Not sure what Meigs will have this season....Feel Hampton is another year away from being tourney strong...But they will be stout in 2019 and forward for a few years

So what are you thinking up that way this season? We will look totally different than last year but I expect to compete again and if we get hot might end up in the Boro

BD, it appears to me We love to shoot the 3 ball...A LOT! Shooting  20% behind the arch aint gonna cut it! We gotta fall in love with the drive and improve our power game!  I'm hoping to see a totally different game out of these boys by Christmas...And we'll see it IF they are coachable

Will you all be down here at Christmas? I haven't seen a schedule. Any idea what the other teams will be like up that way

I did see a schedule and I'm pretty sure we're not heading that way this year. Cloudland could make a run but I'm not sure about S Greene or Cosby...I'll find out about the rest of the field and let you know.

We got the pieces and could be there in the end, but some are young, timid pieces...Heck, ill just tell ya, we gotta become ballplayers instead of campers! Ballplayers move, slash and cut...This isn't Hampton basketball right now

The Sophomore class at Harriman right now has always competed at a high level in basketball and are going to get to get some clock and develop at the high school level on top of already having some good pieces taking over too. 

Our sophomore class looks pretty good too...as a matter of fact, we're dressing and playing 3 or 4 sophomores on varsity only now...we have a few other sophomores and a couple freshmen developing under Coach Matheson now too...Next year's incoming freshmen are also promising, meaning we should be a tuff out for the next few years...Some of these young ones had brothers that played at the boro and they want to get back there soon.

I am feeling a little more confident in this group.. the kids that are stepping on the court as starters this year for us can be a great complete group but I don't see us having any superstars, which I tend to like on a basketball court anyway. I think we will run into each other a couple times the next few years as we have a good class of freshman and sophomores.. we've got a kid who can be a stud that is a freshman

Not sure if we have one with the "superstar" mentality, but the bench is a good place for such a one! We will have a few that can flat out play!

Look forward to seeing ya pal! But keep me updated until then.

Coach T has you all coming down for the Classic but only the rhea co game listed with two open dates.. I will go give the dogs a look if that's the case

What's the freshman's name? You think he'll get any varsity minutes this year?

Union City is way far from being down.  They will play 12 deep, loaded with shooters and can run the floor.    Already beaten Covington at their place.  e had a freshman lead all scorers last night against Gibson County with 22 points.  The McMillan players from Westview transferred over and only made what was going to be a strong team stronger.  U C will be just fine and a team that should make some serious noise in the district, regional and even state tournament.  We have kids who can fill the basket from 30 feet, one right after another.  We have like 5 shoot guards and kids who can penetrate and create their won shot.  They are fun to watch and a team many feel to make some noise.

Beat Cov without their football players

    • And yes, in 2010 Clary/Scott Monger got into it with a R’dale fan. Well, mostly Monger lol. I think the fan took a swing at him. It’s funny as all get out listening to it on the replay. Scott told the guy to sit his a** down. Lol. That wasn’t the only time SM got into it with an opposing team. Seems like he got into it with someone at William Blount one year. He was an OG lol
    • Nope, they knew lol. He was just one tough hombre. Played right up to near the end of the Powell game like that and we almost won. I think they beat us, 21-17. Was a valiant effort on his part though.
    • No, that was in 2010. We played them in the quarterfinals in ‘11 the year I’m talking about, but we got hammered 35-14. 2010 was a fun year though. Played Maryville in the semis and gave them a really tough game for the majority of that game, but their depth eventually wore OR down, 38-21. Bradley had a few awesome runs in that game. He was a stud. Nothing fancy, but like I said, a mini Tebow. Would keep that read option up the middle and pound that tater in there. He was hard to bring down. Probably went for 195 lbs, if that.
    • Gibson County will be good next year as well. The five girls that didn't start last year are all solid and we have Micah Hart's sister coming up this year. We  will be very competitive especially late in the year. May lose some this summer getting girls reps and trying to figure things out but we are going to be good. 
    • Dyersburg will be really good for a while. Their JV is loaded as well. South Gibson ought to be much better with four really good players coming up from an undefeated  Jr. High Team. Also will have 3 players back from knee injuries last year. They will be a handful especially late. Dyersburg District right there with the Upperman District with quality teams.
