Back to the Classic...

 

I've been surfing around the net, reading about all the non-local teams. Yea, the team from Philly is awesome, but who else do you all feel will contend for the title? The team from East Toronto, Ontario Canada sounds like some kind of semi-pro team. Talk about recruiting, they make additions and drop kids like an AAU team in a major metro area. I guess I don't understand the whole "high school" sports thing anymore. I must be old. I have them as the "underdogs" to win the thing.

I figured everyone would know who Myles was. He was the real deal. Central probably won't be getting into the Arby's anytime soon, we went to Florida one year instead of going to the Arby's and from what I heard Burns hasn't let us in since. I really would have liked to seen how we would have fared last year. I wish they would let us back in, but it's not our decision.

I have a quick question.  Why is the defending champions of Bradley Central not in this year's tourny to defend their championship?  Just because they lose a few important players doesn't mean they should not be back.  I sure hope it wasn't because they weren't invited because that would be a sad thing to do to not invite the defending champions back.  I am willing to bet that Coach Smith would not turn down another chance to play in the Arby's Classic so I am thinking it had to be because of no invite.  Whats the deal with that?

They were not contacted about playing this year. When Coach Smith contacted them he didn't get a return call for two weeks and they told him the field was full. Bradley Central was not happy about this. They are playing in the Huntsville Times Classic in Huntsville, AL. Very good tourney, probably the best in Alabama but still not the Arby's Classic.

That means whoever wins this touney will not be the true champs because they will have not beaten the true defending champs this is very wrong and bad for basketball. also they had a chance for a Bradley vs jackson northside matchup  they would have had 1000s of people attend.

Well Bradley isnt a small school we have i blieve 1500 or 1600 students . And yea i know alot of people will be at the arbys. anyways all i am saying is that it would have been nice to see bradley play northside again plus bradley would have brought alot of people there to watch the game.

As far as being as good as last year i not sure all i know is that we are 10-0 as of right now and just beat the defending georgia 4a champs soo... i guess we will see what happens but i got a very good feeling about this team.

    • Trust me, and I am speaking for everyone in West Tennessee. Based on what you just said, I know for a fact you never watched this kid play in person.
    • Coaches,   I hope that this note finds you all doing well.  I know many of you have or are working on your schedules for next season.  I wanted to pass along information for the 2025 CBHS Duals.   We still have a few spots available for the dual and are looking for teams to help fill them.   This year we are shifting the events back to the CBHS campus and back to our traditional weekend of the third weekend in January, the 18th to be precise.    If you would like to reserve one of the spots in the CBHS Duals please reach out and let me know.  Similarly, if you plan to send a squad for the JV event then let me know.  You do not have to attend both events, but our hope is larger programs will take the opportunity to get their full squad on the mat.   We plan to accept 12 teams for the duals this year with the shift back to our high school campus.  Even if you have previously discussed attending with Coach Harrison, please confirm with me via e-mail.   Please don't hesitate to reach out if you have any questions.  Those of you that know me and our events know I take great care in running excellent events and this weekend's activities will continue that trend.   Thanks, Garrett House Coach - Wave Wrestling Club Tournament Director - CBHS Duals / JV Clash (c) 901-289-3795 garrett.house@gmail.com
    • Georgia commit DL Stephon Shivers announces he will leave Humboldt High School in Memphis to attend Brentwood Academy High School in Nashville for his senior year. Good move for the kid. Himboldt was awful, and somehow getting worse with all their players leaving for other high schools in Memphis. A very underrated prospect moves very fast for his size, and his releases off the line are insane. A very good pick-up for Brentwood Academy.
    • Great post and on point about the LB's. I would look to see Mason Batten get alot of reps and fill one of the LB's spots. Defensive and offensive line should be very good.  On the offensive side, Tate Surber has weapons all around him.  Backfield could see a mixture of RB's but I would anticipate Timmy Airline and Colt Norden getting the majority of the totes.  Norden will also be a big threat down the field in the passing game along with Cole Brown, Jacobi Melton, and Martez Teague.  Jacobi Melton is probably the fastest kid on the team. He can flat move.   As far as the offensive strategy, the weapons are for sure there to run that 4/5 wide no huddle.  But, do we have the depth to run a fast pace, no huddle and keep kids fresh for four quarters?  Time will tell.  One thing is for sure, the pieces are there to make a deep run, but we don't want to put the cart before the horse. 
    • McKenzie has to replace some very good players on defense especially @ linebacker. I am hearing the roster numbers are way up so far this year . A couple players from the 2022 team are back out for their senior year I  heard. Hearing the main offensive philosophy  maybe  moving toward a no huddle 4/5 WR and very fast paced. After exceeding  expectations last year and even holding their own in the championship game with what this team has back they  should be deep into the playoffs again this year. The defensive side of the ball is what I will be paying close attention too. I thought down the stretch last year, their defense was what really carried them through the playoffs.
