Good thing for Ravenwood and Maryville that Indy is 5A. Bunch to Johnson is unstoppable.

I just watched the film of this hit. I believe if he would've attempted to go lower he may have been ok but the fact that he stayed high and kept his shoulders head high on the receiver made it a easy call. The receiver actually seen it coming and tried to protect himself a little but still received the complete blow to his head. 3 inches over and the young man couldve been sitting the Ravenwood game and more because of a concussion. i in know way believe it was cheap or even intended to injure, i just dont believe he thought about hitting lower. My son plays defense and I love to see him stick someone hard but I like the rule because it has taught him to go lower on his hits and I don't have to worry as much anymore about him getting up after some hits. If it's your son you hope this teaches him to be careful going forward because that same hit could've injured the young man from Whitehaven very easily.

I thought so, I remember going to that one when I was a kid in the mid 70s.

Thanks, we never had a reason to leave in fear because you all made us feel comfortable. Even when the kids "gathered" in the middle of the field. Your staff had it under control. It makes me sad though that it is even an issue that is noticed. I'm sure you shook my hand but you would've never connected me with my son. I am a 50 year old short fat white man and he is not... Being in that part of Memphis brings back a lot of memories for me. I spent my summers growing up in Potts Camp MS and since there was nothing down there we made trips up Hwy 78 to by groceries and shop or even just eat at McDonalds. A lot has changed in the last 35 years though. How long has that mall right down the street been around? It seems like we used to go there but I may be wrong.

He made a big mistake against MJ and he has been solid ever since. Even then his mistake was a mental error. The same fake punt that they did to you all, they did to us and he didn't cover the receiver. That's really the only time I remember the coaches yelling at him this year.

He does tackle well and I believe he has 4 or 5 interceptions

Hooper came in and did some good things on defense the last 2 weeks as did Bowes last week. 77 and 51 have been starting on the line since they were sophomores. Hopefully you'll get to see a lot of #23. If this happens to be his last game I want him to finish well.

#6 is a senior #5 is a junior. # 4 is the one who made Cordova give up but #45 has been very strong recently. I would say we no longer run the wing t but the last 4 weeks they have changed something every week

I was an official a couple years ago and it amazes me how some fans can see bad calls on the other side of the field....lol My friends that set around me now wait for my reaction or they ask me why the official missed it. Unless you are there on the field trying to watch everything going on you don't know how difficult it is. Usually when I yell at an official I'm pretty specific about what he did wrong not just " bad call cmon" or my favorite, the one who's son goes held every play. They here that all game long. If you are a fan you cannot see the other side of the field well enough to complain and even if you happen to be right the official on that side has no chance to hear you yell.

I'm not sure. #5 is a junior and his dad is an asst coach who helps some of the kids with recruiting, so I imagine he is getting some good looks. I am not a football expert but I believe he is our best player on defense. I hope #6 gets offers because he is a great kid. My wife and I probably cheer louder for him than our own son. I know that's not a good reason but that's really all I know about it. The only ones I hear about getting looks are 51,4,and 45. Some of the others may, I just am not in that loop.

You either have to love football or someone on the field to sit through something like that. I'm not sure I could sit for 2 hours in that cold.

We had to play Oakland two years ago and it was about 30. Last year my son was injured and didn't play the last 4 games but after I skipped a couple of them he gave me a guilt trip about not being a team supporter so I went to the last game at Gallatin in the snow. I lasted until the third quarter and I had to leave. So I guess low to mid 40s will be ok. I hope you all have hot chocolate cause I can't stand coffee. I usually skip the concessions but I keep hearing how good yours is so I may need to make an exception.

I see all these things said about the coaches and players on MJ team and I wonder how some of you would feel if they were talking about your child not having any talent. There are some great kids that play on that team and it is not fair to them for you all to be having this discussion. The coach is paid to coach and teach. The administration is paid to decide if they will continue to coach and teach and unless one of you are the AD or principle then your opinion doesn't matter. If you don't like the coaching or talent then don't watch them play. I don't know the coach or even have an opinion about his ability but I personally know a couple of the kids that plays on the team and they are great kids. One of them is going to play D1 football and I imagine that is a lot further than some of you saying MJ has no talent. College coaches and NFL coaches deserve this discussion but high school coaches don't deserve to be insulted like they are on coacht boards.

Why don't they play this game at 2 in the afternoon so we don't have to freeze. I hate the cold weather. I moved from IN to get away from this. That's why I love basketball, it's indoors!!!!!!

For you Whitehaven posters, so you'll know why I have a biased opinion sometimes towards one player on WC, #23 is my son. I hope you guys get to hear his name a lot.
