    Wayne is a good power forward. He doesn't have the size or skill set to keep up with premier centers. But TN obviously needs more than just Wayne and Duke (who should play the 3 in reality). Losing Wingate hurt the depth at post. Next year he doesn't have many bigs coming in, so it will be big for him to get a post in 2008

     

     

     

    You guys have gone off the subject. As far as this one goes , Greeneville should win easily if they play DEFENSE. It would also be good if SH's coach plays OMAR for more than half the game so there is no excuse. Let the kids play , after all this may be the last time they play face to face! Let's hope the referees don't try to influence the outcome either. Should be a great one either way. Duncan may be the difference

  2. Yeah but your examples aren't in the "Bruce Pearl" era

    By the way I like Oglesby and wished Pearl had at least gave him a look. Was asking more as wondering but also see Wiggins as a real talent and hate to see Pearl keep passing on "local kids". Pat Summit and Phil Fulmer could teach him one there. I love Pearl. Love his passion for the game and his intensity. I just think the UT programs have a need to support the community that supports them. Buzz failed to realize that and it may have more of a factor than you will hear publicly.

  3. I am sure being from Greenville has nothing to do with it.........

    I am a fan of Wiggins myself and have seen him in many situations this summer. Hurt or not he was not very consistent, but definitly has been this season. The real test comes when they play the best competition in the country, like the NBA-camp both Terrence and Antwan were invited to this summer. Antwan had a hard time playing well where as T.O, blended well.

     

    Just wondering out loud "If Terrence blended so well with the NBA camp and is so much better than Wiggins and who knows else, why did Bruce Pearl not recuit him? Pearl said he will make sure to keep the best talent in Tennessee? Wiggins can play for UT and would not be surprised to see him there in the future.

  4. Hopefully your coach ranks among one of the best. Recently on another post someone mentioned a coach holding his star player back. What are some of the qualities of a great coach of integrity? Or worst yet one who has sold out? Please dont metnion names unless you are positive or I am sure this post will get censored and removed. We need more coaches like Duncan from Greeneville who gets my vote for number one.

  5. In the few times that I have seen the kid play, it definitely seems that the coach is holding him back. I haven't seen Wiggins play, but Omar is as good as I have seen this year. With that said, slow down Omar- stop the Hill. That's alot easier said than done, but DB and Central has done it. Unless mor playmakers step up, I don't see The Hill going past regionals.

    THS caught DB at the right time when they weren't playing well and one of thier best players, if not the best was out. We'll see what happens in Bristol.

     

    At least Duncan is not afraid to feature his star player (Wiggins). I know some coaches are "jealous" of their star players and intentionally hold them back. They seem to be trying to say the real reason we win is because I am a great coach not because we have the best player or players. Where have all the great coaches gone? To Greeneville? Duncan is too wise to be jealous of his players and knows how to motivate the least of them! Plus he is not into playing politics . Integrity is the key. Players respect that in a coach and respond accordingly. No wonder some teams fall apart with all the talent (players) in the world.

  6. Dont know about the rest of the state but Wiggins is the best all around player in the East. He is simply too tough for the East and dont know if there is any player that has his all around ability or could match up with him?Oglesby can shoot with the best ,but is one dimensional. I expect Greeneville to dominate not just the regular season as they are 19-1 but also the regionals and sub state. After all who in the East can stop them em?

  7. How do you know that the player was humiliated? You act as if you interviewed the player post-game and asked him. Simply put, anybody that has spent time on the sideline of any sport knows everyone ticks differently, and it's the good coaches that know how to get their players to respond. I've seen Dickson's coach a few times, and I've never seen him do anything remotely out of line. Just because you are uncomfortable with his reaction doesn't make it wrong.

    Verbal abuse is sometimes more damaging than physical abuse. When adults use verbal abuse to publically undress a kid , it is time to ask that adult to resign from their position of authority. Coaches and teachers "should" be held to a higher level of conduct. After all they should be the "example"adult ,not the problem child.

  8. Now MObuck, if your gonna rag on Dreambig you gotta save some for Cruel who thinks:

     

    "Greenville will be disappointed this year. Last time I checked, it takes more than one player on a basketball team to win a ballgame. There are teams in Greenville's conference that are more than capable of slowing Wiggins down underneath. Sorry Greenville fans, you will be able to chear for one player's statistics but you won't be able to chear much for the Greenville team's success this year. I see Greenville going to the playoffs but they will be put out early."

     

    early?... by who?... TN High?... Sullivan Central?...

     

    I don't think 3 or 4 in Big 9 can beat Greeneville or Cherokee. I'm not too sure 1 or 2 is good enough to beat Greeneville this year.

     

    FYI..South Greene beat MOWest...guess we can scratch them off the playoff list :thumb:

     

     

    Greeneville has the total package and should go all the way this year. The district wont even be close.

  9. How will the IMAC stack up against the likes of Farragut,Halls,Ooltewah,DB,McMinn County,SouthDoyle etc? Are any IMAC teams even in the top ten preseason? Are we going to have to be under the radar like Greeneville basketball...until the very end.....surprise,surprise surprise!

  10. i hope greeneville wins the region and substate. they would play Hamilton 1st round and get beat probably by 50. that would wake all of these greeneville fans up. i have seen highlights of hamilton and they look awseome. there is no way wiggins should be mentioned in with Mr. Basketball. And Tony White jr. IS better than wiggins. i have seen both of them play.

     

    Good news Greeneville fans, you'll dont have to worry about playing hamilton. Sullivan Central is no joke and the knoxville teams are a level above region 1AAA.

    I was told to shut up or I would say something about that................we will just wait and see................

  11. Just because I said I think Greeneville will win doesnt mean I wont be pulling for South. I would like to see South pull the upset but I doubt it will happen. The G-devils are more talented than the Rebels. South will have to win this game by simply out hustling greeneville.

    South will show up for the game and that will be the last time the score is tied...........Greenevile will win by more than 20 <_<

  12. THAT'S EXACTLY RIGHT, GREENVILLE WOULDN'T EVEN BE ABLE TO COMPETE WITHOUT THEM. WE DON'T RELY ON TRANSFERS AND RECRUITING TO WIN. D1 AAA CHAMPIONS AHHHHHHHHHHH!!! THAT SOUNDS PRETTY GOOD. WE'LL TALK MORE IF YOU MAKE IT PAST SCIENCE HILL FIRST

     

    People transfer to Greeneville becasue we have the best basketball program and coach in Tennessee . Central will see why real soon and maybe some of there players will want to transfer to :0 Nothing wrong with transferring is there?

  13. ComexxOriginal2221 who saids I was for SH stupid ###### and you should not talk about mother that way it is not nice. callin your mom a ho tisk tisk buddy.Oak Ridge #1.

     

    Wiggins is the best player in East

    Tennessee and Guthrie and Basile and White are not even in the same ballpark.

    Greeneville will make it to at least the substate and hopefully Tony will see why Wiggins should be Mr Basketball if his team is still there. Let's get real.

  14. Coach Duncan is an outstanding coach, and an upstanding man - as well. I have nothing but the upmost respect for him on and off the court.

     

    He was successful at Seymour. And will continue to be successful at Greeneville.

     

    Coach Duncan may yet pull it off, but we will have trouble winning the IMAC from what I hear? East and

    West may be tougher than expected. Still think they wil have to go through Greeneville.

  15. sounds to me like Duncan recruited him another good team murner and boone and now higgins what else you want. Its obvious he recruits.

    Murner is gone to Florida and Boone's dad is the coach at Tusc and get the name right it is Wiggins not higgins

     

    How is that recruiting? I hear East Jeff and West may beat us anyway this year? They say there all reloaded I was only kidding about a walk in the park. Besides Greeneville is a small school and needs all the help to compete with you bigger schools
