Garrett Giles at greenback should be in the running     The kid can play ball    averaging well over 20 pts a game 10+rebounds   he plays with a great attitude and a big motor from anywhere on the floor     and is a straight  A  student and a great kid     only a sophomore and has several colleges looking at him    should certainly be in the running

Buckles will probably win it, and should! My top five would be:

Buckles - Hampton 

Robinson - Middleton

Pryor - Rockwood 

McNealy - Jellico 

Matthews - Perry Co.

 

Add Britton from North Green just saw he scored 56 or something one night and averages 28.5 ppg. I still think Buckles is the front runner, but could be anyones race.

Cadon Buckles from Hampton should definitely be in the conversation. Humble young man who does not care about personal awards, just wants to win. Team is sitting 18-5 right now ranked #5 in the State AP Polls in Single A. 
24 points per game, 4 rebounds a game, 3 assists a game, 2 steals a game, 81% foul shots, 56% from the field. 1000pt career club.  Then Mr. Basketball is to take in academics as well. Cadon has a weighted GPA of 4.7 for his High School classes, 32 ACT Composite score, then he has a 4.0 at Northeast State Community College where he will graduate with his College Associates Degree prior to graduation of High School and has a 4.0 there making the Presidents List. Cadon plays for a team that he doesn’t get sets ran for him and they just play the game. I really feel like this young man Cadon Buckles should be in the conversation at the very least. Feel also, Jason Britton from NG should be in the discussion. Very talented young man and player.

Britton, Phillips & Pryor will be hurt by their team’s records. Even though it doesnt necessarily correlate, voters are strongly influenced by team records. Robinson and Buckles have an advantage based on their team’s records.

Phillips’s team is in first place and many of their losses are to higher classification teams…Only 3 losses are to 1A teams!

Right, and Middleton has a 1 pt loss to Fayette Ware, a top 10 AAA rival...no losses to a A or AA

Cadon Buckles from Hampton has led his team to 0 losses from A-AA or AAA schools in Tennessee. Only loses from Tennessee Schools are to defending State 4A State Champions Dobyns-Bennett, 4A Farragut and 4A Oak Ridge. Other 2 losses was in Orlando, FL against William R Boone and Oviedo both have 6x the enrollment of students as a 7A and a 6A school there in Florida. Middletons schedule is ranked 60th of 80ish Single A schools in Tennessee. Taking nothing away from any of these kids just putting facts out there. Feel like all the kids I have seen mention should be in the conversation for sure

    • Winfree's senior year was the season she needed to secure more college interest. That opportunity was taken away from her. A lot of false assumptions can be made about what happened and what the options are. Unfortunately, the former coach and administration did not allow Winfree to have due process. A lawsuit was filed for a reason, and it will run its course by people who conduct discovery and take depositions. Unless the parties settle out of court, a lot of the pertinent issues will come to the public surface. I wrote about many of the issues here: https://bdnewsletter.news/2023/11/17/grounds-for-investigation-and-suspension/ I interviewed Winfree after she was dismissed from the team and wrote about it here: https://bdnewsletter.news/2023/12/01/a-new-interview-with-sable-winfree/ Winfree had been on teams in Warren County since the fourth grade and never been dismissed from a team. The real questions are why was Winfree dismissed from the team, and why the administration backed a coach whom they did not rehire.
    • What is the hold up here? I have not heard anything in weeks. Are they waiting for the right person or is something else going on?
    • Per usual, we'll be hard to beat in the regular season, I'm sure. It's the post season that I'm more worried about, specifically the coaches. Maybe they'll be able to make some adjustments that will keep the momentum in our favor. How's Grays recovery coming along?
    • Something don’t add up here a college coach is not going to turn away a good player they need just because they didn’t get along with their high school coach 
    • RR, you might remember. Didn’t someone hide the kicking shoe that game? It seems I remember we had missed a kick the week before, and we needed all the points we could get. We thought we had a better chance going for two, so $?&@$ hid the shoe after the first miss that game. No one on our sideline looked for it very hard.
