@ Stock68. This is exactly what I do for a living. Feel free to contact me @ : ShawnJohnston@alumnidirector.com. I am somewhat familiar with your son already but not extremely. I am available anytime for the most part. Thank you and I hope to assist in anyway I can.

Any other offers or commitments across the state rolling in as of late? I specialize in small college basketball, sort of out of the loop at times with the bigger name kids.

Spellcheck is a humorous thing at times.

Interesting news out of Louisiana today as Jeremiah Martin has de-committed from Louisiana Tech. Kept option open but formally de-committed. Opinions?

Stockdale getting offers?

In no way disagreeing, I am only curious as to why rotating the championship site is a factor? Very few states rotate a site and they typically make it as centrally located as possible.

Allow me to play Devils advocate here if you will. I do agree something needs to be done to fix the way Tennessee high school basketball is handled as a whole. But wouldn't that only contribute to the whole "everybody gets a trophy" culture of sports today? By creating even more divides? CPA hasn't won a state championship in 3 years now. No private won a title last season. More often than not, the privates do not win. No private will win this season. Again, I'm not disagreeing, just playing Devils Advocate.

Tennessee doesn't seem to garner overall interest as much as other states. I'll give you that. I always think about a Kentucky comparison when that enters my mind.

I am a complete outsider but Alabama wasn't the best choice of comparison. Mainly because the two states actually aren't even close in population. Alabama is at approximately 4.7 million and Tennessee is at approximately 6.8 million. That is a massive difference.

Your are clearly correct about the numbers and that's why I made sure to immediately make a correction and add Stockdale to that list. But I'm not just basing my observation on numbers a large portion of it is simply a project of a kid at the next level. What kind of offers is Stockdale receiving?

Couldn't go wrong at either place. Differing styles when comparing the two but both very solid choices and mostly underrated for the level of basketball being played at both. Martin defeated MTSU this season in an exhibition.

Both are very good school academically and athletically! Offers from either?

Are either getting offers?

Stockdale is no slouch either.

S. Valentine, M. DeBerry, and K. Henderson are the best unsigned seniors in the tournament I have seen this far. Opinions?
