Smallball, I have seen all these kids play. And they are all the real deal. It's hard to make an all-state team, and I realize that, someone will always get left off. However, these are the kids that really made an impact on me. Who in this list would you challenge me on? P.S. I have not seen ever kid in the state play, that would be pretty tough to accomplish for anyone. But I would like to know who you would take off to add?

 

No, I wasn't questioning the guys ON the list. Just sounded like you'd seen a lot of baseball throughout the state and several guys I've seen aren't on your list. No big deal, just wondered if you'd really seen THAT many teams play. Sorry for the confusion.

How can you talk about the best players in the state and not say anything about Cord Dodd from Jackson North Side! He will be drafted somewhere in the top twenty rounds! I'd say he is one of the best!

 

Maybe so, but there are several ppl that post on here that have never even heard of Cord Dodd. Just sayin.

Cord Dodd hit another HR yesterday! He hit a 3-0 curveball! It was a rocket linedrive over the 400 ft centerfield wall! Int. walked next 3 ab's!

So for the district tournament, he has seen a total of 5 strikes and he has 2 Hr's and a double! He also has 5 intentional walks and has been hit once! Has scored 7 runs and has 8 rbi's! IN TWO GAMES!!!

What is Cord's batting average, HR total, RBI, Slug PCT, OBP? I know he is going to Walters State which is a raw school. I am curious to know what is average and power numbers are. No guesstimates

Walters State a raw school?

I have seen Jarreld of Goodpasture hit two home runs in one game this year.

 

I have been watching Overbey at USJ since he was in the 8th grade. Following in my favorite all-time high school baseball player's footsteps at Ole Miss :lol:

 

I have seen Norris at Science Hill a couple of times.

 

Ethan Bennett at Farragut only got one hit against us last year - LOL!! (he's pretty good!)

 

That's a pretty good short list of players I have seen in person.

Well I can tell you he has great numbers but that doesn't really tell you what kind of player he really is! I have seen plenty of guys that had good numbers that weren't worth snot but numbers were good cause of the competition they played or because their mom kept the book! I can also tell you he was first team All-State as a sophmore and a junior, but again that doesn't always mean that the player is a great player because of all the politics and stuff! Here is what I do know, He's good! He's dang good!!! There have been scouts all over him all year! After the game yesterday, he took BP on Brighton's field for some scout that had flown in from Oklahoma and got there late and missed Cord's homerun in the first inning! Which was his only swing cause he got intentionally walked the next 3 times up! Are you saying that you won't believe that he is a good player unless he has a high batting average? Have you seen him play?

I have seen him play and I have personally played with him on a summer ball team. I watched him play against Milan here recently where Northside was defeated 7-4. Good stroke but good numbers tell a lot.

I'm not saying the kid's not good but he actually did nothing spectacular against DCHS during the two season games. To be quite honest, none of the NS team did that great during the regular season games vs DCHS....run ruled both games. But I also know kids....TEAMS improve over the season, but I gotta tell ya...those kids did 100% better at the plate the other day. I wanna know their secret!

 

Good luck to all of those left in district tournament play!

      So much talk about an investigation about student record manipulation and then everything has went silent. Has anyone heard how the investigation is going?

      $750,000 Lawsuit Files Against Warren County School District

      Basically what you're saying is schools can basically bully students around and get away with it because they are protected. I agree to a certain extent but when schools decisions to keep knuckleheads on staff starts costing kids careers and a college education there is a problem. Our school system last week had a teacher supposedly push a kid and the parents went to the law and the teacher is suspended. So I wouldn't say that they can just do what they want without liability. This case don't pass the smell test because the coach had already been fired before and she got fired after a year on the job. Sounds like the student was right in this case on the outside looking in because the coach gets fired after one year. How many coaches get fired after one year?? Not many.

      Problem with DB football goes beyond coaching. Like Waco said. Thr band is the main focus of their community and school. They have the resources to be a championship level team. Guarantee Ballard or Witten could have them nationally relevant at some point but everyone down to peewee would have to buy in and at DB we all know that would never happen.

      I know the RB from OR he’s fast and has good hands. Is good on special teams also. Didn’t want to play defense over to the Ridge.
