Savage right per the usual Fulton was the only solid AAA team. what a joke of a championship game smh

Hampton 4.5 hours away and half the size brought more fans than MLK 34 minutes down the road. What is your point?

Yes, in my opinion, that’s how it should be. One state champion, one winner, not 6. Just look at the photos at Rupp. 20k people there. Gym packed with energy. Lyon County under 300 enrollment in the final 8. That’s what makes high school sports fun. Glass house you could hear a sneeze from the other side of the gym. Attendance down. No casual fans at mtsu. No fire. It sucks. Boring, snooze fest.

This is a message board where people give their opinions on what their eyes see… Not a single person on here has blasted a player directly. “They can’t help it that the talent isn’t what is used to be” who is “they” ? The players?

All this shouldn’t even be a conversation if TSSAA did things the right way. Look at the KY state tournament going on right now… a packed Rupp arena. Schools with 300 enrollment playing teams with 2000 enrollment. The way it should be.

Hard to say. I was taught how not to drag my pivot foot after picking up my dribble in kindergarten.(thanks dad) Chester Co. did it 9 times. It’s a real shame in our second largest classification that we have teams this bad. Oh well. The show goes on.

Based on their showings today it'll be a 20 point Haywood win. #Savage

I think Honky mixed up his words. WC best team in KY. CA top 25 team in TN and also hard to beat a good team 3x. Goodpasture beat Independence by 17 and Hillsboro in 2OT (after playing poorly). I believe he meant to say that they play inferior opponents most of the time and the games they play where talent level is equal they are .500 ... 4A is weak ... Memphis O vs Memphis E for the gold ball #Savage

Credit Ridgeway for the comeback. Super quick with good defensive energy. However, to barely win that after turning over CC 33 times in 32 minutes speaks volumes as to the lack of basketball skill. Hopefully, Haywood can give the viewers a "breath of fresh air" because that last game was miserable to watch. #Savage

I'm not into bashing high school athletes, but outside of Fulton (AAA so far) the teams have been embarrassing. White County was weak. This Ridgeway team has less skill than a lot of 6th grade teams. Chester County is not good. Volunteer was average at best. MLK, athletic but not skilled... Am I missing something?

Should’ve lost to Goodpasture in 2014. GP had more talent imo. They didn’t win a state title which still blows my mind, but 93-94 Goodpasture team had the most talent of any 1A team ever.

Goodpasture is a great team. Coach Sonn is a fantastic coach and has full control of his team. I believe they will win 3 or more state titles over the next 5 years. They have the best sophomore in the state along with an ELITE 7th grader. Coach Keary (NYBA) deserves the credit for their recruiting success. #Savage

War wouldn't have prepared the Indians for this assault. JNS doesn't belong on the floor with them. Where is the white flag??? HOLY SMOKES, RUN THE CLOCK Greeneville 41 JNS 13 at Halftime Hope Greeneville has some KY Jelly they can take to the indians locker room before the start of 3rd quarter. #SavageSpeaks

I agree. I believe Bartlett is a longer, faster, more skilled version of Beech. Like i said in previous post, I think Beech will run up and down the floor with them which will make it a long day for boys from Hendersonville.

West Carroll. - They have the best player on the court in Anglin. WC by a small margin. MAHS. - I believe this game will get ugly. I have been wrong before before, but this MAHS team has next level next level bunnies and are relentless until they score. They will pressure the ball unlike anything East has ever faced. The pace of this game of this game will be very interesting. Only gets ugly if full on track meet imo. Clay Co. - Clay is just going to be a little better in this game. Good performance from Strong and Clay wins by about 10. McKenzie. - Yes, I know, Peabody is the favorite and by most accounts should win... But their team is up in the air at the moment and the coach doesn't have any control the that team. Meanwhile, McKenzie is playing solid team basketball and I believe pulls the upset and gets the dub. #SavageSpeaks

If last night was your first time seeing the Ravens, you didn't get to see them kick it into gear. I felt like they were just playing a game down at the YMCA, had it in cruise control from the tip.

Dobyns-Bennett. - Coffee Co. gets a fairly good draw in game one and will fight hard until the buzzer sounds. They simply won't have enough against DB, as they (DB) win by somewhere in the neighborhood of 20 points. Bartlett- Beech has had a tremendous season and will give Bartlett a good run up and down the floor, and yes, this should be a track meet. Knox and company get it done in a high scoring thriller. Game total around 145 for this game. Cane Ridge- This may be the Ravens toughest test. Bearden is well coached and will have a scheme for Brandon Miller and the Ravens offense. They should take one out of Walker Valley's playbook last night and play a box and 1, sag the box, and force the other 4 to shoot threes. However, all that and more wouldn't stop Brandon Miller from leading his team to the semi-finals. NBA caliber three level scorer. Clarksville- This will be the most interesting game of the day in AAAA. I fear Lebanon falls into a 3 point shooting contest that results in an L for them. They (Lebanon) must be relentless attacking the rim and crash the offensive glass to advance to the semis. #SavageSpeaks

Let's hear who and why? Coffee Co. vs Dobyns-Bennett Bartlett vs Beech Bearden vs Cane Ridge Lebanon vs Clarksville

Let's hear who and why? Greeneville vs Jackson Northside Stone Memorial vs Bolton Jackson Southside vs Clinton Fulton vs Fayette-Ware

Let's hear who and why? Summertown vs East Nashville Power Center vs Brainerd Bolivar vs Tyner York vs Milan

Let's hear who and why? Hampton vs West Carroll MAHS vs East Robertson North Greene vs Clay Co. McKenzie vs Peabody

SS and NS will both most likely be in Murfreesboro. Region 5AAA is so weak. Not one team from that region would win Single A state. He didn't back paddle, he was just unaware of where SS was headed. However, Greeneville is 15 points better than both SS and NS.

Did you know that hand check is a foul?

What a shocker!!! Savage Speaks again... Nail biter with Lebanon winning, all led by 4 star Jarred Hall Congrats to Blue Devils

Yeah Yeah Yeah. The Savage will be here to bring all the heat throughout the rest of the season.
