Here is a question for debate. I think everyone will agree that Whitwell, Cornersville, Greenback and Huntingdung were probably the 4 best teams in 1A and very close together in ability. However there was a big difference in number of kids selected all state. Whitwell and Greenback with 6 and Huntingdung with only 1. Wonder why that is??

I would have to say SP and Lake County were also in that top group. The difference in them and the group of Whitwell, Greenback, and Cornersville was large, dominant senior classes. Huntingdon got 1 chosen and SP got 2 chosen. I believe it’s because they were both eliminated in the quarterfinals. Usually, the team in the semifinals and beyond receive the largest bulk of the picks and that held true again.

I agree as well on the top 5-6 all could have won state

2013 GB was a quarter team and had 5.Your assessment holds no water.:popcorneater:

I already told you a West Tn sportswriter whom i was introduced to in 2016 in Cookeville told me that the awards are for regular season no matter when they meet to vote.

Ok, I didn’t remember you telling me that one. Was that before or after all of those adult beverages we had with Roy and GbNation in Cookeville in 2017?

He’s probably a pretty good player. I’m just saying Stewart for SP was likely the best lineman on the field during our two games. It is ashame he didn’t make the list. And yes... it’s crazy that Wingo didn’t make the team as well. 

Stewart  deserved to be on there as well. He is a very very good player.

If yahoo is an adult beverage then we are guilty if not he is fibbing!:-D

The yahoo was spiked with “Red Bull” and that “Horny Goat” stuff. Then you boys went and kidnapped Roy and promptly treated him like Ned Beatty. I guess it all adds up. Whoever spiked the Yahoo drinks is responsible for Roy’s disappearance last year.

    • Understand the young thing.  I was one of those.  Barely 17 when I graduated from high school and started college.  But redshirting for athletic purposes isn't doing them any favors, in my opinion.  Life isn't always going to be fair.

    • The Girls Basketball team I am a part of played for a gold ball this season. One of the biggest differences in the sports is that there is no field prep/maintenance in basketball.   Our baseball is successful and play 30 games in the regular season as well. All of the teams dedicate A LOT of time in preparing for their next opponent. 
    • Im pretty excited about the new rules that NFHS voted to adopt. Does anyone know if this will take place in Tennessee starting this year? I think I heard/read somewhere that the TSSAA bi-laws say they have to mirror what the NFHS does, and when the NFHS offered the current weight classes as options, TSSAA didn’t adopt them until NFHS made them official. Did NFHS make these changes official starting next season or will it be similar to the weight classes where TSSAA doesn’t change what they are doing until it is  an officially official part of the NFHS rule book? It’ll be interesting to see if it is rolled out for the new TSSAA Middle School season and I saw a post where the youth wrestling in TN was going to vote on adopting it as well.  I’ll pray for all the youth coaches that will have to shoulder the confusion from all those crazy #### parents who already think they know the rules more than everyone else  . Imagine the first time their kid is taken down and a 3 goes up on the scoreboard or their kid gets pinned with only one point of contact in the cylinder. Their heads might explode. i kid, I kid. Sort of. I’m surprised ride time was brought down with all the other changes. I know some argue that it promotes stalling on top, but its been an official scoring method in college forever, so I figure it must be doing something right. Do any of you think that’ll ever be implemented?
