big D

Have they had spring practice yet? Will the new coach be hired in time to do so?

If Forrest and MTP were to meet up in the 3rd round, it would be at MTP.

yes, summertowns first varsity season.

looks good but I don't think Summertown will be in district 5; they are right in the middle of district 6. if anyone goes to north, it would be Columbia Academy.

Quad 3 Prediction MTCS Forrest Riverside Mt Pleasant Eagleville loretto

They didnt sub but one or two; Rice said on the radio he was not comfortable with the lead until the last drive, which is why he faked a punt up 14 with only minutes to go. MTP players #20 and #21 are fun to watch, they are shifty and will break your ankles on one play and then flat out run you over on the next or even on the same play. #5 for WC probably played his best game to date. big hits all night. refs were horrible. MTP looked to being starting freshmen and sophmores on the line which can only help them in the coming years. WC was too much up front and controlled the LOS. Great game and i look for both to make playoff runs, if they can stay healthy.

with the new classification numbers out, it looks like Region 6 will be back together. what teams do you guys look to be in it? looks like to me: WC, CW, CA, MTP, PC, Summertown, Cornersville, Richland (not sure about PC)

i will agree with BB here, Loretto is not a bad football team and continues to get better every week. they have an issue with ball control which seems to be under control now. if they control the turnovers; this game will be closer than the WC fans want to admit. Bad Weather will be in the favor of the mustangs.... they don't want to pass anyway. Athletes will match up well in this game. I say this will be an upset victory for the mustangs.

i think it needs at least a trophy. Braggin rights i guess will fuel it for now

not sure about this post..but... i would order a Double Wing if i went to KFC or HHS

yet, another assumption that Coach Hatfield doesnt coach up his QBs. did you watch him like you watched coach Kelley? You know that Kelley is as by the book Delaware Wing T as you get right? how many State Championships did all that QB coaching get him? how many 2nd place Silver balls? i am also pretty sure a High School Coach cant coach football during the offseason due to TSSAA rules... i am sure Coach Kelley would not have broke rules during off season. When Hatfield retires or moves on, HHS may wish the wing t would come back. "careful what you wish for"

What do these two teams have coming back in 2014? will the rivalry be closer or another blowout? i am predicting the game will go back to Gallatin... BTW... this game should have a name and trophey. like all the major rivalrys do in college. any ideas?

You are assuming that the Coaches of HHS and PHS do not scheme based on their players... but if you watch these teams play, i would say different. i watched both teams on several occasions depending on the location of games. PHS for example ran some spread sets and went under center to run what i thought was veer (could be wrong) they had 2 QBs but niether of them could pass very well... would it make sense to run spread? they had NO size at running back, would it make sence to run I offense? HHS has a QB with a huge arm but recievers dropped several passes at that game as well as in the championship game. he did not have the touch pass, only a deep ball. would it make sense for them to spread it out only to go 3 and out becuase they could catch a 5 yard out. i would bet that any of these coaches would be more than happy to sit down and watch thier films and talk football to explain thier reasons. most of us would rather "act" like we know and discuss it here...

the only offense that will win a championship in 6A is Maryville's. Runner up to one of the best teams in the nation... and you want them to change... thier first year in 6A and get to the Final... and you want them to change.. HHS has a large winning percentage with Wing T... and you want them to change.. i dont get it.

unless someone moves into Sumner County, i dont think there will be any 4 or 5 stars in the near future. this year was a special one for Sumner County talent in the football arena.

i think that HHS can keep this game close. (i hope they can anyway). if it is close in the 4th quarter, i think HHS can find a way to win. they are on a great run and may have some Auburn type fate going on.

i dont know the answer... i asked you. all i know is what has already been posted on this thread,(which you began) and what has been written in the papers.

i would guess not many, but arent you a portland insider? wouldnt you know?

Go Vols

they should run the spread offense, wing t, i formation, or veer...those all seemed to work over the years... wait a minute... under further review... they lost with those offenses as well. what were they running last season when they went to the playoffs? that worked, maybe they should have stuck with that one.

LOL, this is what this thread has been missing... i hear Nick Saben's Special Teams coach has applied!!!

i see what you are saying... i misread your post Look at the previous 2 head coaches 3 year span... you will find 5-25 for 3 years after Perry. 1-19 for 2 years... 5-26 for Aric with a playoff. it is the AVG for modern day Portland Football. a 5 win season should be looked at as a premium. i dont know the 2nd guy, but Beaver and Aric are pretty good coaches with attitudes and personality that players love. I dont know what else a coach can do.

he went to the playoffs in 5A. not working? maybe EERS and HIGHLIFE should be hired. they seem to know the secret to winning at Portland. Just look at the BB schedule to see what is going on there. Portland BB has won 1 game. losses to White House, Westmoreland, and East Robertson (all smaller schools) but maybe they have talent and they need BB coaches too. get a new one. i heard (could be wrong) that no previous staff member applied for the job. you can read between the lines on that rumor. They need an Administration that will not bend to the parents and run off coaches every 2-3 years. Stability is needed to win. the next coach needs time. good luck with that at Portland.

good luck to the WAVE. should be a great game.

Gallatin has Talent, that is why they are still playing. Last season Portland had talent that was able to compete and did. this season they did not. Coach Aric was the same coach, same staff, same district, talent graduated, which happens in high school football. it happened to Gallatin last year... did they run off coaches. no. THAT IS WHY THEY ARE STILL PLAYING. Portland has talent... just not 5A talent. Portland middle schools also have losing records. Will they change as well? i agree with EERS, they need a young coach that will not be fired WHEN they have down seasons.
