There is something to be said about grit and purpose. The thing about Oakland is that they are hardnosed  kids who all have an edge to their game. Yes they are talented and well coached, but you cant coach a kid to play "hungry"  These kids are playing with purpose and drive. This may be a bit of a poor analogy but I see this as a game of "Haves " and "Have not's"  Its  a Lexus vs  Ford  .. That Lexus is great with butt warmers and cooled cup holders and all, but it won't do what the ford will when it comes to work and pulling a load ....I think it will be close for a half, but Brentwood gets tired of getting punched in the mouth and it gets blown open second half.  Pats by 21 ....

That sounds like the words of somebody who is ready to embrace the dark side

Heck no.. maybe we'll get zoned a few more times and get some kids have a little edge .I would never say our kids are soft, but I don't see the grit we used to get in our players  (Jajuan Jennings, Connor Murphy, Master Teague  kinda player/ kid ....Until then we can coach what we get, make the most of the talent we have... gonna be a long while for us I am afraid

Remember in ‘02 when Brentwood beat coach Gary Rankin and Riverdale in the title game... I think the stars will align tomorrow night for the Bruins to bring home another gold ball

Remember it well. I was there. I don’t agree that history repeats though.

    • What you are saying is true about high school athletics being a privilege and not a right, but NO ONE ever knows what will happen if a case goes before a jury.  Again, I have been in a couple of jury rooms and it's always a little crazy.  That is why my prediction is you will see a settlement before the case goes to trial.
    • What rules does everyone not operate by?
    • So you want a have and have not split? Sound like the perfect ramp to elitism. Tell those rural kids that they'll never be able to compete with those urban kids. They're not good enough right? Or we could just do what travel baseball does and have tournaments every weekend and give kids big fake rings for winning a few games. The suburban public schools are typically the ones with more funds. Urban and rural schools have more in common in finances than they do with rural schools. I've taught and coached in all of it. The difference is attitude. But if you're jsut going to say you can't compete because you don't have the money then that's an excuse. Especially in basketball. The balls are the same size, the rims are the same height and size. The ball dribbles the same in some rural gym in mountains as it does in the FedEx forum. Charters come and go like a fart in the wind. They are no real threat to anyone. Magnets could be but rarely do they win either. It just hasn't been seen in Tennessee.  
    • That’s a good line. Wins would be Soddy, Howard, and Ooltewah. Maybe East Ham again or Knox Central. Tyner maybe but being that late in the year it’s hard to say. I don’t think we get by Red Bank this year.    Rhea could be anywhere from 2-8 to 6-4. 
    • I agree with the Farragut and Bradley claim. Those will both be wins. Bearden like you say is depending on when you get them in comparison to when the wheels fall off.  As far as West goes I’m 50-50. They have been able to reload so far so until they show me they haven’t I can’t count them out.
