I’ll start by saying, Science Hill will score a few, but they will not stop the Red Rebels from scoring at will! Their defense is very suspect, and can’t or haven’t been able to really even slow down their opponents offense. Maryville has more than one player to key on, so that’s the end of that. I was glad to hear that #1 will play Friday, as reported on the Science Hill coaching show on radio last night. Also glad that SH gets to make the trip to Blount Co, so that they can reflect on their season on the long drive back, and get to see what a state powerhouse really looks like, up close and personal. The difference in this game is preparation and coaching, not to mention Maryville’s size and superiority at the skill positions.
McGue doesn’t scramble by choice, he does out of necessity, and yes he extends plays very well, and is quick and elusive, but it’s because he has to. Without him SH is very average, with him they are respectable and hard to prepare for. He also has made the SH coaching staff look better than they should. As much as I would love to drive down and witness what is about to take place, I will catch it on the radio, and save my gas for the drive down to UT Saturday. Best of luck Rebels, from your fans in Johnson City!!!!
