JUST CURIOUS WHO ARE SOME OF THE COLLEGE PROSPECTS FROM CLASS 1A IN MIDDLE TENNESSEE. THE LARGER CLASSIFICATIONS GET THE MEDIA ATTENTION, BUT THERE IS SOME AWFUL GOOD BALL IN SINGLE. EXAMPLE SPRINGFIELD, WHERE I LIVE COULD NOT HAVE STAYED ON THE FIELD AGAINST JO BYRNS. JO BYRNS WOULD HAVE BEATEN A 4-A TEAM HANDILY. GRANTED SPRINGFIELD WAS REALLY BAD.

 

IF YOU LOOK AT THE CLARKSVILLE REGION IN 4-A SCHOOLS LIKE MTP, JBS, COLLINWOOD, WAYNE COUNTY, CASCADE, GOORDINSVILLE, FCS TC, WATERTOWN, HERITAGE.WOULD HAVE HAD A GOOD CHANCE IN FINISHING AS HIGH AS THIRD.

 

IF YOU LOOK AT THE 3 A REGION WEST OF NASHVILLE--ALL THE TEAMS ABOVE WOULD NOT ONLY HAVE BEEN IN THE PLAYOFFS, BUT MIGHT HAVE HOSTED A PLAYOFF GAME. COLLEGES WITHING THE AREA SHOULD LOOK AT 1A IN REGIONS 4-6. MANY TEAMS ARE MUCH BETTER THERE THAN IN SOME THE HIGHER CLASSIFICATIONS. (REMINDER ALCOA A 2A TEAM ARGUABLY HAS BEEN THE SECOND BEST TEAM IN THE STATE ONLY BEHIND MARYVILLE. YES, I MEAN THEY WOULD HAVE BEATEN SOME OF THE RECENT 5-A CHAMPIONS)

 

I AM NOT TRYING TO DISRESPECT ANY 3 A OR 4A TEAMS. THE TOP NOTCH 3A AND 4A TEAMS ARE BETTER THAN THE 1A SCHOOLS. BUT 1A WOULD BE COMPETIVE AND WIN PLAYOFF SPOTS AGAINST THE SECOND TEAR TEAMS

I would love to see some of the Jo Byrns guys like #1, #7, #21, #33 "Go Peay!" In the 5 1/2 years I was at AP (no I am not a doctor!), I never went to a football game. I would be there every home game if they get on at AP. I would also like to see Marco go to AP. They have a program that is getting better by the year and all of these guys could contribute.

 

Could you imagine Shane at QB with rest of these guys to throw to? By the time they are Seniors they would have played 12 years together, except for Marco...but I'm sure they would catch on to each others rythm. OR any of these guys could be in the defensive backfield.

 

Hope it pans out!

Good luck to any high school athelete who gets an athletic scholarship or financial aid package. Alot of getting recruited goes to self promotion. No high school coach has the time to contact colleges or the money to send film around. A word to the wise if you want to play on the next level you need to start contacting college coaches and sending film by the spring of your junior year. Be realistic about your level of play. Very few high school players play D-1 or D-1AA. But, there is D-2, NAIA, and D-3. If you look at Tennessee and Kentucky there are at least 25 colleges or more playing football. Most important make sure academically the school fits you and the scholarship and aid money is there. I hope all the guys above and more get to play at the next level if they wish.
