New coach, new system......... someone convince me why I would want to come and watch the Cyclones. Not that I wouldn't anyway, but I would just like some insider information on who is doing what and what is expected from this year's team and this year's new coaching staff. Maybe starting with probably starters as seen by the coach, not mommy and daddy. :D

I've heard Wilson hasn't been too impressed with Norman. But he is 6'5, it will be hard for Wilson not to play him. The other post is still up for grabs. The guards are Nave, Taylor and Callie. The team will probably be a lot better off with the football players there already. I really think this year's team will be a lot better that last years.

You are wrong about what Wilson thinks of Norman.

when norman was at happy valley his freshman year, he was quite a ways down on the depth chart, even with kids in his class. he doesnt have that killer instinct underneath and isnt the most coordinated or athletic big man. then he moves to elizabethton and is a split starter right off the bat. either etown is in need of inside help, or he has really progressed.

Guys and gals, this wasn't meant as a 'slam session'. I was just interested in who will be doing what, besides Derrick Nave. Maybe the 'slams' will help energize some people?

 

 

 

GO CYCLONES!!!!

Prospective starters from what I hear are as follows

Point - Micah is the new kid from SH. He will make a difference

SG - Nave, a pure shooter and scorer. Taylor will play both guards and do well.

Posts - may be a round robin.

If Henson is healthy, he will probably be a starter. He was a hustler on defense but he was injured a lot.

Norman is solid and should start. He is somewhat of an unknown. Transfer and injury have kept him off the floor for two years and he played behind Peters and Jeffers last year. Jeffers is not going to play this year as of two weeks ago. That may change.

The other big man may be Jared Tetrick, Tim Franklin, or one of the 10th graders. If I left anybody out, I didn't mean to offend.

Only Coach Wilson knows who will start and play. He will put a good product on the floor.

I hope the boys do a good job. If you remember last year, they lost a ton of close games.

The talent lost is Harris, Hardin, and Peters. The talent gained from transfer and maturity will be fairly significant, more than they lost. Give 'em a chance and a pat on the back and they make you as proud as peacock, or content as a clean pig in a wollerin' hole, or as happy as a hairy-backed woman with free electrolysis. Oh wait those line are Tim Chambers' job. Go get 'em Cyclones!!!

Thanks.......aside from the Tim Chambers plagurisms (THAT'S A HOOT), this is the first response that makes any sense from what the thread was started for.

:lol:

    • I believe that was last year. I was interested in the Jones vs Baker comment, so I went back and looked at GC. I am not a fan of either nor am I a baseball guru. This looks like to me the duel was not close and if the errors would not have been made Eagleville would have won. I assume you are a little biased. I do think your mph for Jeffcoat and Baker must be from last year.  Baker-85 pitches 67 strikes. 5.2 innings, 5H, 1BB, 0ER and 7K's. 3 errors  Jones- 78 pitches 37 strikes. 4 innings, 2H, 5BB, 0ER and 1K. 1 error   Adams and the UH kid are really good as well. What about South Pitt and Oakdale? I heard they have some good ones. 
    • I hate this for all the kids in the program and fans alike. I can't recall of anything like this before in my lifetime but I'm sure it isn't a first. After criminal investigations are complete and the TSSAA looks into this the program it will be facing Nuclear Winter for some time to come. It's always the innocent left behind that end up paying the price for something someone else has done. I'm sure the transfer portal will be very active in Clinton over the summer months. How could you find a good coach worth his salt that would take on a situation like this not knowing what will happen. 
    • I’ve seen Jeffcoat in person twice and he was 84-87 both times and the one time I saw Baker he was low 80’s, he actually got out dueled by Jones from ER in that outing.
