Top Receivers in Chattanooga

[oldtimeballer63]

The fact that walter dozier and joel bradford have to split catches and still are top 6 in the state proves that they are the best, temple hasnt played anyone, some of the teams they have played havent even won a game.

I don't think anyone is saying that Temple is better than McCallie. The two schools are in a class of their own. But for you to say that Temple has not played anyone is your own opinion. And to say that some of the teams that Temple have played "haven't even won a game" has nothing to do with how talented Skogen is or any other player on Temple for that matter.

What i am trying to point out that is if you play a crappy team with a crappy secondary you are gonna get a lot more yards passing then if you play a good team with a good secondary. strength of schedule has a lot to do with stats, you cant just blindly look at stats

I understand what you are saying, but for class 1a Temple is number 7 on the strength of schedule and success. At least give them some credit. We'll find out just how good they are when they play South Pittsburg in a few weeks.

Not really. South Pittsburgh is a 1A team too.

When looking at talent, you have to consider the level of competition. I know colleges do.

So, are you saying that South Pitt is not a good level of competition for Temple?

[nemoore]

I am tryin to say is that i doubt temple will even see a secondary as good as some of the ones mccallie has, taking that into mind means that temple will come by passing yards a lot easier then mccallie will

Colleges look at talent.......When they have a camp (which is a HUGE recruiting tool for them) they are looking at kids talent, skills, intangibles etc...

 

Just because an athlete goes to school at a small school or a big school, a school with a brick building or a school with a metal building doesn't mean they are or are not talented......now, playing tougher secondaries will change stats but stats are just numbers not necessarily a measure of talent

Well i kinda agree with you but not really on the stat part.... If you are a very good athlete and have to chance to play in college you WILL have good stats at some point in your high school career and thats a fact

 

Prove me wrong please...... not trying to start another argument here
