Ready for Spring practice. 5A was tough for me to do because of all the classification movement. Here is my best shot right now

 

1. Catholic

2. Rhea County

3. Fulton

4. Hillsboro

5. Central

6. Beech

7. Oak Ridge

8. Halls

9. South Doyle

10. Page

 

Thoughts?

I'd have to Put Henry Co in over Page.. I think Hillsboro may be too high with an entirely new coaching staff but they will be talented. Ridgeway is back in 5A too I believe so they should be in the top 10.. Shelbyville & Gallatin could sneak in there as well

As far as ET teams Rhea Co always tough .. system is tough to defend  .. Catholic, Fulton and Central have question to be answered .. I think Oak Ridge would be above Central ( Central lost alot of talent 2 good linemen, QB, Tough RB, 2 WR's ) .. they still have some talent but those 6 players carried them alot, Fulton looses 2 great players in Mobley and Dobson and most important all their linemen .. so depends on whether there are any OL/ DL walking the halls in the  school who didnt play football and what can they get out of them  .. right now not very many options maybe a couple .. and Knox Cath .. there were some kids that were on work program for tuition .. how do they keep them there .. not SUPPOSED to be any kind of aid supplied and there were a few that they had to have assistance to attend  and thye are some of their best players .. plus to boot they loose Rogers, Keurchen, Wood  and the QB a few others .. they have alot of big OL and DL returning so would look for them to try to pound the rock or they should.

Halls and OR do not belong in this all too early preseason poll. Not sure Fulton is in this either. Not yet anyways. How someone leaves Henry County out of a 5A poll makes zero sense. To each his own tho.

Just a starting point for discussion. With all of the classification changes it will be tough to predict. Thinking about it, you guys are probably right and Henry Co should be on there. Always good to get other opinions, especially from the other parts of the state

2. Hillsboro

 

3. Rhea Co.

 

4. Henry Co.

 

5. Fulton

 

6. Beech

 

7. Oak Ridge

 

8. Shelbyville

 

9. Gallatin

 

10. Ridgeway

 

Honorable mention

 

Knox Central, Walker Valley, Page, South Doyle, and Knox Halls

 

I think there is a lot of question marks for a lot of teams at this point.

Not so fast my good man. Oak Ridge is loaded in fast skill players and returns an experienced QB. You would expect me to mention Tee Higgins is gone and that does hurt A LOT but finding OL/DL and LBs are probably of more concern. The kicking game will be solid.

 

However if people want to sleep on Oak Ridge that is fine by me since polls are just sticks stuck in the ground.

I can agree on this. It's a lot closer

Sorry Mr. Corso, but OR has had the talent the last 2 years and should have been playing in Cookeville. Instead, the staff found a way to screw that up. I expect nothing less this year.

      Cane Ridge vacancy

      By ThatOneOldGuy · Posted

      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…

      Where does DCA go?

      Well, your Big Western Hunt better turn up some Zebras to come graze on the Stones to make the jungle gametime ready again and make sure the plumber bros. still will come service the facilities at the Mecca. I hope your weekend is Fowl. Tell Rip hello from the Five Oh. Maybe the Gravedigger will catch a ride with Alphaniner on a flyover soon to BNA.

      It’s not hearsay, just patently false. As one of those young coaches he apparently “ran off”, coach never once ridiculed or degraded anyone. Sure he challenged kids and coached them very hard,  but we have different definitions of you call that degrading. Coach Hammontree changed my life when he gave me the chance to work for him. I learned more about being a man and caring for the people around me in 4 years working for him than I did in 20 years of my life. No one sacrificed more than he did. I left Heritage because I felt there would never be the support necessary to help the program succeed. I’m tired of hearing people drag others down especially those they truly don’t know. Coach has moved on and a new coach is there. Just let the man live and root for the team.

      Waiting on the Great One.   White Horse and Rip have a big weekend in the woods, and the Sheriff is working the overtime here.      Turkey season awaits…..Big Gobblers everywhere.
