Football-Dist 9 (Sumner-Wilson) .....6A & 5A

[GWAVE1]

thanks for your response............now I understand!

"Never argue with an idiot; he will drag you down to his level, and beat you with experience". Sorry that I asked for a civil debate; you whipped me with your experience. My mistake

Exactly my point.....this arguement happens every year on here. "But what about Georgia or fill in the blank school from any state, or Cleveland from the mid-90's at the 4-A level"....the answer is still the same....IT STILL hasn't happened at the highest level in Tennessee. You can call me an idiot all you want....it doesn't change the fact that a wing-t team has not won.

This year it's the Chowbay, Garza, Hopkins, and McCathern show. Chowbay has an arm. Garza has speed and power. Hopkins is lightning quick, and McCathern is a bruiser. O-Line is not the biggest but is solid. You are right we will not be the same team. This team is LOADED on offense. The only sucking coming out of the MJ VS GHS matchup will be the D of GHS "sucking air" from attempting to stop the 3 headed monster of Garza, Hopkins, and McCathern.

Hey MJpride, would you consider this group to be better than the Earnhardt and Gurchick show? They were quite a one two punch.

[SCBEST09]

1. Gallatin

2. Mj

3. Hville (could be higher)

4. Beach

5. Lebanon

6. Station Camp

7. Central

8. Portland

Great question GWAVE1. Yes they were. Gurchick was a complete QB. He had a good arm & decent speed on the run but the best quality he has is smarts/leadership. Earnhardt was a workout warrior with good speed but unfortunately got hurt at UT camp and my personal opinion was that when he did finally come back after a few games he never was quite the same. That was a very serious injury and alot of people wouldn't have ever played that soon or ever agin for that matter. Hard to rate Chowbay after only a partial year of playing. He does have a heck of an arm and is an exceptional athelete. The 3 backs compliment each other very well. If Hopkins and McCathern weren't so good (and because of the wing-t) Garza would be one of the states best RB's. As far as your answer goes, as a group, this years has the potential to be better. I will take 3 exceptional backs over 1 exceptional back any day (fresher legs)

I think this game gets more hype since it is in the middle of the season and not the beginning. Both teams should be hitting their stride about that time. Hopefully Gallatin will be better on defense than last year. We surrendered way too many points. The offense should be very explosive and unpredictable with as many skill players as Gallatin has returning. The Green Wave has a few holes to fill that I am concerned about but hopefully the scrimmage schedule will fill those spots with quality personnel.

I'm expecting another close high scoring game just like the last time the Wave visited MJ.From what you are informing me about GHS and from what I know about MJ it looks like two powerful offenses with some question marks on the D from both schools. With all that being stated, now watch it be a low scoring game. It's always been the game I've looked forward to the most. Hopefully both teams come into this game undefeated.

Wilson Central is ready to shock the state, they have an old guru back on the staff, and with last years talent from the freshman squad coming to varsity it adds an instant upgrade to this years team. The qb is deadly accurate in 7 on 7 games and in the spring, he looks prepared to carry this team, the wingbacks are extremely fast and can take the edge on anybody and the defense features 2 D-1 prospects with many future prospects in their junior and sophomore year this team is going to be sneaky good in these next 3 years and that "attitude" has seemingly changed for the better with Coach Dedman and his staffs enforcement on discipline this off season

Wilson Central will have a chance to "shock the state" in their first contest. Gallatin will be fully prepared for WC. I only know of one prospect on defense who is supposed to be pretty good and that is the linebacker. Who is the other one? Hard to tell about Wilson Central but mind you district 9-AAA will be much tougher than your spring Macon Co opponent. Looks like y'all are a little young this year too.
