Govolsknox Posted December 6, 2010 Report Share Posted December 6, 2010 I thought it would be interesting to see what the top 10 - 15 teams in 3A from 2010 think about their prospects for 2011. How many returning starters do you have on offense and defense? What do you see as your strengths next year? What areas are of most concern? Who are the players that you think are most likely to step up and make an impact? Will 2011 be a better year than 2010 or a step back? Let's get it started!

For CAK: Offense: has the opportunity to be good, will have to develop O line and allow QB some time to settle in as starter, but very capable. Receivers are the strength at this time with 3 starters returning, all are proven and very good. Defense: only 2 starters returning, some prospects that can help but not enough to field a strong overall defense at this time. This is the biggest concern for next year. Lots of work to be done here. Schedule: most challenging of any CAK schedule in the past 10 years. Overall assessment: will be hard to repeat the success of the past 2 years, but I wouldn't sell these players and coaches short. Spring practice will be critical.

GoddardField Posted December 7, 2010 Report Share Posted December 7, 2010 Honestly I think it will be the same teams that have been there the past couple of years. Alcoa is still going to be "the team". Milan, Goodpasture, Polk Co, Elizabethton will all field good solid teams. Depending on how well CAK reloads after a large senior class, Im sure they and Loudon will both be back at the top as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BLACKknight28 Posted December 7, 2010 Report Share Posted December 7, 2010 CDHS- Well i do have to say for going 7-4 this season we did allright. But are main are of attack and is still going to be is julilius montgomery aka the juice. Yes we lost to betsy in the first round 30-14. But if anyone saw that game we CDHS lost it. The fumble right after halftime on bestys. Goalline would gave us winning 14-13. We hurt are selves alot of defense in the second half's on the games. Are defense will be mediocore. But the offense is allways supprising us CDHS fans. WGHS could have easily came in an ran all over use but did it happen no. The chuckey doak Defense stood up a faught back. Gave our offense another chance and we won the game 28-27. so i see CDHS going to the playoffs again this year. We have lost a few key players on defense but maybe for the better. Just like every young team the players need to step up and earn a spot. Go Black Knights. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goodpasture will be back not many seniors (8) but quality ones-they still are going to be heavy on the line. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey FootballDad, was curious, because I havent seen our schedule yet, was my team "retained" on the CAK schedule? And I gotta go with "my team" as the best in 4A in 2011! (believe to the end!)

BCsportsfan Posted December 13, 2010 Report Share Posted December 13, 2010 Alcoa reloads with a DEEP backfield! Crenshaw and Chapman will be the roadgraders next season, and Vee Hambrick the 0-60 in 2 seconds sportscar! Can Vee break Toney's state record of 50 rushing TD's?

DefMinded Posted December 13, 2010 Report Share Posted December 13, 2010 Take a shot in no order the top 15 teams will be, Alcoa, Cak, Louden, Milan,Goodpasture,Smith,Tyner,Howard,Polk,Westview,Camden,Sequatchie Co,Bledsoe Co,GP,Elz. Should be another strong year for 3a. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FootballDad Posted December 13, 2010 Report Share Posted December 13, 2010 (edited) Hey FootballDad, was curious, because I havent seen our schedule yet, was my team "retained" on the CAK schedule? And I gotta go with "my team" as the best in 4A in 2011! (believe to the end!) No sir, we were not retained on the Chiefs schedule. That wasn't unexpected. As I listened to the radio broadcast of the game that night the Sequoyah announcers repeatedly said that "we won't have to see these guys(CAK)ever again". All of our non-district games dropped us except for Grace, but I think we have got the schedule of 2011 finalized now, but it was the toughest year ever to get that done. Check out the thread for 2011 schedules, I posted CAK's schedule there. Sorry we won't be playing you guys but I enjoyed speaking with you on the "T" the past couple seasons. Good luck to you and your Chiefs. I'll drop in on your threads from time to time to see how you're doing, and remember..."keep it clean".

TheAmbassador Posted December 15, 2010 Report Share Posted December 15, 2010 3A Alcoa CAK Loudon Polk County Goodpasture Everyone Else This is the way I saw 3A this season. The best teams were the top 4 teams above. Polk County had a really good football team. We saw that up close and personal. CAK and Polk County were really close. Alcoa was probably 3 touchdowns better than these two teams. After these two teams. The MERCY rule would have applied on anyone else in 3A.

Indian Posted December 15, 2010 Report Share Posted December 15, 2010 Pearl-Cohn on a good night (turnover-free or minimal) could have played with most anyone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bratt22 Posted December 15, 2010 Report Share Posted December 15, 2010 Pains me to say this but, Goodpasture got to the finals so they had to be pretty good. I agree Indian Pearl-Cohn was no slouch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
