They recruit well and like it or not Adam Sonn can coach with ANYONE in the state. Not a Sonn fan but that guy deserves props for what he has done at Goodpasture.

Coach Sonn is a fantastic coach and has full control of his team. I believe they will win 3 or more state titles over the next 5 years. They have the best sophomore in the state along with an ELITE 7th grader. Coach Keary (NYBA) deserves the credit for their recruiting success. #Savage 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree TN public school ball is weak atm anybody who watches a big variety knows this. (Could be a cycle maybe not) Whether it be players going out of state for prep or the private side. This state really didn't need 4A it watered the comp down big time. Oh well the games moves on. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ive watched him 4 times all against inferior opponents per usual and he's 2-2 so hard to judge pure coaching at that level because the talent is so lopsided for him 99% of the time. He’s in a sweet spot where he gets great players at a small school and has to win 2 real games to get a ship every year. Still impressive.

Don't know what games you watched, but this season they lost to Warren Central out of Kentucky who is probably the best team in Ky, and Clarksville Academy - with Eddie Ricks who might be Mr. Basketball tonight. This tells you how weak 4A basketball is....half of the posts are about Goodpasture. Edited March 13, 2023 by 2minutedrill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean how fun would it have been to see a potential D-B/Greeneville game for all the marbles last year since they split the regular season meetings... I agree with an earlier post that adding a fourth class has kind of weakened the field for all four classes. That being said, hoping the Indians can go down to the Glass House and come back to KPT with back to back gold balls. Won't be able to see the run this year though as I am leaving on a cruise ship next week. I love the no class state tourney in Kentucky. Would love to see it in TN but gotta reward as many ppl as possible at the end of the year to keep em happy so would never happen. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The KY method would interesting but I think people in this state would quickly sour on the small rural communities never getting close to a championship. 3 public West Tennessee girls teams won state championships last week. Under the KY rules I think only one of them would have even made it to the tournament. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, we'll be heavy underdogs now with Gillespie out. We have players who can step in and assume that role, but they're both very young and may not be ready for this big of a stage yet.
