Powell's Prime Time Player verbally commits to UTC! Ogan looks to revitalize the post as Chattanooga loses two in the front court after the 2004-2005 campaign, Patton and Sermons! She is the third committment (Nancy Moore and Ashley Huff). Looks like another great class for the UTC Lady Mocs! Edited by HUCK

We at Mocfans.com are very excited about Erin and the others for next season. Even more excited when I found that Erin made the Blue Star Top 100 list for 04-05.

 

I love the fact that about half of the LM's are from the State or at least within a couple of hours of Chattanooga (including North Alabama and Atlanta).

 

If she does have coaching in the back of her mind, Wes is a great coach to play under...we have had two former players in the last 2 seasons go immediately into coaching...one as an assistant at Covenant College, another at GPS.

 

Great thing about Wes is that pretty much everyone gets to play...it is rare to see anyone get more than 25-28 minutes.

 

I was at practice yesterday...looks like another great season in store for the LM's...starting with a visit from the Lady Vols on the 19th. Should be a near sellout (or at least 10,000).

Congratulations Erin! You are such a great person. Good luck in all your future endeavors.

 

I have to say you guys at Powell must be doing something right. I know three of the ladies from your senior class, Erin, Lindsey Haas and Courtney Cox, and they are all such quality people. You should all be proud of a system that can turn out these type of citizens. Of course great parents helps too :lol: .

Congrats from your Claiborne County Kin. I guess granny Barbara Jo will put a few miles on her car the next five years. You got a good one down there in  former Claiborne County star Katasha Brown as well. Good Luck!!

The best thing for me (as the admin/editor of Mocfans) in recruiting lots of Tennessee players is that it is so much easier to keep up with them their senior year (we do weekly progress reports on recruits senior year). The biggest reason that it is easy is because of CoachT.com ...I am not sure if everyone knows that this is one of the best high school resources in the country (I, for one, have never seen anything like it anywhere else).

 

...Yeah, Katasha has been a "better than average" pickup for the Lady Mocs :D ...and she still has two years left!

 

The best part about having many girls come in from close to home is that so many family members can make it to games...the team is a very close group (Wes has end up not recruiting a couple players in the past because he didn't feel that they felt close to the team...it is definitely a family unit...those girls are inseparable on and off campus).

 

I know Laura Hall's parents have bought nearly 100 tickets for the Lady Mocs/Vols game...her whole family and half her church are coming.

 

USA Today poll came out this morning...Lady Mocs are 31st (best pre-season ranking ever).

Great genes and fantastic work ethic doesn't hurt either. Katasha's dad was a fantastic player in high school, and I knew that girl would be something special from the time she was about 11 and I would see her dribbling two basketballs at the same time around the subdivision while her dad would follow her in his car. Put talent and work ethic together and you separate the good ones from the great ones.

 

Erin is another good example. Her brother was an outstanding player and her dad was a small college all-american at Carson Newman in the early 70's. She has a great work ethic as well and plays BB year round, and I know her granny never misses a game, whether it be AAU, high school, or I'm sure for the Lady Mocs.

 

Good luck to the Lady Mocs you have earned your high pre-season ranking.

    • Hmmmmmm doe dee doe doe……sounds like they are leaving Geenback faster than the lawnmower will go in fifth gear.  Hmmmm….. you can bet the lawnmower on that. 
    • West looked solid...excited to see this young group excel
    • When you have a school that right at 200 kids only half are going to be male and to get 25% of them to come out for football is a very hard task. Take away an 8th grade syatem and your you have another hill to climb up. If 5 kids are actually leaving your not going to have enough for practice. Your only chances for wins would be against the weakest of weak teams. At one time Greenback had kids coming across the wall like the Mexican Border and now their leaving town before sundown. A hugh mistake was made on not hiring Ryan back because of his ties to the community and his ability to bring in the right kids, not run them off. The last coach failed because he wasn't one of community so they go out and do it again. I'm sure Coach Clemmer is a good person because I do know people that do like him but he is caught in the middle of a fan base that will not support him no matter what and it could lead to a disaster if that many kids are leaving the program. The person that caused all of this mess has no business on the school board and needs to stick with hiding in the bushes giving out speeding tickets to out of towners coming through.
    • My outsider looking in perspective is Oliver Springs, Coalfield, Rockwood, and Harriman: fill out the top 4 good teams that beat up on the bottom and will all be in a good place to win in the 1st round with one team maybe making it farther. Midway: funnily enough in the middle an alright team that can beat the teams below them but not the top 4 misses the playoffs but still has a decent record. Oakdale, Greenback, Sunbright: round out the bottom each team has its problems and with a rough region and challenging non-conference records may not be pretty. Oakdale graduated lots of talent and experience, Greenback is in all sorts of internal turmoil with their new coach, and Sunbright small roster tough region not tons of Fb played. (Teams could be rearranged with other teams in their groups but this is how I see them finishing)
    • Kids quitting to focus on one sport could be a worry but multi-sport athletes transferring out would damage more than just football so I think the people who made this decision could find out they are going to get burned in multiple ways.
