I wonder ... why didn't UC think of that tactic last week!

I'm leaning like BHS. intimidated? Nope. Respectful? Yep.

No package with them. I remember we experimented with Eason at TE during the summer. He looked good too. We have some other big guys who fill those roles at TE anyway.

Sneed? That's not what I think. Sneed is fine. Hard to hit the hole when the opposing team's DL is hitting you as soon as you get the hand off. Also, what's up with the OL getting all of these illegal man down field calls? We had 3 TDs called back in the prior game and one I remember was because of that.

I'll have to confess ... I'm not familiar.

Don't forget 3A Peal Cohn and what they've done this year. There are exceptions, especially with 3A schools. However, this is Fairley vs Peabody. Let's talk about that. The 6A vs 2A thing is best discussed elsewhere. Agreed?

Yeah, I went full force Memphis teams too.

We do have goal line issues. We've left way too many points on the board.

I know it's difficult for the top small schools to get games against the elite larger schools for obvious reasons. But 6A average a schools don't usually lose to 2A or 1A schools. I know you believe differently, but the reality is the minority of 1A & 2A can't compete with even the bottom of most 6A and 5A programs, let alone the average to elite 5A or 6A programs. The 1A/2A elite may be able compete with some, perhaps, but not many.

Here we go! The best defense in Shelby County vs the best offense. This one will be played at Houston. You know who I'm rolling with. Who do you have winning this huge game?

LOL ... of course he did. Hernando is the worst team in their league. Oxford is the best in the same league. Oxford beat Hernando 36-0 on Nov. 1, 2019. He wasn't exaggerating one bit. We are talking 6A ball here. That doesn't translate to 6A vs 2A In any form or fashion. Totally different ball game altogether. Context.

BlackHavenSenator wasn't wrong

Don't forget Havengrad04, he will pop in from time to time. I do a thing in the 5A/6A forum called BGIM. In it I place hyperlinks to threads throughout CoachT for people to come and get involved in the conversation. There are very few posters on here from the Memphis area to rep the schools, especially the smaller ones

There was a Greeneville guy who came into the Central vs Whitehaven thread and made the comment that Whitehaven has a CAKEWALK until the championship game ... I knew from that statement alone that he was from the East side of the state.

Impressive. I'm looking forward to more of these games in the future, should Robinson stay at Fairley.

I can't answer that, but you should be able to tell on the film. I remember when Teli White was dominating 2A when at Trezvant. He would dress out about 35 - 40 guys. That's it. A few went both ways, not a lot. I would suspect the same at Fairley. Fairley's roster is probably going to hover around the 40ish number. It's different in the city. Rural 1A & 2A schools will get more participation in their football programs then a 1A/2A program in the city. It's a totally different thing altogether.

If you haven't noticed my avitar, I'm a Whitehaven alum and fan. I've been going to Whitehaven games for over two decades, approaching 3. I remember when Saulsberry took over as the HC at Whitehaven over 15 years ago. The program is now light years better now, then when he first got the job. He, and the coaching staff had to learn and grow and improve themselves in order to consistently go deep into the playoffs an to win championships. Coach Robinson has coached under Saulsberry, but now he is evolving as a HC. It took Saulsberry a few cracks at the egg to get past certain levels. Coach Robinson has exceeded what his mentor has done. He's coaching a team in the QFs in only his 3rd season as a HC. He coached his team to be undefeated region champs in his first season. He is special and we all knew it when he coached at the Haven. He does a football camp in the summer that he's been doing for 7 years or more. He has current college and pros that are from Memphis to come and participate. He may or may not crack the Peabody nugget on this try. Time will tell. However, I feel confident saying this ... if he stays at Fairley, they will bring home a gold ball(s) in the near future.

Appreciate the sentiment and your willingness to state such. I appreciate your dialogue as well. This is why WE all love HS football.

Peabody isn't I'm MUS class. However, they could try to emulate what MUS did just the same.
