Penalty yards and field position changes in the kicking game are the "hidden yards" you occassionally hear coaches and announcers talking about.

A thought about this job: Reduced enrollment, loss of your up and coming players, Still competing in 5A next year....Real ugly '06 season upcoming.

What is the Jets enrollment now? Will the creation of Stone have a 20% impact that might drop them to another class?

I don't think Warren County really understands the level of competition that they are about to see friday night. IMHO Cookeville will lose to Wilson central by a couple of scores and Wilson Central will try to best Riverdale again (their only loss by 14 points). The top 1/3 of 5A is radically better than the bottom 1/3, where most of region 3 resides.

Pretty sure I know him.

Interesting that both of the "small Schools" used as examples are private schools...I think you need to look past the privates and see what 5A teams Gordonsville or Eagleville or Bledose Co. etc... could beat.

It wouldn't bother me to see it further divided into forums for each class.

All banter aside, its great to see some positive Warren Co. supporters. I remember 2-3 years ago when the warren co. hounders far outnumbered the supporters.

A friend of a friend's cousin's aunt's best friend twice removed told me that Jeep's are gas guzzlers. You may have noted that I didn't declare one better than the other, I have it on the word of some people that have seen them both, that Wilson Central is the real deal this year.

Thats pretty funny, a friend of a friend told me the WC newspaper people are talking a lot about winning two and avoiding Riverdale....Wilson Central is as good as Riverdale, which means they've missed the chance already to meet up with region 4 #'s 3 or 4. Good luck Pioneers, its been a banner year for you.

The final order will be: Cookeville v. La Vergne Lincoln v. Smyrna Franklin v. Wilson Central Warren v. Riverdale

"luck" is the ball bouncing off of Drew Bennett into the hands of an Indy DB to completely change the game at the end of the half... "Superior Execution" is the completion of a long pass, nearly in stride to set up a score.

Might be the most positive post I've ever read about Coach Rankin. Kudos to the poster.

I've always been mystified by the "recruit the hallways" phrase.....Put together a program that does things right, be competitive and you'll have those players. I guess the problem with "recruiting the hallways" is that you'll get a bunch that think you "owe" them and when they aren't playing or things aren't going good, they'll be the first to bail out on you.

I've been on a staff that met to the wee hours, and a staff that hardly met...Quality of the work being done should be the determiner....not the quanity.

I haven't seen them in a while, but they looked to be on the rise when I saw them...a couple of years back.

Thats what happens when your losing....when you lose to Siegal.

I understand your misunderstanding. I really take issue with steels assertations that the coach can't be responsible for the irresponsible.

What you see on Friday nights is the result of coaching....or lack of it.

Sept. 30th

The pipeline from Houston and New Orleans to Nashville and the southeast will be back to half capacity by the end of the week, full capacity in a few weeks.

through elementary school

Not to change the subject, but how many of those teams in your list are Private? and how many of the top nine are?

There only chance at being competitive this week is if Lincoln Co. is working on there Riverdale game plan and planning on winging it v. Warren Co....I'd say your going to see the reverse of that score v. the 3A team.

Warren Co. by three+ scores. I heard Gordonsville would've thumped Dekalb if hadn't been a pull your starters in one quarter jamboree.
