Yes, a very stupid troll.

It is a fairly easy argument to make that perennially Whitehaven's talent is second to none, so it is refreshing to see "blame" placed where it always should have been placed - COACHING - and not the all too common reflexive "incompetent", "biased" and even "racist" referees. As their #1 fan you can get away with saying it without being attacked. BTW, the best way to deal with trolling jerks like MJBear is to ignore them. Responding as some have only rewards their unsportsmanlike behavior.

Lausanne was all girls for most of its history. Went coed about 15 years ago when Marc Gasol of Memphis Grizzlies and Johnny West son of Jerry West GM of Grizzlies made their first boys athletic team a power in BBall. Football was added only recently (2012 ?) Agree They NEVER would become all boys

"Attacked" ??? LOL. Hyperbolic as usual. The obsession is all yours. As an adult, I moved on from last season. If I even come across one of your numerous posts, I rarely read them and certainly would not comment on it after your response last year. I suggest you do the same. You're the one one who has stalked me, perused my posting history, and now taken a swipe at me in this blog. Had you not been complaining online about your player getting dissed by the Mr Football selection committee, our paths never would have crossed. As far as "Walker" it was an honest albeit slightly sarcastic question as to where he is now. Just like it was an honest albeit sarcastic question about his first name last year. Move on. We can agree that we both think the other is an ahole. Stop acting like one.

Not out-of-control. PC and I had a confrontation last year which has created an obsession in him to comment on anything I post.

Too funny. YOU are one of those "smarmy folks that feel better by posting" LOLOLOL

LOL. I had a strong feeling you would show up after you stalked me to the 5A-6A site last year. You've got your nose into everything. Do you even have a life off oif CoachT? You are the classic example of the pompous know-it-all poster who comments all over the sites and drives others such as RRR off the blogs. The people I have "attacked" such as you deserved to be called out for your demeaning comments and yes being an "anal pore" BTW what happened to All World "Walker" who had no first name and DCA?

RollRedRoll - agree with you 100%. This may be my only post this season.

It seemed pretty clear that he was only listing wins by D2AA teams against 4A, 5A and 6A teams.

Agree. But as EHS-Trezevant demonstrated, upsets can and do occur when teams meet up at the right time - or wrong time depending on your point of view.

As to my 1st post, it's called "sarcasm" Because you assumed everybody knew who you were talking about when clearly they didn't. Donelson is not exactly the center of the TN HS football universe. (More sarcasm) Best wishes to you and your team likewise.

First of all, to say you have been "nice" is laughable. Secondly, if anybody cared, they could go to the original threads and see where the "false narratives" are really coming from. You came on this thread and reengaged me for no reason other than to be the AP you are. Nobody is making fun of "Walker" but rather your POSTS. You told me I would "find out" who "Walker" was in the game vs. Lausanne. The game was not covered in the local newspaper except for some stats. Walker's name was not mentioned. So I assumed he didn't play. Then you made a comment somewhere about his "season ending injury" so I thought my assumption was correct. But then you started a dialogue somewhere else about his performance in the game? Apparently I wasn't the only one who noticed this contradiction - he played into the 4th quarter of his team's last game game with a "season ending injury." LOL What is "illogical" or "hypersensitive" about wanting to know what team a player being discussed plays for??? Moreover, if you assert that "Walker" should have been one of the 4 semifinalists, then that IMPLIES that one of the 4 actual semifinalists should not have been. Can you not see that??? Unless you stated that there should have been 5...... BTW, you have liberty to snipe out of the bushes all you want. I'm through responding to somebody who sees nothing wrong with going onto a championship game thread to post that the newly named Mr Football on one team would be the 4th best RB on the opposing team and only the 5th or 6th best RB in his division. Besides, there are other people out there calling you out for your arrogant posts. Have a nice (delusional) life.

You got one thing right - it did start when I asked you to identify "Walker" by citing his full name and/or team, because I (and others as it turned out) did not know who he was, and you would not do so. Instead you went on an indignant rant.. Others chimed in but also got the middle finger salute from you. That's it in a nutshell. That "self righteous" label is warranted by your posts on several threads, and others have called you out for it besides me. You called them "losers" and me a "loon." LOL..

You recognized this but PC refused to. ON 2 threads I simply called him out for different reasons, never debated his contentions, yet he considered it a debate (delusional) and declared himself the "winner".- including on any threads where he actually was debated. BTW - VERY funny remark about playing so well "after a season ending injury." LOL

Let's be fair. Ensworth was NOT a "top D2 school" last year (they were REALLY down) and Trezevant is not a typical 2A team. They recently were competitive in 4A and probably should be playing "up." They won 2A this year but lost by 40 to EHS, who still are not back to their more usual selves. Alcoa is only 3A but could compete with anybody in the state most years. BA is contender for D2AA virtually every year but actually is a pretty small school. They probably would be 2A or 3A if they were a public school. CBHS is by far the largest school in D2 but rarely is a competitor. . Point is that size doesn't always matter. Your best teams in 6A and D2 should be competitive. .In order to know to what extent, we would have to have the best teams in a given year playing each other. That's not happening now at all, and I don't see it changing, so it's probably going to remain part of the IFL speculations on CoachT, ,which, as you probably know, I think is rather pointless. . Oh yeah - congrats to Da Haven - wish you well for a repeat.

No you're not. Just like you're going to ignore the growing list of bloggers calling you out for being a self righteous know-it-all? I don't think so.....LOL

Neither of us lies. There is no "lie" to an opinion. However, I did mistakenly attribute the comment about Hayden Price to you when it was in fact made by your kindred spirit "CFAfan." (BTW - What is a CFA?) My apologies. But c'mon, admit it - you agreed with him didn't you? I mean, how could the Texas Ranger have been a semifinalist without one of the 3 Memphis ringers being left out? (You opined that Howard should have won). And if not Price, should it have been Austin or Gray?

LOL. You think anybody believes you didn't read my post? I'm only back in your face because you responded to my earlier post.

What he actually posted was that Walker should have been nominated instead of Hayden Price, who became one of the 2 finalists. Because of the "Memphis bias" of those idiots who do the voting. Such a shame we all can't be as brilliant as he. Did you read his post where he predicted Lausanne would lose by at least 14 points to a Webb team that had 3 running backs better than Eric Gray??? This guy loves the taste of his own feet.

I see you didn't take my advice and seek professional help. I will take this occasion to add "paranoid" to my assessment of you as delusional, as you accused me of "following" you from thread to thread. LOLLOLLOL. I suggest you take a deep breath and reread what I actually posted. Contrary to your delusional memory, I never disagreed with you about the substance of anything you posted. Indeed, even if I had chosen to do so, I could not agree or disagree with you about "Walker" because I didn't even know who he was and you wouldn't tell me. Rather than say he played for DCA, you had said that he played for a school that was well known in middle and east TN and had won a state championship. Is this a quiz show? I described this as nebulous. Others agreed and said they too didn't know who "Walker" was. You got defensive and said it wasn't nebulous. You claimed everybody should know who Walker was because he had been discussed before. Maybe on some other thread in the past, but it was his first mention on the "Mr Football" thread. You acted like I was arguing with you about "Walker." Red Robin tried to dissuade you, pointing out I was only asking for "clarification." But you wouldn't be deterred from your rant. Finally, I called you out as an "anal pore." And that's what I did on the Lausanne-Webb thread. I never discussed the merits of what you posted, just called you out for making a thoroughly inappropriate post, which I am confident that everybody on CoachT except other anal pores would agree. More recently, you got dressed down by KWC on the "Top 10" thread for largely the same reasons as mine. Everybody on CoachT especially love how you keep declaring yourself the winner in all the debates, real and imaginary. Seriously. Get some help.

My deceased friend to whom I often refer, was a standout player in HS and played college ball at Texas. He had extraordinary knowledge and insight. In his last years, the 2 HS players he raved about the most were Jalen Ramsay and Derrick Barnett. Funny story. He joined me at a playoff baseball game with BA and I pointed out that Cody White was sitting i front of us, and for the next half hour was a silent onlooker as they "talked shop.". LOL.

I believe this topic is already covered in existing threads...

Yeah, MUS is overdue. They run in periodic 2 year cycles - gold balls in 2004 & 2005, 2008 & 2009, silver balls in 2012 & 2013. I never cease to be amazed at how often bloggers don't include MUS in their list of top Div II programs, including in this thread, where they were lumped with Baylor as an "occasional" contender. I guess it depends on how far back you go. During the 2004-2016 period when MUS won 4 gold balls and 2 silver, Ensworth had 4 gold balls and 1silver, BA 3 gold and 3 silver, MBA 2 gold and 1 silver, Baylor no gold and 2 silvers (2010 & 2011). Do I detect some mid state bias here? in any case, my deceased friend I mentioned above was practically a member of the MUS athletic staff. He knew and regularly spoke with all the coaches and knew all the scoop. Since his death, I really don't have any special insight. However, as I detailed in another thread, they seem posed to make another 2 year run. The "X factor" is how they will stack up against the contenders in middle/east.

I have not had any inside info of the goings on at MUS since my best football buddy died suddenly 3 days before the MUS-Whitehaven scrimmage in 2014., so my not hearing anything about a boarding school means nothing. I doubt this is being considered seriously at any DII school, but who knows. The MUS property at Park and Ridgeway is already pretty full of facilities. Don't know where they would put a housing unit unless they cleared out one of the few remaining forested areas. I'll keep my eye out for anything in the alumni magazine.
