I was afraid no one would know anything . At least I tried. Those were some really good teams back in the early to mid 80's.

 

I remember them.....we played them.This was around mid 80's. Had the red haired pg who could bang from the 3 (shame for him didn't have it then).You know who I am talking about? Doesn't he coach somewhere now????? I moved away from this area for years so I really don't know where anyone went from any school.

I went to school with Anthony Cannon. One of the best players I have ever seen fro the single A ranks. What School are you from DeputyDog. I'm trying to do some research on that particular season. I think Kenton beat Christian Brothers in sub state that year, although I could be wrong. What are your opinios of Cannon, I played many pick up games with and against him I would rate him a 10 and myself a 3 tops and I thought I was a pretty goof ball player but nothing on the level he was. To bad we didn't have AAU back in those days, for the small town kids anyway.

Cool..My cousin went to school at DC. Her name was Tracy Meeks from Trimble TN. OH Man that was a long time ago. But what some good memories they were.

 

She maybe older or younger?? than me. My brother is younger he went too. My sister-in-law went to Trimble, so does my kid....OMG do I have some memories /thumb[1].gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":thumb:" border="0" alt="thumb[1].gif" /> Good chance we know some of the same people.

    • From my understanding, Jay Graham pretty much took over HC responsibilities in that game, so you can thank him. Cute Andy didn’t need help, though. Cute Andy could’ve beaten us without any assistant coaches.
    • Tax payer dollars are paid for certified teachers to "teach" and then coach. The primary job is to teach.  There are some district that ay awesome supplements and others that don't. Dyersburg and Dyer County are pretty close if I remember correctly. I would imagine that Football and basketball are above $10,000 now.  I've heard that Milan is $20,000 for boys basketball. I would imagine that football is more than that in Milan.  Collierville has camps that coaches get paid extra for. 3 camps a year, 100 kids a camp, $30,000 right there.  There are places like Memphis-Shelby County schools where the supplements are garbage even for the head coaches. I made less than $3,000 as the head assistant at Germantown in 2015 when we were 26-4 and one of the best teams in the Southeast. As a head middle school coach next year I will make between $4-5,000 at a municipal in Shelby County.  Coaches should be compensated for the jobs that are required but lets keep in mind that they are educators first.  It's pretty frustrating to other teachers that work their tale off teaching 6-7 classes a day to watch someone roam campus, not teach (or have very minimal responsibilities), and get paid the same (more with supplements) as a person who has the some years of experience or sometimes less. 
    • This will get coaches leaving the profession very quickly if this kid wins this case. This is absurd...
