It didn't take Mt. Pleasant long to get cocky. Don't forget where how good your program was before Walt got there!

I think of all schools Mt. Pleasant should know what a good, young, energetic coach can do for a program. True, Lynchburg doesn't have the same athletes that Columbia has...but I think Moore County will be a lot more competitive.

 

My bad for not catching this earlier. Cocky, what do you mean COCKY? MP can be cocky all they want until MC knocks them out. Back to Back to Back region 6A champions, 26 regions wins in a row, state playoffs 4 years in a row, one game away from the State Championship, returning Class A Mr Football, 95% of 2006 starting team returns back in 2007 & you call that cocky. THAT IS THE FACTS...... Athletes in Columbia have nothing to do with the football team in Mt Pleasant.

See yeah in the Jungle in '07.

 

if i remember correctly, mtp has an open zone right? so people from columbia are prob goin there

 

Get your facts together Monkey Man. Mt Pleasant Middle School has open enrollment not Mt Pleasant High School.

So is the high school rule..You may attend the high school if you attended the Middle School?

So the recruiting is done at the middle school level. That is the way all of the private schools do it. You really don't want a kid to come into a program in his junior or senior season. Talent is easy to spot in the 7th and 8th grades.

That is a good question. I'd like to know the answer...if you come from Columbia to play at Mt P middle school, which has open enrollment, can you go to Mt P high school as long as you attended the middle school? If you can, then MtP high really does have open zoning, whether they want to call it that or not. Who can answer the question? Inquiring minds want to know...

Mt Pleasant Middle School is called........... Mt Pleasant Middle School Of The Visual And Performing Arts. This is the only school in Maury County that has open enrollment. There are only 2 schools like this in Tennessee. There is another one in Williamson County (Avery Trace School Of The Visual And Performing Arts School) that is the same way. Mt Pleasant Middle School is to the 8th grade. After that if you are zoned as Columbia you have to attend a Columbia school.

 

Only reason the Middle School is allowed to do this is because it is a School For the Visual And Performing Arts.

Kris White would have to lose all desire to coach on a competitive level in order to leave Riverdale and go coach Pop Warner football in Lynchburg.

Thats like a baseball player who has spent time in the major leagues going to play sandlot baseball on Sunday afternoons.

It is what it is.......................

 

This has to be the most assanine statement I have ever heard.Whoever this needs to recheck their gauge on what is important in life.

 

Must have struck a nerve.......................

    • A complete cultural change happened at Greeneville and the administration and community opened up their checkbooks.  What a lot of people don't know is Ballard was Zeller's OC for many years and stopped coaching for two years because Zeller and Ballard didn't see eye to eye on some things.  Zeller lead Greeneville to it's first ever Semi Final appearance in 2000 and lost 28-12 at Maryville and had them in the Quarter Finals in 2002 and 2003.  Z was a great coach but lost some control when it came to making workouts mandatory. (He learned from that Mistake and it was at LC when i coached with him.).  Z was let go going into my Senior Year and was replaced by Steve McCurry who was the one that turned the program around.  Steve had won a 4a state championship at AC Reynolds in Asheville and made the administration completely redo the weight room with new equipment, had a football period at the end of the school day to lift, started devil camp, and brought in coaches like Danny Bentley (Still the OL coach), Ballard as the OC, Cody Baugh (QB coach and still there), and even Spradlen who is Greeneville's head coach now as the DB's Coach.  McCurry only coached for two seasons at Greeneville and took a team that had a losing record the year before and finished my Senior Year making it to the Quarters and having a 10-3 record and then followed it up with a Semi Final appearance the next year with an 11-3 record and back to back conference championships.  Loved McCurry to death but the recession hit and the story i heard was he was still buying new equipment for the team that the Principal didn't authorize and his response was "I don't answer to you and only to Niswonger and Bewley" (Two huge donors).  That was it for him and they Promoted Ballard shortly after that.   Greeneville had always been relevant ever since the the late 70's under Coach Fred Sorrell's.  Since Sorrell's took over in 1977 Greeneville overall winning percentage is over 76%.  The biggest reason people might not have thought Greeneville was "Good" until Ballard was Greeneville always played up Classification wise and could never get over the hump. (When there were 3 classifications we played 3a, when it went to 5 we played 4a).  Greeneville is the largest its ever been with 953 students and where playing teams 2 or 3 times there size back in the day (I had a little over 800 kids in the school when i graduated in 2008).  Other teams always would know they would be sore after a game but depth took over and never won a Championship until Greeneville played in the classification the TSSAA actually assigned them. You had names like Dustin Moore (1993 Mr Football for 3a and who Phillip Fulmer said was one of the greatest athletes he ever recruited), James "Mud Turtle" Mayes, Brigham Lyons, Byron Gillespie, Frankie Debusk (National Champion Qb at Furman with GQ), Jasmine Lowery, Cody Baugh, The Greenway Brothers, Joe Watson (Furman), etc.  Now the cultural is from the Pee Wee league up and you grow up as a young kid wanting to wear the Greene and White.  Here is a really good link when it comes to anything Greeneville Football related. https://greenevillefootball.com/   I also don't coach anymore.  Z told me i was to smart with how the school systems are ran these days and ended up going into real estate in Knoxville which has been a great decision for my life.
    • Yes, they will. I'm wondering what kinds of strides Sale Creek will make heading into the second season under Coach Fitz.
    • No yellow stripes on the rug last night. Biggest crowd I’ve seen at 825 since the alco debacle. 
    • I know most Pirate starters were seniors last year. Im not sure how accurate it is but someone said we only have 3 seniors. That Prep team will probably make some noise this coming season too.
