According to your link he is a top fifty "athlete" not recruit. Rivals ranks the players at each position and athlete is one of the positions that they rank. Teague is not ranked in the rivals top 250 recruits so his rank could be anywhere between 300 and 800.

 

not to start anything but, teague from henry co. has offers from florida, miami, vanderbilt, tennessee, clemson,michigan, Lsu and so on, so i definately know he's got moves. in fact bobby johnson came to watch teague play along with numerous scouts from different schools.

i knew i should've added "at his position of athlete" to save confusion for some people.

that does not compare to tavarres that guy might have the spped that tavarres has but not the moves. he does probably have the better arm

 

 

How can you say he doesn't compare, I can't even find Jefferson on Rivals anywhere. I'm not saying the kid can't play because he can. However, he doesn't have the speed(4.4) or arm Marsalis does and I'm not sure the moves either. You don't have to make a move when nobody can catch you. Also, Marsalis carries a 4.0 and has offers from Vandy,Stanford, & Duke to go along with the SEC & ACC power programs!

Certainly not to get anything started but this is more for transplant mom who had resorted to calling children names on the last Ensworth thread. Glad it was closed down. I think Tavarres would play rb back given his size, however he may have some more growing to do. Friday night an MBA parent told me BEFORE the game that Tavarres had on his Facebook in his by-line: Tavarres Jefferson is prayin' for my boy Sloan who's hurt, keep your head up. Acknowledging the Sloan kid's injury and lack of presence on the field Friday night...now that's class. Likewise, an Ensworth teacher told me last year, that Sloan had sent a note to Tavarres after he was hurt telling him he was praying for him and he would be missed in football and basketball and included a couple of gift cards. It does not matter what your zip code is that's a gentleman. I was at the game Friday night and watched 82 Sloan on crutches as he shook hands and hugged Jefferson as well as some other players. Maybe a few MBA boys did not shake hands this year and maybe a few Ensworth players did not last year, but let's focus on those who do the right things, the others will mature in time even if the parents have not. Both teams have much of which to be proud. Best of luck to Jefferson who very deservingly will no doubt get a scholarship offer at some level whether it will be SEC is tough to know.

 

Nice post, and two very classy acts (and young men). I had assumed sportsmanship was dead; perhaps it's just on life support.

I can't believe somebody questioned marsalis havin moves. When everybody sees he has the ball they stand up. They know somethin is bout to happen thats gonna make you say WOW. He has around 700 yards rushin and only has around 30 carries give or take a few. But that's a crazy average. And he has to share the balls with 2 other really really good backs.

These guys don't have a clue patriot about Marsalis. Just because he doesn't go to a prestigious private school or play for a big metro area school they think its just hype or homers talking him up.

While I understand what you are saying, and respect that as well, I believe it is school spirit and support talking through these kids. Marsalis is an excellent player, but every school would like to think that their player is the best. Both Tavarres and Marsalis are great players, and will do great things, so kudos to both of them.

On a similar note, Jefferson was invited to the Jeff Fisher Show tonight, I believe as player of the week or something along those lines. He will be attending, along with his Offensive Linemen who he invited to come with him. It's refreshing to see someone with his talent who realizes that they can't do it on their own, and shows his appreciation to those around him.

no one question he had anymoves at all. just saying tavarre has more. he is easily a better thrower than tj.

and when i say dual athlete im not talking just on the football field im talking bout football and basketball. this kid could play either in college and go to great colleges for both.

      Who vandalized Maryville's Football Field?

      By BarneySox2007 · Posted

      I remember very well watching things change in the late 80's and yes it's all schools. Most people that are in charge today have any idea because they were raised and taught under this social experiment so they don't have a clue. Anyone that does see the truth for what it is usually try and hide it by blending in so that the School Gestapo doesn't round them up and take them to the Fuhrer ( kindly putting it ). Yes it is all schools not just Maryville. This train ride is not headed in a good direction and if the public had seen a movie of what's happening now back in 1980 everyone would have been headed home afterwards to change underware.

      You are so correct!  It’s really 99.9% of academia want to change to way that education is not only taught but the way it is viewed.  The pendulum has definitely swung as far to the left as possible and eventually will swing to the right much too far.  I have always  said that politics and one’s personal religious views need to stay out of education,  but for the last 40 years education has been running full throttle to what we have today.  If the social experiment that we are currently experiencing continues it is only a matter of time before the public school system in the USA completely collapses and all kids attend private schools or even worse don’t go to school.

      He was a bruise but Aaron Dykes is HVA’s best RB ever.

      I am talking about what they both did for their team. They both carried their team for four years while they were both there. I wasn’t really comparing them that would be unfair. Bishop is on a level of his own.
