Just got through watching the master of middle school basketball show his stuff. That is Leon Tolley. Any high school looking to build a program or take theirs to the next level should come knocking at his door. Coach Tolley has built a successful program at the Hampton Middle School. Year in and year out his team is tops in the county and competes for the regional championship. They play hard and show the discipline that many of the area high school teams are lacking. So if any AD's are looking for a great addition to their program, a lot of our area teams need something, then just look up at the bulldog haven and get started on a successful program. Great job, Coach Tolley.

I don't know if you could call him the Master or not but Coach Tolley has done a great job for many years. It is funny that you never hear his name mentioned for other jobs. Maybe they know that he will not leave his beloved Hampton. Rumor has it that this year will be his last with his second child on the way. It will be a huge loss to Hampton Basketball if he does get out, but I can not see him staying away for long, if he does.

I agree totally that Coach Tolley runs one of the top programs in our area and that includes middle school and high school. He is a great teacher on the court and off. Year in and year out his teams are always well prepared and ready to play. I wish him well in whatever his future may hold on the court and off. He is a great ambassador for Hampton basketball and also Carter County basketball. He is the type of man that a person can take what he says and take it to the bank. There aren't many of those left! Congratulations to Coach Tolley and his team on their performance at Freedom Hall in the Christmas Tournament, you all represented Carter County very well over there. I hope that if he does put up the whistle that it isn't for long and I am sure that the people in Hampton feel the same way.

      And can you tell me who those two quarterbacks were, and every kid that was put into college from Bearden is a Bearden kid? It’s kind of why they graduated from Bearden.   and I would definitely not consider ETSU “waste”…

      Most of this is complete gibberish. But the one part I could decipher is putting kids in college. This coaching staff hasn’t put a single Bearden kid in college. They completed wasted one of the best WRs in East TN and have ruined two talented QBs. All because they’re in over their heads.

      Well, I’d hope the new coaching staff thinks they are all that because they can always walk around the school, anytime they want, thinking that, especially for what they’ve done for the student athletes and the players, putting more kids in college in his first season than the old coaching staff did in numerous years combined, but we will just sweep over that because I know you don’t like facts. But trust me, nobody wanted Mr. Big britches, made the star player switch to quarterback, which is ultimately the reason he ended up transferring to play the position. He loved, but unfortunately, had to be at another school because Mr. Big Britches doesn’t like when a teenager knows more than him, but can’t expect much coming from a guy who used all class throwing pencils up into the ceiling and making fun of football kids who were failing class right to their face, and in front of numerous students, even projecting on the board most of the time.

      After that first paragraph, I can see why you’re a TA and not a teacher. Have you made the move from South Knoxville to Bearden yet?    Maybe he left because he is an actual teacher and coach, and didn’t want to be associated with a group of foul mouthed middle school coaches who like to pretend they’re big time.

      Yeah and the coach is gone. Whole bizarre situation here. We played them a couple of times at MTSU last few years. She was a player for sure.
