grizzly55 Posted March 28, 2003 Report Share Posted March 28, 2003 i disagree about the eight grade class because they only played people in and around nashville or middle tennessee, you can't say that they are the best in the state even though there is a good chance they are.

DS2001 Posted March 29, 2003 Report Share Posted March 29, 2003 I understand that coach Pitts has recruited three kids and has them currently redshirting at Holly Tree Child Care. Word is they will be tearing the rims down at the mighty BA in about 9 years! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

takedown3 Posted March 29, 2003 Report Share Posted March 29, 2003 There is a rumor in Chattanooga that BA is attempting in vitro recruiting. Ronnie Carter has polled the board of control who has decided that it's OK only if they have written permission from Yao and Shaq, the suspected doners. It's understood that Vanderbilt is participating. The Williams sisters have been contacted to determine if, in fact, they even like basketball and if they will participate. We understand McCallie and Baylor are talking with The Rock and Tonya Harding to explore their interest in Tennessee High School wrestling. Stay tuned...............

clay9 Posted March 29, 2003 Author Report Share Posted March 29, 2003 Hey, make sure you know what you are talking about when saying they only played teams in Nashville. They went over to Chattanooga and played Science Hill's 8th grade (and beat them by 25) and another top team out of that area and won by 35. Also, White County (I know they are in Middle Tenn.), lost to BA by 11. White County's coach said that was the best team they had ever had and he thought no one would come close to them. So if you know someone in the state better than them let me know. Then I will agree with you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoachBlue Posted March 30, 2003 Report Share Posted March 30, 2003 if i had some good marks to give out, it would defiantly go to AGGSL. He nailed it on the head with that one about the attitude of BA. [Edited by CoachBlue on 3-30-03 6:12P] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He nailed it on the head with that one about the cockiness of BA. CoachBlue, I see your allegation of cockiness, yet I see no BA fan on this board being disrespectfully cocky. It is not wrong to assert that BA has a chance to win state in the coming years, and I see it done in a respectful manner. Yes, the initiator of this thread is a bit too fervent about BA's future ventures, but every school will have those fans who take it too far occasionally. I'd appreciate my school getting a little respect. [Edited by WesVols on 3-30-03 12:32P] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AGGSL Posted March 30, 2003 Report Share Posted March 30, 2003 WesViols and Coachblue My comment was not necessarily about the cockineess of BA; it was about the silliness of assuming your team (no matter the team) will win it all over the next several years. From 8th grade to juniors and seniors is a huge change and I suspect several of those kids will not be near as good as they mature. Many 8th graders are good at that level because they have matured earlier. To assume that they will naturally be as good as juniors and seniors is not realistic. Besides, if you bother to look around the state, there are a number of teams who were young this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WesVLT Posted March 30, 2003 Report Share Posted March 30, 2003 AGGSL, I completely agree that it is silly to automatically assume that a team will take the next 4 titles. In fact, it is ludicrous. But you must remember that the only person to make this assumption was 1 BA fan. That's all. Not a player, coach, or parent. 1 fan. So don't judge a school by a single fan.
