I only watched the Friday and Saturday games so I missed out on the dunk by Delk. My best dunk would have to go to Olajawon Kemp of Bolivar in the championship game because him and Chism were the only guys that I saw dunk. :D I expected a lot more dunks, especially out of White Station. I have read about how good they are all year and I thought they would have guys doing 360's and jumping out of the gym but they didn't have a single dunk while I was there. :lol::ph34r:

Well Prince is the only guy for White Station that really attempts to dunk in traffic. I think I have seen everybody for White Station dunk at one point, except Ervin and Hilgeman. Schall can dunk fairly easily as well and its amazing to see Pigram get up but he usually only does it on open breaks. The reason you didn't see any dunks was because the only people who got open lanes were Ervin and Ball (who is on a bad knee). Also, White Station usually doesn't hott dog against good teams like North Side. When they play the lower tier teams of their district and in Memphis they do pull some crazy stuff though.

Jamont Gordon's dunk wasnt all that to me. Being that he was losing by about 20 points I didnt find it exciting. Also why try to throw the ball off the backboard when your team is getting killed. I went to that game to see him play because I heard a lot about him. I knew what the Delk twins would do because I had seen them play. Gordan has some skills but doesnt seem like a team player. I was extremely disappointed in what I saw of him

I agree 100%. He played extremely selfishly. What was up with him shooting that three from almost half-court? (Missed everything, including the backboard by the way). I'm glad the coach yanked him after that.

 

And another observation, he can't dribble well at all through traffic. I can't COUNT the number of times he turned it over by trying to dribble through someone instead of looking for the open man.

i don't know what game you all went to. the dunk jamont did in which he left a delk in the corner of the court, dribbled in the middle and dunked with authority as JNS's whole team parted like the red sea. that was the best dunk by far.

 

the delk dunk was ok but the rim barely moved. maybe i was sitting to far up to enjoy it.

 

jamont shook the whole goal post. :lol:

    • Personally I was pulling for Lee Hammonds to get another shot. He’s earned it! 
    • Tyler Williams was the logical choice to be named head football. He served as the Highlanders’ strength coach and offensive coordinator.
    • I went to practice yesterday and liked what I saw for the most part. Derek and crew have done a good job during the off-season. I was very impressed with the size of some of those boys on the offensive line. My only regret was one of the boys I was really pulling for to have a good year was dismissed from the team. I have to applaud the coaches for setting examples for the others, no one is bigger than the team. One other thing, I was hoping with that big rain we got this week some of that  yellow paint would dissolve but it didn't.  
    • Couple of thoughts: 1.  I just don't understand all the intricacies in TSSAA transfer rules anymore.    William Blount had a kid that played the final part of the basketball season with them this year,  that played at Hardin Valley last year, and played football for Bearden this year.  I say that to say, I know the coaches and the AD and the Principal at WB and I will never believe they would do something they knew was wrong.  They are men of character.  I BELIEVE the same thing about the coaches and administration at Maryville.  Call me gullible, but these are men and women of integrity in my experiences with them. 2.  Much like the transfer of the Clemmer kid a couple of years ago, with Smith, the football team is getting a huge boost, but the impact on the basketball team will be just as great or maybe even greater.  With Smith playing post, it frees the Sigmund kid who will be coming back from injury, to play more with his face to the basket.  The Rebels basketball squad in my mind, will be "the program" in East Tennessee next year.
    • Could not agree more. After this year, McKenzie's new coach will have their work cut out for them. Staying in 1A would definitely be a huge plus. Most years there is not much difference in the top 5- 1A and 2A teams across the state, but after the top 5 or so there is normally a huge drop off for 1A. Regular season region play is a lot easier for 1A in West TN  right now.
