  1. I've been fortunate enough to make several stops along the way and all have been very cool and unique experiences. The food was pretty dang tasty too. A few of my favorites have been Bell-Buckle Cafe (Cascade), Mustang Cafe (Loretto), and I can't leave out the Decatur Family Diner (Meigs County). All three are old fashioned comfort food and incorporate the history of their towns. Love all 3 of them and would recommend.

    Worry about fixing that trainwreck up in Hartsville.   

    Wish I could snap my fingers and it be fixed, but unfortunately that’s not possible. It’s not just the W and L that bothers me, the program has lost all of the traditions it was built on. But that’s enough on this thread, DCA  should make a hire pretty quickly to keep from falling behind and hopefully keeping everyone happy.

    Willie from MatScouts has his own rankings. They're pretty close to Flo's however he did remove Cooper from his since he isnt currently competing in high school. He also has

     

    165-

    15. Logan Fowler (Cleveland)

    Rob Atwood (Trousdale County) is two time state champion, finished 5th his other year. He's only lost a couple matches in his high school career. He is a VMI commit.

    Re-watching the game I don’t think people understand how heavy it was raining. 

    I don't believe so either, I know because I was out there for 8+hours on the sideline lol. I was pumped to get some of the celebration shots I got. Upperman will be back, Caine is a great Coach, he knew he needed to try to break the rhythm of PC Offense. Check out the photos here  https://615preps.com/2023/12/02/gallery-pearl-cohn-vs-upperman/

    The man asked for some of our top players…..I’m just replying to upper and you went on a rant about TN MR FB but you’re correct. Only problem is it happens in every state. 

    Agreed, we can nominate but at the end of the day it’s not us that decides it’s the committee

    Man atlee couldn’t even beat Jackson Co

    This is when I was doing radio, I told Pond after the game that they could hang with H2O but they had to use the edges and quick bubble game to match their athletes vs H2O’s. That is where the teams were closely matched. I even told him his line play was not good enough to win these games against TC, H2O, or a playoff game. Safe to say he thought it was a better idea to do something else. Line play and scheme are a lot better under Brooks!

    Line play was y’all’s issue

    Just curious,  if Greeneville were playing PC, would there be as many folks thinking PC wins the gold ball? 

    Yes, Pearl has been my pick all year regardless who they were playing. This PC team can do so many different things. Upperman must execute as close to perfection as possible to have a shot at the gold ball. If they make mistakes Pearl will win comfortably. On the flip side, Pearl has to cut out the penalties. My thought process is Upperman is probably the 3rd best team Pearl has played while Pearl is clearly the best team Upperman has played. But that’s why you play the game. Anything can happen. Also, prayers to the UHS community

    Thats why the games are played. Past two weeks playing teams we’ve already played and beat, I think we did a great job and a reminder that it’s win or go home. It’s always hard beating a team “Good teams at that twice” . I agree we must limit them penalty’s but I think everyone on this board has been complaining about the refs during the playoffs this year. The kids and coaches know they are going to come out guns blazing. People has doubted  Haywood all year and the have nothing to lose. Safe travels to the Haywood faithful. See yall out North!!

    From the games I've seen I would concur about the stripes, good luck tonight hope to be covering those firebirds in Chattanooga next week!

    WORDS OF CAUTION:

    In 2021, Greeneville was undefeated and Ranked #1 in 4A. They ended Elizabethton’s 31 game winning streak by defeating them at their house 44-12. A BEAT DOWN! Fast forward to the quarter finals. The Cyclones come in to Burley Stadium in G-Vegas as considerable underdogs. Yet, walk away with a 13-7 victory. Coaching and player execution of a brilliant game plan can be the difference. PC looks the part. Greeneville looked the part. Tullahomma looked the part in 2020. Ask them about their rematch with Nolensville in the quarters. The next two weeks, anyone can win. Haywood, Pearl Cohn, Greeneville and Upperman all have a legitimate shot at that Gold Ball. I expect the team with the best game plan and execution of that plan will win. When you get to this point, coaching is a factor. Mostly, you can’t just out talent a team anymore. It takes a complete effort from the top down to achieve the goal. Let’s see which staff has the goods and can guide their teams to glory. 
    Josh Puckett, Tony Brunetti, Eddie Spradlen and Adam Caine. Good luck gentleman.

     

    While this is very true, if PC doesn't make mistakes or have 20 penalties (which they've come close the last two weeks) I do not believe anyone in 4A will beat them and may not be able to stay within 14+ points. When they are on they are must see, one advantage to Haywood, they've not been on the last couple weeks.

    Facts: Dyersburg will have the best football player on the field Friday night, and it isn't a discussion. With a Georgia offer, this guy is basically unblockable unless double-teamed. East will likely need to scheme ways to run away from this giant or leave in a back to provide help when he gets pressure on East's QB. They are undefeated for a reason. This will likely be the best team East has played this year and that includes Smyrna and probably FRA as well. East will have to eliminate self-inflicted penalties to move on to Chattanooga.  

    I believe FRA would beat Dyersburg comfortably, they don't have a RB like Ty Clark. As for this game, this one may very well come down to who makes the least amount of mistakes. East isn't going anywhere though, two stud sophomore RB's.

    Right well the last few games say when you click on them to watch they are blacked out by York till 12-3. It makes no sense. Everyone exchanges video with the opposing team 

    It makes a lot of sense actually, give the teams 1 or 2 games of your choosing and don't just give them free film by having games available on NFHS.

    My thought is York has been tough on defense stopping the run so ER may run on them at the beginning but York will adjust like they have all year. Then we will see how good ER’s passing offense is. I know for a York won’t roll over and let ER run over them. YORK defense is the best part of their team.  It will tell when Mr Goves meets the WALL in one of those holes. 

    From an outsider that has seen both teams, ER may pass some but make no mistake they will run the football, whether York stops it or not.

    Isaiah Groves is undoubtedly the best player in 2A and arguably in all of the state.

    1st part is clear and away true, should be Mr. Football winner and rightfully so, 2nd part he’s in the discussion but there are several in that discussion, the state of Tennessee has a lot of very talented high school football players right now.

    If they had the beech kid and his dad calling plays. They would have beat East by 35.  Just like my guy says I’m just keeping it real 

    Maybe not by 35 but Smith would be the big favorite and the likely favorite to win gold in Chattanooga… but he’s not.
