Take a look again. The Stone starters are the first ones in line. This thread needs to get off penalizing Stone kids and hammer the officials on both sides.

Whew, thanks for the heads up. I will let it go.

Wait. What? 7aaa has been the road block for who? Do you even have a clue about high school basketball in TN? This is Stone Memorial's 1st year in AAA and I think we played siegel 4 years ago. We have been to the state tournament 2 out of the last 3 years in AA coming out of District 4. I like getting on here and reading or talking it up a little, but I usually know what I am doing. I don't think you have a clue and it really shows. You may need to wait on football season.

No, I really don't get your drift. This 10 vs 5 thing you keep bringing up is referring to siegel I think. We don't play them Monday. As far as an inside game, Does having a couple of 6'5 guys that can jump completely out of the gym count? What does "real talent" mean? Does Oak Ridge, Fulton, Union City, Lighthouse Christian,Austin-East, Maryville not have any talent? I'm thinking Stone is on this Chattanooga thread because we've played and beaten their best over the last couple of years. Put 98 on Brainerd last year. Tyner, McCallie, Ooltewah, Cleveland, Walker Valley, probably doubted us too but that's ok. I hope Blackmon does play a lot of their bench Monday night. Usually gets teams in trouble this late in the year. I like our chances with our 5 against anybody else's 10.

What does that mean? Is it over or have you got a shot? Stone has played in the sectional 3 out of 4 years and was a last second shot away last year. So it's safe to say that Monday night's game should be fun to watch. Those boys won't be shellshocked just because an athletic team rolls into town. Ooltewah saw that themselves. 44-5 at home the last 4 years stands out if you ask me and that's with usually one of the tougher schedules every year.

Regardless, it was clear these refs were not working together during this game. That call was not handled properly, thus the confusion. But it was a trip or a bump which the other 2 officials were calling all night. This ref hasn't blown his whistle all night and decides to get in on the action and absolutely froze. The official he ran to ask for help obviously saw something and bailed him out and that is what happened. If I would have been Cleveland's coach I would have gotten tossed and it would have a 6 pt loss instead of 2. It was a hard fought game.

You are correct. There was never a signal for a travel violation. The official that blew the whistle met with the one behind the play and got it right. That's what got everyone in an uproar. They obviously both saw the foul. Tough game because the refs were struggling I will admit.

It's ok. We get it all the time, not just you. We beat maryville hs twice this year at their place and their local paper called us the same thing. When Jones was at Alcoa and was on tv every week, he did the same thing. It's a running joke, but every now and then it hits a nerve.

Good Grief people. We are STONE MEMORIAL HIGH SCHOOL. We are from Crossville, TN. We have been to the state tournament 2 out of the last 3 years. I thought Tony Jones was the only one that couldn't get it right.

I watched that team play Oak Hill down to the wire. I think the 5 in 5 out rotation killed that team.

Guys, they usually draw numbers or flip at the coaches meeting before the season ever starts. I know that's what they did when Stone Memorial was in your district.

Devin Sibley-Karns. Signed with Furman. Getting 26 and 10 a game.

I can see by your roster you don't care for east tennessee basketball. Lol

You just described a heck of a player. Just think of what 2 more years of strength and maturity will add besides the 2500 pts. He won't have to worry about getting baled out by the refs. He's got a gear that east tn hasn't seen in awhile.

Yeah I love their potential but they shot it every time they touched it. Like the announcer said, you could double team the one with ball and they would struggle. Don't look to pass it at all. But, they are D-1.

Derward Vaughn-Livingston Academy. Robert High-Braneird. Mark Bray-Cumberland County. Jody Wright-Fulton already has a gym named after him

That pretty much sums up the atmosphere at their gym saturday.

We should both meet in the district and region final.

I don't know who you are or if you are even from Chattanooga, but obviously you have been around this game awhile and know what's going on. I feel the same way.

Out of the 36 or so posts on this thread, you sir, are by far the smartest guy in Chattanooga. You just summed up the whole state.

I'm just glad they didn't list us as Stone Mountain.

Just be thankful you got guys that are taking them to big tournaments. Any AAU coach worth anything should be developing these kids to get exposure and make their high school teams better. I guarantee you the kids that play for the Elite are the best players on their high school team. And if those guys are working with younger kids, you will see Chattanooga ball start to compete at the state level. Soon.

I think winning 6 or 7 in a row was a big reason for losing to Alcoa sat. Winning like that gets kids complacent some and after seeing them come out of the locker room I wouldn't want to roll into Stone Memorial this friday night. The Alcoa game didn't mean a thing but I am sure the kids know what's up vs Sparta. It will be fun to watch win or lose.

Yeah, you got to really impress those voters when you're from smallsville like we are!

Hey TCB and the lady jets are 16-0 and ranked 9th? Wow. Should have started another thread, sorry.
