Oh yeah, just need to somehow replace a Jawon Odoms. Sheesh. Lol. Need a playmaker receiver or two.

Yes sir, I'm 1000% rooting for Oak Ridge. I normally don't root for the East team but I think all of Henry County is rooting for y’all!!

Absolutely man! Not bad if you are going to lose to a 6A and 5A team that are both in Cookeville and we did beat a 4A team that is now in Cookeville.

Yeah obviously.

Wow. I expected to come to these boards seeing positive things. Henry County played a very hard fought game and just ran into a 5A giant with some really really good players. Congrats to Summit.

Henry County 7 Summit 7 Halftime!!

I'm talking about the beginning of the season. Before anyone knew that Memphis wasn't going to be playing. We are a VERY young team. So yes, we are not supposed to be in the semifinals. Several sophomores are playing huge roles for us this year. You can go back and look at the Henry County Offseason 2020 thread and see where a lot of Henry County fans was saying the next 2 years are when we feel we have a legit shot. Nobody that I know of thought we had a legit shot to make it to Cookeville this year. All we got to do is win ONE game and we are in Cookeville

Yes sir let me post a link

Hey! When you fire me up, look out!!! I'm ready to bust some heads!!!! Ask Coach if they can put me in?

Yall know something that is 100% facts? Henry County was not supposed to be in the semifinals this year. We was supposed to be rebuilding this year in preparation for the next 2 years (which is our best shots of getting a gold ball) and Summit is supposed to be here. They was in the championship game just last year with the Wade boys back. Most people expect them to be in Cookeville. BUT........WHAT IF......Henry County pulls it off and ends up in Cookeville in a year we was not supposed to???? I think we are ready for that challenge!!! LET'S GO!!!!

https://www.tennessean.com/story/sports/high-school/2020/11/24/tssaa-football-playoffs-semifinal-statewide-preview/6308030002/ There is the link. One guy picked Summit 38-14. Just scroll down to 5A.

Some are more confident than others but make no mistake about it, this team has made huge strides since playing Brentwood. Like I said earlier there is a LOT of people out there saying Summit wins. And some say Summit wins in a blowout. One thing about it though the Big Red WILL be ready to play! Going to be awful tough to go on the road and beat Beech and Henry County in back to back weeks.

Thanks bud! Going to be a good one I think. Anybody brave enough to throw a prediction out there? Lol

Happy Thanksgiving to all my Coach T Family!!!

My thoughts exactly. There is however a lot of people that don't believe HC can win this game. I kinda like the underdog role.

Both teams will get theirs. The key to the game in my opinion if we can control the clock and time of possession. This game could be like a Beech/Henry County game in the fact that it could be a somewhat lower scoring game. (Low 20s) We don't have to worry about putting up 50 points anymore. It's just survive and advance. We need a long drive that eats up lots of clock. (Similar to what happened in last weeks 1st quarter with NE)

this has potential to be one of the best games of the season. Im excited for our guys to have the challenge of an opponent of Summits caliber.

Oh wow. If he does play he would possibly be a game changer if he is anywhere close to healthy. Either way though we will line up and see what happens. One game to have a shot at a gold ball. I will take it!

Yeah you are right! I never thought about it like that. Very cool.

Possible. The other Wade brother I don’t think will play. Somebody said he was in a boot last Friday night.

My opinion no, the Summit WR is not as good as Jawon. He is good no doubt though.

Probably #13 Brady Pierce

Absolutely! It will take a big time effort from our defense but the same can be said for Summits defense against our offense! I'm just excited to see two excellent teams go to war this Friday night. This is what high school football is all about!!!!!!

It will be amazing. Summit has some ballers for sure. If anybody can beat Summit I truly believe this Henry County team can. I don't think Wade will run around freely like he did against Beech. Time will tell i guess.
