Well, its that time of year again.  I really enjoy the summer camps.  This year, we will be hosting a play date on the 4th which will include Hampton, Unaka, and johnson county.  I think hampton is hosting one on the 5th.  5 freshmen will join the lady landers this year.  We will have 2 seniors, 8 juniors, and 3 sophomores.  Gonna be a new look for us this year.  This group is pretty dang good.  Unaka will be the new favorite in R1a.  They got a really good transfer who has an NIL deal.  And NG has most of their starters back.

We are waiting for Blair to be released from an acl tear back in February.  She will make our team competitive for the region as she and our 6 foot post will account for a lot of points.  The lady Hig

Lady landers 69 happy valley 17.  We play west ridge tomorrow at Hampton.  9 different girls scored and sophomore sensation makinna shell had 18.  Unaka is a different animal now that they have nil holder Michelle shields.  They're now a contender

King, Cloudland Hampton or Unaka isn’t very good. NG will win it again. 

Can't go by summer ball.  Hampton looked bad last summer but wound up winning the district.  They will win that district again this year.  I think CD and SG lost quite a bit.

Got one more camp at tuscullum.  My analysis so far. NG is the front runner in R1. They looked pretty strong at their camp.  We were shorthanded no excuse.  We were without our 6 foot post and point guard but it was a good opportunity for the twins and yesterday they did a good job.  Unaka is going to be ok when they start gelling with the transfers.  I think it's going to be a tight district.  We'll have to get a lot tougher to compete with NG.  Their kids are tougher than ours right now.  We're going to be working hard to change that by 2025.  Spring ball shows what needs to be worked on.  Coach is not going soft on anyone and practices will be tougher than last year.

Got a major question you may or may not know the answer but why is the shields girl at unaka I thought she was a cyclone 

She was a cyclone lol.  I've known about it since January.  I don't have a definitive answer why, only speculation.  She's a great player but it probably won't change things in our district.  The way coach Buchanan develops a team is gonna make it a tall order to knock them off.  His starting 5 is as experienced as they come and he has bodies now.  Lady Landers are having to grow up fast.  They don't have that McKinney, christman, Turbyfill security blanket anymore.  This has been a tough camp for us.  We were embarrassed by Greenville on Wednesday.  We played better yesterday.

This is Coach Dotson at Wise Central, we try to play NE Tennessee teams when we can, always enjoy the competition. I read this forum from time to time to during the season to read about teams that we are playing that season. I just realized I had an old subsription to this forum from about 10 years ago and it still works. KING, were you at Gate City the day we played Cloudland?  It was a close game throughout, and we had a little surge at the end to win by a few. Coach Birchfield has a quality program, much respect for what he does. I didn't have my senior all state PG that day, but my freshman PG had a big day scoring-wise for us.  I wish we were a little bit closer and could play Cloudland during the regular season.  We played Hampton the next day with all our kids (minus a couple recovering from ACL tears in the spring, one a potential starter or 6th man). I'm not sure if either Cloudland or Hampton were at full strength, but the game with Hampton wasn't as close as the Cloudland game.  Hampton has a lot of pieces though and will be a good team.

      TSSAA meeting tomorrow

      By RocketTop · Posted

      Players and parents and coaches and administrators love uncertainty and vagueness. Hard to believe they could make the situation worse, but it seems they managed to do exactly that. So as you said we either have a one time transfer (wink, wink) or there's about to be a ton of teed off players and parents and coaches and administrators.

      They are going to have to learn to score to win it. They may well do it but there problem has been scoring consistently. Glass House causes that to happen to most teams.

      2A Summer Ball

      By pioneer42 · Posted

      We will see. I can't ever remember a year when it was this wide open. I am always a Gibson County homer but I love the makeup of our team this year. Got four guards and 3 of them have been point guards. We will play fast and aggressive on both ends and if we handle the ball like I think we will we will be very competitive to the buzzer sounds. Got two really good post players. There is no dominant team. Huntingdon will be a handful and a team I wouldn't want to have to play in a do or die game. Loretto is going to be balanced as well. York, Westview, Gatlinburg Pittman, Union City, Summertown, Smith County will be in the mix. Memphis Business Academy might the the best team in the state talent wise. Decatur County, JCM, Liberty and Adamsville's District will be tough as well. Very balanced AA and I may have missed some but it is wide open.
