[gogold]

Getting about that time of the year.  What's your top 5 in the state this year and why ?

How many starters does Eagleville have coming back? Who are the best teams in this region? Who could make the substate?

i agree with imdog landers should win region by 20 pts a night won state with this group should be a final 4 team easily mayby more

It won't be easily.  I can assure you that.  Winning the region and substate is one thing.  Once you get to the glass house,  its about who has the hot hand.  Every team there is a great team.

Here's my picks   (1)  Loretto  (2)  Greenfield  (3)  Clarkrange   (4)  Summertown  (5) Gibson Co.

You could interchange the first 2, but Loretto comes back loaded and will get back 2 of their players that couldn't contribute in state that could have helped them win it all.  They now have some experience in the grind to get there and compete.  With that said Greenfield is a load and they have the talent to win it all.  The other 3 teams on a good night could beat these top 2 I've picked to win it all.  Good teams with very good coaches in these 5.

Need to expand your list. There's more than 5 teams that could very well win it all!

My take based on what I saw this summer and returning talent from last year:

1. Greenfield - incredible collection of talent for a Class A school

2. Loretto - best player in Class A; solid supporting cast

3. Clarkrange - excellent guards; Coach Rogers 

4. Gibson County - defending champs; will be very good by January; Coach Wilkins

5. Summertown - return every contributor from state tournament team

6. Huntingdon - 3 very good players; will miss graduated PG's presence 

7. Eagleville - return every contributor from state tournament team; weak district

8. Peabody - incredibly athletic, will make people very uncomfortable

9. Dresden - looked very dangerous this summer

10. Oneida - good returning group

Other teams that could make state tournament with some breaks: Gleason, Pickett County, Cosby, Cloudland

Well, I asked for top 5 in my earlier post.  If I were doing top 10  I would probably go with (5)Eagleville, (6) Huntingdon, (7) Dresden, (8) Oneida, (9) Crosby, and (10) Dresden.

Gleason....

I know they are private but I think Trinity is as good as any of the publics. Great talent and depth.

Could win Division II-A this year...

I saw Trinity play this summer.  I was impressed.  If they were still in Division 1, I would have them ranked at 3 behind only Greenfield and Loretto.

Region tournament will be another district tournament. Who is biggest threat to Eagleville?
