Coach R,
Potter did not take over from his Dad, there were at least two coaches between them. I believe the year before Ralph went to McCallie, the Blue Tornado was winless, and in his first year they won one game....then things started to turn around.
The McCallie "dynasty" won their first state championship in 2001.
Nice try though
also checked the tape...he stayed in the game.
If anyone knows how to take a video clip from a dvd...i can post the clip of that hit for you to download. its nasty
Didn't know he was interested in the Pack. He can come here and have three years beating up on fellow Chattanoogan Adarius Bowman who plays for the wimpy tarheels.
Boyd is definitely better than McCallie
Sure, comparing common opponents isn't perfect...but Boyd lost to a terrible Baylor team that McCallie completely abused.
anspa...Tyner might be able to hang with most of the Super 7 this year, but I doubt they could beat MBA or BA. Tyner has not fared well against either McCallie or Baylor in the past few years either. They did beat McCallie last year, but in the past three years they are 1-5 against the two super 7 schools in Chattanooga, and Baylor hasn't competed for a top spot in the league in the past 5 years.
Well, in the past 5 years, McCallie has lost one game in Chattanooga (last year against Tyner).
This streak includes:
3 wins over Tyner
Wins over Red Bank, Hixson, Bradley County(2), Rhea County, Baylor(5)
Talent clearly does not win games....no way would Tyner beat BA/MBA
I agree with most of your points.
However, I think that your point about coaching tends to favor McCallie being ranked higher. If they could beat Tyner in week one, I think they could beat them again after Potter has had 10 weeks to make adjustments. I'd say an early season matchup favors the more talented team.
Either way, I'm pumped about the dominating win today. CBHS will be tough as will whoever McCallie faces in the playoffs.
Final:
McCallie 35
Baylor 6
That makes it 6 straight for the Blue Tornado and only last year was even close.
No playoffs for Baylor....I don't understand why they aren't playing 10 games.
At least they beat Boyd "we're good enough to be in the Super 7" Buchanan.

This broadcast is classic.....two Baylor kids trying to put positive spin on this #### whooping.
"Hopefully Baylor can meet McCallie again in the playoffs, because we really need to beat McCallie." -GREAT IDEA...or McCallie could just get a bye.
Jake Dougher had 2 kicks in a row that went less than 10 yards....an extra point attempt and a blown onside kick.
28-0 McCallie.
11th minutes left in the 4th.
"It's pretty quiet here on this side of the stadium. Really there hasn't been much to cheer about all day as McCallie has totally dominated."
