    The games I’ve seen the Reed kid took the snap and carried about 20+ times in all three games. 

    According to a statistical website which atleast for Htown seems to be updated every week,

    Reed has 3 less carries on the season than Stewart, that's a far cry from 80% lol... You seem to fall into the same thing most other teams do when they play Huntland, so scared of Reed (Which i understand why) that they overlook the fullback.

    That happens sometimes when one person gets 80% of the carries. Teams start keying on that player and they get him a lot even when they don’t have the ball. 

    From the games I've seen the only player getting the ball 80% of the time is the starting QB, the ball carries have been split up pretty evenly.

    I sure would have though with a mastermind calling plays and all that speed they could have put up more points A game. Especially MP. I’m surprised y’all didn’t score 100 on Bruceton. 

    Two fumbles into the endzone by Huntland along with other mistakes early and pulling off the gas in the 4th is why it was only 28-0

    Mcewen does a good job keeping the other teams offence off the field. They keep the clock rolling. Their secondary is pretty fast. They have around 30 interceptions this year

    That football is going to be veryyy cold and like a brick, I've heard McEwen runs a lot of triple option. Could see footballs hitting the ground that are normally routine pitches if that's the case.

    I don’t know anything about either team but I did see the  highlights of Huntland’s rb that kid can absolutely fly and has some really good moves. Do they have a good line or other skill players ? 

    Huntland has one of the state's best linebackers and leading tacklers. Not very big upfront, but very quick and the defensive scheme plays to their strengths.Definitely a two-headed monster on offense. #4 & #6 it's kind of pick your poison.

    Huntland's weakness on offense has been ball security though. Fumbled twice in the first round win. Won't be able to do that and win in round 2

    Dont get me wrong I would love for Cornersville to take them out in the second round but I dont see it happening this year. Having said that, when the group of 8th graders coming up reach their junior and senior year, the whole state will be on notice in 1A.

    There's a BIG "IF" you failed to mention in there.

    IF they stay together and are playing as JR's and SR's . Can't tell you how many crops of young talent I've seen over the years at various schools that fizzle out because athletes take off So. and Jr. year, another coach tells them they need to focus on one/their sport, or stop playing because of girls and jobs.

    Middle School/Freshman Yr Championship seasons don't guarantee Varsity success.

    R5 is fairly evenly paired as evidenced by the records of the teams. There is definitely some jekyl and hyde in the teams this season, but with everything being set now, I think the best is yet to come. Richland is a good team with size and speed, but still young. I doubt they give Huntingdon much of a challenge in the end, but could be tight for the 1st quarter or so. Huntland should take out Bruceton in possibly a similar type game. I think both 2 and 3 games will be very close. I don't know much about Collinwood, but they are in the playoffs, so Cornersville better be ready. Last time they played was three years ago at Collinwood with them winning I think 8-6. MP against Mcewen should be a good game. MP is fairly physical and if they can play together as a team could be dangerous. McEwen appears to be the same way, but don't know much about them. 

    Huntland has solid linebacking core,  and a scrappy defensive line with not much size. If healthy the 1-2 punch of #6 and #4 is tough to handle especially when they go to the wildcat look. I strongly agree with Jobres on the Jekyl & Hyde thought for R5. Would shock me to see them take over this part of the bracket (aside from huntingdon) nor would it shock me to see them fizzle out to early.

    I think it will be a rematch of Mt P and Huntland in the second round, and hoping Cornersville can put together their best game for Huntingdon.

    Regardless, Cville and Huntland walk away with big first round wins.

    I think that makes it clear no one thought there was any issue.  I understand he was hurt early in the season and didn't play a lot or have a ton of impact after a knee injury.  Still played some.  If the school or family imagined in the slightest that there was any question, I don't think he would have played after the injury.

    The truly unfortunate thing is this kid wasn't an impact player, but it cost FV dearly.

    I disagree from the standpoint of the one game i watched fayetteville would not have won if he hadn't played, and almost didn't

    Also, they would very likely have gone undefeated without him, so it's not like they can rationalize that they wouldn't have done as well if this had been resolved up front. As it turned out, he wasn't a pivotal player for them this year.

    They don't beat Huntland without him, guaranteed.

    If FC gets rid of Mac Daddy then it proves it's a death trap! Mac has never had a losing season as a HC in 31 has a head coach until this year.  FC needs to stick with a coach like they did with Coach Carr, that's the only time the program was stable in the last 15 years! 

    Sticking with a coach would mean you support continuity? Same here, I also believe continuity is a key element needed to have sustained success at the high school level. Judging by your comment, so do you.

    Well I'm just gonna say this, FC has had the absolute least amount of continuity since Mac has been the head coach in the last two decades at FC, supplanted by maybe only the Lee Adkins era, which still featured several familiar faces at the assistant coaching level.

    How many years did Carr change OC & DC? Or change completely change the offensive and defensive scheme? Never, meanwhile Ole Macster has every season he's been at FC.
