  1. What’s the word here, no new postings for either job. What about the boys job? Would be interesting to lose both boys and girls coaches.
  2. Humboldt boys have started to figure it out it seems. That halls game is gonna be a good one. If you can try and find the video of the Strayhorn kid dunking on Bradford HS last week it was wild. Old school Humboldt athleticism, looked like Desonta Bradford, Charles Taylor, or Tevin Crayton.
  3. Anyone watched them play? Saw they lost a couple of games already and had some really close ones as well even against Madison, heard they were down at the half?
  4. UC has to be a strong favorite from 14A to make it to state. Humboldt losses everyone and Lake Co. loses Coleman. Gibson Co. brings back everyone and they made a strong push late in the season. How does BTW look and Lead Academy? Trying to go through state tourney teams and what they return.
  5. Anyone heard any names mentioned? Is there an asst. on staff they are looking at? Bring back a ton of talent? Could attract a big name, but could be where they look young to build for a while with the support and rise in talent. Opinions?
  6. Big matchup tonight in Humboldt tonight as the Humboldt Vikings take on the UC Tornados. Who ya got?? I say Humboldt in a VERY close one. 65-61
  7. Any class, any area! What districts look to be absolute must watches as they unfold. I would say AAA in murfreesboro with Siegel and Blackman, possibly LaVergne. AAA wilson county with Gallatin, Wilson Central and Lebanon. A would have to be Humboldt, Union City, and S. Fulton. As well as 16A in Memphis with Mitchell and BTW. Any others?
  8. How good is Hampton? There record indicates they are pretty strong, but everytime a team from the east travels to the Boro, west TN always takes home the gold.
  9. Looking at Kenwood's schedule they have had struggles recently, with even a loss to Springfield, a team they beat by 30 earlier. Are they injured or have kids missing? They are a very solid UNIT, but without all their pieces I am not sure Norl can carry them all the way.
  10. SS seems to have a very talented 5, but a lack of a bench could keep them from making a run. As good as Barford and McNeal are, they will only go as far as Hicks takes them just because of his matchup issues and versatility. Love Barford's feel for the game, but Hicks will be the X-factor if they make a run,
  11. Heard a rumor their top 3 kids (#10, #4, #33) were caught stealing at wal-mart and have to serve a 6-game suspension. Has anyone heard of this?? All seemed like good kids, so very skeptical of the rumor, but wanted see what was out there. Would be a huge blow, they are a dangerous team.
  12. Haven't seen Jordan Varnado's name mentioned. The junior from Haywood and little brother of Jarvis "Swat" Varnado, can play. He has the ability to score from all levels of the floor. He is only a JR so I would probably give my pick to Barford because he is a SR, if you can only have one from each section of the state, but he is still worth consideration.
  13. This looks pretty accurate I would say. Norl is a D1 kid who can flat out shoot it. Leron is a known name for sure. And Sibley is probably the most talented in East TN AAA.
  14. Desonta Bradford from Humboldt for sure. The kid is only kid outside of Memphis in single A with D1 scholly offers that I know of. As accomplished Spears is, he is going to Bryan (not a knock) just shows the true difference in the abilities and competition. If he Bradford isn't nominated it will be pure politics. The kid was one of 24 mcdonalds nominees from TN.
  15. Good to hear he turned has started to turn the corner. When I saw him the competition wasn't great and he seemed to drop towards the level of it. How big has he gotten? He had a good frame, just looked like needed to put in the work. Who is the assistant now? Is he a good basketball guy for the team? Last year seemed they won more on talent than anything.
