With my first post on Coacht, I want to give my predictions on how I think the season will turn out. I thought it would be appropriate to start a new thread also. Roundball is just around the corner...

 

1. York

2. Upperman

3. Livingston

4. Macon

5. Cannon

6. Smith

7. DeKalb 

8. Central Magnet

I was able to see several teams this summer and judging by what I saw then and what everyone has coming back, here's my two cents.

 

POY - Blevins

COY - Welch

 

1 - Macon

2 - Smith

3 - Upperman

4 - York

5 - Livingston

6 - Cannon

7 - DeKalb

8 - Central Magnet

5.macon

6.cannon

7.dekalb

top 4 could beat up on each other.

Upperman with the transfer wins it.

 

York and Macon are right there with my understanding they virtually return everyone.

 

Smith could and IMO will surprise people to be right there.

 

Biased opinion, but Cannon will get more out of their kids talent wise then anyone in the district. Still slot them mid to low on the totem pole due to how much they graduated, but watch it play out.

Upperman transfer is no difference maker right now, that could change over the next two years, but today he is a soft 6`7.

 

McWilliams is the most overrated coach in the district.

 

Have no clue why the last couple of years Upperman has gotten all these transfers?. Usually only perennial state contenders get that many transfers.

 

Hmmmm? Upperman is what they have always been in basketball... Average, even with the recent recruiting effort.

Tough times in DC. I would like to see them climb back to the top of the standings.

Smith was young and made  good run in district tourney last year, don't forget about them not sure if they lost anyone. Correct me if I am wrong ,but Macon just lost one senior? Upperman can shoot u out of the gym or they can shoot themselves out of a game. Maybe the big kid can get some put backs when they cant throw it in the ocean.. La lost alot by far ,but have the smoothest point guard in the district and a nice wing player.. Dekalb just is bare ,but have a very spiritual coach that can get  the kids  some emotional wins. Central dont see much improvement unless they got some new kids. Cannon like Dekalb good motivational coachin but Cannon lost alot. York has the premier player of the league so they are contenders depends if he is in shape and does not run out of gas to carry them thru a game and the season. Should be a fun year like always ..
