That wasn't 20 years ago it was in 1996. I played for CSAS and we were getting ready to play Brainerd. Our girls and Brainerd girls were playing at the time. You are right Though this crap has been going on too long in Chattanooga
Their middle school team competed in a tournament this weekend in Murfreesboro. They have some pretty good athletes. If that is any indication they may have a decent high school team
I understand what you are saying and you make very valid points. Having coached middle school bball in Rutherford county 8 out of the last 9 years I can tell you there wasn't another player the caliber of Laquinta coming through the ranks after she left.
I'm not sure what you want them to do. Right now they don't have the talent to compete in 7AAA, and Laquinta signing with LSU is not going to change that. There aren't any more Laquinta's walking the halls of Lavergne
Moose is always blaming his players, maybe he should do a better job of scheduling tougher competition during the year to get his boys ready for the state tournament
My high school(csas) didn't have a football team but some guys I played basketball against or watched play football in high school who made to the NFL are:
Tony Brown (City High)
Eddie Moore( South Pittsburg)
Eric Westmoreland( Marion County)
This game was not as close as the score would indicate. Oakland showed a lot of heart in the 4th quarter. I was surprised when I got in the car and heard that Oakland had actually outgained Blackman. Oakland has way too many athletes for them to be as 1 dimensional as they are. I'tavius Mathers is the REAL deal I saw where 1 of the oakland players mentioned on twitter today comparing their backfield to Mathers and basically said Oakland was better but after looking at the stats in the paper their 4 leading rushers had only collectively outgained him by about 130 yards. The kid is the best back in the state period
Rutherford County football is what happened Rutherford County is just heads and shoulders above hamilton county when it comes to football. And I am saying this as someone who grew up in Chattanooga and now lives in Murfreesboro
Have a parent meeting. Tell all of the parents that you do not discuss playing time with parents. If a parent has a gripe about how much their kid is playing then they can take them somewhere else.
