B. Wright without a doubt. This guy is awesome. It was a treat to see him and Birdman in the same game. :justwrestle:

Brandon Wright is one of the best players in the state. Not just Sophmores.

[cdm2003]

John Crenshaw from McGavock should be up there somewhere, he's not the best but he's in the top ten for sure.

Brandon Right for sure, I played with him for 2 years and he is unbelievable. He will be getting scholarship offers from every big school by the time he is a senior. He could be one of the best to come out of the city for a while. He is only going to get better.

Gomab...you're joking, right??

It's Be Right.

 

The kid is phenomenal. Thaddeous Young is a great player, and I think he might be a better all around player than Brandon Wright by the time he is a senior because:

 

1-Plays better competetion

2-Plays every position (i.e. brings the ball down the court, shoots 3's,etc)

 

I think Brandon Wright is phenomenal, when we played him a couple weeks ago he had 3 or 4 blocks on the first posession! When he is a senior he will be the best sophomore in the state, he might not be the most well rounded (heck what 7 footers are!) but he is a great player, and the sky is the limit for that kid.

I don't know who can play in middle tn, but the best sophomore in the knoxville area is Lee Smith from Powell. He used to play for Central, but he had to move for family reasons. I am glad to see that he is doing well.

Gomab,

 

Where exactly do you think sophomores T. Smith and K. Rose from Humboldt land on the radar? Obviously, they shouldn't be on this very elite list, but do they deserve a mention?

Put White County's John Gribble on the list and I'll vote for him.

Brandon Wright received more hype than anyone on this list. I have only seen him play once and he is a tremendous talent. What seperates Thad Young is his ability to play all positions. Depending on the opposing defense Young will play anywhere on the court. When we played Nat. ranked Lauringburg Acad. from Nor. Car. , because of their tall guards, Thad was moved to the point, where he scored 28 points and 11 assts. Against Hillcrest he was moved to the Shooting Guard position where he went 4-4 on 3's. We will find out the next two years when they go head to head. As Mitchell's AD, I have been in conversation with B.A. AD coach Pratt and the games should be finalized by May.

Coach Flatt, you mean.

 

Brandon Wright can play every position, too...he just doesn't because Coach Pitts doesn't believe in a one-man show. Brandon knows his role and does it very well, but that doesn't mean he couldn't perform other jobs if necessary. I remember Gomab writing in the summer that Brandon once played PG for his AAU team and was extremely effective. He has unlimited shooting range and superb ball-handling skills, giving him the ability to play anywhere on the court.

 

My vote goes to Mr. Wright.
