There are a number of B.A. supporters on here, and I'd like to actually learn a lot more about the B.A. team this year. Could someone help me out with some more names (with heights), possible starting lineup, etc......

 

I know BA was solid last year, has a great coach, and lost almost nobody. Plus, the best Freshman in middle Tn, Brandon Wright is now at school. I know Jr G Scotty Reall, but haven't seen him in a while: is he going to be a big piece this year? Also, there is a 6'7 Sr Post, but I can't remember his name. I know Chris Slay is also a Frosh.....

 

So can someone help me out with some more details........... :D

Judging from last year, they should look pretty good. I saw King Dunlap over the weekend and he looks about 6'9. He's one big fella. Reall should step it up this year as far as scoring goes. There other guard will step it up as well. They still go real deep into their bench. Dunlap has all the tools, its just up to him to make this a great year for BA. That's all I can help you out with.

Be happy to. The returning players from last year (with current class and size) are:

 

Kyle Willis Jr. - 6'1" wing

David Holbert Jr.- 6'2" wing

Hunter Mize - Jr. 6'1" point

Darren Mustin - Sr. 6'2" wing

Pete Compton - Sr.6'6" post

King Dunlap - Sr. 6'8" post

Barry Turner - So. 6'3" post/wing

Mason Revellete - So. 5'8" point

Brian Ralls - So. 6'4" post/wing

Scottie Reall - Jr. 6'1" wing

Tyler Griffin - So. 6'0" wing

 

Compton, Reall, Mize, Holbert and Willis were the "starters" last year. Top newcomers this year will be the aforementioned Brandon, and Chris Slay, a 6"0" sophomore wing player (Ron's little bro).

 

I have heard that Compton may not play this season, due to a nagging shoulder injury. He loves baseball, is a good pitcher, and does not want to jeopardize that. He is also a long snapper that is getting college interest. We'll see. I've also heard that Mize may not play. Again, we'll see.

 

BA has a lot of good athletes they can run in and out, and they are much physically stronger than last year. The tale will be told for this team at the point guard position. It was not a strength last year, and nobody has really stepped up yet. Holbert and Reall need to step up their scoring, as BA struggled to get points out of the set offense last season. Turner has gotten stronger, and was looking very good at the end of last season. In addition, Brandon will need to put on some muscle fast if he is to contribute significantly at post. He's going to get beat up underneath in practice, and should mature quickly. He is very talented.

 

You may know that John Pierce, ex FRA and Lipscomb university great is one of the assistant coaches, and has really helped the post players.

 

They may start off slowly, as all of these players are also on the football team, with the exception of Peoples and Mize.

 

 

Looking forward to an exciting DII year.

 

BTW, GOMAB, I haven't been looking at this board too long...where do you get your seemingly encyclopedic knowledge of HS hoops? I really enjoy your takes.

Is the same guy coaching that was there when David Harrison was a freshman back in 1999 or have they had a coaching change..If my memory serves me right the guy back then was really young. Someone let me know? Thanks TNBBALL!

 

Nooooooo!!!! Coach Butler decide to pursue other interests, and legendary Tennessee HS coach Gearge Pitts is starting his second year at BA.

Itzme........thanks a ton for the info on Brentwood Academy's team this year. I may look to you for more BA info as the season progresses. Do you play for BA??? Anyways, thanks again......

 

As for me, I simply love the game of basketball. I coach AAU (Midstate Ballerz) and hope to get into the College Coaching ranks soon. I love the recruiting game, and have tried to learn from those who know a heck of a lot more than I do. Thanks for the interest.........

    • Has BA landed any cornfed cowboys to block up front?
    • Yea I agree I will say tho I was a big “ v “ fan if an  opening ever did happen I think it would’ve been good to see him have a shot coming from a power house like Oakland. I’m sure he’s learned a lot from Kevin.  I bet he would bring a really good offense scheme IMO But after all this I just dunno anymore.  Whatever happens with the rumors an such if it did come to and opening I think this messes it all up.  The board members dreams are slowly slipping away now. I haven’t lived there for awhile I just hear what I hear, but my question is would there be any good potential candidates?? That’s why I don’t understand why people want b s out so bad who else could do any better ?? IMO there’s nothing attractive about it? As I stated earlier I went to the last game last year and taking a leak in a porta Potty is pretty sad and still nothing being done they say .. 
    • I have a sophomore that can do 177 (preferred) or 192. Sent you an email.
    • speaking of board members how can a man get arrested 12 days ago and still be head coaching a team in TC school system? looks like your right about the tc board members. I bet it would be different if they had a kid on the team
