I'll give my rankings for before serious district play starts next month.

 

1. Lipscomb

2. Pearl Cohn

3a. FRA

3b. CPA

Can't really decide between them right now. Gonna have to wait till they play each other January 5th at CPA.

5. MLK

6. Hume Fogg

7. Ezell

Those are pretty good rankings. Lipscomb has to be the favorite right now, especially with that trio of scorers. I haven't seen Pearl-Cohn play yet, but from what I've heard, they could be the most talented team in 9AA. I'd put CPA ahead of FRA right now, considering that FRA has not dominated its competition they way CPA has (and they've played a lot of the same teams thus far). The bottom three are accurate as of now. Let me say this: I think this district is one of, if not the, best in AA.

You say that this is one of the best if not the best in AA.....and it was even better last year. They swept the Region but ran into two Big Time Teams in Liberty Tech and Bolivar.....I don't know about your rankings, because MLK beat CPA real bad and I know CPA didn't have Zeke, but MLK put it on them even though they are a one man team.

When you are missing one of your best players and by far your best big man, it's pretty hard to contend with an athletic team like MLK. And being a one-man team, I can't trust MLK to be a good team above the others. Because if Gerald has a bad game or gets in foul trouble, then they are absolutely screwed.

I agree, CPA is a totally different team w/o 'Z'. He brings so much to the table that the MLK win w/o him is a bit hollow. I watched CPA DESTROY an overwhelmed Goodpasture team the other night. Zeke was the reason. Without him CPA would still probably beat GP, but it would be MUCH more competitive.

 

No one can compete with Liberty or Bolivar, so lets give 9AA it's props without bringing them up.

 

One 9AA team will go to state. Liberty Tech will win, then we can talk about next year.

 

Hume Fogg is good. Mark this down they will ruin someones year come districts.

 

I didn't see FRA this weekend, but I heard they needed a massive attitude adjustment at halftime to win games against a both a poor Goodpasture team and a mediocre DCA team. They need to be tougher and more consistent to compete in 9AA.

 

Even Ezell is getting better.

 

9AA is the best soap opera in Mid-Tenn hoops and deserves some attention to be sure.

 

All that said, I still think Lipscomb wins this district easy.

Both games they needed serious halftime adjustments. Outscored Goodpasture 20-2 in the 3rd quarter to make it a blowout and outscored DCA like 40-21 in the 2nd half to beat them. They are a great 2nd half team, but they definitely need to play better in the 1st half if they want to compete with DL.

Has anyone here seen Pearl Cohn play? I know about Rashad Mason in the post, but I basically have no knowledge of the other players on their team. If someone could give a scouting report on them or something, I would appreciate it.

 

I wouldnt say that they are the most talented team in the district but they are up there. Yes they have Rashad Mason in the post but besides him, they dont have a consistent second leading scorer. The little point guard(JoJo??) does nothing but shoot 3s, and juniors like Wayne Cox and Deaunte Mason have a bit of a mid range game. The thing that kept them in games last year and will keep them in games this year is hustle and rebounds on the offensive end. They crash the boards with the best of teams. They really dont run plays either. They seem to just be out there playing. If u have a decent team with a motion offense and can rebound very good offensively and defensively, this team can be beat with no problem.

i believe rashad may tear off multiple rims this year :thumb: no joke though

 

with the press they use he has a chance. he is on the inbounder on their press and off of rebounds or turnovers he is usually the first down court for easy baskets. he had 3 breakaway dunks against hume fogg with no hume fogg player across half court

      Bearden Bulldogs 2024

      By MissHawking · Posted

      I really don’t get your point. Yes, Bearden lost two superstars, that can’t be glanced over, but if you still look at their roster, they have star talent almost everywhere. I’m sure Jones was expecting to lose players. I mean, it’s been rumored since the days they both stepped into Bearden, but I mean, they still have star talent everywhere, receiver, linebacker, safety, defensive back, running back, not to mention they have two probably top 20 quarterbacks in 6A battling it out every day for the starting position. And knowing Jones, I’m sure there will be another star talent that lands in Bearden this off-season, which, based on hearing rumors, may already be there. I’m not too sure. But Chaz and Brody will definitely hurt, but I really doubt it will affect Bearden as much as you think. Maybe during the postseason going up against teams like Oakland, but I doubt during the regular season.

      Thanks to the people that voted for Clemer for the head coaching job at Greenback.

      The ironic thing is that in 13 or 14 they did the same thing to the baseball team and hired a moron to coach them and the kids refuse to play. nobody came out they changed the coach to a competent baseball coach and within 3 years went to win a  state championship.so things do hold water when it comes to these things.

      Dingleberry needs to educate herself on Clemer’s “resume” and why he has been dismissed at a few previous positions along with his love of milf and cookies before making her final decision on the matter I do believe. He would not coach my son just from the stuff outside of the X’s and O’s. Throw the football inadequacies in the mix and it just adds to the list of reasons also. Just a really bad deal given the list of coaches that applied from across the state and beyond there is no explanation whatsoever other than agendas why he was hired.

      Not looking good Captain,not looking good.We had 0 Srs before all this and had a decent amount of Sophmores and 4 or 5 Jrs.Now I heard we have about 14 kids I have not confirmed that and honestly I don't think I will go any further with it.What the community wants and what the faithful supporters along with players and parents it doesn't matter.The Loudon School board made the decision for us and it has killed our program.Folks can say butt hurt whiners whatever they want to but we are a very proud Community and expect the BEST choices to be made from our Administration and that's just not the case.I was at a Basketball game this winter for my grandkids and ran into a former teammate of mine that I actually coached youth league with for a number of years and he told me they were over 100 applications turned in and they hired the best friend of the School board Member who suggested him.He has even reached out to try to help the guy and he refused so here we are going into the fourth season of bad football.GB since 1985 has not had 3 consecutive bad seasons,now we are facing 4 with no help in sight.How are we supposed to get behind such incompetence?Dingle berry says we sound like Democrats lol.Democrats accept all the crazy and weirdness in this world and just roll with it.Im no Democrat.I'm also tired of fighting for something that our say so holds to water.
