What made the difference for Maryville this year was two big transfers Douglas and Basile.Take them out and Maryville was a different team. Put them on any other team in the district and they go to state. Same thing with Bradley Central and Oglesby and Dodd transferring. We are not talking just little transfers either. We are talking D1 players and don't tell me that doesn't make a difference. Take Burnette and Douglas off the football team and what would you have next year? Maryville will be strong for another year in football and maybe basketball (losing Maples & Basile won't be good)but after that they better be looking for some other transfers.

WB is the team to beat in 4AAA just wait and see who wins the district. SD does not have the hitting with Cody out

Puleo at William Blount

WB wins this one with better pitching. Low scoring game WB by 2

Here are some stats for the game Clarksville Cladwell shot 31 times including 6 threes attempts for only 26 points and all other players on the team only shot 41 times. Not exactly spreading it out. Maryville Damron shot 31 times , Maples shot 11 times, Basile 12 times, Douglas 10 times with 17 points, Lambert 15 times and Click only 3 times with one big one for sure. Total shots taken by the team 47. Maples, Basile and Douglas combined shot only 33 times. For some reason Maryville stopped getting the ball to Douglas in the last quarter and OT? The big guy is a player. Wonder how many points he would have had if he shot it 31 times? By my calculations it should have been 51 or more. Also you don't shoot threes with under a minute and a 5 point lead. Either kill the clock, look for an easy layup or get it to the big man for the high percentage shot. Play that way against WB, Farragut or Bearden next year and they will kill you.

Hands down 4AAA. WB will rise to the top this year behind SD and Farragut

Lets hope refs are not influenced by coaches or fans working them or paying them (don't laugh

Self promotion won't win Mr Basketball but shake and bake is good on "pork chops" It is obvious who you are

Oh BosemanWBFan, you are such a riot. Right Powell and Conners will make mincemeat of Maryville. I hear Bearden had Maryville by 15 at the half and then fell apart. Powell won't fall apart. I hear they destroyed Karns who I think is much better than Maryville. Looks like Maryville will be traveling up North so get your bags packed boys. Your not as good as some people think you are /laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":lol:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" /> And wait til you face one of the big boys DB or SH. It won't be pretty and this aint football.

Like I said Farraguts fans are the most out of control followed closely behind by Bearden. Must have something to do with being rich and from WestKnoxville

Good advise for the trash talking Farragut fans who accused a WB player of purposely trying to take Kinney out. Now you want to keep it about basketball? Bearden as I said will beat Maryville easily on the court tonight. But they won't do it by trash talking like Farragut. You both accuse our fans of being out of control but you are some of the biggest trash talkers I have seen. I may go tonight just to hear Bearden and Farraguts trashtalking fans and to see Maryville get sent packing /blink.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":blink:" border="0" alt="blink.gif" /> Karns will beat Powell without any trash talking just some good solid "blue chip" BBall. Karns fans are a class act even when they beat us.

Yep I am afraid Maryvilles season will be over Saturday and WB just starting after Saturday night. Oak Ridge is the most dangerous team in the region. WB should handle Karns as the regions flip flopped.

The refs as a rule have been bad this year. They need to remain neutral. As far as the parent fan and Basile goes that is a sign of his ability and he should take it as a compliment. But adults need to act like adults. Puleo was a target all year because she played with emotion and more importantly they could not stop her on the court. The best players will always draw attention from somewhere....fans , coaches and other players....... I predict WB will beat Karns and play for the championship of the regions. Mark it down.....

WB plays with Baumanns personality...hard nosed and in your face bball. That is the good side of things.They are just so competitive. You are right though about the undercutting..it has no place on the BBcourt.

What game were you watching? WB got few calls and Farraguts coach was talking to the refs the whole game. Watch tonight when Maryville gets more of the same. It wont be even as close as the WB/F game. But really tonight doesn't matter as much as Monday night did. I look for WB to go the farthest in the region behind Farragut who will go to sub state.

I think Coach Baumann is the best at working the refs. Number 2 is Farraguts coach and number 3 is Blevins from Bearden. Watch one of their games and those guys never sit down. They are constantly talking and most of the time telling the refs what and how to call the game. Baumann outclassed Farraguts coach at home last week in the head to head competition. I would love to hear a mic of the whole game on any of those guys. Other coaches could learn alot by listening to any of those guys working the refs. Moral of the story is you snooze you lose.

Predict William Blount and not Farragut makes it to the sub state. Mark it down

Sounds like you guys like yourself an awful lot. I couldn't write that stuff about myself but I can write about another player who is "blue collar". He may not play AAU or the SPCA and DBA and the BSBA and he may not receive the same hype from himself. My nominie is Drew Houser

How does Wiggins compare to Omar? Any D1 offers? Rumor had it Duncan applied for the Maryville position last year. Wonder why if that is true they didn't jump on him? Go thing for the other 4AAA teams that they didn't

Respect is a two way street. Some coaches earn it and deserve it and others don't. Coaches that humiliate their players are poor examples. One school recently had a coach removed for foul language directed at a player. How many more should be removed for their psychological attacks as mentioned above? In most cases it won't happen because the AD's are manipulated by the same people that control the coaches.

Hands down Micah is one of the best freshman in the state. Should be a player to contend with for the next four years.

Maryville is not that good this year and they won't have much until football is over. As usual it will take them over half the season to gel, Farragut should be tough and don't count out William Blount.

Wonder what everyone thinks. Great matchup..........
