Unless your weight coach is calling the plays, your hurting. Flatt can take 2 five gal. buckets of water and a broom stick and turn an athlete into a winner. A physical, and don't forget, mental tough winner.

BA played in the same District as BGA at least up to 1988. Go Eagles

1983 or 1984, BA at Gallatin(jr. high). BA victory. That's the fact Jack.

Recruit? BA doesn't have to recruit. Even if they do recruit, what is the problem? BA is a private school that sells itself well. When a Jr. Pro coach sees a kid with talent and sets up a meeting with the school, there is nothing wrong with that. This has been proven in the highest court in the land. So they offer breaks on tuition to families that can't afford to pay $9,000 a year. What is the problem? As long as BA families pay their taxes(which are suppose to help fund public schools), there is no problem. I do not have a problem with public schools. I have a problem with schools that don't promote their schools the way BA does. There are a lot of schools that have better athletes in the halls than they do on the field. BA is a family that has good qualiy people as students. There will always be a few bad apples, but on the whole, good people. They have one of the best Hs coaches in history and he is not done yet. So, BA doesn't have to recruit. If you are a quality person with good athletic skills, you probably would love to play for the best coaches and best program in the state. Unless you are one of the many who have received some of the good old fashioned butt whippins the Eagles have handed down over the years. Or, maybe you just like pulling for the underdog. Something else, two myths I have heard for many,many years are " I was recruited by BA" and " we scrimmiged BA and beat them". I guess every kid that has played football in TN was recruited by BA and they beat them in a scrim. Get real. Brentwood hail to thee

Thanks for the kind words Gladiator1.I may not have been the best, but no one had more versatility. I like to think I could be in the company of the great players mentioned, but there are some names that have been overlooked. Let us not forget players such as Jeremy Spivey( he knocked people out), Joe Taylor, Scott Speedy(great athlete), Tim Jones, Jimmy Hockaday, Joe Johnston and my list could go on. Not meaning to sound cocky, but I would line up our '88' team against any of them (even the all stars) and we would find a way to win. Class of '89
