If you will do a little research, you will see Fulton would have been a better draw than E Lit. Fulton beat Stone by 3. The same Stone LA beat twice although they beat them worse under the old coach. Trust me when I tell you Fulton would NOT run E Lit. out of the gym. Nor would Bolivar. LA by 20+

I may be wrong but I think rockingchair was talking about the boliver and fulton teams from 2 & 3 years ago.

Fact is, any of the eight teams has a good case for being here! Are they the best 8 in the state? They never are. But all deserve it if they make it this far. Now its who wants it more and alot of luck as to is the last team standing! EL and LA has as good a chance as anybody, ones chance ends tomorrow! Go Hog-Eye!!

Yes I was youngman thank you lol....and Sportster I'm sure Fulton doesn't have anywhere near the team they had 2 yrs ago nor does Bolivar. Just saying that EL need not overlook the CATS because we are playing well at the moment. And like O K said we have a good as chance as any team. When you get this far it's one game at a time and unless you play bad and/or are simply outmanned any team has a chance to advance. GO HOG-EYE

Any time ole buddy! Us LA fans know all too well how things can go at the boro, thats why we wont overlook anyone. Two years ago we were ranked #1 in AA and deservingly so. That year we beat CLARK NE 2 times by 25pts and they put Bearden(the #1 AAA team) out of the tourn and we lost to BC by 20! ANYTHING CAN HAPPEN!! To all the Hog-eye nation and EL fans making the trip as I hope to, be safe! :thumb:...

Well "genius," I do recall those two teams being two of the better boys basketball teams I can remember seeing. I know East Lit. is not that caliber. Fulton and Bolivar, both great teams, could shoot it from anywhere. Could do anything they wanted to. I've seen a lot of East Lit teams. I hope they teach more than speed, because in the past, they've needed a lot more.

 

You can not teach speed. For the second time. It's hard for teams like LA to come from such a weak district/region and play kids that are much more athletic and have much more speed. Simply because they're not used to it. It's tough to do what you normally do when you feel sped up and out of sink the entire game.

Sweety, you make a valid point. That is why we go out of our dist/region to play west creek, red bank, clevleland, etc...The cats are ready!!!!

Great season LA! So close led pretty much the whole game. Just didn't close it this time. Credit to EL for not giving up! Refs made sure that Ramsey couldn't be the deciding factor! He dominated the inside while he was in. Jake,kailen,Hill, and Paxton, its been a privlage! Jake, that is one of the best games Ive seen a Wildcat play!

    • Tax payer dollars are paid for certified teachers to "teach" and then coach. The primary job is to teach.  There are some district that ay awesome supplements and others that don't. Dyersburg and Dyer County are pretty close if I remember correctly. I would imagine that Football and basketball are above $10,000 now.  I've heard that Milan is $20,000 for boys basketball. I would imagine that football is more than that in Milan.  Collierville has camps that coaches get paid extra for. 3 camps a year, 100 kids a camp, $30,000 right there.  There are places like Memphis-Shelby County schools where the supplements are garbage even for the head coaches. I made less than $3,000 as the head assistant at Germantown in 2015 when we were 26-4 and one of the best teams in the Southeast. As a head middle school coach next year I will make between $4-5,000 at a municipal in Shelby County.  Coaches should be compensated for the jobs that are required but lets keep in mind that they are educators first.  It's pretty frustrating to other teachers that work their tale off teaching 6-7 classes a day to watch someone roam campus, not teach (or have very minimal responsibilities), and get paid the same (more with supplements) as a person who has the some years of experience or sometimes less. 
    • This will get coaches leaving the profession very quickly if this kid wins this case. This is absurd... 
    • yeah money aint right there anymore
    • I suppose you are correct but from my understanding it was going to be a situation of the HC saying yay or nay to every play
