I heard Beech did dominate. Understand yall had a bunch of kids out. I believe Beech was pretty much full strength. Heard the Bucs had their way both running and throwing. As a Beech fan I'm pleasantly surprised. Always good to measure up against HC even if you are playing their jv.

Beech's ground game should be one of the best in the state regardless of class this year. Crabtree knows how to pound the rock and since he took over has changed the way Beech plays and is perceived.

Henry County, Milan, and Westview all are in it I believe.

 

HC and Milan have been the two mainstays. Can't remember if they've been in it every year, but Westview and Dresden have been frequent participants. I think South Gibson and Obion County made their first appearances last year. The last couple of years we've had a couple of Kentucky schools involved. McCracken County (Paducah) last year and Murray High the last two years I believe.

 

I'd like to see Union City join in on the fun, but I think they usually go to the one in Huntingdon.

We did have a bunch out this spring, but still an impressive showing by the Bucs. HC still has a way to go.

The game is almost a year away but I can't wait to go back to Paris. It reminds me a lot of Gallatin back in the 80's. Huge crowd support and great fans. Gallatin should be pretty good and I know they will have quite a game in Henry Co. Two places that in my opinion that love the game and have a fantastic atmosphere are Henry Co and Trousdale Co. Very glad the schedule worked out this go around.

I looooooooooooooooooooove going to Paris for a game.  The atmosphere is second to none.  Tail gating and rabid knowledgeable fans (Drewphus, OldDevil, MSURacer, Swarm and the Prez).  Jumbo tron and college level band.  The games have a carnival feel to them.  The Jackets haven't had  good luck there in recent history.  We have played the Pats better when they come to our house.  Wouldn't mine seeing this one myself

Thanks for the kind words.

 

You may notice a few changes in the venue since your last visit.  I'll enumerate the major changes.

 

1  It's indoors and the roof spins every time we score

2  The facility is stored underground and rises to ground level 1 hour before kickoff

3  The field tilts 2.5 degrees uphill to whichever end zone we are protecting

4  Turf is hybrid bentgrass and all opponents are required to wear canvas Converse shoes, the kind with the star on the ankle.  We will provide rentals for any player unable to bring their own

5  The home side bleachers withdraw back into the ground in case of inclement weather

6  New lounge for officials has 3 restaurants, automatic tellers, and an IMAX screen with certain movies available

7  Free train horns for all season ticket holders (may not be taken from the premises)

8  The above mentioned footwear can be purchased at the following link for those wishing to plan ahead:  http://www.ebay.com/bhp/converse-tennis-shoes

9  Toilet facilities available for certain games

I'm good for color commentary only and have no business on that list of knowledgables.

Hey Facts..... Long time no troll. I remember a conversation we had 3 years ago when Peabody hired Joe Gaddis. You made the comment that Peabody would win 3 of the next 5 from Milan. Well since then we have won 2 of 3 and if we win this year your "prediction" will not come true. Thoughts three years later??

I have 2 thoughts (the most in a long time)

 

1  I have no recollection of such a comment but am flattered it left such an impression

3  The referees won the 2012 game, not Milan

4  Had Gaddis stayed, I'd say Peabody takes 4 of 5

5  Silly of me to think he'd stay 5 years

2  And my second thought . . . I wish I had your memory

We had a very back and forth heated conversation, that's why I remembered it.

 

But I have two thoughts as well....

 

1. You said the refs won 2012, but the scoreboard and the record books say otherwise. (Fact)

 

2. Had Gaddis stayed we would have won 5 of 5. Gaddis was a good coach. Woods was better (Fact)

 

But watch, now that I have said all this trenton will end up winning the next 2 and you will be right. lol!!!

    • He resigned smh, and have you ever heard of charged but not convicted. Some people in this county baffle me with their need to slander others. Have you asked any of the 30+ parents that signed a petition to get him reinstated at the board meeting this week how they feel about this? Just let it play out, at the end of the day the only people that will bring TC back are the ones that know what its about at its core.    People hate losing and they aren't used to it at TC. I for 1, and I'm sure others too, understand having a dip in talent and not being able to compete for a state title every year. But in the past, TC teams have outworked more talented teams, they didn't continuously lose the turnover battle, they didn't commit 8+ penalties in several games each season, and I believe several of the folks in town that want Blake out feel as if he is neglecting the history of the program. This is from a source that used to be extremely close to the program (not me lol), Blake gets out of school midday and the players show up and there is no practice plan or itinerary.  I also understand those that are on team Blake, when he has loads of talent, he wins. He does know football and he is a tremendous DC, and if the rumors are true then he will do great things. As for the board member issue, it is what it is, everyone that's true to the county know that and nothing has changed. I agree though that they should strive to make the facilities as good as we can. And as far as potential candidates, I agree there is very few options. West, Vetetoe (yes I know), and couple others that could have some interest. Whatever happens is massive for the program during a pivotal time before the next big wave of stars make their way through. 
    • McKenzie had no trouble with Huntingdon.  
    • Has BA landed any cornfed cowboys to block up front?
    • Yea I agree I will say tho I was a big “ v “ fan if an  opening ever did happen I think it would’ve been good to see him have a shot coming from a power house like Oakland. I’m sure he’s learned a lot from Kevin.  I bet he would bring a really good offense scheme IMO But after all this I just dunno anymore.  Whatever happens with the rumors an such if it did come to and opening I think this messes it all up.  The board members dreams are slowly slipping away now. I haven’t lived there for awhile I just hear what I hear, but my question is would there be any good potential candidates?? That’s why I don’t understand why people want b s out so bad who else could do any better ?? IMO there’s nothing attractive about it? As I stated earlier I went to the last game last year and taking a leak in a porta Potty is pretty sad and still nothing being done they say .. 
    • I have a sophomore that can do 177 (preferred) or 192. Sent you an email.
