OK....so we have the single a championship game at 10 am wed. morning. The TSSAA has always favored it's members in middle and east tn. in all sports.....but I think this is ridiculous. Don't even try to tell me about a "blind draw"..........OK.....if thats the way Mr. Carter wants it.....so be it. I hope whoever wins between HB and Manassas makes these other schools look like the red-headed stepchildren they are this season! Have it your way TSSAA!

Comments please?????

Winner of this game will then play Grace Baptist and Temple...I said in a post earlier this week that those are the 3 teams I'd like to see as a Humboldt fan...Manassas, Grace Baptist, and Temple are the teams that have knocked Humboldt out of the postseason the last 3 years...Now, Humboldt will have to go through all 3 in order to win the state championship...

 

I do think it is a bunch of a crap, but nothing can be done...

Sounds like a mad Humboldt fan to me, if you win STATE you got to win 3 games anyway so quit griping and WIN your games!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I totally agree. Humbolt hasn't lost a game all year and their playing a team that's 25-2 in the FIRST ROUND??? C'mon. I'm from west tn and honestly can say that i HATE humbolt lol. but this is the biggest load of crap next to the BCS system that i've heard of in quite some time.

 

I guess it's too common sense for a number one seed in the state to play the lowest seed in the ship...that'd be just too plain and simple

Only reason I'm upset is because I wasn't going to be able to make it until Thursday meaning I'll miss the Humboldt vs Manassas game unless I pull something off...

 

I would have rather played Manassas in the championship but I do like the fact that we will be playing the last three teams to put us out of the tournament (Manassas in 08', substate...Temple in 07', state semi-final...Grace Baptist in 06', state semi-final)...Humboldt will have all the motivation they will ever need... /popcorneater.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":popcorneater:" border="0" alt="popcorneater.gif" />

If you think this is a load a crap, wait til you see them try to seed this tournament. There is no fair way to seed this tournament. You can't go by records because then schools would play cupcakes. You can't go by the AP rankings because then you are leaving it up to the media who have no clue about teams in other areas and you also bring in the possiblity of them ranking thier team higher than they should be so they can get a good seed.

 

Is the blind draw system we have perfect? By all means no. But is it the best system that we have come up with? Yes.

I have never heard of the top 2 teams in the state having to meet in the first game. Wow! It is what it is though. Hopefully the Vikings will come out on top, but I just don't believe the whole blind draw thing...

So all you Middle and East Tn basketball fans think it's right for the top 2 ranked teams in the state in 1A to play the very first game of the tournament??...

 

If Humboldt or Manassas, either one, get to the championship they cannot say they backed into a state championship game appearance....

 

Same cannot be said for the bottom part of the bracket... /thumb[1].gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":thumb:" border="0" alt="thumb[1].gif" />

    • Danny Wilson is the only one that come's to mind but I don't know where he is at now.
    • I am pro coach all day long but there are some knucklehead hires for sure. 
    • This is a great question. The retirement seemed a little premature. I do not know the coach personally, but I hope he has found what he is looking for. He is a fine Christian man with a lot of principle and morals about him. I wish him nothing but the best. There are some players in the box for the next coach. This is going to be interesting to see how it plays out. 
    • Agree? Your the one defending a dude with your life for getting a DUI. That's the worst thing on here. 
    • Can’t believe no one posted on this and gave this team the recognition they deserve!  AAU team Tennessee went to Iowa and done what no other team had ever done and took down Iowa and the strength by holds in AAU nationals!!! Yes McCallie had a solid group of 8th graders and they showed up but we had an AAU team that wrestled their butt off and we didn’t just place in the top 5 … we won the whole dang thing! Yes the NHSCa’s were happening and that may have hurt but never once had TN ever won the national folkstyle duals national championship!!  It was a team effort and some amazing young kids!!!    We are not a fly over state any more… on a side note : we have any even better team for cadet National's team duals in Utah and have a chance to sweep both duals which would be unprecedented!!! However the funds aren’t there and USA isn’t in th position to help these kids get to utah as was AAU that got us to Iowa! Stay tuned for some oppertunities to help make a statement for Tn!!!
