Baylor beat EH or signal..... he funny!.... Even though Baylor, McCallie, Notre Lame and Boyd steal the top 5 players from every public middle school via scholarship......its still private school football, those kids are soft, private school kids are not hardnosed, aggressive.... I've never been to a Private School game were you heard helment noise from the stands....... or even hard enough contact to break an egg shell.... private school kids are soft as baby feces.

Give somebody who is weak a litte power and they go hog wild....... I bet he's really intimidating on the kindergarten playground..... can you say Lou Who !

I would like to be open zoned with strings attached ..... Baylor and Boyd don't have to absorb 300 kids from Howard to pick up 2 mediocre never been Coached football players... which raises their classification........I just want to absorb the athletes from surrounding schools only and drop back down to single A...... kinda like Friendship Christian and Boyd Buch..... or Alcoa

I want Hamilton to join the football elite, by 1st un handicapping itself with ancillary rules.

I would like to ride north for Carson Newman

I rode past lebanon hs on the way to friendship........its a big school, huge.... I wonder how kids zoned for lebanon ride past it on their way to play fb at friendship........ I wonder if we can get the FC recruiter to work at UTK.......

I was only semi annoyed by the air horn at Friendship, but I can say that I liked the fact they didn't have that stupid track around their field where you have to sit 75 yards from the action.

All the open zone schools and football elite around Knoxville like having the Championships in Cookeville. Since the TSSAA is their lapdog they comply......

Troll, I just read back through your threads, I can see that there has been an outpouring of brotherly love on here. Keep winning friends and influencing people.....that's the CBP way!

No arrogance here, just somebody who knows what they are talking about, and who is not about to let a bunch of disgruntled and self righteous malcontents run down our kids, and community. I wish we could give Howard back the 6 bus loads of un-disciplined behavior problems that they were able to unload on our school. There wasn't one football player in that whole bunch of Howard kids that was bused up here.....Of course the self righteous at Friendship would go to a school like Howard and take the only 2 players they had via scholarship, and leave out the 300 additions of dead weight to their enrollment. I wish we didn't get the increases in enrollment,(we did not want) so we could play Friendship again..... We're twice as good as we were last year (no thanks to the bused enrollment, or the 2 transfers) and self-righteous whiners need to be manhandled and have the score up on them. Geesh at the moaning....Some of you sound like a bunch excuse making liberals, who seek parity and stringent rules to make public schools equal. Meanwhile sending your kids to private school, recruiting, giving scholarships and generally exempting yourselves from the scrutiny by which you condemn everyone else....hypocrites. The kids on Signal Mountain stand up and represent every week 110%, you can bet your A-- that we stand up for them.....Our team represents the work ethic and can-do attitude that made America and football great. We busy ourselves finding avenues to success and don't waste time making excuses, moaning, or wishing....Keep dreaming and wishing that hard-work and dedication will backfire on SM.....Are you people sure that your not looking for the soccer-#### message board? From some of the communist drivel I heard some of you probably know less about football than you do about fornicating......

Those who are jealous of SM's success have tried to discredit its validity by talking about transfer players and enrollment. First of all the transfer players that have come in have not added much except for depth. Transfers have typically lacked the discipline, mental and physical toughness, and football background to make immediate contributions to a Bill Price team. The reality is that our neighboring schools have been playing at a substandard level for so long that its very difficult for transfers to assimilate and meet the demands of our program. Transfer players will not add much value to Signal's program unless they come up in the 8th grade and labor until they are Sr's under Price's rigorous weight program. I do however hope we start recruiting players in the 8th grade and bringing them in early enough that they will be difference makers. Notre Dame, McCallie, Baylor, all recruit and have for 30 years, why shouldn't Signal. Signal offers the best chance in Chattanooga for players to reach their full potential and be a part of a successful program. What child or their parents would not want to be a part of that. Signal offers the best product, people that don't like that outta step their game up. Finally, on enrollment. Because Signal Mountain is like Mayberry it has a disproportional number of family's who retarded children living up here. Parents with retarded children move up here so their kids can go to school in a safer environment where they are less likely to be victimized. Retarded children count towards enrollment classification just the same as normal children. I don't have the exact numbers, but I think that if all the mentally and physically handicapped were deducted from Signal's enrollment we might still be a AA school. Signal's success hasn't come by manipulating the system, its come by working within the system and doing it better than the competition. We come into every game better prepared, in better shaped, and definitely tougher. I'm reminded of Boyd Buchanan.....they have giants on their offensive line and non of them will hit hard enough to break an egg shell.
