Maybe something else to think about for Region 6:
Community High School in Unionville is starting to build their program. I think they're playing Jr. High this year.
They're about 10 minutes from Chapel Hill (Forrest) and Eagleville, and in Cascade's county.
They would pretty much have to be 6-1A.
Here's my football list:
Forrest
Columbia Ac. - Cornersville - Collinwood - Huntland - Moore Co. - Wayne Co. - Cascade - Mt. Pleasant - Richland - Marshall Co. - Spring Hill - DCA - BGA - FRA - Nashville Christian - Davidson Academy - Watertown - Loretto - Cannon Co. - Goodpasture - St. Andrews/Sewanee - Tn Sch. for Deaf - Lewis Co. - McEwen - TN Prep. - Eagleville -
Football = 26+
Total = 100+
gomab I totally agree with your points. I actually enjoy seeing what you have to say when your polls come out. Its just funny how some people get so torn up over rankings (players or teams). Getting ranked is a great accomplishment, but in the end everything gets settled on the court. That's the best part.

Each poll (the last ones I found) had four teams make it to the state. Also, this was the most accurate of the three D1 polls.

(Thanks supersteve17.)
unbiasedspectator, you're right about Region 5 with FRA and Ezell.
BUT, Region 6 can match you with Wayne Co. & Moore Co. It seems like at least one of them makes it to the state every year.

One more went down. Two won region. Two play tonight.
I looked for the last Class A poll I could find to see how everybody's doing. Half have gone home and half are still alive. I guess for everybody who gets bent out of shape over who is and isn't ranked should just relax. Just beacause your team is ranked doesn't mean your going to the state; and just because your team isn't ranked doesn't mean they're not. I think that's why they call it March Madness.

1. Unionville - no one better at tourny time
2. Culleoka - no longer in the district basement
3. Moore Co. - although it doesn't seem to matter who's the coach, always in top 2 or 3
4. Forrest - even with two great players, you have to get every one playing together to win all those games; he's done that
Defense, rebounding, and running the offense; but they've got time to straighten things out before tourney time. Remeber, its not about who's ranked higher in January its about who wins in March.
The last thing I heard, I think, was that he still worked for the Orlando Magic after he retired from playing. This could be totally wrong so take it for what its worth. Come to think about it, I'm thinking of Jeff Turner so nevermind.
