My reasoning is they did "compete" last year and lost to eventual state champion Memphis East by 1... they bring about everybody back and look really good...

 

Two interesting notes to add if/when they make it to the state this year against a Memphis team:

 

1) Blackman will definetly have the crowd behind them as they are from Murfresboro and should PACK their side of the gym...

 

2) outside shooting at the murphy center has always been tough as it is competely different than shooting in your standard high school gym... Memphis schools will benifit from this as most of their points are gathered from inside the paint either by inside buckets from the bigs or penetration...

DC could easily make it to the substate... Short of that... their season is over... They will not beat whoever comes out of memphis... If you move them east they would have a shot...

 

East

A - Hampton, Wartburg, Cloudland, Rockwood

AA - Fulton, Alcoa, Howard

AAA - Bearden, Science Hill

 

Middle

A - Watertown, MTP

AA - CPA, Cheatham Co, Waverly

AAA - Blackman, Brentwood

 

West

A - TCA, Union City, BTW, Humboldt

AA - Southside, Sheffield, Mitchell

AAA - Southwind, Melrose, Whitestation, Whitehaven

 

a quick list without referencing schedules...

You must be from out west or middle tn. Because Alcoa and Bearden have absolutely no shot at state. NONE! They wont even win their district or district tourny's.

Oak ridge and Science hill both gave Melrose good games at the arby classic so i think those along with blackmon are contenders from outside memphis can u give me some info on Oak Ridge and Science Hill just key players and lf they have any size

Oak Ridge is heavy gaurd loaded and they can all play. Inside they have a Merriam kid about 6'5". He is silky smooth with some of the best touch around the basket you will ever see. He's a Jr. Nice size too. They have a 6'8" Jr on the bench that may be the most improved player in 3 years ive ever seen. Point gaurd Rian Hall is a freak Athlete that can get to the rim anytime he or his coach wants him too. Good role player named Fagan, he's kinda the guy that settles every thing down, about 6'2" and shoot the 3 pretty good. But their key guy, again a JR, is Henderson. About 6'2" and SMOOOOOTH! Springs in his legs, shoots well, plays in control, Probably the best player in the district to never get player of the year, due to the Sibley kid from Karns. As a team they play 10 guys, play tenacious defense all over the floor. Great coach, great fans, great facilities, and they have played one of the toughest schedules in the state, so the will not be in AWE of anyone.

 

Now for their weaknesses. Should hit a higher percentage at the line. they shoot the ball to well from everywhere else to not excell at the line. It has been the reason for 2 of their losses. Thats about it on the weaknesses. LOl

This is coming from an opposing teams fan, that has to see them 4 times a year. LOL Play Maryville thursday, which could be a region final preview.

 

SH, is a little bigger than OR, and have one of the best gaurds in the state. Good is his name I think. He can do it all, shoots the 3 as well as anyone, and it doesnt need to be wide open either. Dont know alot of their players, but their well coached too.

    • Yeah.  Kids only transfer in and out of Bearden these days, you know.   That particular poster evidentially has a personal vendetta with Josh Jones.   Consider the source.  And the kid transferring to McCallie is a terrific talent, but an opportunity to go to McCallie on scholarship (and I am assuming that is the case) is one that is very much beneficial both athletically and academically.  McCallie is a great school for both.   Bearden will be fine.  And so will both of those kids who decided with their parents/advisors to go elsewhere.  
    • I think we are conducting interviews now since we have so many wanting to come to school here and play for a real team with a chance to play in front of lot's of fan's and have a chance to win a championship every year.  
    • Esteemed colleagues, On this auspicious Saturday morning, I fortuitously encountered Dr. Satterfield at the Early Bird Cafe, whereupon we engaged in a discourse concerning the pool of candidates vying for a coveted position. Dr. Satterfield, possessing a discerning eye, has graciously shared insights into the contenders, which I shall now relay to you in a structured manner. Eric Vetetoe, though initially absent from my considerations, ascended to the zenith of Clint's roster, poised atop his discerning clipboard as a preeminent candidate. Kyle Gregory, with a coaching demeanor reminiscent of a bygone era, has captivated Clint's admiration. His interview performance, I am informed, left an indelible impression, aligning seamlessly with Clint's nostalgic sentiments. Davy Cothron's cerebral approach to offense, notwithstanding a past championship game setback, garners high praise from Dr. Satterfield. His strategic acumen, it appears, remains unblemished despite previous trials. Brandon Eden's steadfast allegiance to the team, evidenced by his tenure on the creekbank, earns him considerable favor in Clint's estimation. Anticipation lingers as to whether an offer may be extended in recognition of his unwavering dedication. Wesley Satterfield emerges as a compelling candidate following a favorable assessment by Mr. Satterfield himself. The prospect of a Satterfield succession holds a certain allure, embodying continuity and tradition in equal measure. Kyle Shoulders, a surprising entrant in the applicant pool, impresses Clint with his football intellect, potentially positioning him as a contender for the role. Josh Hackett's defensive prowess, particularly in encounters against Trousdale over recent years, earns commendation from Coach Satterfield, underscoring his proficiency in the strategic aspects of the game. John McNeal's track record of success across multiple sports affords him undeniable merit, though the prospect of his acceptance, if offered, remains uncertain. Chad Evitts, a former NFL luminary, presents a unique opportunity, recognized keenly by Mr. Satterfield, to infuse our program with elite expertise and experience. Matt Dyer, revered for his contributions during the regular season, faces scrutiny for his playoff performances, a dichotomy that weighs upon Clint's evaluation. Chuck Gentry, endorsed by Dr. Satterfield, embodies the promise of transformative leadership, drawing parallels to his past triumphs in revitalizing programs akin to ours. Clint extols BJ West's astute management at the middle school echelon, where his strategic maneuver of strategically calibrating the team's schedule to optimize performance stands as a testament to his sagacity and acumen in navigating competitive dynamics. In conclusion, the deliberations surrounding our prospective leadership remain nuanced and multifaceted, underscoring the significance of this decision in shaping the future trajectory of our esteemed institution.
