This is a blast from the past, but I think deservedly so... what about Jeff Brothers at quarterback? He seems to have gotten lost in the shuffle... all he did at BA was win 27 games in a row and two state championships in 1987-88, then go on to be an All-SEC defensive back at Vanderbilt... now he's coaching at the high school level, won a state championship as an assistant at Christ Presbyterian Academy in 2000 and is now the head coach at the new Pope John Paul II High School in Hendersonville...

 

I think if you're talking about great BA players, Jeff's name needs to be at least mentioned...

Jimmy Hockaday was undoubtedly the best athlete BA has ever had in football. He played alot at Georgia, but it was during the time of Herschel Walker left, Herschel Walker right, and GA was coming off a national championship. I think this hurt him as far as chances of playing in the pros. In high school, his talent was on a far higher level than anyone he played against. At one time, he ranked nationally as one one of the all-time best wide receivers in the history of high school football. I don't know where he ranks now.

    • Looks like South Pittsburg added some more talent!  
    • So much talk about an investigation about student record manipulation and then everything has went silent. Has anyone heard how the investigation is going?
    • Basically what you're saying is schools can basically bully students around and get away with it because they are protected. I agree to a certain extent but when schools decisions to keep knuckleheads on staff starts costing kids careers and a college education there is a problem. Our school system last week had a teacher supposedly push a kid and the parents went to the law and the teacher is suspended. So I wouldn't say that they can just do what they want without liability. This case don't pass the smell test because the coach had already been fired before and she got fired after a year on the job. Sounds like the student was right in this case on the outside looking in because the coach gets fired after one year. How many coaches get fired after one year?? Not many. 
    • Problem with DB football goes beyond coaching. Like Waco said. Thr band is the main focus of their community and school. They have the resources to be a championship level team. Guarantee Ballard or Witten could have them nationally relevant at some point but everyone down to peewee would have to buy in and at DB we all know that would never happen.
