Earle is the best no doubt. Think they start playing Monday night. Lighthouse is probably 2 and the rest we will have to wait until after Xmas to see who all pans out after football injuries heal and BB shape takes place

No.... Earle had a bye in week one of the playoffs. They should be at full strength for this time of year. I think GB is the only football player who plays basketball and he normally doesn't start playing hoops until after Xmas.

In your opinions what site or paper would have the most accurate ranking for basketball. Since there is no hootens where would be the best place to go to get a top 10 or 20?

Once everybody has enough games, MaxPreps will have rankings on their site. It's all computer-generated, based on W/L, margin of victory, and strength of schedule (I think). It has its flaws, but it's generally pretty good and I find it interesting to look at, at least.

Here's my top 10 with the caveat that some of these teams haven't played many games yet.

1. Clarendon
2. Marked Tree
3. Earle
4. White County Central
5. Mountain Pine
6. Parkers Chapel
7. Quitman
8. Blevins
9. EPC
10. Marmaduke

old.dole

I looked on max preps and it had teams ranked based on what looked like wins and losses but probably just because there are still teams with only a few games

Mr. Trill

The newspaper is the best bet to find actual good rankings

I like this top 10 but I do feel WCC is ranked a little high. I would say the same about Mountain Pine but they are looking pretty good. Still maybe a little high for right now

Ctucker

I think Blevins is to high!

Ctucker

Blevins lost to lavaca last year in state lavaca come in 4th in our region they got beat pretty in our region.

Ba$ketballFan54321

Yeah I debated about putting White County that high but they do have a strong resume so far. They're a well-coached bunch.

And Mountain Pine isn't a household name but they've been playing great ball. Same for Blevins. Maybe their schedule hasn't been as strong but they've been winning pretty easily. There's something to be said for that. Both teams have their core back from last year and I'm not surprised to see them building on last year's success.

Bearden_Bear72

Head coach of PC is close family to me so I will be attending PC games this year and they have the pieces to make a playoff team.  I watched them in Fordyce Tourn championship against bearden and it was a great game!  I really thought Parker's Chapel players had good basketball knowledge and chemistry was great in half court passing.  Need to handle pressure a little better.  Bearden was the more athletic team and that why they stayed in game.  From what I saw they just wanted to drive to goal and try to draw a foul even if they had no chance to make shot.  Very wild and un-unorganized but coach Hammonds knows his game and his players, he will have that straitened out by mid season.  They were also missing a big player on their team

Bearden_Bear72

I don't know much about different teams apart from how far they made it last year so I won't make a top ten.  I'll just say that both PC and Bearden eventually can make some noise

Did Blevins get some move ins if not I think there ranked to high. WCC has 4 returning starters and 6-7 boy come back home from Riverview then we got 3 that moved up from district championships so why would Blevins think they should be ranked above WCC! Besides that Earle is number 1 until somebody mocks them of that spot. Here is my top seven right now! 1Earle 2Marktree3 PC or Bearden 5 WCC 6Clarendon 7 lavaca

Marked tree beat Earle by 20...and the Earle posters(before they went into hiding) claimed the football team wouldn't help much this year?

And Blevins returned the whole team I believe

Ba$ketballFan54321

Yeah I was gonna say... Marked Tree has already beat Earle. But I do think that they're both right there at the top. And yes I think Blevins has everybody back.
Who does Lavaca have back? Is this year's team supposed to be as good as last year?

Lavaca brought back 5 as well....and has a decent bench from what I'm hearing

Off to a slow start so far this year. Somehow dropped in to the last place game in their own tournament last week, and one of their two best players (Eck) has been battling an ankle injury (has taken him out of two games so far this year, and the coach is sitting him until it heals better). Lavaca should be fine come Jan/Feb, and it doesn't hurt that their conference/district is weak. So they should be able to make Regionals and State fairly easily...

Ctucker

I think if y'all look at last year and you will see that Earle lost a few early. But I promise you they will be ready at state. And I'm glad Blevins has everybody back from a team that really wasn't that good.But I look for lavaca to make a run when they get everybody healthy.

Oh I have no doubt that Earle will be ready for state. And Lavaca should be fine as well. Not sure how you can say Blevins "really wasn't that good" though. Compared to who? They won 20 games and made state so they must have been beating somebody haha

Ctucker

I would say compared to Earle,Marktree,WCC,Bearden and Clarendon!

Haha okay well of course, I can't really argue with that! I had all of those teams (except Bearden) ranked at the top of my top 10 that I posted earlier. Blevins isn't quite in that tier of teams.

There is to many of y'all Basketballfans

PapaHog

My take on Blevins remains the same. They are a good team, but not a title contender. I think that's where he's going. They are beatable.

Let Lavaca Or WCC play Blevins, Dub for Blevins. Let the game talk not your blabbering mouth.

Ctucker

I'm sure we would play them anytime your the one that started the mouthing!

It wasn't good for Blevins? It was like a 9 point game. Yeah Blevins has everyone back and they are way better than last year. Exactly you have your opinion I have mine.

So I guess you think we are not better than last year. We played all summer and practice all the time!

Not sure if Earle would have beat ECS the 3A state champions lasy year just saying they had a deep team as well. Guy from the 1A is also a tough team.
They would have beaten ECS, Earle beat ECS at Harrison in the 2016 Lendel Thomas Classic

In addition to the obvious joke at the top, it'd be hard to include Lavaca in the top 10 right now (and I'm a Lavaca fan). Definitely not  playing too well as of late, but they should in good shape by January.
