I am all in for Nolansville, and I agree about the East with the exception of Anderson County.  I have watched them for years, they play in a lot of tournaments I ref in or watch my nieces and they are always a tough out.  The other East teams have a good year or two, but Maryville or HV could not have made it out of Districts here.

2015 (GOODPASTURE when they were Single A) was the last time that a team lost on day one, played 3 games on day two to advance to the finals, then won it all. Will Nolensville have the legs to do it today? South Greene did it today in A!

No So Greene won their first match against Halls

Summertown defeated Hume Fogg maybe they should have been in 2A - just who gets hot at right time 

Yes and its crazy the whole double elimination thing...EXCEPT in the finals. WIth both teams with one loss in tourney shouldn't they play again? I *think* they do in softball?

Had that discussion w Jim Thompson ( coach T ) his thoughts were everyone knows the rules - but I agree either single elimination ( or one and done ) or true double elimination

I had that discussion with some people as well. Even though Hume-Fogg won, I would agree that teams like Hume-Fogg and South Greene should have to win twice in these situations. Also, I thought it was interesting that Summertown would have been the favorite in AA too. I do know that sometime during the Nolensville invitational (or right after) Hume-Fogg setter got injured and was out the entire district and region tournament. Didn't come back until the sectional against White House Heritage.

One bad game can drop you into losers bracket but a bad game in finals and it’s over / again not fair but for now guess that’s the way the cookie crumbles

Guess what? Contrary to all the expert opinions of the last couple of months, A team from East Tennessee, won in Single A. Fair and square, according the the rules that each team agreed to by virtue of their participation.

Instead of giving even a little bit of credit to an amazing comeback by South Greene, SG fans are lectured about "fairness."

Sounds like loser talk.

    • Couple of thoughts: 1.  I just don't understand all the intricacies in TSSAA transfer rules anymore.    William Blount had a kid that played the final part of the basketball season with them this year,  that played at Hardin Valley last year, and played football for Bearden this year.  I say that to say, I know the coaches and the AD and the Principal at WB and I will never believe they would do something they knew was wrong.  They are men of character.  I BELIEVE the same thing about the coaches and administration at Maryville.  Call me gullible, but these are men and women of integrity in my experiences with them. 2.  Much like the transfer of the Clemmer kid a couple of years ago, with Smith, the football team is getting a huge boost, but the impact on the basketball team will be just as great or maybe even greater.  With Smith playing post, it frees the Sigmund kid who will be coming back from injury, to play more with his face to the basket.  The Rebels basketball squad in my mind, will be "the program" in East Tennessee next year.
    • Could not agree more. After this year, McKenzie's new coach will have their work cut out for them. Staying in 1A would definitely be a huge plus. Most years there is not much difference in the top 5- 1A and 2A teams across the state, but after the top 5 or so there is normally a huge drop off for 1A. Regular season region play is a lot easier for 1A in West TN  right now.
    • Word is Jason Maxwell will be new AD - he is currently head baseball coach. Also heard Roc might be headed to Pope as an assistant coach.
    • you must not know how tssaa operates lol 
    • I agree. A lot more people are starting to see what is really going on around here and how a certain few board members are abusing their power. Eyes are starting to open.
