Metro Nashville Football 2010

Not really. Yours didnt happen and wasnt going to happen. At least mine has a lottery chance since you want to be so realistic.

You're wrong

He usually is.

Another spoonful of air.

The team that I believe will make the deepest push in Metro/Nashville this upcoming season is Pearl-Cohn

 

The Firebirds return just about everyone from a team that is 1 yard at David Lipscomb away from winning the District Championship this past season. They return all of their skilled guys on offense. They also return a line that got better and better as the season progressed on both sides of the football. On defense they return 3/4 of their secondary. If they can somehow replace 2/3 of their linebackers who are graduating in 2 months then they can be a team that makes a deep run in the playoffs and possibly plays Alcoa for the Class 3A State Championship.

 

I say that because the west half of the playoff bracket in 3A this next season appears to be somewhat "down". Milan, Smith County, York, & Camden Central all suffered some tough losses to graduation and I look for a possible matchup between Pearl-Cohn & Manassas (who returns 2 outstanding backs in 2010) in the state semifinals to determine who comes out of the western half of the bracket.[/quote

 

They also have some great talent coming from Bass Middle.

I'm not even going to try to touch some of these. However:

 

1. Terry Anderson

2. Maurice Fitzgerald/Ron Aydelott

4. HHS 2001/HHS 2002

5. Pearl-Cohn 1997

7. Joe Sanders/Chris Russell

8. John Henderson

9. Terry Hemontolor

[BoardHater71]

1.) Terry Anderson

2.) Maurice Fitzgerald

3.) Maurice Fitzgerald

4.) Hillsboro 2003

5.) Pearl-Cohn 1997

6.) John Overton 1981

7.) Frank Omiyale

8.) John Henderson

9.) Tommy Wilson

10.) Dorris Armstrong

 

 

 

John Henderson's senior season was in 1997 which was more than a decade ago

[workinprogress]

1. Have to say Terry Anderson.

2. Pigue or Fitzgerald

3. Coutras

4. Hillsboro 03/04

5. Pearl Cohn with Henderson

6. Overton 1981

7. Not sure on the year of Henderson so him if its within the decade, Fite for same reason, or recently

Dontell Watkins. Not a big name but just ran a 4.26 for Utah State's combine. Played at AHS.

8. Not nearly old enough to comment.

9. Hemontoler or Peden. Reese maybe just because of his background at TSU.

10. Hard to argue with Doris. Jim Fuller has been awfully loyal and consistent.

Metro has had some good coaches, players, and teams which makes it pretty hard to narrow some of these questions down.

Bleacher had some really good responses and his knowledge obviously goes back farther than mine.

[workinprogress]

Bleacher you always have good knowledge. What are your opinions on the job openings in metro?

Fite graduated in 2000. Henderson graduated in 1998.

5.) Pearl-Cohn 1997

7.) Frank Omiyale

8.) John Henderson

9.) Tommy Wilson

10.) Dorris Armstrong

 

 

 

John Henderson's senior season was in 1997 which was more than a decade ago

 

 

 

 

1.) I say Terry Anderson because every year his teams seem to be competitive. They play in the largest classification and have been to the state playoffs 7 of the last 9 years.

 

2.) I say Maurice Fitzgerald because he won back-to-back state titles and no other coach in Metro/Nashville football history can say this.

 

3.) Refer to #2

 

4.) The 2003 Class 4A State Championship Hillsboro Burros were a force winning their final 14 games in route to a state title. The 27-26 semifinal win over Melrose was one of the better games ever played.

 

5.) The 1997 Class 4A State Championship Pearl-Cohn Firebirds were a dominant football team. They won their final 14 games and from the opening round through the state semifinals in the playoffs they did not allow a single point against Shelbyville, Whites Creek, Springfield, & Dyersburg.

 

6.) The 1981 Class AAA State Championship John Overton Bobcats were a great football team led by a dominant defense and their finest effort came on the biggest stage in the state title game shutout victory over Rhea County 3-0.

 

7.) Frank Omiyale was an all-state offensive tackle at Whites Creek High School who went on to start at Tennessee Tech for 3 years before being drafted by the Atlanta Falcons in 2004. He now starts at left tackle for the Chicago Bears.

 

8.) John Henderson was an all-state tight end/defensive end at Pearl-Cohn High School who went on to start at Tennessee before being drafted by the Jacksonville Jaguars. He is now a Pro Bowl level defensive lineman in the NFL who is among the highest paid players at his position in the entire league.

 

9.) Tommy Wilson is an assistant football coach at Pearl-Cohn High School

 

10.) Dorris Armstrong is an assistant football coach at Maplewood High School

7. Not sure on the year of Henderson so him if its within the decade, Fite for same reason, or recently Dontell Watkins. Not a big name but just ran a 4.26 for Utah State's combine. Played at AHS.

 

 

Fite graduated in 2000. Henderson graduated in 1998.

Thanks! I'll go with Fite then for best in the last decade. He was a heck of a player. How are things shaping up with the burros? Who will be on the staff and who are some of the better looking players at this point? Making the playoffs just got a lot harder for you all. I wonder if the administration had known how things would turn out if they would have still joined the Williamson County schools? The money and competition are great but your chances of making the playoffs just went way down.

4.) The 2003 Class 4A State Championship Hillsboro Burros were a force winning their final 14 games in route to a state title. The 27-26 semifinal win over Melrose was one of the better games ever played.

 

 

THAT was a game for the ages! Still probably the single most exciting football game I have seen at any level. Unfortunately, it was ultimately the end of Calvin Bryant's football career.
