I just spoke with Saulsberry , he said that they will be just as big upfront

This is true. We will have the size. Will they be dawgs is the real question.

 

The next big question will be, who will play QB.

 

That will be the biggest question. Along with, who will be are other LBs to play alongside #20.

 

Now that I think about it, Deniro and Jabril will have to be replaced as well. However, we are pretty deep in the defensive backfield. That group will be fighting to see who gets on the field.

 

This will be interesting.

Next year the region changes. Whitehaven will be in Region 8 next year. The region will only have four (4) teams. As follows:

 

1) Whitehaven

2) White Station

3) Central

4) Germantown

 

That means we will only have 3 region games. Throw in the annual Whitehaven Classic (Mitchell). The annual non-region game against Ridgeway and the annual non-region travel game, that makes six (6) games. We will need four more games to complete the schedule.

 

I can see taking East off of the scrimmage schedule and adding them to the regular season schedule. That would be seven (7) games. I can see us playing against Southwind. That would make eight (8).

 

We will probably keep MUS & Trezevant on the scrimmage schedule, and if it were up to me, I'd add Lausanne to the scrimmage schedule. We can rule out adding any of the local D2 teams to the regular season either. For reasons I don't want to get into, I just don't see that happening. I feel pretty confident that we will not play any of the Region 7, 6A teams either; which are Houston, Arlington, Bartlett, Cordova, and Collierville.

 

So, who would you guys like to see as the other two teams on the regular season schedule?

 

Wooddale? Kirby? Melrose? Raleigh-Egypt? Kinsbury? South Panola? Olive Branch? Madison, MS?

 

Who?

South Panola or Olive Branch. No need to waste time playing the others (no offense). I don't know much about Madison, MS. Southaven would be a good option as well.

We need to stop playing Ridgeway

That's foolish talk. You know how much money that game generates? Also, the City teams need to ALWAYS support each other whenever possible. Playing Ridgeway is a win-win for both programs. If for no other reason, it is always a marquee game. It is must see high school football. We would be doing each other a diservice if didn't play that game.

Sutton's inability to coach makes that game nothing more than a money grab that plays no dividends come playoff Time. Time to play a big division school in the tri-state area, specifically MS. But AR would not be a bad bet or someone from West TN with a nice fan base. I'd rather roll back to St.Louis

    • Agree. The man literally sacrificed time, moments, memories you can't get back with his own family for every single athlete at that school. (and many others) To those that continue to be negative about him and continue to bring him up; He's been loyal, hardworking and just his entire coaching career. Ask anyone that actually has a leg to stand on in regard to Coach.
    • Egotistical? That's a new one.  It's funny, I'm friends with two of the younger coaches that he "ran off" as you say. In fact, he helped them find jobs, encouraged them to do what was best for their growing families, provided advice, support and still does to this day.

    • Track has always been big at OR. Ran off about 7 straight titles in the 60s. Your hate for Gaddis runs deep, huh? What did he ever do to you, to make you disdain him that much? You can’t seem to stop talking about the guy. He’s living rent free in your head. Might wanna get that checked out, you don’t wanna go to the grave with that on your heart.
    • This late in the year, you’d have to think they’d go with an Asst. on staff, right? I’m pretty new to the area so still learning how folks do things around here…if Woods stays there to teach, it could be hard on a new guy/staff coming in…
