Congrats! Where will they all attend for the next few years?

I thought Cumberland was a Wing-T team? Not much throwing going there. I do hope they mix it up with more passing to go along with the run game. If so, it looks as if they will have a QB that can get the job done.

Donathan, This is great news for such a new program like Indy. Any news about the rest of that stellar senior class? Stout, Consiglio, Veres, etc???

Scott Pettigrew, 6'2" 215 maybe a little heavier than that. He will run over you and by you. He has a couple of D1 schools that have made offers and a few others that soon will. A healthy Pettigrew and there will be no question that Indy wins this one by a big amount. 35-6

Right now, the Eagles need a win. A win to get their confidence going and put them in the right mind frame for the stretch run through the rest of the region. To say this will be a "cakewalk" for Indy is a little dramatic. With only one win under their belt right now, there is no such thing as a cakewalk for Indy. Didn't East have a RB last year that was a stud but injured his knee? This dude is suppose to be a legit D1 prospect and if he is back, that is East's offense. IF East is as bad as you make them out, then maybe this is what the doctor order for Indy to get back on track. Overall, I feel Indy will win but it will be a closer game then your blowout prediction. Don't get me wrong, I would love to see the blowout score. More importantly, I want to just see the win for Indy and get this team back on track.

QUOTE(rapbwood @ Jun 26 2007 - 03:33 PM) Quite a few top 5A and4A teams are playing DII this year. After Week 6, a good indication will be based on the following games but I doubt it will prove anything conclusive. Aug. 24: BA v. Independence Aug. 24: MBA v. Antioch Aug. 25: Christian Brothers v. Melrose Aug. 31: BA v. Ravenwood Aug. 31: McCallie v. Franklin Aug. 32: Christian Brothers v. Ridgeway Sept. 14: BA v. Smyrna Sept. 14: MBA v. Hillsboro Sept. 14: Father Ryan v. John Overton Sept. 14: Christian Brothers v. Wooddale Sept. 28: MBA v. Ravenwood Oct. 5: MUS v. Cookeville Also, Independence plays MBA the week following Brentwood Academy. Great matchups between 5A and DII schools this year. It will be interesting to see how they all turn out. Maybe that winning percentage will decrease? Then again, it could increase. That is what makes this so much for fun for the fans. Most of these players could care less about winning percentages amongst 5A vs DII. They just want the opportunity to play against the best and show they are the best! Remember, these are 15-18 year old kids. It is still a game for them. For the fans, we worry and dive into all this extra stuff. Mainly, to prove our alma mater or local HS is better than someone else's. It is fun to have the bragging rights when your school defeats the other. Then its fans can stick out their chest and act like the king of the mountain. If that happens for you, great. Enjoy it to the fullest. For all the players out there...go have fun and be the best!!

Coacht, Independence is actually located in Thompson's Station, TN. Not Franklin. It is real close to the border of Franklin but the actual mailing address is listed as Thompson's Station, TN 37179 This changed happened about two years ago. That is all I noticed. Thank you for all you do for HS athletics in TN.

Ok, here's my prediction: Crazy...I know. But, hey it's all about the fun, right? Good luck to both teams TN 20 Ky 14 Is this the last time TN all stars will play against Ky all-stars? Why?

Region 6 is correct!

Any results from today's action? I heard there was a ton of speed and great players at this tournament. Thought: maybe if TSSAA actually attended such a fun thing and saw the enjoyment these student-athletes are having that they would think twice about banning such tournaments next year. One gets a different perspective on things sitting behind a desk than actually being involved and at the event. Players love to showcase their talents to persepective coaches and to other teams. Those that play love the competition. The suits in TSSAA have lost any competition spirit they once may have had. Sad TSSAA, you are so sad. Tarnish these players dreams of competition, to measure up against other players from other states and flex the TN high school football muscle. In this humble HS football fan, you (TSSAA) are causing that muscle to become atrophy. Wake up TSSAA you are hurting your big dog sport. Now, you are going to run the clock when a team is up by 35 or more in the fourth quarter, BUT if it gets below that then you go back to normal timing??? See link below: http://preps.tennessean.com/apps/pbcs.dll/...98&game_id=

The bigger states that care about getting their players greater exposure and help them get better don't have these ridiculous restrictions. TSSAA fumbled the ball on this new rule. Are there elections or term limits in the TSSAA? It seems like Ronnie Carter and his staff have been there forever. Maybe it is time to reconsider who is incharge of HS athletics in this state.

Ok, I'm confused...is the Rwood 7 on 7 happening or was it cancelled? /unsure.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":unsure:" border="0" alt="unsure.gif" /> /blink.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":blink:" border="0" alt="blink.gif" />

Here I go again picking an eagle from Independence...they do have some good players this year. But, I would go with Jeff Veres from IHS. He has a strong leg made a couple from 45+ yards last season.

I would add RB: Scott Pettigrew - Independence LB: Ryan Consiglio - Independence

Ravenwood is hosting one on June 16. Contact Coach Rector at Ravenwood. Vandy has one June 5 and 6. However, it may be too late to register for that one. Check with Vanderbilt football. Those are two that I know of...hope that helps. All the best to your team. /smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />
