Anybody watch the NBA slam dunk contest last night? Mac McClung from Gate City put on a show. Glad to see someone from the area get some attention. 

Yes it was the first time I've really cared about it since Vince Carter back in the day.  I picked him to win from the moment it was announced he would be in it.

When I covered Ridgeview in SWVA, he did the East Bay funk dunk in a game against us that made SC Top 10.  May have even been number 1, can't quite remember.  Dude is out of this world.

On a side note... congratulations to West Ridge on winning the district tournament.  My daughter goes there so I ain't a wolf hater like maybe some D-B folks are...

Actually I don't think too many D-B folks hate WR (yet), I think the hate in that rivalry may be all one sided.

A potential region semifinal between D-B and West Ridge with a sectional bid on the line may sell out the TAC next Tuesday.

I thought it was pretty cool that he had his Gate City teammates as props on his second dunk, and then put his Gate City jersey on for the final dunk. Hasn't forgot where he came from. Deserves a statue in front of the school.

    • Hmmmmm……doe dee doe doe….i drove the lawnmower down to practice today…….hmmmm…… we got some new faces………. One can run faster than my lawnmower in fifth gear…… a few will be disappointed come November that they jumped ship and went down to that sewage facility……. You can bet the lawnmower on that. 
    • I don't know what's going on in the town of McMinnville, but I've read this and it's disturbing.  I'm a "player" person, and I want what's best for the player. If a player gets cut off the team because she said the "F word" then good grief. I mean, come on guys. I wish there was a way for the player to transfer to a different program and just play ball. There are a lot of athletes that are stuck because they're in crappy situations regarding their team/coach. This is player just happens to be one them.
    • Won't happen. College coaches will back the coach every time and it cost this young lady her senior season. Looks like the player may be right on this one. School let her  go after one season. This stuff happens more than you think. 
    • “No college is going to offer a scholarship to a player that is kicked off of the team.” For language? I’m not seeing that as a dealbreaker. 
    • Why did the coach get rehired after she was let go as an assistant by the former Warren County coach and the current AD?? Is that accurate?? I am very familiar with situations like this. Suprised lawsuits haven't happend before. If the coach unfairly let the player go, I think she has a shot because it cost her a scholarship. No college is going to offer a scholarship to a player that is kicked off of the team. Not going to happen. There are bad hires like this a bunch and kids are treated unfairly by coaches that can't coach a lick and have super long ropes somehow. Amazing how some of these coaches get hired and keep their job.
