The Redhounds are on a mission. I don’t see a scenario where Whitley can pull an upset. They were down 43-4 at one point against South. I know things happen but that was just crazy. They are definitely not as bad as they were that game. They do have a couple good freshman. They are good players but they cant overcome corbin’s freshman. I think Akins is the best player in the area. Corbin has some seniors who are playing well and not mention Eli Pietrowski averaging a double double.

50-27 Corbin at the half.
Corbin jumped out 18-2 to start the game. Corbin doing whatever the hell they want.

Corbin could’ve won by 30 or 40. Corbin let up big time in the second half. Not sure why. Akins only took 3 shots in the 2nd half and tony p jumped his case at least twice for not going and getting the ball. Akins needs to be dialed in for both big games and perceived not so big games for corbin down the stretch. Middleton is really coming on strong. He is becoming a reliable offensive threat for the hounds. Eli continues to be a solid rebounder and great passer from the post. Farmer did some good things. I expected more from whitley. They have never been able to compete at a high level. Whitley is a good sized school. Last region appearance was 2010 under chris baker. They have been to like 3 or 4 region tourneys in 50 years if im not mistaken. Cant recall who was on that last region team. If and when the 6’6” kid and ellis get eligible will be the moment i pick corbin to cut down the 13th region nets. If you can get those youngins to buy in and continue to share they are the favorite in my humble opinion. They have multiple guys who can give you 20 or 25. They also play hard and are able to out physical any team in the 13th region.

Tony mentioned Ellis and the big GA kid on his post-game show. Said he looks forward to them getting some game action. Corbin literally has 7 kids who could conceivably get you 20 points on a given night---Akins, Ellis, Blackburn, Middleton, Brittain , Farmer, Pietrowski. They are very balanced. Corbin's problem---they lose focus. Sometimes they will get after you, sometimes(like in the second half last night) they let up. You can't let up and lose focus in the regional tournament.
