    Yes, Facebook and Covington Gridiron Assn. page. There will be a Live Stream with commentary by Henry Glass and Harvey Witherington. Think Howard Cosell and Dandy Don Meredith. Of course if you are under 50, you will have no idea what I'm talking about.

     

    I do know who you are talking about (lol). Thanks for the info!

    Pretty accurate but I would put South Pittsburg’s marching band in there somewhere and I would probably have South Pittsburg pre- k a little bit higher! Lol

    South Pitt's nursing home at 10??? Sorry, but that's a senior heavy team with a lot of experience. I would have put them at least top 5 with that much experience. Granted, they may play an old school kind of ball but you know they'll grind it out.

    I mean absolutely no disrespect to Lake County,  but I think if someone can do what he has done there, then he can be successful anywhere.  Yes, it's a very tough district, but if given a few years to work the boys in the weight room, I think he'd get Westview back on track. He'd also be bringing his son with him as well, that would be another much needed target for Simpson. I think the Puckett kid will be either a sophomore or junior and could really compliment the QB and his spread offense. I think if Puckett is interested in the job they need to make it happen.

    Cayden Puckett is also a pretty good QB in his own right. The one time that he and Simpson faced off was their 8th grade year during the middle school playoffs for the TMSAA west sectionals and Puckett had a vastly better game between the two, along with a convincing win.

  4. Take Lake County for instance. Rounds 1 & 2, they hosted Booker T Washington and MASE, both out of Memphis. BTW brought a grand total 2 fans (bus driver and head coach's wife apparently). MASE brought about 15 fans. With the TSSAA getting their 50% cut of ticket sales, not a lot of money was left to give either team.

    You have to take into consideration that I was having to reply to a LC poster. They don’t see logic and stay confused.

    The million dollar field comment is to this statement by you: 

    So obsessed they got the best horse they could find as a mascot....a donkey.

    I took that statement as an allusion to relative fiscal situation of the two areas. Hence, my comment about the field.

    You to may be confused my friend, because yes thoroughbreds run up and down the field, yet it is only for a short period of time. Donkeys go for the long haul. The playoffs ain't a sprint, which is why the donkey will still be there, stomping away.

    Thank goodness. Welcome back Lake Co’s man crush. And please let Guidance hold your jock strap for comfort. It’s embarrassing really. They think about you as much as the Mustangs. So obsessed they got the best horse they could find as a mascot....a donkey.

    Not sure about a man crush, but you gotta give props to a poster, who with just a single sentence can shut down an argument AND make you laugh at the same time. As far as the affording only a donkey, we are after all Lake County. We don't have the money to afford the million dollar field, let alone thoroughbred race horse. Yet, that same horse you have is made for a sprint, while the donkey is made for work. At the end of the day, the donkey is still standing, working, and stomping while your race horse has already gone to rest at the stable to eat hay.

    Tanner Snyder has 1300 yards passing with 19 tds and 1 pick. He has rushed for 1200 yards and 19 tds. He has 12 2 pt conversions. Tubbs has 1400 yards and 24 tds. These two kids have played exactly 3 full games this season. They have been taken out of 7 games at the half. So, you do the rest of the math. Snyder and Tubbs numbers would be through the roof if they got to play in the 2nd half of games. Snyder also is completing 68 percent of his passes.

    Not to mention that Tanner also plays linebacker on defense too.

    I'm out of Chattanooga.  Honestly, am a little less than informed about the Northwest corner of the State and around Jackson.  No disrespect.  Just based off what I know of the West.  It was honestly the toughest choice of the bracket between Lake County and Memphis Middle College.  

    FYI - The #3 team (Greenfield) in Region 7 beat Middle College 34-32 in mid-September. Later in the season Greenfield lost to Lake County 56-0.

    Your argument is very valid and on point. There is a much better solution that would make both public and private happy but require the TSSAA to actually work a little bit harder. The best solution would be for the TSSAA to not Jam 9 different state championships into a 3-day period. A much more Equitable solution would be to have the private championships be held on the week before the public school championships. That solution completely eliminates the need for Thursday championship football games and it also eliminates the extra bye week that the privates have before the state championship games. The TSSAA would come back with the argument that Tennessee Tech might have a home football game scheduled for the Saturday before. Simple solution in that case is to have the private school games on Friday. That would allow the facility to be used for college game the next day. That solution will also eliminate the possibility of the Public's playing on a Thursday.

    I believe that my solution is a fair and Equitable way to please both public and private schools along with the fan bases for each.

    My whole point is that it is not fair for either privates or publics to have to play a championship game on a Thursday. There is always a way around it. What is easiest for the TSSAA is for them to do things the way that they are now. That however is not the best way to do things.

    Which is why the TSSAA would never do this, because it makes too much sense.

    1. Lake co

     

     

    2. LCs 1980 Championship team

    3.LCs 1985 Championship team

    4. LCs team next season

    5. LCs 1985 runner up team

    6. LCs 1977 runner up team

    7. LCs 1994 runner up team
    8. LCs 1980 runner up team

    9. LCs 1979 runner up team

    10. LCs 4th grade youth team

    also mentioned, LCs girls basketball team and 2017 LC middle school team that won that jamboree game

    I think LC's middle school team from 2015 should be ahead of the #10 ranked 4th grade team. After all, their only loss came to Memphis Bellevue in the West Tennessee Sectional Finals. That Bellevue team was as big as a lot of 1A teams in the state today.
