    Dresden

    Gleason

    Greenfield

    South Fulton

    Union City

    Lake Co.

     

    14A is:

    Gibson County

    Halls

    Humboldt

    Middleton

    TCA

    Madison Academic Magnet

    Trenton

     

    Can someone shed some light on this?

  11. W.E.B.Dubois in Memphis

    Dubois is a Charter School.

     

     

    If he is the AAU coach he isn't supposed to coach any of his kids that play for him or any 8th graders that will play for him.

     

    That is a major violation.

     

    Word is the TSSAA is really putting a case together against East for all the ties to Team Penny and East.

    If that is the case with East I wonder if that could affect past Championships if found that they're in violation.

    Ok so they transferred in an sat out last year?  I'm good with that then!  So why W.E.B?  What made them all choose this school?  I'm truly asking a legitimate question here so please don't take this as anything but that.  Is this a new school? Better teaching? Coaching?

    Not sure how true it is but I heard that the kids who are there now all play for the same AAU team which is coached by W.E.B's coach. So they have been playing together for years. Probably why they chose WEB. Like I said, that's just what I was told. However they did it, I went and checked them out and they're the real deal foreal. I was also told by a coach in Memphis that WEB had a scrimmage against East at the early part of the season and lost by 1. I would have loved to see that.

    I still think Humboldt will have a real battle beating UC! Combine that with having to play Mitchell, W.E.B, Grad Academy or Middleton, it's way to early to be talking about Murfreesboro!

    Exactly...

    If humboldt can win region championship and get substate at home. See u in Mboro

    Humbolt is good but I still wouldn't count out Memphis even if substate is in Humbolt cause that would mean either Mitchell, W.E.B. Dubois or Grad Academy would be the opponent. I've personally watched Dubois play a couple of times this year and I promise you they are nothing nice. All of their starters has had a 40 point night and they're averaging 119 points per game in their district in which they are still behind Mitchell and Grad. So it won't be an easy trip to the boro.

  15. Who are the contenders in each class?

    I beg to differ about UC and Halls being the top two teams in 14A. Humboldt is the team to beat in 14A this year. They are a much better shooting team and they can defend.

     

    I made that post before the season started. Humbolt is definitely the best team in 14A. The guys we have now just don't have the work ethic of the 2 guys we lost. Those 2 were everything. I'm happy for the kids at Humbolt. They play hard and deserve to be where they are right now...

    Humboldt Vikings are going to be special they have scrimmaged, Obion County, Westview, & won by twenty (20) plus & beat south side in Jamboree & won by eleven (11)! I watched them play Covington tonight & all I can say is this team plays defense & is unselfish! If, teams think they are just going to play a zone against Humboldt well all I can say is they have a inside & outside game was up by thirty (30) on Covington! If, they stay healthy they can have a good year & they have size!!!

    Humbolt I believe will have the same kind of season we had here in Halls last season. Still we had better scorers last year than Humbolt has this year but defense is what wins games and that's why I think Humbolt will go all the way. AND FYI, don't think that we're just gonna lay down for y'all just because we lost a couple of key players lol. We still have 3 of the big 5 returning plus a couple good defenders off the bench to fill those spots we lost lol. That test will be next Friday at our place ( Halls vs Humbolt)... That will be a great atmosphere I can't wait... But I definitely like what y'all are doing this season.

    I forgot to mention them. They will be very good, even without the guards

    Awwww man how you gone forget to mention the only Single A team in west tn with an undefeated season and 2 overall losses for the year Lol... No but we lost a lot in King and Rogers, but all five starters averaged double digits in scoring and we return 3 of the 5. The 2 guys who are replacing them won't replace the scoring but they are twice as better defenders. We still have one of the guards as well as our Big man who pretty much does what he wants and will average 30 this season. Also Lewis who would give you 10-20 points, 10 rebounds, and 3+ steals a game. So when it comes to scoring, Halls and UC are still the top 2 teams in 14A. Humbolt has to develop some shooters cause that's what hurt them last season. Nobody shot the ball which made their every move predictable. So you can't just give them the number 1 spot. They have to earn that. So 1, 2, and 3 will be a battle trust and believe.

    I don't know how I forgot to mention this kid. He's the real deal. Gave us(Halls) 40 points and there was absolutely nothing we could do to stop him. He was like a Troy Polamalu on defense, he was everywhere. We still beat them by 20 but if he had just a little bit of help it would've been a quiet trip home for us.

    Who are some of the players to keep a eye on this upcoming year in this area? Not Memphis but the West Tennessee area.

    Myron McKinney (Halls)... Gave BTW all they could handle at sectionals with 36 points.

    Cordell Persons (Halls)

    Parker Stewart (Union City)

    DJ Jackson (Fayette Ware)

    Famous "BJ" Jones (Ripley)

    Dedric Boyd (Haywood)

    Tristan Jarrett (Haywood)

    I'm 99% sure you will hear about these guys the entire season...

  21. 1A basketball. The gap is closing.

    in Boys Basketball

    Posted · Edited by MrOct1031

    Mitchell did win its third consecutive state title but a few teams have closed the gap. Outside of Goodpasture  in 2014 we mainly coasted to the titles. This year was totally different. Without a doubt BTW, Middleton, Union City, Halls, and Hampton were the top teams in 1A. The only team we did not play was Halls and from the BTW game I saw on film they could compete. Our margin of victory was way down this season. Who is returning from those teams next season?

    Here at Halls out of a 7 man rotation we return 5. Three of them starters...

  24. A Sectionals

    in Boys Basketball

    Posted

    I highly doubt Halls loses at home.

    It will be very tough beating us at home. We are an offensive team and have been all year. BTW has very good guards but trust me they will have their hands full guarding Tavon King who is just as fast with mad ball handling skills and Cordell person who is very crafty with the ball. His floor vision and IQ is what makes him so unique. From what I saw, our big man will have a field day on the inside. I honestly don't even have an opinion on who will win cause both are very good.
