He's very athletic, can step out and shoot the three. He's about 6'4 but he's more of a wing then a post. Plays extremely hard no matter what the score is. I personally thought he was Alcoa's best player last year. Edited November 6, 2015 by QSouth89

Not qsouth or alcoabasketball, but I have seen Gist play. Very talented player, good size, streaky shooter, handles the ball pretty well,, and goes to offensive boards hard. Definitely a big loss for Alcoa. Heard he was at Cookeville now, correct? He will be an impact player for them, IMO.

Q and Norman Dale beat me to it, but he was a big inside presence for us and a good shooter much of the time. His absence will be felt for sure. He's a great athlete.

He will certainly add an element to Cookeville's basketball team.

It is obvious that is one of my favorite movies, huh? So many classic scenes but I particularly love the scene where Coach Dale tells the big guy Strap that Gods wants him on the floor and he proceeds to go out and dominate. He definitely knew how to push the right buttons.

Classic film, I love it.

Saturday is the first game for the Irish.  Anyone know anything about Sevier County?  Will they be in the same boat as the Irish with a limited number of athletes?  Being 3A probably not.
