You are speaking my kind of language now. Have you heard what Liberty did this summer to the competition. They beat White Station by 30 count em 30 points and destroted their competition. They only lost one game to Union City and Brandon Evans or Jewuan Long weren't there. I can't wait for the Liberty and Bolivar match-ups this year. Did Bolivar get any transfers this year? Liberty got Bijon Jones from Chester Co./Lighthouse Christian and Brandon Ware who just moved back from Memphis.

I think just about everyone beats White Station in summer league...I know Riverdale did last year as well as a few other teams that you wouldnt expect to beat them.

I have been around Humboldt basketball team some this fall and alot this summer cause one of my buddies is a coach over there and them dropping to 1A is gonna be tough on teams who only graduate 15 a year. Humboldt went to the Final 8 of State in AA last year and beat Liberty 2 out of 3 times. They also got a 6'6 transfer suiting up for them this yr.

 

Humboldt is playin defending state champs Middleton in a Hall of Fame game this yr I do believe. So we will get an early idea. :thumb:

hey tha kids from lake county graduate bout 40 a year but what does that have to do with ball playin? they beat tha trenton team with doaks and partee 3 times two 6'8" twin towers so what will one 6'6" kid do to them. plus they return all 5 starters and their bench. even union city will beat humboldt

you can just about bank on seeing Bolivar and Liberty there in AA along with the winner of another classic Haywood/Mitchell matchup in substate...its a shame that both teams cant go to state, both of them have the talent to win it all but only 1 will make it.

 

those are my preseason top 4 in AA....

1. Bolivar-2 straight titles with a 3rd on the way

2. Mitchell

3. Haywood

4. Liberty

 

Hamilton will be there in AAA....they are my pick to win state this year.

 

Union City, Middleton, and Lake County may very well be the 3 best class A teams in the state. i like Middleton to win it all again this year....defending champs and they are the best until someone proves otherwise.

 

I'm from Lake Co and I agree with you about Lake Co,Union City,and Middleton..But we played Middle College about 4 times last year and they have most of their players back and they will definitely be in the mix...And probably Humbolt..I saw them play Trentom last year in the Christmas tournament and they were really good also..They may have lost a few players off that team but I'm not sure so I don't really know about them..Halls has three starters back and a great shooter and playmaker in Strayhorn and Richmond...But,I will agree..based on what I do know..that Union City,Lake Co,Middle College and Middleton will be among the best in the State..

    • You didn't spell Greeneville and Elizabethton correctly in your sentence.  4A has the best teams in Upper East TN.  Carter County All-Stars and Greene County All-Stars is the Superbowl now.
    • Yeah, but if he goes to Science Hill they are guaranteed at least a win over Kingsport and that's basically the NET Superbowl
    • I expect Sevier County might be pretty good, perhaps Mo West as well.     But I don't see either of them getting out of round 2.          The rest of the region gets smoked in round 1.            Except for those once-in-a-blue-moon anomaly years the NET big schools are pretty much the same every season.
    • Wanted to see if all of you would lift up Kyle James family in prayer. Kyle was one of the best wrestlers to ever come out of Soddy Daisy and as some of you know he lost his house a few weeks ago and now his family and friends mourns his passing. Not sure if any of you were around in early 2000’s when Kyle was wrestling at Soddy, but he was a 3 time state champ and a Fargo AA along with going to Colorado to train to make the Olympic team. That goal was never reached due to medical issues, but he was an amazing wrestler and his family is as good as gold. If you were around at that time and have any pictures of Kyle, please go onto Alexy Winesburgh FB page and post. Thanks, Doug Benton
    • My opinion the 8 teams will be-  Greenback, Wartburg, Gordonsville, Jo Byrns, Eagleville, Bruceton, Dresden, and South Fulton. Gordonsviile is probably the favorite but I wont say it will be an easy road. With the right draw any of the 8 could win it.
