Not a vacancy, but got the feeling Justin Barnes ( Riverdale OC) will be a name connected to a few openings

2015 is still a long while ago in regards to HSFB, doubt any player is going to have that in mind on either side should meet up

BC also lost the last time they faced Oakland since we're keeping track. I don't think it will matter much either way, assuming Bradley wins

If it were up to me, all new schools would be ineligible for the postseason anyways, but no guarantee they would have found any greater success in 4A. Lawson has the same problem every other MNPS school not named Pearl or EN has. They seem to be in good hands with the current HC BTW, let's not put all the blame on the kids for the current state of transfers across TNHSFB the adults are far more responsible

Well WGNS is the one I know for sure, I'd try going to their website, https://www.wgnsradio.com/sports

Short of there being major changes within MNPS, no. Your talking about a school that nearly eliminated football just a few years ago

Unfortunately for CC, anywhere in 6A, probably 5A as well is going to be a tough region. 6A enrollment, but not 6A talent which is made worse with Tullahoma right down the road

Surprised by how many people are taking Oakland, not just on this thread but various platforms. We can argue whether the 2pt conversion was a fluke, but truth of the matter it's been a long time since a TN public school dominated Oakland the way Riverdale did in the 2nd half. In the first meeting, Riverdale thought it could beat Oakland, now it knows it can. Weather could play a factor but doesn't look like it will last past the opening quarter and like any good staff I'm sure Riverdale has prepared for this scenario. I hope Oakland makes me eat my words, but I'm taking Riverdale 27-24. This just feels too much like 2009, two teams that are very even, Riverdale just has something a little extra

I can't speak for Lawson but if it were me I'd want to go ahead and get used to 5A football if that's where I was going to go, that way by Year 3 there isnt adjustment period to the uptick in quality competition

I agree it's a good program and you can win 9-11 games there ever year, they just won't get past Alcoa

The kind of experience McWherter implies sounds like they were in similar situations as CC, places that were hard to win at

I guess it depends on what things you value the most. GP has a fixed ceiling as long as they are in the same class as Alcoa. In 5A, the balance of power has shifted yearly (up to this point, although West might be changing that)

I figured they'll be able to confuse Oakland since Aydellot is still the coach (according to you)

OR has a Sophomore WR that is going to be a star, obviously the QB will be as well. Plenty of positives to take from the season without dwelling on how it ended

That one slipped my mind. Taylor was out for 2/3 of the regular season so plenty fresh and I agree that Bradley uses him in a similar fashion. , but with the holes he was running through I think any of Oakland's TBs would have had a big day What Maryville achieved will never be done again at the 5A or 6A level

I'm assuming this is a typo, capacity is around 5k

There have been a few exceptions, but Oakland doesn't play hardly anybody both ways. They might play 10-15 snaps on the other side but they won't be starting. Only exception I can think of during Creasy's tenure was Jacoby Stevens. What has hurt Maryville the most the last few years is depth, especially on offense

Everybody needs to remember OR is by far the best gig Rang has had as a HC. Right in the backyard of where he played. He's not leaving OR for a program that needs fixing unless the cupboard is full, that's not the case at Fulton

This. Sweetwater screwed themselves royally for years to come

They're just trolling folks, figured it was obvious but I guess not

So we're in the 3rd round of the playoffs and you guys are talking about a glorified practice from 3 months ago? We're not talking about a game, we're talking about practice.....

I guess they'd rather get beat by teams in Sumner & Wilson than RuCo. They'll still be a bottom feeder in either region

HC experience isn't gonna matter in this instance. More important to find a coach that can attract talent. Coffee might as well be a C-USA team trying to compete in a P5 conference

Your probably thinking of Alontae Taylor, who had a successful career at UT and is doing well in the NFL

Not just a tough region but a program with the least amount of talent every year and a successful program right down the road. They were able to benefit off of a bad region last season but replicating that will be nothing short of impossible in the RuCo region.
