Congrats Sonny! I think this was the right call at the right time. Now he can really be more relaxed in the springfling and senior year.

did it already come on?

Dude don't remind. It hurts soooo bad. I hate Pierszinski and those dumb Sox announcers are freakin boring. HE GONE!!! Give me a break.

upper or lower bracket, which is tougher do you think?

Smyrna over Houston

It's official. Wilks was offered by Florida, Michigan, and South Carolina over the weekend. Oh yea and Kentucky too.

Why didn't Maryville drop one of those sorry local teams on their schedule then? Yall talk about how big and bad yall are but everytime a great team calls Maryville out, they make excuses about how their schedule is full and they don't wanna give up the crosstown games which aren't even games because the other teams are terrible. You say you can beat anyone in the state, right? Well than PROVE IT.

He's a BIG time Smyrna fan. No way he likes 'dale. His son plays for Smyrna.

I was showing how stupid it would look if that was how he was evaluating Rod. I wasn't saying he was spending all of his time thinking and discussing about him. Geez lighten up.

Ok but what I dont understand is why they still wouldn't be trying to recruit him. If I was Urban Meyer at Florida, I'd be thinking 'Hey we just won a national championship and are the top sports college in America right now. Most kids dream of playing for a college like us. I'm not sure where this Wilks kid projects at the college level though. Hmmmmmmmmm He could play WR, safety, cornerback, returner. But what makes him special is he is unbelievable at each spot. So what should I do? Just sit here and ponder over which spot he'll play and waste time while other top programs' coaches are winning him over by personally visiting him, or should I go check this kid out and pay a personal visit or send an assistant there instead and we can offer him and when he gets here we can sort this whole position thing out.' I'd much rather have a kid that could fill in any of 4 spots not filled by other players then be left with any holes in my roster.

IMO Rod makes a WAY bigger impact than spurlock. Rod is the type of player that coaches have to change their entire defensive schemes around. Have you ever heard of a coach staying up all night trying to figure out how to stop an offensive lineman? No.

Well I think yall have to consider the fact that while college scouts do watch how a player peforms in games, it's not all about that. They pay most of there attention to how they do in drills to see what they are capable of doing physically and how much potential they have at the next level. But by the way, Rod did win mvp in the championship game which should wipe out all doubt of his ability to perform in big games. Rightfully so because Riverdale's DBs are not that good. The reason why they didn't get burnt in the passing game was because of the D-line's ability to put pressure on the QB play in and play out.

yea smyrna had fulmer, nobody cares about UK football, and saban is coming here this week

Yea I know. We could always use a #2 reciever.

Which schools have actually offered him besides Bama and UT? I've heard that some schools will offer him or already have but there is no indication on any recruiting sites.

I could see Verge or Spurlock and alteast one of them is a lock for finalist. Not so much for the other two.

lol

He's saying he wants to take all 5 visits before making a decision. Looks like Rod is waiting for Florida and LSU to offer him.

Add Wilks, Gray, and Day from Smyrna.

I've heard that they are twice as good this year as last season and that they are 3 deep in each position. I'm surprised to hear Day has been moved to safety. With 19 sacks last year, you would think they could find someone else to play safety so that we can keep that strong pass rush w/ Day at LB. It's really hard for me to believe that. Jonah will be a great corner. He has ideal size, speed, and strength to fit that position. I've heard both sides of the spectrum about this new kicker. I hear he can make 50 yarders easy, I hear he is no good at all, and I hear Sonny will be the kicker and punter. Who knows what the heck is true.

Totally agree with you. Will Martin has got some good athleticism and very versatile. WR speed and hands, LB strengh, hard hitting like a safety. He can be used in so many ways. Smyrna's got some big bruisers at RB though. Jarvis Hicks and Brandon Hendricks can wear down any d-line in the state. Add in David Sanders for alittle razzle dazzle as a scat back.

Smyrna started today. Time to defend that 'ship.

I think he's the only one actually. Jesse Torres might be practicing with basketball, but I don't see the point in that.
