    He will have to gain some speed to be successful in our offense. He is an absolute bruiser and I wish at times we had utilized him a little more. My only critique of him is that he looks a little sluggish at times with the ball in his hand. Hopefully he makes some big strides this off-season and becomes a big contributor for us next year. He will be a stud LB next year for sure.

    Just imagine the Reeves kid at fullback and Rivers at tailback in a eye formation.

    He needs some footwork drills and speed drills including in his training.  Plus the offense they run in Huntingdon in for smaller quicker backs because of the tight splits of the offensive lineman.  

  3. I know 5 legit teams including private schools in Memphis that will be pursuing T Rivers to be a starting tailback for next season.  Might be a good look for him, he will get much needed exposure and will attend all the SEC and other division 1 football camps.

    Peabody played them first round in 2018 and 2019. They came off the bus looked impressive. During warmup their qb could throw 65 yards. They didn’t score a point either year. The only way they beat Huntingdon is if they have a bunch of transfers. 

    That team in 2018 and 2019 was Freshman and Sophomores, they had good skill players but lack the experienced lineman.  Fast forward to this year everyone is mostly seniors.  This will be the best team Huntingdon has played all year.  Just hope that the misdirection plays confuses MAHS defense.  By the way I live in Memphis.

  5. First i will say congrats to Huntingdon on all you accomplished this season.  I seen the Mustangs play  once in person this year against Colinwood.  First thing I said to someone after #7 carried the ball was why is he not  getting more carries.  Playing inferior teams brings a false sense of greatness.  #7 runs with a purpose, aggressiveness, and attitude.  So it mind boggles me on how he's not the focus of the offense.  

     

    I'm not caling for Coach Swenson firing because its no one I can think of as a good fit with the so called Huntingdon Family, (Most of the coaches either grew up in Huntingdon or have ties to the area).  Hiring someone not from the area wouldn't work because i dont think he will play politics and all the other BS that goes on in Huntingdon.

    Tell them shocker, seems FP is all talk.  Believe me, FP is afraid to hit the line, they scared of getting hit.

    Did you leave after halftime, Didnt hear much chatter about this undisciplined team.  The D1 prospects are underclassman, Freshman and Sophomores.  Yes Greenfield played very well in the first half but second half when they where smacked in the mouth the team and coached laid down. Quote from a few of Orange Mound's finest 8ball and MJG "lay it down lay it down etc etc etc"

    I don’t think Briarcrest, Kirby or Cordova could beat any of the 3. I didn’t include the Mississippi teams because they are in another state but they might be able to do something. Haven’t really kept up with them this season. 

    Horn Lake is #1 in the state in 6A, Oiive Branch not far behind, remind your Cordova is in 6A

    Nope throw Kirby out. This year for them and that’s it. Normal Kirby no. Houston no. Cordova is not even there now. Whitehaven yes. Germantown ehh this year and last year. Memphis central is hit and miss. Privates throw them out. Don’t hang your hat on them as the Memphis teams people are talking about in this thread. The point was undisciplined but good athletes.  So leave the privates out of the 10 you are looking for

    Are we talking about all time or just this year.  Private schools have to be included because these teams recruit heavily in the city.  Which is a big reason why all of the smailler teams are not as good.  Kirby is legit, they have been building something special under Coach Flowers

  9. I think Memphis schools get a bad rep because most of the people in upper west TN have only seen 1A and 2A Memphis teams play.  I know 10-15 teams in Memphis that could beat any team outside of Memphis in West TN.  but teams outside of Memphis will only schedule certain teams during the season.  The myth that most coaches in Memphis know about teams in rural areas is that everyone is good, well dicipline, and well coached.  Yes it is some good coaches but lets be honest maybe ten teams from 1A to 5A are legit,then you have a whole bunch of subpar programs.

    I'm actually from memphis but I have long followed Lake County.  Memphis teams cant play smash mouth football like Lake County does

    I agree Lake County is one of the best 1A programs in the area.  Playing smash mouth in 1A is not the hard with that schedule.  Don't put all Memphis Teams in one catagory.  You should know "its levels to this"

    Lake county gives FP equipment, shoulder pads, pays their gas and pays FP to play, yet they talk smack about northwest teams? We hat a joke!!

    I'm not a coach or a Fan of Prep, I'm actually from Huntingdon.  I live in Memphis and keep up with football in both areas.

    That’s a joke...what’s being implied is that the 3 games at LC were running clock games! I personally have yet to see this team? I do understand they are extremely young but supposedly there are 6...SIX D1 players? I’m super confused and if there is another team we have not seen why have we not seen them? How did y’all only score 20 on Westwood or was that team missing again? I know there’s nothing going with new players and such but it’s kinda turned into a joke here in the L! 

    We can pick out certain games from the schedules of all these teams,

    for example what happen to

    Lake County against Dresden

    Greenfield against Hollow Rock Bruceton

    Greenfield against South Fulton

    Are is it because 1A football in the area is very weak and the only decent team is Huntingdon  and everyone else is mediocre at best.

    Lake County your are above most teams up the way but I still have ????

    best win is a Gibson County win who lost in the first round of the playoffs

    Prep has gone out and got new players from other schools, just to play in the playoffs.  They went out and got the best players from other memphis schools just for the playoffs.  It will not be the same roster as earlier games.  Good luck Greenfield.

    When Prep wins Tomorrow dont let new players be a excuse.
