wanted to start this thread to get away from the westview/henry co. thread. the advisor wanted to talk about legacy. MILAN'S legacy is already etched in stone being as they are the winningest program in west tennessee and 4 GOLD BALLS ain't too shabby either. 29 straight playoff appearences numerous district, region and bowl titles.

JOHN TUCKER. who was once the winningest coach in tennessee til he was surpassed by a privateer who recruited players and scheduled cupcakes. i'd say MILAN pretty much sums up the word legacy in west tenn football.

I'd pretty much agree with all that. When talking about West TN and winning Milan is in class all by themselves. I really don't think any other team is close. The gap is pretty darn wide when you get down to it.

Agreed. The Dawgs always seem to win. Even if they dont have the best athletes they still find there way to win. When they do have the all star athletes....well that is when they put up those special seasons. For Milan every year that there isnt a championship of some kind ,whether it be the gold ball or the region crown, it is considered a failed season. When a program gets to these expectations, then it truly does have a Legacy.

I would agree that Milan is one of the storied programs in West Tennessee. But when you say that John Tucker was passed by one of those privateers you only appear to be a Milan Homer. I am from on of the most accomplished privateer programs in the state, however you do not hear me saying that my coach got passed by a public school coach who recruits just like the private schools. You might need to know a little about how privateers, as you call them work, before you start bashing them. Not only that most of your privateers played in classifications well above there enrollment back when public and private were together.

tucker made winners, he didn't recruit them.

      Who vandalized Maryville's Football Field?

      By strongx · Posted

      Sorry Barn. I wasn’t specific enough. It seems I’m always protecting the principal at 825. My interactions with her have been extremely positive, but very limited. With all the other stories being told, I’m confident there are other sides I am not aware of. Regardless, there are lots of decent people earning good checks up there. Maybe too good, which explains why no one is willing to speak up. My beef is with the poor communication among the athletic programs and with the administration. Seven years ago the poor communication led to my son missing graduation due to a sporting event that was planned months before. I chalked it up to the system being totally shocked that the baseball team made it out of their district, and our then AD was a football coach. Maybe they were surprised and did not plan appropriately. That was more palatable than they just didn’t give a crap. Déjà vu, seven years later, same thing. Different administration, but same result.  Maybe in seven more years, it will actually be “about the kids”. They should do better.

      That's a fair line. But if it's not over, that's a big problem.

      RR, you think that changes this year, or at least improves? I know they had a couple of talented young receivers last year that made some plays later in the year. Defensive back was a struggle against any team that was above average at throwing the ball.

      You would think with football just three months away more would be talking. There's only so much a person can say about someone allowing the field to get painted without asking their boss who would have said ((((((((  ALE NO ))))))))) or all the other BULLS#!T they've done as they lead Maryville High into the new age of WOKE in a conversative town. I'm ready for some football news without hearing something coming out of 825 that Power Munger has done to cap off the week.
