    Monterey and Cookeville did not get to either Championship games in Basketball. Monterey Boys lost in the Semifinals and so did Cookeville’s girls. But on a side note Upperman won a State Championship when Cookeville went and Upperman boys also went to the Semifinals when Monterey did plus The Lady Cavs best players were all related to the Coach. 

    Since u know everything about Putnam County, where does the Lady Cav coach live? and yes her kids if zoned would go to Baxter. Your hate and argument is baseless. Schools are schools play ball.

    Not enough ball to go around for what's at Upperman and all of Cookeville's talent.  Will be interesting to see where all those State Championship middle schoolers end up.

    Putnam County is open zone for all freshman, Monterey is the hidden gem for immediate playin time for some boys and girls. Some may move cross county lines to White and Jackson County. Upperman will probably expand in future and another high school built in Putnam.

    this time of year it comes down to coaching and Livingston Academy has more talented players than Lawrence County and more scoring but the scouting and the coaching catches up at some point and it showed in this region tonight in all four games.  the travel ball that all the Livingston academy players do together in the offseason does help them but I think if Lincoln county and page did not have to play each other in the semifinals they both would advance getting to play overmatched and out coached Upperman and Livingston Academy teams.  

    In a way I agree with this, I will say this if L.A. doesn't beat Upperman,  it's on L.A. coaching. L.A. should know now what they should do defensively and substitute wise. L.A. IS = in talent and has many more soldiers. This game comes down to coaching period.

    Sad way to end for White Co . Got worse as the season went on . Every team learned our weakness . Same bad passes all year . Passes against press same all year . Fundamentaly worst girls team i've seen at White Cc . This team could have been so much better . Sad , hard to watch . 

    I picked White County to win district and against Page, even though I questioned myself each time. I finally realized if you look good length, height in uniform doesn't mean anything.  White players just aren't polished skill wise , we all put them on a pedalstal that we shouldn't have. I don't think they were  underachieving. They finished about where thier talent level was. High school coaches can develop teams, they can't develop talent ,that is up to parents,players, aau,trainers etc.. Dodgen did what he could imo.

    I hope ur right repo. I just dont see white beating page. I think 7aaa will sweep the rest. 

    If White can keep it ugly and get to foul line they got a legit shot.

    Most of this is true, but it’s not like Upperman is beating them by 40, all the games are close and Cumberland can beat them with some adjustments. 


    Cumberland’s style of play doesn’t help either they refuse to slow it down and get a good shot. Shooting a 3 pointer 5 seconds after crossing half court with a lead is not winning basketball.
    It was 16-6 Cumberland with 2 minutes in the 1st and Cumberland had the ball and was shooting 3’s and never slowed down the game. They could have slowed it down and waited for a better shot but they continued to do that and Upperman ran off 6 points in less than 2 minutes and it was basically over from that point on as Cumberland never threatened again. Then the inexcusable happened and they had their best player last night foul out with 5 minutes remaining in the 3rd period. 

    Would venture to say Cchs guards have not scored 20 pts in the 3 meetings. CCHS marquee player hasn't scored 10 pts in 3 meetings. Just think if they could produce then the gap would close and they would win, simple.

    Cumberland continues to play right into Upperman’s hand with too many ill advised shots and the unwillingness to play with some patience. 

     

    This district just got a lot more interesting White or Upperman will host Page now. 

     Cchs guards can't produce.That's the reason,Cchs can't beat Upperman.. outmatched at guards.

    So weird that Cumberland couldn't beat Upperman. Upperman couldn't beat White County. White couldn't beat Cumberland.

    Matchups best I can figure,  Cumberland may be headcase against Upperman cause thier former coach is sitting there. Also Upperman guard speed upsets Cumberlands flow. Upperman struggles against athletic length in White.

    White Co lives and dies by turnovers and forced shots . Make the same mistakes now that they did first game . What do they practice . Lot of talent on this team . Hope they can find their game . One of the old fans said the talent is as good as he has seen in years . Good luck girls .  

    This new district exposes White County weaknesses, in the old district it was a half court district ,no press. A set up offense half court game. This new district with the  old 8 AA is full court pressing fast paced game .it's totally different game. Way I figure if CCHS wins tomorrow night they are district Champs cause they swept #2 Sparta, then #3L.A. #4 Upperman.

    They are very good repoman. They beat coffee co among others this year. They are solid. Not saying white or Livingston couldnt beat them but page would be favored in my eyes. 

    You right, I know Page is good,but hoping the girls and coaches in 7AAA will be seasoned after beating up on each other all year and will pay off come region time.

    saw them play earlier in year and i do not think they have the guards to make a deep run once the tournament starts.  coach there never seems to do much with talent he has from tournament to tournament 

    Looking at Page schedule looks  weak. Just curious the 1 loss was to a very average Lebanon team. I think white county and Livingston is 10 -15 points better than Lebanon and Upperman and Crossville probably equal or close game anyways basing on matchups. Curious what your assessment is?

    I knew the buzzer beater at half with the clock operation error would end up being the difference. Might see a couple more barn burners before it's all done.

    Huge momentum swing as well, the refs should have stepped in and overturned that basket . 

  13. #1. Need to be a D1 talent.

    #2. Need to average 19 plus points a game.

    #3. By end of senior yr.  Need to be over 2000 points, (8th grade don't count toward point total.)

    #4. District Mvp ,region ,all state,all state tourny, McDonald's all American nominee or member all these at some point in your high school career.

    Social media has literally blown it out of control. It is absolutely watered  down now with 4 classes and people are absolutely ridiculous in these nominations.

    It is totally crazy. 

    Another thing coaches schools are absolutely lieing or padding stats.  When you have numerous games under 8 points or less, then you are averaging 17 -18 points a game and you never really get close to it but a couple times . Come on.
