  1. If Notre Dame can get away playing soccer on their football field anyone can. The fence on one side is can't be more than two or three feet away from the out of bounds line. Makes for interesting throw-ins.
  2. Magnet schools look like yet another TSSAA classification opportunity to make sure little Johnny and Mary have a "level" playing field and win at least one state championship before graduating - the God given right that every TN high school student has.
  3. Yeah. As a member of the class of '70 and as my wife reminds me "you know you're old when people really don't care what you did in high school".
  4. Didn't he come in second to Potter's 2001 team and then Flatt came back the next year? They had 5 runnerup trophies in a row, so it gets confusing. Not knocking runnerup trophies in the most competitive division.
  5. I meant "Potter had much better students at McCallie". It seemed clear when I posted it originally. On the other hand, he's got better athletes at BA. Seems like a good trade if you want to be in the finals year end and year out.
  6. I imagine their decision not to pursue BA for legal fees had to do with the liklihood they wouldn't prevail. Had BA's suit been without merit and determined to be frivolous they might have had a case. This case went through multi federal appeals and to the Supreme Court twice. Hard to call that frivolous.
  7. The longer Potter is coaching at BA, the better they should become. Potter's offenses are relatively complex. At McCallie, the middle school coaches started running some of the offense used in the high school. Of course Potter had much better students at McCallie but not nearly as many athletes as he has at BA.
  8. The series started 104 years ago and was suspended in 1940 because of violence (now that's a rivalry). The series renewed in 1971. Fourteen future NFL players and three future College Hall of Fame players have played in the series.
  9. Will the TSSAA sue the plaintiff for legal fees? Generally the plaintiff has the larger legal bill in a civil case. In this case, wonder if Barfield and BB&S gave BA a discount.
  10. Great athlete but too short for quarterbacking in the SEC and should be a star in the Big East.
  11. It's difficult to rank guys separated by 20 years but I would have to go with Tanner. Here are there respective wikipedia citations: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roscoe_Tanner http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chris_Woodruff Roscoe's college career and pro career were impressive.
  12. PF lost 7 games this year. Five of the losses were to public schools. Maybe PF should schedule more private schools.
  13. the "usual suspect" was removed. I won't name him but he lives in Knoxville, his two daughters are the top doubles team and would win without the on-court coaching.
  14. Not to dinigrate Carter or Sherrod but a very good record and scoring stats were earned against very weak competition. A player the caliber of Sherrod can dominate when playing weak teams. CAK is anything but weak. CAK by 2 or 3.
  15. Sorry it didn't work out.
