  1. Waverly might be 9-1 or 10-0 on the regular season. I'm telling you, they are a bunch of tough Tigers. I'm hoping they can make a deep playoff run this year. Should be in position to .....................................

    Take it one game at a time.  Great showing last night.  Time to get ready for Loretta.

  2. The seniors played hard last year. They got beat by a team that found something we struggled with to stop. They kept running it and did not come out of it. This defense this year seems faster to me but that is just an opinion and we all have one.

    I agree with your opinion LBKiller 100%.  This year's team is more comfortable with their roles and the coach's philosphy. Just don't want anyone slight the boys from last years team.  Some played through football injuries that cost them in other sports and never made an excuse.  

  3. I personally believe that CPA basketball gets way too much coverage in the Tennessean. Would be nice for them to cover some of the other schools in Middle Tennessee area having good to great seasons. Creek Wood - undefeated season so far with little press outside of Dickson; Brentwood, Cane Ridge, Hillwood, Station Camp, FRA, BGA, BA, JP II, Stewarts Creek, and many other schools, especially in the surrounding counties, deserve some press coverage outside of the game summary and/or box scores.

  4. This incident labels all Memphis teams. You crack me up. Please show me all this illegeal transfering.

     

    I have to support Galilee on this.  I am a Middle, TN native and hate Memphis basketball with a passion, this one incident does not reflect all the good coaches and administrators throughout West TN.  All the facts have not come out at this point, no need to jump to quick conclusions.

  5. I try not to make an excuse for a loss, but I am human.  Comment on officiating was not  me making an excuse for Waverly's loss.  Every team has injuries, personal issues, etc.  adjusting to officiating is part of the game.  The referees/officials have a job to do and I do know how hard of a job it is to make a decision on something that happens in a fraction of a second.  I simply was trying to state they were too visible in the game.  The ideal officiating team would make very consistent calls by all 3 members while not having a stamp on the game itself.  

     

    At this point in the season, CW is the team to beat in AA but a lot a basketball left to be played.  Good luck the rest of the way.

  6. This was a good game, the better team won last night, I hate to say.  Congrats to CW on the win.  I hated the officiating, they made several bad calls/had several missed calls on both teams.  A game of that magnitude, they should have been invisible.    I felt the game was over-officiated at times.  Again CW, congrats.  

     

     

    Same players also so why not the coach

     

    Same players, same outstanding coach, different year and circumstances/situations.  As a Waverly antaganist, you would not respect his body of work the same as a Waverly supporter or another basketball coach.  

  7. The one Freshman played private for a second 8th grade year, they say. Regardless, he's a great bball player, and a great kid with an unbelievable work ethic from what everyone says,

     

    Dotson is a very good player and a very nice young man as most of the kids are in our district.  Thanks for clearing that up for me.

  8. Creek Wood has plenty of fire power. They can shoot the lights out on any given night. They can run and play D. The one kid can jump out of the gym. They are very quick. They pass well in transition and finish. Their deep bench includes a 6'5" redshirt freshman (who the CPA staff is VERY familiar with) that can run the floor, take it to the rack, or knock it down from anywhere outside. They are a very good basketball team. They will have to get back away from the show boating that comes with playing in such a weak district. I think they can play with CPA.

     

    I have always thought you gave a fair and honest assessment of Fairview's opponents and this confirms my opinion of you Jacketman.  I am confused by the redshirt freshman comment though.  I also believe they can play with CPA and would be pulling for them in a rematch.  I do believe that CPA is stronger in the post and coaching though.  

     

    I also am going with Waverly in next week's matchup between CW and the Tigers - what can I say I am a Blue-blooded Tiger fan.  

  9. That wasn't a game...having said that Waverly does seem to be missing some of the intensity from last season..might have just been that we were not worth getting the intensity up for.  I am going to the Creek wood Waverly game next week

     

    Creekwood beat Waverly at their own game. No excuses.   Beagle you seem to hit it on the head with that statement.  They have to get hungry again with the athletes on that team.
