I combined the best times of USJC, DL, FRA, Macon County, and MLK from steeple this year and put them in a head to head to head to head matchup. Of course FRA is the only team to run both TN classic and AF Bridges, so I took each varsity runner's best time from the Steeplechase course.

 

It comes out:

 

Lipscomb

MLK

USJC

FRA

Macon County

 

Macon County will play a huge role whether or not they win because they will take away spots that everyone else needs dearly. As usual, you are only as strong as your 5th runner, and USJC, FRA, and MC all have a 5th runner at or above 19 mins. Those times will go down I'm sure. What kills MC is that their 4th runner is the same speed as their 5th, unlike USJC and FRA where the margin between the 4 and 5 runners is 38 seconds and 69 seconds respectively.

 

Quick edit: DL and MLK are 1 point apart and USJC and FRA are 1 point apart. This truly is the closest I've seen of a state meet race ever.

those usjc times must be misleading though. the other teams got their best times during races where the conditions were much better. i would be surprised if at state usjc didnt drop 15 seconds from those steeplechase times at af.

 

 

I don't disagree with you on that point, but I also think that this shows that Steeple is a harder course than the one in SC where they absolutely owned.

    • Ouch! If he's in the scrap business maybe 
    • That's a nice story but has little to nothing to do with what we're talking about. 
    • The winds of change are blowing in Hartsville.     Will be an interesting follow.    Would go back to the 90s and turn black the clock!
    • Did he promise you a coordinator job or something if he ever got a head coaching job? He resigned? He was at the top of the dugout last night calling plays. I wonder if those 30+ parents would let him give their kids a ride. by the way the board meeting was last night and it was not mentioned. must have been at the work session earlier this week which is not public. must be trying to keep it quiet.  Since you know so much, how much is Robbie Atwood willing to pay Adam Cothron?  Didn't you slander Eden earlier on here? You also didn't know he was a faculty coach again so how much do you really know? Some people outside this county baffle me with their need to slander others.    
    • He resigned smh, and have you ever heard of charged but not convicted. Some people in this county baffle me with their need to slander others. Have you asked any of the 30+ parents that signed a petition to get him reinstated at the board meeting this week how they feel about this? Just let it play out, at the end of the day the only people that will bring TC back are the ones that know what its about at its core.    People hate losing and they aren't used to it at TC. I for 1, and I'm sure others too, understand having a dip in talent and not being able to compete for a state title every year. But in the past, TC teams have outworked more talented teams, they didn't continuously lose the turnover battle, they didn't commit 8+ penalties in several games each season, and I believe several of the folks in town that want Blake out feel as if he is neglecting the history of the program. This is from a source that used to be extremely close to the program (not me lol), Blake gets out of school midday and the players show up and there is no practice plan or itinerary.  I also understand those that are on team Blake, when he has loads of talent, he wins. He does know football and he is a tremendous DC, and if the rumors are true then he will do great things. As for the board member issue, it is what it is, everyone that's true to the county know that and nothing has changed. I agree though that they should strive to make the facilities as good as we can. And as far as potential candidates, I agree there is very few options. West, Vetetoe (yes I know), and couple others that could have some interest. Whatever happens is massive for the program during a pivotal time before the next big wave of stars make their way through.
