Congratulations to Greeneville. As far as I am concerned Wiggins definitely has the edge over Wattad, although both are very talented athletes. Congratulations to the Falcons on a good season. You guys went further than expected.

Glad to see you made it safe. Your boys were exciting to watch.If Cradic had kept his hot hand we would have been in trouble.

Very good analogy Snowman. With no dominant inside man like Wiggins, he was just too much for us to handle. Tremaine was good but fouled out in the fourth quarter after the game was over. It was 26-26 after the first quarter. We only scored 27 points the rest of the way. When you go through scoring droughts like we did, it will make it tough to win at this level of competition. Congrats to Greeneville. Congrats to the Seniors on the Falcons for one heck of a season. You seniors will be missed. You've set a new standard at Volunteer, one that has been missing since the Butch Patterson, Jimbo, Soup Bean, and the gang of the mid 80's. I'm proud of you for the effort put forth during your careers. Tuesday should be a dandy @ South!!!! My alma school is DB and I think they will be hard to handle if Cody can contain Wiggins. Will be a great match-up. GOD Bless and good luck to the rest of the teams left in East TN.

That's funny that you mention Butch Patterson, because I think he is the Parks and Recreation Director in Greeneville. How good of an athlete was he? When did he graduate?

Butch & I graduated in 87. He was tough to defend anywhere on the floor. He was their undisputed leader for four years. Everything ran through him. This time of year makes people that played the game for the love of it reflect on their past times. There are many friends that I have made. One quote that I have come to love in the game is that "basketball will never give up on you, never let you down, or force you to play." High school kids play this game because they love it. I believe that this year's Falcon team was one of my most cherished years. These kids never caused any trouble, were very respectful, and played hard all the time. We were picked 8th and made to the Regionals in AAA for the first time ever. We've had 20 win seasons in four of the five years that I've been with the Falcons. I have been extremely blessed to know these fine young men and been a part of an awesome coaching staff. The locker room was a sure tear-jerker, and it showed that men can shed some tears and still be men. Again, Congrats to everyone that is left!!!! I know whoever makes it out of the area will represent us well. GOD Bless!!!!!!!

    • Actually that young kid was in an offense that loved to throw the ball I believe.    Biggest problem for MC is if the coaching staff can figure out which mouths to feed at the appropriate time. 
    • Have you ever been in education (administration) or a head coach? You’re responsible for all aspects of your program. If you were not checking the kids information correctly and left it up to someone else and they mess up. You’re held liable because it’s a failure on supervision, implementation of TSSAA eligibility and your school’s eligibility. Remember the wording in the article for him “CONTRACT NOT RENEWED” coaches are on a year to year contract and don’t sign the contract again until July. Do I believe he still should’ve been let go? Yes because you’re responsible for the total program and should be aware of everything going on. Do I believe he knew about the grade changes? No and that’s because nobody brought his name up until things got really bad and there is no indication with any paperwork showing he did. It’s just word of mouth from a teacher trying to cover herself.
    • TSSAA won't ever issue a death penalty, worst case scenario would be a post-season penalty that makes Clinton ineligible for the playoffs for a year or two (I believe 3 years is the most I have ever seen).  But TSSAA only does that in extremely rare circumstances.
    • I just want to echo that sentiment. Coach Woodmore is a good man and he is going to do things the right way and expect these kids to do things the right way. He will help grow them into fine young men. The wins will follow. I think Bolivar hit a home run.
