Mr. Basketball Nominee Suggestions For 2025-26

NEGATIVE comments are not welcome nor are they affective in this thread!! We want to know who you support...

The Mr. and Miss Basketball Awards will be presented to the top girls and boys in six classifications of the Tennessee Secondary School Athletic Association in a ceremony to be held at MTSU's Tucker Theater on March 10, 2026 at 5:30 PM Central.

This group will include three finalists for Miss Basketball and three for Mr. Basketball in each classification. The winners of the coveted award are to receive the distinguished Mr. and Miss Basketball trophy with the other finalists being presented plaques.

This is a nomination ballot for the awards. Any player at any of our member schools is eligible to receive votes and I would encourage you to take a moment and give careful consideration to any player with whom you are familiar and who you think deserving of the award. You may nominate up to three players in each classification for the awards. It is not necessary to nominate three players in every category, but that is your option. Also, please take into account the statewide aspect of this award as you consider your nominations.

This is an initial nominating process only. A selection committee that will include representatives from each area of the state will meet to vote on the finalists and winner of the Mr. and Miss Basketball Award for each classification.

In order for your ballot to be counted in the selection process, it must be submitted no later than noon on FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 6.

AAA is over. No one better than Ty Cobb from Upperman.

Way to go out on a limb with that nomination. #2 player in the state rankings.

Eagleville has to have a player or two as good as they are. Jackson County’s Will McCreary has to be in the conversation for 1A.

That’s me always living on the edge! Hahaha

1A - John Hardin (Unaka)

Averaging 23.2 points and 13 rebounds per game so far. Currently as a junior has 1348 points and 708 rebounds. Will very likely hold the schools boys all time records for points and rebounds by the time he graduates.
