You would take Garfiled Wilson over a Josh Caldwell or a Nick Brumback? :confused:, I watched him play he plays hard and has room to improve but hes a semior and hasnt played before this yr.

He put up 21 and 10 against Tates Creek who has some of the best athletes in the state (in state aau tourn). Also, if you saw him early in the summer compared to late in the summer there was a big difference after he got 14 or 15 games under his belt and got in a little bit of shape. He will be a major contributor for Cumberland this up coming year. He and Brumback had a heck of a battle down at aau and Brumback if you havent seen him lately is a Beast. Josh Caldwell is a good player too, but I think Brumback and Wilson come February/March 2008 will be in category a notch ahead of all other power forwards in the 13th Region.

Little bit of a Bell County bias there LMBoy. 6 of the 10 you mention Are from Bell County/ 3-BCHS, 2-Pineville, and 1-Middlesboro. you need to get out a little and find out what is going on in the 13th.

 

It isn't necessarily bias. I am a big Bell County fan, not Middlesboro or Pineville. I only mentioned 1 Bell County player. I have known him for a long time and was told he had a great showing at Blue Chips camp last week. Josh Whitaker is gone to Knox Central.

 

Also I don't live back home so I don't get to see as many 13th region games as I would like to. But all the players I mentioned, are guys I have seen this summer, with the exception of Shawnta. I also said in my post that I am sure there are other great players, but these stuck out to me as far as the ones I have seen.

Ok again Garfield Wilson can be a good player but you think he is already above Cody Miller?, you have almsot Cumberland starting five in the rankings. But from what i watched over the summer Wilson will be good after he settles down but right now i would take Miller, and Caldwell should be ahead. I watched Cawood and Cumberland play earlier in the summer. It seemed as if Caldwell wasnt 100% but he still held his own and gave Cumberland trouble. Im not sure if Cumberland played Knox Central though but the Miller kid is a match up nightmare hes a good 6'5 strong, has a good first step, and can shoot. Im sorry i just dont see how Wilson can be put above those 2, not yet anyways.

Well there is no way that there are 10 players in the region better than Cody Miller based on the 2 times I have seen him play.

Yes Cumberland played Knox Central and Cumberland gave them a 101-44 beatdown.Yes Whitaker and Warren played along with Miller and Johnson and Wilson outplayed Miller.

I think it is also important not to hang your hat on a summer game. Whitaker and Warren just started playing for Knox Central so I would not read too much into that game. It was a great statement, but no way the same thing happens again in the regular season.

Hey coach, Cumberland played Cawood in their 2nd or 3rd game of the summer, which was only the 2nd or

3rd game playing with Wilson and were clearly a little sluggish and still handled Cawood pretty easy as cawood hit a couple 3's very late to cut it to a 4 point final. As far as Caldwell hurting Cumberland, that was really not the case, Cawood had only 37 points and Rhymer got hot and had about 25 of them. As for Miller, when Cumberland played Central in the summer Cumberland was a matchup nightmare for them because Johnson can and did guard Miller very effectively. Wilson has a long way to go to get as good as he is capable of being after sitting out a year, but with 20 plus summer games under his belt and an impressive showing at the state aau games he has a good start.

Cumberland was clicking on all cylinders including some of their young talent and Central got caught in a perfect storm. It was just a summer game, but it showed what Cumberland is capable of being when they put it all together and the one thing that you always get from the Skins that Central saw that day is Defense. Central had 2 probable starters missing, but Cumberland also had one probable starter missing, both teams will be very good this year and I am sure if they ever meet again it will be a much more competitive game.

Hey Old School Dr. they dont keep fouls in summer league games :lol:, im not saying Wilson is'nt a good player what im saying is i would choose Miller and Caldwell before him right now, and if i remember Caldwell had pheumonia and still played Cumberland.

Miller and Caldwell are both good players, all I am saying is that IMO come February/march of 2008 Brumback and Wilson will be the 2 best power forwards in the 13th Region. As for Miller, I dont see him as a power forward, but more a shooting forward (a 3). And as for Caldwell, he is a power forward, but I just believe Brumback and Wilson will be better this year, then Josh could be the best pf in the 13th next year.

Miller, in my opinion, is the best prospect in the region with his size and skills.

You would take Miller over Crawford?

As a prospect it would definitly be close. I really like Miller's game and his potential.

Frow what I hear Miller has a couple of D1 schools looking at him right now.
