Swing and a miss by me. Congrats to CC on a good quality win and a heck of a start to the year. They will be a contender in Double A...whoever finishes 2nd in 8AA is gonna have a tough time competing with them IMO. Upperman and Macon better fire all their shots at each other to win the District title. 

 

SM does have at least one college level guard in Alex Eldridge. Already has an offer from TTU. Also have a couple D1 post players but they are young and sometimes these things happen to young teams. I would a LOT rather play Stone now than in February when it matters. That being said, in their region....too many teams that create a tall order to achieve the ultimate goal. Someone has to go through Bradley and the sub state round is almost an impossible feat imo. 

If anyone has a D1 guard it's Cumberland. Dishman ended the night with 37 points, and in my opinion is one of the best 2019s out there. Eldridge was only able to put the ball in the basket four times. With my years of basketball knowledge as a coach and spectator an 8 point performance isn't D1 material, especially if they have more turnovers than points.  As for the post players, Stone has height and a lot of potential inside but the question is will they be able to develop it? Cumberland has taken players off the bench and made them threats in the game.. Maybe Stone should take notes..

I agree that I also think Dishman is a D1 guard. No disagreement with that comment AT ALL.....However, the comment that Stone has no D1 level guards is a little nutty considering that they have multiple guards with offers. And...arguably they have the most talent laden roster in the Upper Cumberland RIGHT NOW...even though the majority of it is young. Those are the facts. 

 

May be true about Cumberland developing talent, but the proof is in the pudding...Cumberland has went to a couple sub states and 0 state tournaments in the last few years to my knowledge. Should go to the state tournament this year, whether they will or not remains to be seen as they will have to go through Upperman or Macon to attain that and that is not a small feat. However, Stone has a couple more years to "develop" before you are going to be able to accurately compare apples to apples between them and Cumberland County (as Buck hasn't had time yet and they are incredibly YOUNG). My bet is on Stone to out perform CCHS down the stretch when these kids are of age.....guess we will see who ends up being correct.

Have you seen any teams play this year other than stone?  Stone has only beaten one team with a winning record  How many years does buck need?  I'm not sure that any player on stones team could start for cchs, let alone stone being the most talented team in the upper Cumberland.  If the stone guard plays at TTU, Gracee Dishman should go straight to the NBA, because that's how much difference there is in their games.

And as far as the proof in the pudding, I believe that's the 13th straight win for cchs over stone. 

Congrats...what size trophy did they get? 

 

Comparing the age of the rosters....yeah Stone will be one of the most talented teams in the UC. Two years from now, maybe you can compare them again and I hope CCHS is still in the equation...but I fear they won't be.

You might also refrain from talking trash before the game, and you wouldn't be in such a can of garbage. It would also help if you understood the game, before you comment about it. No cchs fan has talked any garbage. Stone fans are the ones talking about their most talented team in the upper Cumberland, after getting your rears handedto you twice in a week. You only get to brag about how good you are, when you win. Maybe Oakdale won't press tonight

It’s one of two things -either Stone is all hype with not much talent or they are poorly coached.  Half of their roster has been held so they are older and have played longer than they appear. Check out Mike Buck’s overall record when he was at CCHS and Stone. I think you will see he was lucky to win half of his games and rarely made it into the regional tournament. I will acknowledge he made it to the state a few times but that roster was developed by someone other than him long before they entered high school.

    • They’ve both gotten worse. I’ve seen enough games to know that. 
    • The only two transfers that Bearden has gotten that went on to play college football were a defensive back from Karnes, who transferred here way before the new coaching staff got here, and a running back from Carter, who went on to play at Maryville College. Both players received those offers while at Bearden, and both players got a diploma from Bearden High School. Therefore, they are Bearden kids, and you can’t do anything about that.   The transfer from Seymour didn’t win the job, what do you expect two quarterbacks to start at the same time? He played great on JV when he could stay healthy, and when he came in on varsity, he did great. The quarterback position is definitely going to be in good hands when the current starting quarterback leaves, but until then, they’re just going to be battling it out like every good quarterback competition does. The current starting quarterback has his flaws, and that is in the pass game, but what he doesn’t have flaws is running and scrambling, and if you go back and watch any game, which I’m sure you didn’t watch any, we used him very often, and when we needed a deep ball, we brought in the transfer from Seymour. The starting quarterback last year will be a senior this year, and the Seymour transfer will be a junior, so the Seymour transfer is definitely going to get his spotlight. He may even win the job this year. Football isn’t about who the newspaper thinks is the best kid. The best kid in the position will win the starting job, and I trust the coaching staff more than a newspaper or article to pick my starting QB.
    • I mean, we’ve only gotten two transfers that went on to play college football, one who went to UT Martin came his second semester junior year before the new coaching staff was here, and the other one went on to play at Maryville College, in which I don’t believe he had any interest prior to transferring.
    • An FYI: To see how an opponent has done against another opponent since 2001- go to the game by clicking on one of the teams. Click the G beside the game. For example, Milan: The info will show you the previous matchups and other info.
    • All these college signees went yo other schools for 3 years, were getting college offers then transferred to Bearden. It’s not like this staff did much to develop them.    The BBall coaches son and the Seymour transfer were some of the most talented QBs in the region, and you guys developed them into QBs who might complete one pass a game.
