Henry County vs Northside

Recommended Posts

As an avid Patriots fan my opinion is one sided to put it mildly, but when considering the upcoming battle with Northside you must consider that this game will ultimately end up being a battle between the disciplined versus the undisciplined.

 

After handing the game to Martin Westview early in the season, the Patriots have become a well oiled machine. No one can deny that the offensive line of the Patriots has gelled and is working as one unit. This affords opportunity for #1, #34, and #20 to excel and gain phenominal yards against all opponents since the Martin game.

 

A lot of people are trying to compare Marsalis to Calvin of last years team. There can be no comparison, as both are outstanding athletes, but are totally different in the way they manage their game. To present, Marsalis is a smooth operator; smart, athletic, and to say the least fast. He manages the offense like a true quarterback should and demonstrates his abilities each play. His passing to #22, #16, and others is improving each game and has burned many oponents already.

 

The offense is one unit and that can't be denied.

 

The defense, well, they are shutting down opponents game plans. Period. Led by big Lamar and Singleton, they are having fun.

 

The entire team is performing as a well disciplined team and this is what has elevated them to the level that they are demonstrating in their play.

 

Northside struggled with teams throughout the season this year. I saw them play against Mumford and felt that they beat them on the field, only the scoreboard didn't agree. Mumford won the game. I feel only because Northside was undisciplined in their play. I feel that they are a very talented team and no doubt have a good running or scat back.

 

This game will get down to discipline. If the young men on the Patriots team continue to play disciplined football, they will come out of the game victorious.

Keep up the hard work and GO PATS!

Who are our college prospects and who are they talking to? Any word

 

 

Geez, this is a slow moving thread this week. Maybe its just because of the cool weather and rain. Come on Yanker, what are your thoughts on this one?

 

College prospects from the Patriots are mainly Lamar Theus (DT) for this year's class and Dominique Allen (RB) for next years class. There probably are others, but these are the main two that I keep hearing info about.

We've got to stop the comparisions becasue they are different people at different times. also calvin is better than it sounds like your making him out to be thats why he's playing on saturdays. But anyways we got to stay focused and I think the boys will. Hopefully we won't have the same weather as last year when we played them lol

You are so right here both teams will be up to the challenge for these games. I have no doubt about either one of these going our way. Time to finish up Pats. /thumb[1].gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":thumb:" border="0" alt="thumb[1].gif" />

Mann is The Man, he's truly big league

Better,by far, than Allen or Teague.

Thus sang most pundits this sad little song;

So gather, Red Nation, to see them proved wrong.

I seldom post but read the forum frequently. Where are the red faithful? I hope no one (fans) is taking this game for granted!!! I know the players won't! We (the fans) can NOT afford to sit idly by this week. Anything can happen on any given friday night. Please come out and bring the bells and horns as the team works their way to a region title. It is senior night and they deserve your support.

 

Mann is the real deal but one player does not make a team nor win a game by himself. The patriots have been playing as a TEAM since the ONE let down of the season. I am confident that they will continue their mission together and show Mann and company what they are made of.

 

What type of offense does Northside run? Is it all Mann or do they have any other players to look at? Do they pass at all? I hear their d-line is huge. How do they compare to the patriot line? Are they very deep or do many play both ways? I've noticed we are playing more players both ways so I don't know that depth really matters. What do you think?

Poetry at its finest! The Red Nation will gather to see how Mann can handle being covered in a Red Swarm!!! Followed up immediately by multiple TD's from #3 and #34...

 

Red Patriot, don't stray so long from posting. We need your support on here as well. Part of the lack of posters may be that it is fall break. But I am confident that come Friday night, the Red Nation will be gathered screaming and yelling and ringing those bells!

    • Lol! I was being a bit facetious. 
    • Way late on this post, but I do believe that I want to at least weight in so to speak lol. I wrestled NAIA competed against some of the best wrestler over all a crossed the divisions and felt great about my college wrestling experience. I think people make the mistake in believe that wrestling some how gets easier as a sport at the smaller college divisions it doesn't the training is mostly the same. I have that on good authority from a coach who was a D1 all-American. it's more the commitment level of the competitors that is different. There is talented wrestlers that can go D1 at any level in the smaller division. sub in Sammy Shires for one he would have done fine on a DI team. He chose a work life ratio that suited him. It's not about talent it's commitment are you going to make training and studying the sport the center of your world cause that's what it takes: NO MATTER HOW TALATENTED BEFORE HAND YOU ARE.  If so then D1 is for you and striving for success at that level is for you like Mr. Palmer said it's what your willing to put in. Now coaches if you have a successful wrestler who fits that bill then by all means D1 is a great option they will see some success no matter how small, but if they are not that committed along with being talented and a killer and you know it then your doing them wrong.  You don't have to tell athletes that you don't think they are D1 tell them to keep their options open to take all their visits to consider all the divisions regardless of their goals. college recruiting visits have you most times wrestle against their current wrestlers coaches and athletes  will find out real quick it's not easy no matter where you go. That way when they make their decision it's a sound one that's based on well rounded experiences.     BobCorker, and oceansize42 I believe what you are thinking is correct but for different reasons. TN wrestler's have the talent... it's a commitment level change. TN wrestlers aren't used to having to put themselves through the level of commitment required and kills them on the D1 level.    WrestlingGod, I agree you should push kids to pursue their dreams, but not at the cost of common sense period... we have to much of that going around this country already. Dreams can turn to poison when these wrestler are not educated on what it truly takes. In TN  a kid who understands wrestling to a high level can be successful with small amounts of hard work. They think their definition of hard work is enough for D1 that is the mistake not the "talent/understanding".  Over-all though we do not celebrate NAIA,D2,D3, or Juco success in this state like other states do. GA/AL celebrates all it's college wrestlers success a crossed the  board no matter the division. Why? because it's hard... I have gone to all the divisions National championships let me tell you to be a all-American at any is impressive especially D2 or NAIA. those guys can scrap and not one of those AA's are an easy match. all of them were state placers or champs multiple times in their high school careers. does that at all sound easy to place at? TN does not give those guys enough credit or shout outs period. it's an over sight because of this D1 or it's less than meaningless   mentality on this site and in this state. GA/AL is better then us on the highest stage because they send guys to D2,NAIA,D3 ect. they come back understanding the sport better then their pervious coaches, and give back and that cycles to athletes readiness to go D1 with clearer understanding of what it takes to be competitive day 1 freshman year.             My post isn't to support one way or the other but to just consider that both sides have merit and that both work when the system in TN. by system I mean coaches are the better educated on preparing athletes for each level they want and should pursue.        
    • If you think McKenzie could've beat Riverside I have a bridge you might like to buy. 
    • Hate to hear Ricky is heading to the old folk's home!
    • By recruiting, I mean members of a coaching staff are talking to, meeting with, giving tours, to students, and their guardians, that are not zoned for their school.    there’s no way that many non Bearden kids just showed up all at once without being recruited. It can’t be a coincidence that all those kids also went through the middle school all star game your boss puts on every year.
