It should be an interesting and exciting weekend of basketball at the SEAAU 17-U State Basketball Tournament in Memphis. The tournament includes several stellar programs and others who are in growing into state championship contenders.

At first glance, you would have to mention the Midstate Ballerz Elite, Midstate Ballerz Select, YOMCA Team Memphis-Blue, and the TN Thunder (16's). But if you look at the field closely and evaluate the personnel on each team, the only team in my opinion that has a "clear-cut" advantage are the Midstate Ballerz Elite, and they are a very beatable basketball team. I am looking foward to some great competition and watching some of the elite players in the state of Tennessee.

Question: when was the last time a team not from Memphis won the 17:u State??? In the years I've been coaching, Memphis has won State every year...

 

Question II: when was the last time a team not from Memphis won the 16:u State??? I have read where Tennessee Thunder 16:u broke the stranglehold for this age group last weekend...

The highest place a Memphis team got in the 16u state last year was third.

The only top team that didn't participate in the 16:u state was YOMCA. BTW, didn't the Thunder beat the Ballerz 16:u in the 17:u sub-state by 13 or 14 points. Also, the record books will reflect the Thunder victory know matter how you try to spin it. This is a no spin zone, Mr. O'Reilley.

The Top 4 16:u Teams in the State are Ballerz, YOMCA, Travelers, and Team Angels, none of which played in 16:u State. Ballerz were at TOC, Angels took a few of their top 16's with their 17's at TOC. YOMCA and Travelers were at Nike Memorial day...

 

Ballerz 16's would easily beat Thunder 16's on a neutral court. July 2nd is the day for the game, if Thunder doesn't find an excuse not to show...

    • Im asking everyone to keep roy whited and his family in your prayers. Coach whited won back to back state championships at white county in 98-99. He is very well liked and respected in this area. For those of you that dont know he went missing 3 days ago. No one knows where he is. His truck was found in a rural part of the county. Thanks again. We are all very concerned. 
    • West would be a good team to get behind if they can pull it off again like last year. That championship game last year was awesome. 
    • I say that because he stepped out of a MUCH better situation on his own than he would see at least his first 3 years at DCA and it would take at least that much to bring him back to coaching. There are other fish in the sea, but again money talks. Need to fix the girls hoops too. Now I'll try again. Who has Pierce locked in for his staff? Hearing a McGavock man but not the Iceman.
    • I’ve heard mostly good things from the gridiron. Lots of optimism. It sounds like the portal has mostly helped, though there are a few expected defections. Comeback year!
    • Rudesell 1 year at Crockett. Coach Tate 2 weeks a Bradford. South Gibson supposedly going with jcs middle school coach. Which isn’t who I thought would get it, I know the top 2 was between him and Obion girls head coach.
