Region 7-5a. Does ANY team EVER come out of there? :thumb:

 

Ridgeway lost in the semi-finals last year to Ravenwood,overall I would agree with you,it is not the strongest region in the state,but if Iam not mistaken Millington knocked off the number 2 seed in 8-5a in last years playoffs and 8-5a is to some the strongest region in the state,I think with Ridgeway,Millington,Bolton,Cordova,and Bartlett the next couple of years should be be alot better.

Region 6 is usually pretty top heavy (FHS, RHS, BHS, then the rest are below ave to awful) This year I'm not even sure how top heavy it is. BHS appears to be pretty down but will make the playoffs because the rest of the region is it's usual weak self. RHS is struggling (yes, I know they barely lost to BA, but they also got smoked by Antioch and Father Ryan in scrimmages)...that leaves Franklin to probably walk away with it. Independence appears to be on the upswing, but not yet a contender playoff-wise and Dickson will probably be average as usual.

Oh...and then there are the "never-rans" of the region...Columbia, NE and Centennial.

 

Haha, ah, how little you know about our little region.

 

For starters, scrimmages mean as much as preseasons do in the NFL. According to your logic, Indianapolis and Pittsburgh are going to have horrible seasons, based on preseason.

 

Next, Independence will be in the playoffs this year, and I can see them easily making a quarterfinal run. After all, its not as if region 5-5A ever has anyone (outside of Gallatin) who really does well in the playoffs.

 

Lastly, two of those "never rans" in the region joined the region last year. You hardly give anyone time to do anything, do you?

 

Centennial, on the other hand, has no excuse, and deserves all the criticism in the world.

I didn't mean that Ind. wouldn't MAKE the playoffs, I meant they won't make a run IN the playoffs yet (and no...they won't make the quarters). Agreed...scrimmages don't count, but if you think Rector didn't care about losing to Antioch and Coach Woodward, you need your head examined. I was there. This was played like a game and it wasn't much of one. The score was closer than the game itself. Ravenwood may get better and, yes, considering the region, they will make the playoffs, but Franklin is the only one who will make noise this year. I don't care what region teams were in, Columbia's never had much and NE hasn't since Travis Stephens left. The point is this though....this region typically has 3 teams and a bunch of others. The top 3 have been as good as anybody the last several years...the rest are, again, below ave. to awful. Given another year or 2, it will be those 3 and Ind. and the rest might as well start wrestling and playing basketball.

    • Yeah I am on board and plan on coming down from the Ridge for some home games, great Friday night atmosphere there.  I'm really hoping SC can get them back going and have some success for those fans and community.  
    • Yep I was field level on the scoreboard end throwing ball with Benny when we had that brief lead. Everybody got very excited but it was short lived as Murvil regrouped and went into machine mode. But yeah,  that hit sounded like the crack of a black powder rifle being fire.  I believe Dozier took one like that as a Soph up at Greeneville after on olay block.  
    • Ole Benny boy lol. I forgot about Harder. He was tough as crap. He graduated in ‘09. I went to the OR/Maryville game that year (great game, btw) and he collided with Jacob West (I think was his name) and you could hear it clearly at the top of the visitor bleachers. Man, it was a stick. He could lay some wood son. All those guys were tough, Elliott included.
    • They do have good community support for sure and did when I coached under Z for 4 years. (I was on that staff that turned them around a little from winning 1 game a year to actually being competitive).  Great Kids and Great Community over there.  They have done some good things with the facilities from when i coached too. 
    • I personally will not mind that one bit.  It seems like a really strange fit to me from the git go.
