Are you above or below Mitch Carter on the Blevins totem pole. Don't spend all that stipend in one place. Is it part of Obama's stimulus package? These new jobs will stimulate the economy! /roflol.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":roflol:" border="0" alt="roflol.gif" />

 

 

 

All of my stipend money will be put to the Blevins clothing fund. It will help purchase him a new black leather jacket.

Memphis area teams have 19 out of the last 30 state champions... That's pretty impressive...

 

This is the main reason why, myself included, many people do not see Bearden as winning the state championship... having to beat two Memphis teams in three games will be extremely tough... and if that indeed does happen, then they truely will be the best team in the state... Only time will tell...

By the way, if your counting these to see if you got 19 too... your a loser...

 

 

mtownballer

you left off the Memphis Central team of 1981 that won the AA championship. The only school to win back to back state championships in two different classifications.

 

oops, my bad...you were only listing AAA teams. The AA list would also be impressive as well as A from Memphis.

You know what, Unreal21-- after having seen White Station twice this year (no disrespect to Bearden, or any other team), I will not be shocked to see them actually win the AAA State Title.....IF, if they can make it out of Memphis!

-----------------------------------------------------

 

White Station has essentially has the SAME team as last year's AAA runner-up squad, only more experienced!

 

They are nowhere near as good a team as ANY of those dominant White Station teams, back during the Coach Tippet era. They are not overpowering. Nevertheless, they posess enough key components to actually win a State Championship. Additionally, they are a poised bunch & play EXCELLENT team ball.

Excellent team ball is the key words! I don't care how many super stars u have playing togather wins championships!! Good Luck!! /thumb[1].gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":thumb:" border="0" alt="thumb[1].gif" />

Not only is likey...it is most definite. I have played in 2 state tournaments and have been to watch multiple others. I have seen White Station at the height of their reign as king of AAA. I have seen talented teams from Memphis play talented teams from the east and lose on several occasions. If you are a student of the game think back to the 97-98 season. White County beat what many people felt like was an overwhelmingly talented team in Pearl Cohn. PC had future Univ. of Tenn. stars Ron Slay and Jon Henderson, and a host of other college level athletes. White County had future Tenn. Tech. Univ. guard Brent Jolley and some other "nice" players. White County defeated PC in the semi's and went on to spank White Station in the finals. Not to mention in the sub state game they defeated a Cleveland team that had the #1 high school player in the country and future Univ. of Tenn. player Vincent Yarbrough. My point is that anytime you have a group of well coached, extremely talented, and determined players anything is possible. A team from Memphis is not guaranteed to take the title home. Remember that is why they play the game.

 

The teams out of Memphis are going to be hard to beat! But u just make a great point! Anyone can win on paper thats why they play the game!!! /thumb[1].gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":thumb:" border="0" alt="thumb[1].gif" />

Also, out of the 11 years a Memphis team did not win it... 4 of this years a Memphis team was the runner up...

 

So in AAA a Memphis team has been in the state finals 23 out of the last 30 years... So that's why it's extremely tough to beat two Memphis teams to win it all...

 

The teams were the 81' GW Carver, 88' Mem' Northside, 98' White Station, and 08 White Station...

 

Odds are from looking at the past one Memphis team has a 63% chance of winning the state championship and a 77% chance of making it to the finals...

 

When you get to the state your in AAA your playing against house money... and Memphis is the house...

A lesson my alma mater learned the hard way in the 90's. It indeed rings true, especially in AAA.

One of the best players I have ever seen in High School bball.....Matt Cobble, played for Oakland. Do you remember him?

 

 

I started following Oakland basketball as a kid when Matt Coble was at Oakland. He was a part of the golden era of Oakland Basketball. Had some truly great teams that had the misfortune of running into those great memphis teams.

The fighting in this thread is never gonna end cuz the east tennessee people has watched Bearden play and they know how good they are this year... and west tennessee is being typical west tennessee and they wont get off there high horse... so everybody just needs to wait a few weeks and see whats happening in the boro.

 

personally i do believe Bearden will win it though.

has watched or have watched...

 

I'm sure a few people on these boards have seen both areas play multiple games this year... I would think that someone from Briarcrest would know as much as anyone on who would be the most likely to win it all... but it is always a bias answer when predicting a champion...

    • I will never forget the 1983 Heritage vs Maryville game. I remember driving home and listening to WGAP. Can't remember the announcers name. He asked Coach Story why he kept going for 2? Story told him " Why didn't you ask Renfro that last year"
    • TSSAA will let them all go to Mase.
    • Well nothing new, the Mustangs are really talented again this coming season!  They very well could go undefeated in regular season.  We shall see what happens in postseason.  I think the path to state title game is a little clearer than years past.  I think the Stangs are going to be really good and I think the traditional teams around in 2A are not going to be as strong.  It should be a fun season!
    • I would not put too much stock into the UH over Eagleville. From what I understand they were pretty banged up in that tourney. Catcher was out, they were throwing pretty deep in their bullpen and a few key players were beat up in their infield. Sounds like they are pretty healthy heading into the district tournament. Look at their schedule, they played some really good teams.
