Oakland gets a huge game from Abby Wright and Shelby Gibson to beat White County. Do not really know much about Bartlett, who do yall got and why?

Oakland SHOULD win this game. Bartlett is coming off of an impressive win over a very good and athletic Overton team. Bartlett is led by Charity Savage who is a very good player. Oakland should win this game though...

Being a Wilson Co basketball fan it is hard to hear how Oakland advanced.  The two players mentioned grew up in Wilson County schools.  Abby Wright played at Lebanon and Shelby would be at Wilson Central.  Nothing illegal about what was done, but it does show that if you are not participating in the "legal transfer" game, it is hard to compete at the highest level.  High school girls basketball has become more like an AAU tournament.  MJ's two best players came from Cane Ridge and played with AAU with a former MJ player.

Yeah and blackmans MeMe came from Mt. Juliet. I'm tired of hearing about people transferring and that's the only reasons teams win. Transferring is apart of it and always will be so everyone needs to get over it because Highschool athletes want to play at the highest level.

    • I am interested in seeing how much they progress in year two under Fitz myself. I do believe they will improve but how much will be the question.
    • Pirates can make a run at the dance for sure.
    • I've always been a football fan first and then if you have a band that's awesome.No question that DB has one of the best bands in the country and the whole region should attend at least one DB game just to see their band. I don't know if Nick Saban could come to Kingsport and build a football program that could match the Dobyns Bennett band's success.That said,as mentioned before, a couple of things would have to change in order for the Tribe to just win a state championship on the field.Besides a program that starts from the peewee teams and goes all the way to J Fred with all coaches and weight training { in time }on the same page. Sometimes it also takes a little luck like the 1998 Vols .There are a lot of great athletes at a lot of big schools around the state and just because you want something doesn't mean your going to build a program like Alcoa has. Yes,start at the bottom and have guys that are quality coaches teaching at every level is 100% the first step. Parents can make it a lot easier by getting their young athletes into an early start with conditioning and weights as well when they are old enough to lift.If your son is a man in the weight room before he gets to DB , then it won't take a "Dobbs" coach to make him competitive against other schools athletes when it comes to strength.
