Who is going deep into the playoffs this year? This is who I have:

 

1) Sevier Co - loaded
2) Powell - always good
3) Page - they lost a lot
4) Henry Co - rebound year
5) Shelbyville

 

Who am I missing? Who am I pumping too much? Biggest surprise team this year?

Definitely Powell and SC. They are basically on a collision course to meet late in the playoffs. Powell had ‘em beat last year and had a colossal meltdown late in the 4th.

Do both teams have a lot coming back, or are they just reloading?

I think both have quite a bit returning. Seems like SC was a fairly young squad last season.

Nobody's talking Knox West, is that because of the coaching circus going on?

I think so.

If they bring Brown back they are in the conversation. Only other way I see them as contenders would be to convince Cummings to leave Halls and take over. I don’t see that happening. Regrouping and recovering this year with an interim coach if they lose Brown. 

Don’t sleep on the Red Devils though! Halls might have it this year.

Ghost of 1986??           I remember that 86 playoff game against DB, they played in the ETSU mini-dome.  DB had a really good team that year but Halls was on another level.

Halls will be at best 3rd in the region if they can beat central

Beech is definitely in the top five.

Page lost a lot but they did get some off-season transfers who can be help for them on offense.

Shelbyville is 6A.

Page, Beech, Henry Co in the west. In the east - Sevier, Powell, Maybe Tullahoma/ Lincoln or Walker Valley as sleepers.

They picked up 2 good ones from us who were solid in 2A. We'll see what they look like in 5A but our 2024 transfer was a handful for DII-AA and a playmaker for BGA.
