So does Wayne County and Fairview scrimmage this year as someone mentioned?

 

I hope so. I met some Wayne County faithful at the Nashville Christian game last fall. Good folks.

Unless it changes WC will be playing in Fairviews jamboree but don't have a clue as to how many teams are in it or who's playing who

I think we play Fairview in the Hickman County jamboree on August 12th,

according to the current schedule.

That makes sense. Fairview isn't hosting a jamboree to my knowledge.

I believe this Fairview team is going to be a solid 3A quarterfinals type team. And WC is obviously favored to win it all in 1A. Should be a great battle test for each squad prior to the games that mean something.

How about a little scouting report on our boys from your point of view, backs and line

How about a little scouting report on our boys from your point of view, backs and line

The line is coming together really nicely and we are in better shape at this point than we was this time last yr, which is a great thing! Looking like we will have 3 guy's starting that started on last yrs team. Also looks like 6 out of our top 7 O linemen will be Seniors (the 1 exception being your boy, starting at RT). Also their is loads of competition between the RG and LT spot right now with Lowe, Sinclair, Groves & Pyle!!

 

Our backs...well they are STACKED!! It's insane, I thought losing #4 & #7 would kill us and it will hurt alot but we got backs galore!! Like we will have some on the sidelines 3rd string that would be starting on 3/4s of other 1A schools! I'll start with this...we will go in the spread some, prob alot...with 4 wide. When we do you will most likely see guys like, Davis, Mathis, Bevis, Harris, Hatcher, Devers, the list goes on...but they will be split out with guys like Birchett, Ruddle, Hill, Nutt & Prince lined up alongside Rice in the backfield! Talk about some skill players!! We have 4 guys running legit times between 4.6-4.7! And look for Preston Ray, who didn't play last yr to make his presence known at the MLB spot!!

 

We got 61 players and ALOT of competition!

 

That's all I want to say on here...talk more in person. Can't give all our info out on the T! Lol

Great report, but I would like to mention another sophomore lineman that's worked really hard that I think will make an impact and that's Corey Mathis, 6'3 and about 255. I was beginning to think I was going to have to argue our backs speed by myself, glad you noticed it too!

Yes I totally agree about Mathis he is going to be really good and just 10th grader! Your boy and him will anchor the lines for the next few years. But I was told he was going to play on the Def line this yr.

61 players in 1A?? Wow must be nice. Much respect for Wayne Co. Great fans, and the kids had great sportsmanship when we played each other. Good luck!

Yeah we have had 45 or more players on the team since around 2006. We had 64 couple yrs back and avg around 54-55. And our enrollment is only 320 kids!

 

Thanks for the compliment Mike, we take great pride in playing the game the right way and show sportsmanship no matter if we Win or lose! Coach Rice and Coach Crews have ALOT to do with that. They are great coaches who have been in WC for 30 years and work well with kids.

    • Ouch! If he's in the scrap business maybe 
    • That's a nice story but has little to nothing to do with what we're talking about. 
    • The winds of change are blowing in Hartsville.     Will be an interesting follow.    Would go back to the 90s and turn black the clock!
    • Did he promise you a coordinator job or something if he ever got a head coaching job? He resigned? He was at the top of the dugout last night calling plays. I wonder if those 30+ parents would let him give their kids a ride. by the way the board meeting was last night and it was not mentioned. must have been at the work session earlier this week which is not public. must be trying to keep it quiet.  Since you know so much, how much is Robbie Atwood willing to pay Adam Cothron?  Didn't you slander Eden earlier on here? You also didn't know he was a faculty coach again so how much do you really know? Some people outside this county baffle me with their need to slander others.    
    • 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.
