Legit question why is Simpson considered a 5 star and was being recruited by like 30 schools and Winn wasn’t ?  I’m curious what you think 

Ty has spent his summers at every exposure camp across the US. Winn spent his summers throwing a baseball across the US.  Winn didn’t go to one football camp. Not saying it would have helped but it sure wouldn’t have hurt. Ty is a great football player and a fine young man. He has worked his tail off be as good as he is. I am not taking anything away from him and his accomplishments. He will do well at Bama!

Can’t believe that I am commenting on this but Winn was 4-1 against Peabody in his high school career. He beat them as a freshman, moved away for his sophomore year, went 1-1 as a junior and then 2-0 as a senior. As a senior he completed 77% of his passes. He had more tds than incompletions. I would say he was pretty accurate. I have no idea how many tds he threw against Peabody but I remember 6 in one game.  He has been a tremendous role model for Ty the past 4 years.

I agree with that. GreenfieldFan has taken it to the edge a couple of times, but that's alright. We're all very proud of our girls, but some of these posters on here are downright offensive and ignorant. I've got family that has been through our program and through Westview's program and I know how they go about their business. Discipline, humility, and respect...for themselves and others. That's why I "snap" back at times myself. 

Let me understand what you are saying. Because some posters have said Greenfield stomped GC and would do the same to Westview they are offensive and ignorant. They not mentioned any names of players or called out any individual out YET you can call out not one but two fan bases of towns and you are not offensive and ignorant. Just because the only posters praising GC are GC posters doesn’t make them ignorant. Just because you disagree with a poster doesn’t make them ignorant. GC had a good team and will always be highly competitive but to trash people you don’t know is ignorant. Now that is #thetruth.

Oh.. I see. Your pretty clever! Pretty cocky.  I know. You can be because you have 2 studs and a good coach. But I do like that response!!! These two programs are on a different level in terms of history. Check back with when you have a few more state Tournament appearances and some Gold or Silver balls, Regional, Substate and District  Championship plaques, then we can talk!  As I stated on numerous post, Greenfield is the favorite to win based on paper and they very well may . This year. Repeat apperances are what shows a quality program. You have a good coach, not sure about your feeder schools, but GC is locked and loaded. Has been since the late 80's. If they do win this year, congratulations. Your girls worked hard and would deserve it. Good day. And those are the facts too!!

Nobody is talking about history and tradition except the Gibson County fans.  Yes GC has a lot of both but to down play how great Greenfield has been all year is a disgrace.  I don't care for Greenfield but they had one of the best teams I have ever seen.  No reason to be offended by people saying they would have won the state if it had been finished.  GC played the best game they could play in the regional championship and still got beat 17 or 18.  Absolutely nothing to be ashamed of because Greenfield monkey stomped everybody but Loretto this year. I thought Loretto would have a chance if they played again but that isn't going to happen. GC fans talk about Dresden fans but they really need to take a good long look at themselves.

Greenfield 69

Union City  53  -   Final 

29-0 District Champs - Great job girls

Tough game!  But we needed that. Listened on radio and they thought the game got really physical.  Sounded like the UC fans got crazy again. Union City needs to get their students under control but that’s hard when your boys coach acts like he does. 

Are you serious? Get the student section under control?  Student sections are supposed to be out of control. Have you ever watched a Duke game? You need to take the blinders off and come down off your high horse and actually watch and listen to your own fans and I am not talking about the students. The adults tell opposing players they suck and don’t deserve to be playing against Greenfield. You always want to get on here and talk about how people act but never mention your own crowd. Lastly, Shane Sisco spends his time coaching his players and they respect and listen to him. His players act right and play the game hard and they win. I know now you are going to say just let you enjoy this team because your school is so small and it doesn’t happen very often. So enjoy it because your time is coming.

Greenfield never thought they were gonna lose tonight even though it was closer than the final score. They are on another level talent wise and mentality wise. Moore took over in the second half and carried them again. As for the first game, Gleason coach should be fired and the parents of the players should be very disappointed in their daughters for going along with him. As somebody stated earlier, Randy Frazier would never consider losing intentionally.

No comment. You just don’t understand what this team means to our little town.  We have less than 40 kids in our senior class and this don’t happen often. We play the Union City’s, Dyersburg’s, Jonesboro’s 6A, Loretto’s 540 kids and never complain. Line em up and let’s go these girls are focused and are great kids. Don’t be one of those negative Nancy’s that say the refs give Greenfield all the breaks. Appreciate this group of girls that have put so much into what they are doing, teams like this don’t come around often. 

I am from Dresden and I do understand what a great team means to a small town. 2016 was a wonderful year for Dresden. I am only speaking my opinion as to what I see when they play. When they played Dresden, Moore threw an elbow and the official told our coach that it wasn't a foul because she didn't hit anybody.  He acknowledged she threw the elbow. That is like throwing a punch but because you don't hit anybody you shouldn't get ejected. I have seen Greenfield play 7 times this year and they are fun to watch but they still get away with mugging the other team.

Greenfield plays 6 girls. They get away with grabbing, holding, pushing and elbowing like no other team I have seen. If they run into a crew that doesn't give them this ability to foul it will get interesting really quick.  They are a great offensive team with a lot of weapons and they play extremely hard but they also get to foul more than other teams.  You can call it great defense if you want but when it happens to Greenfield their fans stand up and go crazy. They never foul and always get fouled. Still my favorite to win it all but nobody will just roll over and give them gold ball.

Not an expert on college destinations from across the state but a bit of cursory research turned up these facts. In addition to the aforementioned Tess Darby, headed to Tennessee, I count 4 Class A Miss Basketball winners who played in the SEC. 

1986 Lynn Stevenson      Richland        Auburn

1995 Brynae Laxton        Oneida          Tennessee

1999 Ashley McElhiney   Gleason         Vanderbilt

2013 Jaycee Coe               Jackson Co.    Kentucky

That fills up one hand. Off the top of my head I can add Tiffany Adkins from Gibson Co. who started her career at Ole Miss. These are just SEC players from Class A. Know of some others who've gone to other power conferences such as ACC & Big 10. Not much of a jump for the best in Class A. 

As far as what Chloe does will be what is best for her and her family. We should not be concerned with it.

So 5 players in Class A have played in the SEC in the last 33 years and you say it is not much of jump. I think the sheer number alone should be enough to show it is a major jump in talent level.

I think she is a heck of a player and I have heard that she is holding out for Kentucky as well, BUT, as a former JUCO athlete and D2 athlete and coach, I dont think she has the motor to be a Power 5 guard nor does she play defense consistently. Again thats just my opinion, dont hang me, again i think she is a good player. I say go dominate at a high mid-major or low D1.

I bet Greenfield fan is looking for some rope right now.  Chloe Moore is a great Class A basketball player.  Probably will be Miss Basketball again but she is a Class A basketball player.  You can count on one hand the number of Class A players from TN that have played in the SEC.  It is a major jump in skill level.  She demonstrates night in and night out she is the best player on the floor against inferior talent.  She just hasn't played against the top tier talent in the country and that will or has hurt her. I am not knocking her at all because like many have said she would be my first pick if I had a Class A team. I hope she does go to Kentucky and I wish her the best in whatever she does because she has pounded Dresden for 4 years.

Greenfield is a great guy and very passionate about Greenfield basketball as I am about GC. He is just disgruntled obviously because they don't play. I wished they would play. I have no idea why the two don't play.

I think he is bipolar. One minute he is calling a team out and the next minute he is apologizing. I can’t figure him out.

A lot more to this stuff than what people realize....

Tennessee needs a shooter - Tess Darby.... they don't need a point guard....

The reality is, both of these players would not be having the success they're having without the other on the team.

The most accurate post I have read lately. Couldn’t agree more. You sir have a clue where as most do not.

I owe the Gibson County fans an apology, great game tonight.  I was tickled to death to see you pound Westview. It would have been easy to gave up early. Congratulations on a great win against Westview. You proved to me you are a lot better team than I gave you credit and by season end you will be even better. 
 

To the fans that keep saying Westview would beat Greenfield every year please don’t go there ever again. Westview will not play Greenfield and now you see why. Everybody in Greenfield has wanted to play Westview the last 5-6 years but they won’t play us. Just watch next year they will try and schedule us. The two teams are not even close. 

Make up your mind!! 

Does anybody pay attention to the Greenfield fans? They are horrible. Two old ladies on front row stand up and holler at the refs the whole game. If Greenfield gets touched that are screaming foul but they can tackle somebody and then scream let them play. Which one do you want? Quit talking about other fans when y’all are atrocious as somebody called Dresden fans.

The regular season means nothing. If Greenfield goes undefeated great for them and if they lose a game it will be ok.  They have more talent than any single a school in the state and everybody’s pick to win the state championship except for Loretto fans. But nobody is just going to roll over and hand them the trophy, refer back to last year if you think I am wrong.

I will say this. Greenfieldfan is the only Greenfield Fan that has congratulated me since we won the state and that statement he made above is his opinion but it is very disrespectful and not like something he would say. He seen us play as poorly as we ever have but he didn't see us play last night. Greenfield or Dresden or whoever we are playing I will not disrespect. I pull for whoever is at state from West TN if they are not playing us. Dresden, Westview Greenfield whoever. We play Dresden Tuesday Night in what could be a preview game of who goes to Murfreesboro later on in possibly a region showdown no disrespect to Gleason or UC because they are good too. Will be a very interesting game. I expect another war with Dresden. Even though they lost to Loretto they have a lot of talent especially in Childress and Wynn. Right now I would call it a pick em. They are always well prepared and play us very hard. 

He is a good guy that loves his team. All the post I have read of yours shows you love you some GC girls basketball. Nothing wrong with any of that and it is ok to get upset and speak your mind on here. I just never have understood why people get upset when somebody does say what they are really thinking. Now I will say this. If GC doesn’t beat Dresden on Tuesday they will definitely have a lot of improvement to do because Dresden is not very good.  Since this thread is Greenfield lady jackets I will get back on that point. They are very good and anything less than a state championship will be heartbreaking for them. That in itself can be way too much pressure even on a very experienced team like them.

Wow didn’t expect that.  

Help me understand. In one post you say let Greenfield fans enjoy this team and leave them alone BUT in another post you say how bad Westview is going to kill GC,  who is the defending state champ by the way.  Another poster says he saw some not passing to an open player. You tell them don’t go there. So it is ok for you to state your opinion but if somebody else does you get all upset. Coacht is about fans interacting with each other and that includes trash talking but people get upset and their feelings get hurt when some posters state their opinion.

I have no dog in the hunt here but it appears that the dad has made it very clear how this all went down.  He has been very transparent and it appears that everything has been done correctly.  No way Trevathan would take a chance without going through proper protocol.  There is too much at risk if not done correctly.  Why would you risk a state championship opportunity?   I think everyone should move on.  Dresden is an outstanding program with a great coach but they were not going to beat Greenfield this year with or without Peterson.  Good luck to both programs this year.

You are 100% correct.

Wow.....you reaching deep for that. You must like bullying kids hiding behind a screen name. Pretty sure this is not what CoachT was created for but whatever floats your boat....

You really don’t have to dig deep. Bullying? Not bullying anybody. Just stating tssaa transfer eligibility rules. What is your real name by the way? Surely it isn’t allvolhere.

Take the orange blinders off and look at it from a outsider. Jealously is obviously there. You had the best Single A team before Peterson. Her parents had the resources to get her to her 3rd high school in 4 years so more power to them but she is definitely ring chasing and will more than likely get one

People on here talk about the transfer being a legit transfer. There is more to being an eligible transfer than just a bona fide change of address. I guarantee you that Greenfield hasn’t contacted the tssaa and if they have they didn’t give them all the facts. According to the tssaa recruiting is illegal. Although hard to prove, does anybody know the transfer’s aau coach? The tssaa also says a player can’t transfer solely for athletic purposes. Did they move because Greenfield has better academics? I don’t think so. I don’t think the tssaa has a clue that she transferred and they probably don’t care but if they ever get involved it could get very interesting for Greenfield girls basketball.

Lionsupport answered it for you. You literally had a Dresden supporter tell you that if they had a daughter play basketball it would be somewhere else. 

I know why he isn't answering the question directly and respect him for that. He is being the bigger person here because he doesn't want to criticize anybody at Dresden.  My comment about playing somewhere else would simply be to have a chance to win a championship though.  Right now Greenfield is that place.  I have not been trying to bash a family for that because I would do the same thing.  But I would have said that in the beginning.

Ask Lionsupport - he seems to know everything!

I really don’t know that answer but it really doesn’t matter.  They didn’t need a reason for the young lady to transfer nor do they have to justify it to anybody. If I had a daughter playing basketball I would want her to play for Greenfield or Gibson County also. I sincerely apologize if I have offended anyone.

I usually don't jump in these type of discussions, but this is a prime example of one reason of probably 2 or 3 reasons why they chose to transfer. Dresden is not a powerhouse program, the Coach can't keep the kids for four years that have lived there their entire life, and a large portion of their fanbase is attrocious. I have several friends who are officials (basketball & football) and several friends who are current coaches (girls & boys) and the sentiment for the last 7-10 years is that Dresden is a "clique" community and when the outcomes don't occur like they'd like, they are #1 at blaming others. Now you're calling out a high school kid for something that her and her family discussed and decided to do. I hope that we give Greenfield good games this season, but I hope she lights Dresden up for fans like you. Go Lady Pioneers!!

I wasn’t the first to mention they were chasing a ring. The fact is she committed to Union before she had played one minute for Greenfield so to say that she wouldn’t have the opportunity to play at the next level by playing for Dresden is crazy. She is going to play for Union because of her performance at Dresden. Now, if they didn’t like the coach, the people, etc just say it. You getting on here saying Dresden is a clique town I say show me a town that doesn’t have cliques.

They rented a house in Dresden and now renting a house in Greenfield. The comment about playing at next level not being possible at Dresden is crazy.  Yes they are ring chasing.

Im hearing the QB whisperer that led Dresden to our first championship is on the list of candidates. Mountain Man from Gattlinburg Pitt. Just rumor I found really interesting 

If they get the money right, he will be the next Westview coach.
