Semifinals 

Unaka @ NG 

S North @ Hampton 

My guess is Hampton and NG in the finals. 
Cosby v Hancock is the other region finals.  
Winning district 1 tourney is huge to stay away from Cosby and playing at Home 

You definitely don't want to go to Cosby.  Old24eagle is always beating people up outside the door and eagle3314 charges double for popcorn :lol:

I wouldn't sleep one bit on the 3 District 2 teams (Cosby, Hancock, Jellico). Johnson kid from Cosby is the real deal, got some solid players to complement him, they've played a tough schedule so their records is deceiving. Also going to Hancock in the first round won't be a cake walk, they played Cosby tough and seem to be playing well. Jellico has some guards that can stroke, if they are hot they can be dangerous as well. NG and Hampton are both very tough from what I have heard though, love tourney time!

I agree, have played at Cosby and Hancock. It does not matter if you are better or not when you go to those places. I see Cosby and Hampton meeting in the Region Semifinals and NG playing possibly Hancock in the other. Hampton at Cosby would be a really good game to watch.

They're even worse with  their jr high.  My daughter's youth club team from back when they were in 5th grade would have beaten them.  That's the worst jr high team I've ever seen.  Those girls must've never played til 7th grade. 

 

When my kids were there, soccer and softball and cross country were the big sports for girls. They would go to at least substate every year in all. In soccer and cross country that would mean competing with Greeneville, since soccer used to be A/AA In the same district. So the girls spent most of the off season/summer playing one of the two or running, so they just never got good in basketball. But when my son graduated in 13’ the girls basketball team at least won a few games, and usually would play at least a few conference games close. But I’ve never seen anything like the team now. I know they havent had the same coach for more than 2 years, since coach price left in 2014. So maybe that’s part of it?  Who knows...

Biggest reason is no youth club or feeders.  That is what has made cloudland so good over the years.  My kids started playing when the ball was bigger than them.  After their class graduates,  cloudland will be in a serious decline.  Parents are the ones who make or break small school sports.  I am lucky to have so many like minded parents who have their kids out there with my girls pushing them to be the best.  I am hoping our school will stay open long enough for my kids to graduate.  Cland has been declining for years now.  They shut the baseball program down and if coach Potter hadn't of stepped in, football would've been gone as well.  If things continue like they are,  cland will be shut down before the decade is over.

LOL..I'm well beyond my "beating people up" age. I tried to beat up pujo and uknoit when they came to Cosby back in the fall but the worst I could do was get uknoit to work the chains and pujo had to sit next to  my skillet slinger!

Cosby is a tough place to come get a win this time of year...I think we are all chasing NG right now though. If both 1 seeds win out in the region where is the championship game played?

Is this pretty much the same boys as last years team. If so I think you'll be tough to beat at Cosby.  Agree about North Greene ,they look pretty tough to me.

We returned 3 starters from last years team but we look a good bit different. We will be tough to beat as long as we’re playing at Cosby. I think us Hampton and Hancock all have about the same chances to win the region and NG is the favorite.

From what I have seen a lot of these games have been being played in the 50's around the region .. if you don't score 65 you're probably not beating ng that's what they score on a bad night .. if ng plays good they are 10 points better than everyone in the region .. but it's tournament time anything can happen .. Cosby is tough at home but I'm going to say a ng and Hampton Championship..

    • Yea I agree I will say tho I was a big “ v “ fan if an  opening ever did happen I think it would’ve been good to see him have a shot coming from a power house like Oakland. I’m sure he’s learned a lot from Kevin.  I bet he would bring a really good offense scheme IMO But after all this I just dunno anymore.  Whatever happens with the rumors an such if it did come to and opening I think this messes it all up.  The board members dreams are slowly slipping away now. I haven’t lived there for awhile I just hear what I hear, but my question is would there be any good potential candidates?? That’s why I don’t understand why people want b s out so bad who else could do any better ?? IMO there’s nothing attractive about it? As I stated earlier I went to the last game last year and taking a leak in a porta Potty is pretty sad and still nothing being done they say ..

    • speaking of board members how can a man get arrested 12 days ago and still be head coaching a team in TC school system? looks like your right about the tc board members. I bet it would be different if they had a kid on the team
