We're pretty good up here in Halls this year... We were young last year with 4 of our starters being freshmen and sophomores. I think we'll be able to hold our own pretty good against UC... I don't see any other teams in the region who will touch us...

I agree MrOct81. I posted a topic about the top teams in District 14A and two people replied. MrBigster replied UC. Someone else replied, "How is Humboldt?" I don't think they've actually seen Halls this year, but those HHS Tigers will turn a few heads this year.

I really hope yall are.But will have to see yall against UC, Lake Co, Gibson Co etc.Not beating Tripp Ac or Wynnburg A lot of teams may lookngood against them.You do realize Union City has 3 starters back and a key transfer.Lake Co has about 9 players back, only losing 1 starter.Think Gibson has 4 starters back.South Fulton is young but I thought they looked good and pkayed very hard against Dyer Co in the jamboree.

Jackson SS lost Hicks (transfered to one of the top basketball factories in the USA, in Flawda) . They sill have Chris Mcneal (signed with WKU) and a few others, but far for the team that won the state last year, Not even on the same planet. HOWEVER, things are about to change. Jackson SS has the #1 PG (class of 2017) from the Bangladesh, #4 PF from El Salvador(class of 2016, expect to cross the border next week) #5 SF from Greenland (class of 2015), and the #547 C from Texas(class of 2016, this is the only kids name I know, putboobiein). All these transfers are legit form what I'm told. We'll see if the hype is real or not soon enough. All are expected to suit up around Christmas. I'm going to temper my enthusiasm until I get to see them.

 

As far as this years UC team being as good as the 2008 or whatever year it was they beat Manassas for the gold ball, forget that, its not going to happen. That was a special team, the kind that only comes around every 20 years or so. That isn;t to say they can win it all, just saying its rally unfair to even make a comparison.

Looks like Obama's amnesty deal is working out fine for J S-S....

 

You are right...The 2007 team was a special group...They were focused on one goal and they were not going to let anyone stand in their way, including Legend... :mrgreen:

    • That was after the 2nd year of a 4 year cycle.  Since Covid we have been on a 2 year cycle.  So, there really isn't a "mid cycle" reclassification this time.   Idk if there's anything in place to address the issue of a school closing.  My guess is, nothing can be done.  This would be akin to the 1st year of a 4 year cycle, where a school has the 20% +/- but not allowed or even have the option to move up or down.
    • No reasonable lawyer would take up this case. I am not a lawyer, but I know school law in and out.  Similar situations just like this play out thousands of times each year across the country, even at the college level (i.e. Ole Miss)  The Plaintiff's never win...ever.  If I am wrong, please provide a legal precedent for me. I will be waiting.  https://www.espn.com/college-football/story/_/id/39431892/judge-drops-ole-miss-player-lawsuit-lane-kiffin  
    • Yes Justin Cruse was named head coach
    • It used to be, I think it still is, a change of 20% +/- gives reason to reclassify. Schools can choose to play up classifications but not down. Here is the mid cycle reclassification info on TSSAA.org When Memphis East changed from a regular public school to an "all-optional" school in 2017 the would've dropped to A but chose to stay in AAA in basketball (baseball, and softball) Penny was still coaching there and with the players they had they would've beaten A teams by 40 and slept walked to the championship. Other Memphis schools stayed in their classifications (mostly in basketball) until the next reclassification cycle. Of course this is the same time that a 4th class was added basketball.
