tigerfan0020 Posted December 9, 2020 Report Share Posted December 9, 2020 With district games starting, what are your thoughts on how the district should pan out???? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UTRok Posted December 9, 2020 Report Share Posted December 9, 2020 I will go with Upperman at the top until some one knocks them off. Hard to believe it's Dec 9th and just now talking about 8AA basketball. Is Sells enough to give Livingston the 2nd slot. Will York have enough to play in the top half of the district?

scatback Posted December 10, 2020 Report Share Posted December 10, 2020 Upperman (How do they reload every year? Good coach but team could lead state in technicals) Watertown (transfers help but awesome coach and athletic) York ( That post is a 17 year old senior and have a bunch of good young players) livingston ( they go as sells go but have a good chance to beat people) Cannon ( Gus and some good post) Tie with Dekalb ( good size , quick guards) Macon ( Got some good shooters and will let you know when they score) Smith ( no seniors, 1 junior , bunch of sophomores and a few freshman) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most of the team are seniors that have been there 4 years. Will be interesting to see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alumn89 Posted December 11, 2020 Report Share Posted December 11, 2020 Upperman - should easily win this district. No contest. Livingston - im just high on sells. May be the most talented kid around York/Cannon Watertown Everyone else Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Upperman is the best team in 8AA and in the entire UpperCumberland for that matter. I’m not saying they won’t lose a game here or there but they will have to play bad to lose a district game this year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moonshiner Posted December 14, 2020 Report Share Posted December 14, 2020 Looks like everybody had DC picked around 5th/6th and Watertown anywhere from 2nd to 4th. DC beat undefeated Watertown Friday. Anybody see the game? What happened? Watertown have an off night, or DC better than expected? Just a little surprising to me.

scatback Posted December 14, 2020 Report Share Posted December 14, 2020 I talked to couple parents and they said Dekalb just flat beat them. They were ready and played their buts off. I might have to change my predictions but I’m gonna hang with what I picked..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I'd argue alot of that has to do with his athletic ability over sells. I still believe Sells is the most gifted, skill wise. Either way - we are splitting hairs probably with those 3. All great players. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see where DC took them Bees to task the other night, so DC may be (may be) a little better than most thought. Beating Watertown and making Upperman sweat a little ( at Upperman ) Good to see them competitive. And ya know what, it's them same coaches they had for the past 2 years, Reckon they just now got one of them Books...Basketball for Dummies, I wonder where ole Iceman is with his moaning and groaning about how terrible his team is. It's become an annual tradition,,,.. What about it Icy, guess if you can say something bad, don't say anything at all...….. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
