  1. Lewis County's defense did exactly what they had to do, came up with plays and stops. Lewis County's offense moved the ball, had explosive plays, and put points on the board. CA's offense scored 1 time, in the final 90 seconds of the game. Take away an unbelievably athletic play by two Bulldogs on the pick-6, CA doesn't score until LC runs out of their own end zone for a safety (which was by far the best play in that situation). LC put CA in situations that forced bad play, with 3 days prep.

  2. They play the region schedule they are given you idiot. You constantly gripe about the district/region LC is placed in "year in and year out". What do you propose? What would be the ideal region for LC since you are overly obsessed with who they match up with in region play. Have LC with Trousdale and Watertown out of 4, Waverly and Riverside out of 6, and Union City, Adamsville, and Peabody out of 7? Who cares about the mileage, really, it is all about stronger region schedule right? You want to chirp about how unfair it is that LC plays in the district/region they do "year in and year out" but your only proposal is more an accusation against a Hall of Fame coach that he is the reason regions/districts are drawn the way they are.

  3. No doubt the Tiger air raid is top shelf. Prior to the game General had completely given up on his team and was even mocking them. Now because they managed to only be down 2 points at halftime he acts like they let one slip away or Waverly must be as terrible as he says Forrest is. He doesn't think Waverly can throw the ball because they didn't score 60 I guess. Simply put, they didn't need to in order to defeat Forrest. All of his evaluations are based on score differentials, halftime scores, common opponents, etc. He's basically Sonny Moore with a witty personality and sense of humor. General, I love you but you're way off on your assessment of Waverly. You need to look at their entire body of work rather than being selective about their performance against an opponent they were struggling to get up for. That's not to say Waverly won't lose to CA. (Although I personally don't believe they will) CA hasn't looked to be no where near the caliber of Waverly since they played FRA. For whatever reasons that have been discussed ad nauseam. I still say Waverly 41 CA 27.

  8. You have to be some kind of special to really believe that, idiot. I am still waiting for you to present your "ideal" region for Lewis County to play in? Your lone argument has been, and continues to be, his buddies hook him up. Absurd. Region 5AA is by far the best district/region Lewis County has been in many alignments in terms of equity in enrollment numbers and driving distances. Enrollment (per last alignment): Columbia Academy- 488* Community- 509 Eagleville- 437 Forrest- 547 Lewis County- 500 Loretto- 494 Summertown- 454 *with multiplier Distance from other region schools: (Total mileage round trip to/from LC) Columbia Academy- 58 Community- 112 Eagleville- 106 Forrest- 98 Loretto- 68 Summertown- 36 When you look at enrollment and driving distance, the region looks equitable for all schools. When LC was in the region with Waverly, Scotts Hill, etc., the driving distances for all schools was substantially increased. The district stretched from Loretto to Waverly. Before that, LC was in a district that included Stewart County, Dover, almost to Kentucky. The last time LC had a district with similar travel distances to what they have now was 2012, when LC was with your boys. If LC were to play in that district, the district from 2012, the enrollment numbers as of last alignment would look like the following: East Hickman 526 Fairview 710 Giles County 902 Hickman County 499 Lewis County 500 Marshall County 902 Page 1,123 Spring Hill 1,053 Summit 1,406 Perhaps, with your insight you should propose more equitable regions for TSSAA. I understand why you would not be boasting about your team and would rather continue this ridiculous argument. Your boys have had a total of 1 10-0 and a total of 1 9-1 season ever, and, again using your words from a post last year and some you have said this year, Sure do see a lot of (1's) on this "post season" list, they lost in an early round on both occasions. Also, LC has had almost as many playoff trips that went beyond the 2nd round than your boys have had that you actually won a playoff game. Furthermore, LC's playoff winning percentage (.431) is higher than your boys (.419). Your boys are 10-1 currently, maybe they can break their own streak of not getting out of the second round with such a good record Drop your axe you have ground off to the beard with your vitriolic diatribe.

  9. No doubt the reason Ensley wasnt nominated for Mr. Football is bc of all the carries that went to 4 or 5 other backs. Pretty nice problem to have when your 2 starters are out and you plug 2 more in a never miss a beat

  10. Do either of you really think you have a chance next week against Ballard & company. This should be a great game that Betsy squeaks out and then here comes the Devils. This game Friday night is probably 1 of the top 3 in the state. Betsy has Beaten 1 ^A and 2 5A teams still alive in the playoffs. WItten and his staff does a great job having the kids ready to play plus they have a score to settle Friday night. Respect each other and go play the game the right way.

  11. Most likely they will be 3A. We are right there at it now and in 2 years, we will be bigger than we are now. We've got more people moving to Watertown every year, plus we accept people from other school zones who are willing to drive to the school.

  12. Can't blame a parent for wanting a kid to have best educational and even athletic opportunities possible. Pressure on the DII school's coaches to produce winning programs is no joke either. I expect Boyd to make a strong hire for football very soon and they will again be "looking" for athletes to get a good Christian education. No shortage of programs trying to get good athletes in Chattanooga. As long as Coach Turner remains at Tyner he will take the kids who come to him and in his "old school" way coach them up into football players and young men as best he can and hopefully we will be competitive in 2A football.

  14. I played 66, 67 and 68. Probably before Pizza girl was born. He always comes across during playoffs every year with the same old tired stuff. Lewis County has never played down. This years schedule has two AAA teams and no A teams. In those seasons mentioned above, we couldn't find teams out of our conference to play us, so we played Nashville teams and Dickson and Pulaski. Could only get a 9 game schedule. Doesn't matter when we get put out because we are ALWAYS there. Weak district?. CA, Eagleville and Forrest? Ignore the little girl. She is just trying to stir up something from nothing.

  18. This game is going to be awesome. The RiverRats will be bringing the beef to Lewis Co. and the home team will have the wood ready. This is going to be one of the best games around in 2A. Coach Sharp always has his boys ready for the playoffs, and I guarantee Frostie will have his team ready. Those parents at Lewis always have some good food cooking and they have even been known to give away some free snacks near the end of the fourth quarter. I was up there one time, my team (at the time) got beat 45-6, and the Lewis Co. folks gave all the opposing team free food for the long bus ride home. Some good folks up there for sure..............

  20. Hard to argue with 1 and 2 to be honest. I feel like both Stewart County and CreekWood should be in the mix for the top spot in 11AA. I also think Waverly will struggle to be competitive again, but I see 3-7 being different than you have it. I dont think there is much difference in Camden, East Hickman, Lewis County, and Fairview, as last year only 2 games separated #3 from #7. Hickman may be a year away, but I agree they have a good group of young girls and more coming. I think you will see more than you are expecting from Lewis County girls, adjusting to new coach and new schemes early, but players returned and there is some depth with young girls that played several minutes last year.

  23. We will have scratch, claw, fight & pray a-lot to have a chance Friday night. The rain can help us if we can play clean football. We have to put it all on the line Friday night and battle to the end. Control the ball, no turnovers and limit the big plays from Tee and AJ. 1,2,19 & 22 have to do a great job in the secondary. The D-line @ linebackers must have the game of their lives. If not it will be a replay of a few years back when we didn't get past the 50 until late in the 4th.

  25. That's just not right...lol. We normal schools have the luxury of possible D1 talent coming around once every few years and that's usually one kid. You just named off 4 kids in one year! You guys are blessed by the high school football gods. We have one kid named Marcus Hayes (MJ) RB/DB in class of 2021 who is special. I feel like this kid has the potential to go down as one of Covington's best if things keep progressing the way they are. He is a Mr. Football nominee as a sophomore. Excited about this kid, just need more around him in the future.

  31. I’m sure they are good athletes, but I find it hard to believe that Mt. Pleasant has athletes that are any better than the ones they have seen. One other thing, MP has not seen team speed like they will Friday night. These Mustangs hung 41 in the 1st half on Moore co last Friday and 2 of the leading rushers only had 2 or 3 carries.

  32. I may receive backlash and abuse by commenting on here, but I feel it necessary to clear the air on #13 and exactly what transpired. He did not quit because he is a drama queen. Anyone that knows him and has watched him play over the years knows that he is the exact opposite of a drama queen and is a very humble young man. He is not arrogant and does not show boat. He doesn’t play to the crowd for attention. He believes in taking care of business on the field. He believes in respecting your elders but also believes that respect is earned. This was not a single incident decision, this has been building the entire year and was simply the last straw for him. He was given an ultimatum and he made a choice. He didn't throw a tantrum and yell, scream or cuss at the coach as others have done this year. He handled it with dignity. He never wanted to let his friends or team mates down. It broke his heart to leave them. They were the only reason he made it as long as he did this year. The final straw that led to the ultimatum from the HC to "do as I say or turn in your helmet and get off my field" came from the lack of respect and support from his coach. In no way did he think he was too good to do bear crawls and would have done so without question if he felt he had actually done something wrong (like we have seen from some others...kicking an opposing player, throwing a punch, a flagrant foul). It was a horrible call and instead of the coach having his player's back and taking a stand for him, he wants to get in his face and punish him in the middle of the game. It is my opinion only, but practice is the place to hand out punishment for penalties, not the middle of the game doing bear crawls. If you want to punish during the game, then you sit them on the sideline, you take them out of the game. At least Coach John's did go to battle for his players. He got several penalties himself in the process, but at least his players knew he had their back and they respected that. Again, my opinion, but NONE of the players should be doing bear crawls or belly flops (as someone called them in a previous post) during the middle of the game. This was definitely not the way he wanted his senior year and football career to end. This team should have completely dominated the region this year. This team had so much talent that was wasted. Much better than the record reflects. Heartbreaking and disappointing all the way around. So, with all that being said, if this is an inappropriate place to post this, sorry but before he gets trashed for being a drama queen, I want the truth to be told. Everyone is entitled to their opinion but he is a good kid. Salem and General, whoever you may be, I appreciate the nice things you have said about him in the past.

  37. Very excited to see y’all! I’m personally an even bigger fan of basketball than I am football if that says anything. Our team has made the state tournament four of the past five years. They lost a few seniors coming into this season but the bulk of the talent returns this year, plus a couple of new players that’ll be difference makers.

We do seem to get better each week. I just keep worrying about the stupid penalties. At some point it's going to cost us. Play the game with your physical abilities, not your mouth!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  46. This game is not going to be a blowout either way. Anyone who thinks that is being silly. I've seen both teams a combined 6x in the last 12 months. Wavelry has a very fundamentally sound O line, 3 ridiculous skill guys, and an average defense. CA has 1 ridiculous skill guy, a couple other good skill guys, and a very good defense. CA has been saddled this year with appearing apathetic at times, making little mistakes that they weren't making last year, and the loss of their QB. With Waverly, if you put a good athlete on #37, he won't destroy you. But then you have to still line up and take care of #11. #45 is a load to bring down. I think this is gonna be about who is winning at the LOS. Not from a power/push standpoint, but from technique. Can CA shed Waverly's excellent blockers and get 2 stops per half. On the other side CA needs to play an almost mistake free game offensively, SO THEY CAN SCORE. Holding Waverly to 21 or 28 points is meaningless if you are sputtering, coughing up the ball, putting yourself in holes with penalties, having the majority of the action on your side of the field, etc. Waverly will be very up for this game. Maybe TOO up. It's a very long trip for CA. I think both teams will be ready to play. I'll have a pick by Thursday

  48. If CA can start controlling the pace then it will definitely become a challenge for us, but if Waverly gets ahead early it's gonna force yall out of that and will make it a rough game for you guys. First quarter will tell a lot about the game, no matter how much we talk it will all become clear Friday.

  50. Gonna get this ball rollin and give my opinion. 1 Stewart County has good size and will be deep again this year. i only saw them play a couple of times last year but I was impressed by them. 2 Creekwood is always in the top two in this district, I expect them to be the second best because of what Stewart County has coming back. 3 Camden has improved so much over the last couple of seasons. I am excited about the prospect of this years group. 4 East Hickman has been in the mix the last few years, and I think they will be in the upper half of the district. They lost some important pieces but should still be near the top. 5 Fairview is an improved group, and should be better than last year. i have little knowledge here, but have been told they should be improved and have some youth that can contribute. 6 Hickman County has a chance to be the most improved with a good group of young players mixed with some experience. i expect this to be a beginning of a rise for this team. 7 Lewis County dropped hard last year and had players leave the team. I saw them play twice last year and they seemed to get worse. 8 Waverly has not shown any reason to believe they will be any different than they have been.
