Woulda, Coulda, Shoulda. Its like Coach Lombardi said, "If "ifs" and "buts" were candy and nuts, we would all have a great big Christmas." Listen, I'm from the "other side" of Morristown, and East is definitely our biggest rivalry in every sport, but you have to give credit where credit is due. You can't call a team with 27 wins "overrated." They have lost thier leading scorer, and I dont think they have lost a game since she got hurt. Starting 3 seniors right now hardly classifies them as an "old" team. I already knew that Coach Cloninger was a good coach (she coached my daughter in middle school), but she has certainly done outstanding with this group. They probably will not beat Science Hill, but I bet it will be a good game, and with the chance to play in sub-state against Farragut or Maryville, I would take East over either one. Congrats to East, and that is hard for me to say.

To do what shes done with what she has Tracy deserves to be considered Coach of the year in girls AAA. I think she has two girls on the team that plays AAU basketball and they are a sophomore and a junior. She is bringing the love of basketball to a place where softball has been the primary sport for a long time! Tracy Cloninger would definitely get my vote for coach of the year!!!

Looks like SH got a good draw. I realize you have to be able to beat everyone to win it all, but I'd say they got the easiest possible draw to get to the championship. On the contrary, I'd say ME got the worst possible draw. Good luck to both.

I dont think Clarkville 36 0 is a good draw I do belive they got the best 1st round draw

ME had a very good year and they have a good coach. But with 4 seniors and 1 junior starting they were one of the most experienced teams in all of East Tenn. They would have had a subpar year if they had won less than 20 games. Sevier and MW both almost beat ME with mainly freshmen and sophmores. And South Greene did beat them. Every game East played against what would be considered top competition, they lost by a ton.... SH, Mt. Juliet and Bradley Central. Tracy for IMAC coach of the year but not regional coach of the year. That goes to SH.

Morristown East needs to be proud of how well they played today. Losing to a great Memphis team by only three points is heart breaking. IMO, the girls played hard and with heart, and their coach had a good game plan. Considering that several people had predicted that they would be run out of the gym, they played great. Be proud! East may be one of those upcoming power houses of the future in our area.

 

Hoping that Science Hill will be in the W column tomorrow!

    • 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.
