You obviously drank too much sweet tea at shoney’s or something. City got kids all across the map that have played college ball.

but I digress, city wins. Closer than it probably should be, but expect Dresden to put up a fight that should keep them in the game until Atleast half time 

Nah went to honeys actually lol. Across the map? thats false lol cause basketball has only put out 3 and one of those was a transfer. Football only had a handful that has made it and that's only been in recent years cause Coach P didn't send but like 1 off to play and actually had his best player transfer out back then. Thomison will be the first to make it big time in football ( heck of a player love watching him play.) 

Finally something we can agree on..City wins and it wont be close

City has plenty of vocational education opportunities and has since the day it opened. Sounds like you regurgitate garbage the falcon club says. Kids aren’t missing out on any opportunities at city educationally, athletically, socially, vocationally , or otherwise. 

Falcon Club lol " why dont you say what you actually mean" 

City has never provided great opportunities for vocational skills since the doors opened. Socially they def are missing out on interaction with kids from a different back ground setting and that goes for both schools reason why segregating the schools was a terrible idea. They don't provide the same quality of high school education as county does. They lose teachers every yr and administrators because of how things are ran. How they fail to hire educators that can actually relate to those kids is mind boggling they have what two or 3 in the entire high school and probably not even 10 in the entire school system 

That blue ribbon award they got is because of collection of data on closing achievement gaps which goes back to demographics pretty much. Don't let them folks fool you like they all really are for your kids cause they get money for having kids of certain ethnicity. 

Athletically City has had special kids since 2011 but they dont help a lot of those kids reach the next level and get that free education most of those kids have a free ticket out and have been failed when it comes to resources. I do think they have gotten better when it comes to that area.

You totally missed my point. . But whatever 

You cant help ignorance bro you spitted straight facts. City high school education wise comes nowhere near LCHS. That student teacher ratio is true however City is losing teachers left and right each year due to how students are allowed to act their is no discipline on the daily bases. The segregation of schools has done nothing but hurt the youth of our community when it comes to diversity All that the school was to crowded is a joke if it was so overcrowded they shouldn't built a new LCHS high school but not splitting the schools but you only blame the big wigs of the town for that. The city kids miss out on several opportunities education wise and not exposed to as many as career choices such as shop classes. Its not all about sports but people fail to realize that. This town is drastically to small to have 2 high schools separated by a bridge and a stop light.

Use “Athletes” in quotes then talking about segregation, why don’t you go ahead and say what you want to say? Typical LC faithful. 

The term "athletes" is in quotation because that has been used by people form the community which is dastardly given everyone knows what folks are referring to when they say that. That's why you dont assume things and get pressed about stuff jumping the gun. It is segregation what else would you call it? 

Typical faithful? no I support the kids of both school here and have from the jump. Your just one of those typical city people who just assume everyone is against yall which is absolutely funny yall have convinced yourselves of that.

Let’s get serious. LCHS had 25 seniors this year and at least competed in 5A this year and should have won 4-5 games blowing 2nd half leads. None of the City Kids ever attended LCHS. Dresden Is outmatched in this game and will lose by 28 if not more. City has the athletes to win in Chattanooga. 

Agree and had the chance to knock off a few 6a teams. LC made huge improvements this year with getting a coach who actually cares. They got some talent in their young group and changes of classification even tho they stay 5a LC will be competitive now I’d say steadily. City does have a kid from county on there tho.

Your right 99 out of 100 yall get the win but you never know if that 1 time is the first time. I hope you have to eat a big piece of humble pie come Friday night. Serious question not trying to throw shade but how has Fayetteville school grown in numbers so much. Your sideline looks like a 5a school. I've been around High school football for several years and don't ever remember hearing about Fayetteville till 3 years ago. Now your going up to 2a. Good coaching hire? New factory? School consolidation? Just curious.

Haha nah you right thats why you have to play the game. best of luck

City first fielded a team in 13. 2019 started this run its just this is just one those groups that come through every so often in this town. The schools are split which everyone used to all be at Lincoln County high school which is the 5a school. City is at an advantage with having  all the  " athletes" in their school system and getting to play in 1a granted they beat 4a teams cause they have really good players. Basically legal segregation honestly not sure how it hasn't been looked into lol. 

These coaches have helped changed and shape that program and have got kids to come out and play for them. Def no new factory this town to small minded and good ole boy for bringing jobs in. This town has lost majority of its folks due to lack of jobs. This town used to be flooded with athletes from the 80- early 00s several pro athletes but being small handicapped this town. This will honestly prolly be one of the last special groups to come through for some time. 

The school def has seen an increase in population since opening in 11/12 but its not made that big of strides City will actually be one of the smaller 2a schools.

LC lost 6'4 lineman about 2nd game of year.Was hearing rumors that he may be back about this game but coach said Sat he was out for season.Was hoping just a few plays for depth.Was 4 year starter I believe.LC has played 3A and 4A and 2A schools this year so shouldn't be shell shocked.People going by scores from previous games.Well let's throw this out there.Just curious.Would most pick Mase to beat Melrose? Remember LC beat Central ,a team that just beat Melrose,Crockett Co and Dresden.Running back had 300 yards I was told.So I wouldn't overlook LC.They been on the field with better teams like Haywood without Day Day whole game and qb and wr most of game.Haywood is that good.Was no need to play them against Haywood.But the ones that did play didn't quit the entire game.And actually the whole first quarter LC did pretty darn well.Think they held Haywood first 2 or 3 series which a lot of bigger schools haven't done.

Think it comes down to trench play for you guys. If yall can withstand the size they present and not let it wear you down I think yall have a good opportunity. Their a good team but they aint world beaters. The team from MS showed that because that team wasn't all that and a bag of chips. 

Styles make fights and this will be a fight. Moore co will have a heck of a game plan much similar to how they played City. Best team Mckenzie will have faced since early on this season. Lot of people will disagree but Moore co will have the best player on the field friday night Mckenzie must figure out a way to handle him or this game gets spooky. Gonna be a heck of game tough to pick...been impressed with the Moore co all year but think they are still wet behind the ears and Mckenzie escapes in the 4th with having the experience of these moments. Mckenzie on to round 3 to welcome Fayetteville to town.

The lion cubs have been a pretender all year. Here goes you some bulletin board material.. This game is a waste of gas for everybody from Dresden yall have a better chance of winning this lottery drawing than coming within 5 scores in this game. Back to the same place it ended last yr for the cubs. Yall make sure to get your tickets in advance to watch City vs Mckenzie unless yall have a basketball game that night. City 58 - 13 Dresden only scores come on City jv. 

If MASE is anywhere near what they are supposed to be then they win this one by a couple of scores. This will be the biggest challenge MASE has faced up unto this point. Lake Co will have the speed to keep up not sure on size and not sure Lake Co has the depth to stand for 4qt. Two teams with different motivation in this one interesting matchup with Peabody looming.

I have watched both teams play LC has the size to match up and speed to stay with them but let me tell yall MASE is a very good team probably the best disciplined team I've saw come out of memphis the Turmon kid is an outstanding player on both sides of the ball they will play 2 QBs #3 & #14 who is a 8th grader yes #14 is in 8th grade and wow can he play both sides of the ball....Coach Miller has been around along time and has found his team to make a run Mckenzie is the only team I think that can compete with Mase!!!!!

Google Fayetteville City my guy.

Fay city plays in powder puff area.  They will be lucky to get through 2nd round.   

Blasphemy lol. This will be a waste of gas for the lion cubs with back to back years of getting put out in the 2nd round..once again in Fayetteville 

Dawson White #6 ..on the yr 1,516 pass yards with 15 TDs and 1,027 on the ground with 23 rushing TDs and doesn’t even give his defensive stats nor return yards. Momma there goes that man! Kid is unreal 

They better figure it out quick with that 8th group that got coming up before those kids go elsewhere

South Fulton makes history, a more epic & legendary win  than Vols beating Tide.. a generational-changing game.   The small-school Tenn HS football world will be turned on its head this Friday!  .. You heard it hear first.. & I got this solid Insider info from the snap, crackle, pop of my cereal, and the chirps of bugs & squak of chickens outside my window. Time to go to Vegas & push all in on the underdogs. Better returns than first buyers of Bitcoin! 

Sounds like you know them Dresden cubs season comes to an end next week at the same place it did last year

If basketball went to the same format as football with the same classes it would fix everything. But is the T$$AA willing to do away with all the District Tournaments in Basketball and go straight to region play?  I am not saying I am a fan of a 6 class basketball format but it would be as good if not better than what we have now. They should have taken the recommendation.

Thats the biggest problem the "non Profit" T$$AA wont do that heck they wont even pay the officials more which why the ones you get for games are terrible. I agree straight to regions or make it an area play this current model is not idea.

Travel for other sports with the 4 classes is a nightmare already. 7 classes and you would have two team districts.

I'm not saying we have to strictly go to 7 classes but classifications should be the same across the board period. Just get rid of districts and go to regions or area and it could workout. Nashville, Murfreesboro, Williamson Co, Memphis area, Chatt, Knoxville have enough schools with fair amount of same population in schools that put all of those schools in the same classification and you get rid playing schools twice your size and it becomes far more competitive especially post season. Just a thought. 

Looking at you guys on film it doesn't have that same look of a usual South Pitt team is an accurate reading or misconception? That being said I still have a hard time believing anyone in the east will have enough speed and talent overall to knock yall from going right back to UTC.

Why would they allow a team to sandbag in a lower class? This ain't slow pitch softball.

Why allow schools with populations of 2k and more compete vs schools who barley have 1200 kids that's a cakewalk so whats the difference for them? How does basketball have less classifications than football with more teams in basketball? Alabama has 7 classifications and you are in the same classification for every sport and its far more competitive than how its ran up here.  

LC ain’t the old team it used to be because of segregation of schools and the town has no jobs so majority of folks left out a long time ago. How be it was a Jamboree but LC beat City in that one. The town is to small with just around 35k people in the entire county for 2 high schools technically 3 count RCA that are less than 4 miles apart. City struggles to even field some teams such as baseball. They have been known to struggle finically as well even tho most don’t like to admit it. They honestly need to go back to having 1 high school with the numbers. LC struggles to compete having to play 5a ball but they have made huge strides since changing coaches this season and with new regions next that program will be better. A lot of talented freshman coming up. Having both schools I support both in the town you still have a lot of folks who hate city and those who hate county. The split down here is sad being it’s 2022

What is wrong with moving up??? TSSAA didn’t tell them to do that. 

If classes are to be split even then how are you allowed to be moved up because at that point its not even classes. If your going to allow them to move up then you should be allowed to move down in classifications. Or if a team decides that want to move up then the smallest school of the population should move down  so in this case it shows spring hill being the smallest 4a East moving up should give spring hill the option of moving down to 5a.

Schools requesting to move up a class is posted.

https://cms-files.tssaa.org/documents/tssaa/2022-23/2023classification.html 

Memphis East is the only school to move up a class in Baseball, Basketball, and Softball in Division 1. East is moving from Class 2A to Class 4A.

 

I know they've always have done this but how does T$$AA claim they split classes evenly when they let this happen. 

I know looking at tape doesnt give a true view on size but man SF is going to look like a middle school team compared to City. The first qt might not end. City biggest concern will be coming away healthy to get ready for round 2.
