The ballot is now in my hands. Positive feedback is needed as to who you think the nominees should be. Negative comments will not help:

 

The Mr. and Miss Basketball Awards presented by Farm Bureau Insurance of Tennessee will be presented to the top girls and boys in five classifications of the Tennessee Secondary School Athletic Association at the state basketball championships in March.

 

This group is to include three finalists for Miss Basketball and three for Mr. Basketball in each classification. The winners of the coveted award are to receive the distinguished Mr. and Miss Basketball trophy with the other finalists being presented plaques.

 

The awards will be presented for each classification prior to the championship game awards presentation for each class, respectively. The presentation of the Mr. and Miss Basketball Awards for Division II will be given on Saturday, March 6 at Allen Arena on the campus of Lipscomb University in Nashville.

 

The presentation of the Miss Basketball Awards for Division I, Classes A, AA, and AAA will be given during each championship awards ceremony for each class on Saturday, March 13 at the Murphy Center on the campus of Middle Tennessee State University in Murfreesboro.

 

The presentation of the Mr. Basketball Awards for Division I, Classes A, AA, and AAA will be given during each championship awards ceremony for each class on Saturday, March 20 at the Murphy Center on the campus of Middle Tennessee State University.

 

Any player at any of our member schools is eligible to receive votes, and I would encourage you to take a moment and give careful consideration to any player with whom you are familiar and who you think deserving of the Mr. or Miss Basketball Award.

 

These votes are a nominating process only. A selection committee that will include representatives from each area of the state will meet to vote on the finalists and winner of the Mr. and Miss Basketball Award for each classification. You may submit the names of up to three players in each classification for the awards. It is not necessary to vote for three players in each category, but that is your option. And, please, consider the statewide aspect of this voting process.

 

In order for your ballot to be counted in the selection process, it must be received in our office via mail or fax (615-889-0544) no later than noon on FEBRUARY 8. Please respond today.

Senior Taylor Hall at Morristown West High School deserves a nomination. She was one of three finalists last year for the award, and has not showed any signs of slowing down this year. She leads the AP #1 team in AAA in scoring (20 pts), rebounds (10) and steals. She recorded the first quadruple-double in school history this season (15 pts, 10 reb, 10 stl, 11 ast). In 20 starts, she has a double-double in all but three games (and those were ones where her playing time and scoring were cut short by blowouts).

 

Other accomplishments:

* 2008-2009 season - All-State honors; District II, AAA Player of the Year; District II Tournament MVP; First-Team All-District II and All-Region I honors.

* She averaged 20 points and 11 rebounds per contest last season.

* Taylor has signed to play basketball for the UT-Chattanooga Lady Mocs.

Without this process going much further, and while it maybe happened one other year to my knowledge,

to see CoachT coming on this site with a ballot and asking for the fans and posters to have an input on the players who should be considered Miss Basketball 09/10 is rather overwhelming. It is good to know the value someone thinks of him and his site. It is good to see those who are nominating are those who know and/or have seen those players play and some things about them. Coaches, news organizations, and fans are who I have seen nominate players.

Jordyn Luffman because she doesn't just score points she can play any position on the floor and has an iq for the game like no one else. She is very unselfish with the ball and could care less who scores as long as the team wins. She scores when she has to and can turn a game around just like that. This year she is putting the games in the younger girls hands to get them the experience they need to progress. She is an outstanding young woman and very considerate,well deserving of this award.

    • They’ve both gotten worse. I’ve seen enough games to know that. 
    • The only two transfers that Bearden has gotten that went on to play college football were a defensive back from Karnes, who transferred here way before the new coaching staff got here, and a running back from Carter, who went on to play at Maryville College. Both players received those offers while at Bearden, and both players got a diploma from Bearden High School. Therefore, they are Bearden kids, and you can’t do anything about that.   The transfer from Seymour didn’t win the job, what do you expect two quarterbacks to start at the same time? He played great on JV when he could stay healthy, and when he came in on varsity, he did great. The quarterback position is definitely going to be in good hands when the current starting quarterback leaves, but until then, they’re just going to be battling it out like every good quarterback competition does. The current starting quarterback has his flaws, and that is in the pass game, but what he doesn’t have flaws is running and scrambling, and if you go back and watch any game, which I’m sure you didn’t watch any, we used him very often, and when we needed a deep ball, we brought in the transfer from Seymour. The starting quarterback last year will be a senior this year, and the Seymour transfer will be a junior, so the Seymour transfer is definitely going to get his spotlight. He may even win the job this year. Football isn’t about who the newspaper thinks is the best kid. The best kid in the position will win the starting job, and I trust the coaching staff more than a newspaper or article to pick my starting QB.
    • I mean, we’ve only gotten two transfers that went on to play college football, one who went to UT Martin came his second semester junior year before the new coaching staff was here, and the other one went on to play at Maryville College, in which I don’t believe he had any interest prior to transferring.
    • An FYI: To see how an opponent has done against another opponent since 2001- go to the game by clicking on one of the teams. Click the G beside the game. For example, Milan: The info will show you the previous matchups and other info.
    • All these college signees went yo other schools for 3 years, were getting college offers then transferred to Bearden. It’s not like this staff did much to develop them.    The BBall coaches son and the Seymour transfer were some of the most talented QBs in the region, and you guys developed them into QBs who might complete one pass a game.
