I know Halls has not started hitting yet, but does anyone know how the first few days of practice have gone? The skill guys looked fair in the passing league. How do the lineman look?

 

I will try to get to a practice one day this week. I am also planning to go to DB this Friday.

 

Does Clinton have any scrimmages this week?

I had to go back a few pages to find this thread. Not much talk lately about this matchup. I guess most consider it a blow out.

 

I have seen one Halls practice and two scrimmages. i now think Halls might be be a playoff contender. I am not sure how many 5A teams get in from our district. I think it is three. Clinton would have to be considered the favorite for #1. Halls, Central, AC and Powell are probably in the running for the other two spots. I think CC is the only other 5A school. I have heard they might be down a little this year, but I am not sure.

 

As for the Clinton - Halls game: Halls has done well against a couple good opponents in scrimmages, but I still think Clinton has too many weapons. Halls would have to find a way to outscore Clinton and I don't see that happening based on the two scrimmages. (3 Tds for the first string) I would have to say Clinton by 2 TDs. I will still be pulling for my Red Devils. Who knows? a couple of INT's by the quick Halls secondary and things could get crazy.

I said this a month ago before all the scrimmages started......Halls is a very dangerous team to start the season off with. You never know which way the ball is going to bounce. I believe Halls is going to be in the top 3 of the district when the season is over. :thumb:

I don't know if Halls is good enough to strike fear in anyone, but they are playing better football. So far, they are playing pretty stingy on defense and, with an improved passing attack, the offense might put up a few more points.

 

We'll see.

 

Clinton, Seveir Co, Powell, Webb and Oak Ridge make for a pretty tough first half of the season.

Having a good defense will keep you in alot of games, and if the score is close....anything is possible!

    • A lot of people don’t realize how valuable JMO was. QB, safety, punter and holder on pat’s. Kid did it all. I fully believe if he was healthy Dburg would have made it to the ship last year. 
    • If Dyersburg quarterback who is also starting safety hadn’t got hurt it would of another blowout 
    • For perspective the county school I’m associated and graduated from only has 7,600 people in the entire county with a median age of roughly 47. That’s not very many 14-18 year olds to choose from. I think the football team had 25-28 kids or around there.  On the other hand Shelby County has 916,000+ with a median age of 36. This isn’t just about Shelby county, but all the big ones with huge economic advantages!  An urban/rural split would benefit tons of smaller schools that have to compete with counties with 120x the amount of people. Especially the ones who can pick and choose their players from a pool like that!   I also agree with Pujo about charter and magnets and they will eventually be phased into the private divisions because it is obviously an advantage plus all the funding! Add that county schools can’t go recruit outside of their county like charters and magnets! 
    • They should be starting next week and go from there.  They never do Spring Practice in April
