have home field advantage going for the upset.

Milan--21

Humboldt--24

Milan for they have all there returning pitching.

I was at the Riverside -- Milan game and it was a great game Gant had his normal great stuff but the kid from Milan also had a great game Milan beat Gant 2-1 don't know his name it was #8 he also had a homerun and a double off Gant heard he was a Soph. could someone give his name.

What is the best organazation or event? Perfect Game? Under Armour?

Daniel Norris is ranked #1 in the nation under Perfect game for 2011 recruits. So saying that he has got to be very good and i'm sure going to be drafted. But saying all that this forum is about West Tn. players and what players to watch.

And if any want to see how Tn. players are ranked go www.perfectgame.com Player rankings for Tn. or You can select all states.

G-field has some great players that has been together a long time. A team that don't know how to lose. When you drive thru there town you see several signs show different baseball state champions and this is the group thats done it. It would be great to see them win one for there school. It helps the whole town. I also remember in the 80's several of these guys Dad's winning a State in basketball and playing in several playoff games before they done it. THE HARD WORK WILL PAYOFF THIS YEAR.

Go Yellowjackets

Chase Hamilton--Arlington

Jordon Barnes--Arlington

Dalton Dulin---MUS

Victor Cole--MUS

Garrett Copeland--Bolton

Reed Matheny--USJ

Ryan Garner--USJ

Tyler Hardin--USJ

Caleb Powell--Milan

Drake Parker--Union City

Dylan Slayton--Trenton

Carlos Williams--Covington

I know there are some that was left off there was a kid from Dyer County and one from JCS but can't remember there names sorry. I think everyone of these guys started every game as a Freshman and even some made All district team.

SERIOUSLY?.............you must be a 2013 player, huh? this is too far away to even think about!!!

I disagree, if you want to go to a D1 SEC college you better start working now and talking to coaches and going on unofficial visits. Look at perfect game 2013 Grad players and player rankings and look to the far right and see what college they have verbal committed to already and then go to Dulins website and see there are already 3 that play for them thats 2013 grads that has verbally committed.. I'm not a 2013 player but i have a son that is and we have played in showcases at Kentucky, Tennessee, MTSU, OLE Miss, Miss State, Ark. State, Memphis State and have went to 2 of them on Unofficial visits and talked to several of the coaches on the phone you must call them for they can't call you until the summer after there JR. year. SO YOU KEEP THINKING THAT IS TO FAR AWAY cause its not for us.
