Two very good teams.  Hope we see that matchup again in the glass house.

Gatlinburg Pittman over MiMinn Central last night 76-75 at Central. That’s a impressive win.

Pretty impressive win in the round house. GP must be stacked this year. They’ve beaten some of the best teams in the state. AA is absolutely loaded. It will not matter who you draw this year. Every single team going to the glass house is really good and I can’t remember a time where that has been the case.  I think AA is actually stronger than AAA this year.

I think you nailed it.  AA has been a stronger than AAA last year and this year.  I don't think it will always be that way; it will likely cycle back and forth.  

AA is absolutely loaded right now.  I think state tournament looks like this:

Regions 1-2: Gatlinburg and McMinn Central

Regions 3-4: York and East Nashville or Westmoreland

Regions 5-6: 2 of Huntingdon, Cheatham Co, Summertown and Loretto

Regions 7-8: Gibson Co and Westview

Gatlinburg, McMinn, York, Gibson Co and maybe Huntingdon all have enough talent to win the whole thing.

If TSSAA came out and said we need two volunteers from AA to join the AAA State Tournammet they would be crazy not to. AA is loaded to the max.

Don’t leave out Canon Co in region 5-6 very good team could beat any of the 4 on a given night

So a conclusion is.. AA could maybe go 10-11 deep on a given night that “could” win it all?

They will have 8 really good teams. AAA is just not as deep as AA this year, IMO. Don't know about 10-11 but they will have 8 good one's.

Sorry @maddams nobody in AA was beating us last year! AA is loaded this year but last year we was different, I agree with 99.9 of the stuff that you post. But this the .1% that I disagree with!

That's probably true, though Westview and York would probably argue that point.  Those teams were great and had elite PG play, which was required to play with you guys last year.  

What I meant in the original post was overall AA was stronger than AAA last year.  Westview and York (best two teams in the tournament) played in the first round.  Gibson County, McMinn Central, Gatlinburg were all there and were really good teams.  AAA had South Side and Upperman (best two teams in the tournament) in the first round.  Elizabethton was really good.  Other than those three, the other AAA teams were solid but not great.

Southside had a generational team last year. Probably only Bearden and Bradley Central would have had a chance to beat them and not sure of that. AAA is down this year but it will bounce back quickly. Back to AA. York has zero seniors to my knowledge that start. Which is pretty amazing

    • That’s a good line. Wins would be Soddy, Howard, and Ooltewah. Maybe East Ham again or Knox Central. Tyner maybe but being that late in the year it’s hard to say. I don’t think we get by Red Bank this year.    Rhea could be anywhere from 2-8 to 6-4. 
    • I agree with the Farragut and Bradley claim. Those will both be wins. Bearden like you say is depending on when you get them in comparison to when the wheels fall off.  As far as West goes I’m 50-50. They have been able to reload so far so until they show me they haven’t I can’t count them out. 
    • during the 2nd round of the playoffs last year against Milan, Gray partially tore his meniscus. He had a minor repair around Thanksgiving. Recovery time was minimal and he has been full force for baseball this season. 
    • What do ya’ll think the O/U will be? I would set the line at 2.5 
    • Playing high school sports is a privilege not a right.  The college did not have to rescind the scholarship.  Scholarship offers are pulled all the time for a number of reasons. That was 100% their choice.  A coach can keep, cut, or dismiss any player that they want to without reason anytime they want.  Is that the right way to run a program?? I don't think that it is, but these are the facts of the matter. This case has absolutely 0% chance of going in the plaintiff's favor. Futhermore, I'd imagine that these administrators and the coach are a part of some teaching or coaching organization that will cover at least 1 million dollars each in legal fees. Obviously the kid and her family feel like there were "damages" thus the lawsuit.  Unfortunately, the law is not on their side in this case.
