Quit getting so defensive and go fix your press offense

Not a coach, but thanks for thinking I have anything to do with it.

This years team not quite as good as that team was. Tyreke was a man and he had a senior laden team around him. They had a better post game for sure and Tyreke got to the rim at will. That team probably beats this years team 6/10 times. Now having said that this Clay County team has only one senior and his last name is NOT Strong. This year Tyreke would have been the best player on the floor up until crunch time. To me that’s where the Strong kid really shows up. Tyreke never really wanted the ball when the game was on the line where as Strong does. Strong has a better perimeter game so he is extremely hard to guard. The Spivey kid is also a junior and at 6’4 he will only get better. Clays post players are sophomores and they are so well coached they get better every year.  Clay is the favorite again this year just like they were that year. IMO if it comes down to the last shot to win or lose like it did with the team Tyreke was on I’m putting my money on Strong to finish it with the win. Put Tyreke on this team and I still want the ball in the hands of Strong when the game is on the line. 

I've saw both teams play and Key was outstanding. Strong is outstanding too. Strong has a very nice touch around the rim. He seems to be harder to guard since he gets so much elevation on his shot. IMO, I believe Clay is set up better this year to win Class A ST than the 2017 team even with underclassmen. Coach Edwards is a class coach.

I agree with this!  CC supporting cast is overall better this year than that runner up team. Defensively it’s night and day , especially at the guard position! it’s not even close. I will say the post play isn’t as good but they are still young. You guys know Defense wins Championships! 
 

If NG doesn’t put schultz on the post in the half court they will get run out of the gym they will need to slow it down and use their size. They know they don’t have anyone that matches up with Strong so if coach doesn’t change up defensive schemes it will be a long morning for the Huskies.

No argument from me. I will pull just as hard for this team as I did that 17’ team.

UC..Pickett still winning by 15-20 as u stated yesterday? I don't think u will be right on this one buddy...good thing you didn't bet me

[UCSportsFan]

MAHS very athletic. If they get the lead they are tough because of their size and speed. If and it’s a big if right now but if PC regains lead I see them winning. But they will have to play much better. Right now MAHS in control.

Point is. I told you..no 15-20 piece..you underestimated MAHS..win or lose...no 20 piece  for them

MAHS very athletic. But for sake of future officiating. This white official needs to never see a floor anywhere ever again.

Agreed. You were correct. #10 is smooth and lefty. Very tough matchup for PC. 

[terop]

I see you MAHS...very poised and athletic team.

Father is a former NFL player..Jerome Woods..Vernard is a good hard nosed coach..good defensive coach...I don't know much about Clay County but I knew Pickett couldn't beat them...
