Titans' Dockery to sign with King

Twin Springs senior basketball player Mark Dockery announced Wednesday that he would sign a national letter of intent Friday to continue his playing career at King College in Bristol, Tenn. Dockery, a 6-foot-5 wing player, scored more than 1,600 points during his career that featured 75 wins over four seasons at Twin Springs. He averaged 19.2 points and 8.8 rebounds per game as a senior for head coach John McCrary's Titans. He made three trips to the state final four during his career.

I agree. The basketball at Emory is a joke. It's not basketball it's Johnsonball.

pitts must be making a lot of money at king. it appears to me that king college (although it's college basketball) is somewhat a step down from the high school jobs he's had in the past. i know he's a great coach though.

They are suppose to be going Division II, Division II is a step up from Science Hill and Brentwood, but I see what your saying right now at an NAIA school it would look like a step down. I think Pitts came on the idea of King going Division II NCAA.

In what time frame??? Most of the E&H ball I've seen is run-'em-in-and-run'em-out. I don't see how anyone can get into any kind of rhythm with the way Johnson plays them. I think King is a good fit for Mark and hope he really lights it up there.
