best player in the state?

[acm1715]

i like elloit williams he is a big time player and he will go major D-1 and do well in collge ball

[beavo5]

Not yet, but I think you played with the Poindexter, Corey Smith teams. You may be one of them.

 

I know who you are tw! You were my health teacher my freshman year of high school!

casey prather has to be thrown in the underclassmen. already being recruited by the likes of georgetown, tenn, and unc and only a sophomore

[warmachine7954]

That kid is a major athlete. He played against Dyer County last year in the region and he was impressive. But he tore it up over the summer between eight grade and high school.

I'm trying to rebuild the Rhea County program. We struggled to score this year, but we havn't worked hard enough to deserve anything but struggling. We will get there though.

With you there I know good things will happen. I am looking for a good head coach to sit under. Do you know any good places to go? My wife and I are willing to move. Coach Hopkins told me he wanted Tony and I to come help him (He said he has been talking to people about a job)

I tend to go with Rivas, scout, hoopscoops, and Andre Whitehead among others....Jackson is a top ten talent in his class and will most likey will be a McDonalds All America. Wait till the summer and the AAU season is over and then see what the rankings look like. Glad someone brought up Prather..he has more physical tools right now that probably anybody in the state and only a sophmore. I don't put Sexton up there with Prather, Jackson , Williams, and McDonald.

[warmachine7954]

Prather is really a freak. He might become the best athlete to play basketball in west TN in the past 25 years or ever. If he gets some good skill work he can be very good.

As far as the Sexton remarks go, I do think Sexton is one of the best underclassmen in the state. He was definitely the best player in class A at the state tournament yesterday. It will be interesting to see where we will end up going to college though. He needs to get a little stronger, but the rest of his game is there. He can defend and he has a quick first step. As far as AA goes, Z Mason played as aggressive as I have ever seen him play and he impressed me last night. Just a shame he did not get as many touches as he should have. Give credit to Dyer County guards for pressuring CPA's guards so they couldn't throw the ball to Mason. Those 2 players were the best that I watched yesterday.

yeah i had to bring him up i was a senior when he was a freshman...the good thing about this kid is he is so willing to learn and isn't cocky at all

I've read up since this started and found Rick Bolus and these top polls I considered it sort of funny how some of the top players in these lists are/were sitting at home for the state tournament! But that doesn't take anything away from their talent!

 

 

 

the best sophomore in the state is emmanuel andrews
