I‘m very biased, but I’ll go ahead and put Reuter at the top of the list.  Bradley Central. 

I would have to say Reuter and McMinn Central’s Johnnie Morgan. are two of the best in the state not just East TN. There resume speaks for itself.

I agree.  GP and central should win their substate games.  Time for the real season to start.  Everyone wants to play their best ball come February.  NG and cland could play 4 times.  We get started with unaka on the 5th.  Gotta avoid any pitfalls along the way and work on improving each week 

I think it will be a cakewalk for Cloudland and NG, region 2 is way down this year. Central is playing at a level that will make them hard to beat. GP is right there behind them, then you have a drop off to Alcoa, Meigs and SG. I think Central and Meigs come out of region 2 and region 1 will be GP and SG. Alcoa is down a little from what they were last year.

That’s impressive! Did CC have everyone? 

Not sure, I just saw the score. 

Wow McMinn Central over Coffee County 69-33 I guess Central was mad about the loss earlier this year to CC.

McMinn County loses their coach, heard Greenback no longer has a boys basketball team over a fight? What is going on with the state of HS basketball in East TN? 

A head coach made a bad decision and a few fans get out of hand, but the other 100 schools in East TN are just fine lol

Does Meigs still have the same clown coach? For their sake I hope not.  Meigs and Central could switch coaches and Morgan would beat her. 

Highly unlikely right now. Central just has way more talent than Meigs does right now and Central would win no matter who is coaching, and as far as the Meigs coach goes, I think she is a great person but she took the job with no head coaching experience so there will be some bumps in the road, but she works hard and pushes the girls to get better, hey we made it to substate last year, maybe we can get back there and pull an upset.

Central won't lose another game this season all the way to Murfreesboro, other than maybe to defending 4A state champ Bradley in Cleveland.  

Was the GP game at Central? The schedule has both games at GP

They definitely won’t lose many!  But that Pittman game will be a big one too.  

Not sure about Central’s holiday schedule, but Bradley and GP are the only two games that will be close. I think they lose at Bradley and I would not be surprised if they lose at GP. A two hour bus drive and play a really good GP team.

NG 55-40.  Looking good for our district brother.  Coalfield lost to jellico tonight.  Sunbright is looking like the best team in r2

I’ve seen a few of these teams and region 2 looks to be way down this year, the only thing I could see hurting you guys in your schedule, maybe they have some good competition in the holiday tournaments coming up.

I definitely didn't mean any disrespect to the west teams or any other teams for that matter.    I saw GC this summer they have a great team again this year.   They will be a tough out come tourney time too.  And I also think the AA tourney will likely be the best of all the classes.  I was just guessing based on what I have seen in the last month.  McMinn probably has the toughest non-district schedule in the state (in any class).     Bradley Central x2, Cookeville, Sevier County, Coffee County, GP x2,   Of course I haven't seen everyones schedule but that is a crazy schedule for a AA school.  I think they will be battle hardened and tough to beat come tourney time.  The AA class is STACKED again this year and anything can happen in the glass house.   Good luck this season!  Its going to be fun watching this one play out.   

I see where Sevier Co beat GP by 20 tonight and Central beat Sevier. Co by 20 a week ago

Agree Refs tried to call it, the Coaches didn't control the players and this is what you get.  I'll bet the refs will lay the law down next week, teams better go there to play football or they'll toss um like flies. Then again, most teams that make it this far are very disciplined.

The coaches have total control. Meigs was accused of playing dirty by a few teams but I believe a lot of that is fans being biased, I believe they just played until the whistle. In the Giles Co game 3 starts got out of control and the coach benched the second half and we were only down 14-7. That tells the rest of the team that it’s not going to be tolerated. I didn’t see the game last night but I listened to the York guy, I believe that York thought they couldn’t play with ER so that was the game plan.

ER don't have the team or the discipline to beat Riverside, They are really good and they are very disciplined.

But when you play a team that plays dirty it can change how the other team plays.

I’m sure I will get blasted for this but I’ve been wondering if York is legit since the Stone game, I know every game is different and I haven’t seen York play but I have seen Stone and for York to only score 14 points against that defense makes me think this could be a one sided game. 

I just had that feeling.

Running clock. I believe GP was the second best team in the east behind Alcoa.

Wasn’t a running clock last year and certainly won’t be this year.

It was one score from it and you played them at home, it will be a running clock 

Running clock. I believe GP was the second best team in the east behind Alcoa.

I have a feeling ER with a running clock, but I could be wrong. And congrats to both teams for making it this far

Any Meigs County fans plan to Watch Giles and Alcoa next week?

Probably not, it didn’t matter what team won because Friday night’s game will be over at halftime. Good luck to you guys

Meigs County plays bully ball. They play that old school smash mouth football and it’s a 50/50 chance they’re still going to knock your head off after the whistle (never got called). That’s how they’ve went 12-0, ran people over and kept playing after the whistle and those teams laid down. I knew from the get go that’s the last thing Meigs needed to try and do against giles. That’s what giles lives for. After a few cheap shots we’re taking on giles they had had enough and on meigs 2 or 3rd drive they drove Meigs QB #7 about 6 rows up in the bleachers it seemed like and the rest was history from there. Meigs laid down when they knew there match had been met. Hard to line up and and play/hit harder than the bobcats week in week out. Very well coached team

Lol. Everyone from Meigs said that we would have to play our best game of the year to win this one, and we were doing just fine until the QB went down in the second quarter, and I knew then it was game over because the offense goes through him. I was impressed with Giles running game, #4 is your best player by a long ways, I thought the Giles passing game was not very good. But the better team won.
