LCAKNIGHTSD---

 

In my day, when a man called for a truce he was at least honored with a response. Apparently, you are not man enough to publicly state your disagreements with me or friend enough to embrace me. I wanted reconciliation, but apparently that is not in the cards. If we are meant to be enemies, that saddens me. However, I can swallow my pride and accept it. Please---no flames in response to this post. Let's keep things classy and civil around here, LCAKNIGHTSD.

 

Respectfully,

I am a big LCA supporter and I think that post was just not well advised. Like others say on this thread, you have to have a bit of a thick skin to post something. I love you Randy Denton, you complete me.

And THIS is exactly what I AM SAYING! Again, you have responded to me with a venomous and insensitive post when I was simply trying to explain what happened. I am new here...why are you picking on me for no reason!?? I expected to be welcomed and yet you are busting my chops at every turn.

 

I happen to know for a fact that a coach or two that I mentioned is getting much more than "gas money."

 

Truce?

 

GO BIG RED!!!!

 

Randy Denton

Are you going through menopause???

Oh, I get it. Its not so much what I posted---which was reasoned and not bashing---but the response that could have erupted. Exhibit A was lcaknightsd's unreasonable temper tantrum.

 

Again, all apologies to the moderators and all the fans out there. I was just trying to get an interesting discussion going.

 

GO BIG RED!!!

 

Randy Denton

Thats' exactly what I am saying, bigredmachine78 you need to think about what you post. The rules are clear and simple, most schools love their coaches and they put in enormous amounts of time into what they do. NFL coaches get paid millions to be on a hot seat, highschool coaches get gas money.

Ralph Potter (Brentwood Academy): After a loss to the BIG RED MACHINE---MBA---this past weekend, BA fans are grumbling for the days of Carlton Flatt. Potter may be out on the street if things don't turn around.

 

Paul Townsend (Mt. Juliet Christian): Promised a state title within four years...in year two, MJCA isn't sniffing the playoffs. This is a community that expects a winner and cannot tolerate the losses for much longer.

 

Ray Greene (Lancaster Christian): After a narrow win against Red Boiling Springs, the boo birds were out in full effect at the last home game. Fans are restless and believe that the gimmick offense of LCA cannot ever produce a winning program. Expect Greene to be out before the end of the calendar year.

 

Phillip Shadowens (Smyrna): A state title has upped expectations in Smyrna, but the level of play on the field has declined. The loss to Lebanon was a major red flag and after this season things won't be so "Sonny" in Smyrna. Prediction---Shadowens to Middle Tennessee Christian in a shocker!

 

Anyone else have other ideas? These are just some thoughts, and I don't claim to be an expert by any means. Just an MBA fan in Murfreesboro that loves high school football

Who is this guy, first off LCA cannot have a losing season and it is there first year! Brentwood Academy??????? This is probably that scottsboro idiot.

Any thoughts on LCA traveling to Sewanee this Saturday? LCA comes to the game with a decent 5-3 record after playing poorly in a 40-24 loss to The Kings Academy. SAS is coming off of a difficult loss to Pickett County 24-12. Hopefully we can get our offense moving again and play better D.

Go Knights!

I was just reading this post because I found the topic to be very interesting. I am trying to follow the little spat between the two people about questions and such and felt a decent reply be in order. My comment is this, football is a game, that is all it will ever be. Parents will attempt to relive their lives through their children through it, the media will place it above God at times and people will pay good money to go see it. It is still however just a game. When a kid or an adult is hurt seriously or even hurt slightly, respect from BOTH teams is due. The unspoken rule is that you take a knee until the player is up again and able to go to the sidelines. Keeping legs loose or warming up or even winning takes a back seat to these kinds of things. Any coach worth his salt teaches kids about life through football. It is a great vehicle to do so, so in regards to players giving high fives and cheering, not a good representation of that coach or school or the individuals involved. Hopefully those boys never have to wake up to a trainer asking simple questions about what day it is, also perhaps that coach handled it after the game and the emotions of the moment. God bless football!

It is hard to predict in this one. King's is a mystery because they have dominated bad teams and got dominated by good teams. Clay County is a much better team than years prior, though Jellico may be a bit of a drop off. I do know that our offense has been struggling lately but our defense has been overwhelming. In our last two games we allowed 61 total yards and three points against RBS and 50 yards and 8 points against SCA, 48 yds of which was on one play. These teams however are not very good yet so not a viable measuring stick. I think that the offense is ready to roll though and will make for a great game against an evenly talented school. We will really get a good look at where we are after this one. Go Knights!!!

You don't make excuses huh?

If you don't make excuses what do you call those?

There is a difference between a fact and an excuse. An excuse is saying something like "we played a lousy half of football" or "our receivers dropped passes" Why does an FCS fan post on an RBS vs. LCA thread? How many games did FCS win in their first year of football? Research it, how well do first year programs do? Even MTCS got beat by MJCA in their first year of play. I'll take three wins for a first year program, and we still have five very winnable games left. Go Knights!

You don't make excuses huh?

If you don't make excuses what do you call those?

I am done posting on this thread. Teams beat us now while you might be able to, we have one senior on our team.

Go Knights!

I never said Red Boiling need "Glory" i just said they deserve a win. I don't think that any young man should ever have to go Four years of his footbll career and never have that feeling of a win. I wouldn't even wish that on Watertown or Temple.

 

Your right about one thing, you and RBS are different. You can claim whatever you want about work and i don't really care, at the end of the day i will still respect their coach and their players higher than yours or even the ones at FCS. It takes a whole lot to lose 3 - 4 season in a row and not quite. Look at Temple right now, they have lost 4 in a row and the coach has quite, and Pasture says even a few players are quiting. Anyone can work hard and be on a winning team, it takes alot to be on a losing team and still hang around, and because they have the heart to do that i want them to feel a win. Is that such a bad thing?

Who they play is a good question... They are not "on the map" of Coacht. In fact, coachT doesn't even have them listed as an official team... So i went to the Tennessean.com to see if they are a middle tennessee team. The Tennessean.com has them listed so lets look at some stats, and teams they have played.

 

According the the Tennessean.com

 

Beat MJCA (0-4) , Beat Pickett (1-3) , lost to David Brainerd (2-2), and it has no score for their game against Riverside.

 

Now, The Tennessean.com has no stats listed for our good friends LCA.

 

Now i knew that their entire schedule consisted of teams that were either Cupcakes in other regions (MJCA, RBS) or had just started programs in the past few years (David Brainerd, Pickett), But what i don't know (and this is for LCAKNIGHT) is where are you getting your information that your team is third in the state in rushing?? I looked on Tennessean.com. So where is your info comming from?

I think unapproved website is a recognized highschool sports site. Not only are we third in the state, we have a runner that is 96th in the whole United States. And by the way the teams we play are comparable to our own enrollment and ability. We never said we were Brentwood Academy or Smryna, but we are well ahead of were we should be as a FIRST YEAR program with just over a 100 kids in our school. Oh and we beat Riverside 40-14. It is easy to take 100 athletes and put out a good football team, try coaching 20 private school kids with no experiance.

Against whom?? /blink.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":blink:" border="0" alt="blink.gif" />

Again, we have 8th graders that start on our team. We have about 23 players out of about 100 in our school that play football! I said I was not bashing RBS and I wasn't, I just know what our boys do day in and day out. You could say the same thing about a lot of schools in regards to stats. It is equivolent to who they play, and we play LARGER schools than us, with programs that have been around alot longer than us. Keep sipping the Hatorade, and go with coach Bolles to the prom for all I care, but when it is all said and done, LCA will be on the map for football.

I have been watching the posts on here about these two schools and even posted my own. What I am seeing is an overall sympathy for a bad football program. A good friend of mine once said that excuses only satisfy those who give them. That seems to be the case with RBS. They are in a tough region, and it may take while to get where they are competitive. The point most LCA posters are trying to make is that we don't make excuses, by all rights we should be getting beat just as bad as them because we are a first year team with no feeder program and most of our boys have ZERO football experience. It shows at times on the field as well. We had a very winnable game against DBCS but let it slip away with penalties and turnovers. We put a lot of work into this program and while the rest of Rutherford county was off for the heat, we were out practicing. While RBS Was at home playing Madden in the summer and Spring, we were hitting the weights and conditioning. So before someone says "they have the guts they just need the glory" please be informed and post something that you know about. RBS is bad for a reason, it is not because of lack of talent they have size and some ability. I am not here to bash RBS, just to say there is a difference between LCA and RBS. We are committed to what we are doing and the boys believe in the system. Last time I checked, we are 3rd in the state in rushing. GO KNIGHTS!

RBS needs a win worse than a dead man needs a casket. Coach Bolles and the gang needs this one for it would be a definite ego booster. Where is this school? Smith Co.? There is a community near G'ville and W'town named Lancaster.

The school gets its name from its founders Keith and Sherry Lancaster. It is located in Smyrna about a mile east of LaVergne. We are not eligible for playoffs and are not in the TSSAA, we want to be by '09 but our enrollment is still very small. We have nearly doubled our high school enrollment from a year ago but still only have about 100 kids in high school, including 7th and 8th grade. As far as predictions for the game, RBS definitely has nothing to lose here but in the end I think our talent will be too much for RBS.

LCA 48

RBS 6

Just curious...I see Red Boiling Springs on this board alot, but have no clue where they are located in Tenn...can anyone help me out

Someone once told me that you go to the middle of nowhere and take a right.

ok ill bite. you wanna talk rca-lca? fine. lets do it. both yall are growing teams on the rise, but you are both still pretty horrible. no offense. none taken. listen, here's the deal---yall might be a close game, maybe even game of the week and whatnot...but now for some analisis. LCA- they have a decent passing game and they gotta big guy who can catch it. they have a solid center and there punter has gotta cannon leg. cant run the ball much though and that is their downfall. lots of runs for negative yards and cant really get it going ever. will have troubelw ith tough riverside d.RCA- qb sneak every play...they go either left, or they go right. if they dont run it, they will definitely pass it. look out for tunrovers!!!! they struggle on the line, but they are not that bad either. final score- LCA- 6, RCA- 2BOOK IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11111111111

I do not know why I am even posting a reply here but here we go. SCA is an unknown here in Tennessee! They played or should I say got outplayed by a couple of teams in middle Tennessee. Nashville Christian smoked them by 43. LCA shut them out and LCA had 8th graders starting on the line. As far as RCA goes, they are growing and should be a decent team in a few years. I look forward to the matchup this Friday as our boys from LCA will get a good test. GO KNIGHTS!

You must be a football genius."if they don't run it, they will definitely pass it" /roflol.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":roflol:" border="0" alt="roflol.gif" /> To the game,I've heard some good things about Lancaster Christian.I like to see young football programs coming along well.

Does Gordonsville have a new QB or do they still have the kid with the cannon arm? I enjoy the way that you guys support your team, very much a football town.

From a Eagleville fan, go Lancaster. I hear that the QB for Lancaster runs the double wing pretty well doing all the fakes even though he is the son of a preacher, he must take after his Momma. Too bad yall want be able to join region 5 in 1a. We would love having yall playing Eagleville. Maybe yall can scrimmage us in the future. Lancaster by 14, Brainard will have a tough time adjusting to all the fakes.

finally we get a little love. We are excited about the play of LCA's QB. He is very young but a great leader. Thanks for the love, though we don't mind being the underdog every week. MJCA and Pickett thought they had an easy win on the schedule for this year but I believe that our kids are tough and coached well, and contrary to popular belief, we do not currently have any homeschoolers playing. We have two on the roster but neither one is a starter and they are also both injured.

The reference was only to the comment that DB had small wideouts, not the final score. Will give LV credit for the win, and good luck with SP.

LCA runs the true double wing. We only have 100 kids in our high school. We must get everything we can out of each player.

I didn't mean to offend you Lancaster Academy fan. I am just stating that I have never heard of them.

LCA is a very small private Christian school located in Smryna. They only have about eight seniors in the entier school and last year was their first graduating class! Just the fact that they have two blowout wins this year speaks volumes for their coaches. To address someone's comment from last week, they do not have any Riversdale rejects on the team. That is talk from a sore loser. This week like all weeks will be a good test for a young Knight team. See, they are expected to lose every week, the luxury of a first year team, but when other schools get beat by them, well that's different isn't it.
