taco Posted August 21, 2011 Report Share Posted August 21, 2011 I do not believe this at all. Taco enough. Go to your Centennial/Independence threads and leave us alone until we meet in two weeks. Man, I can't wait for the Rebels to run all over the cougars. TACO, you make me sick. My magic jumping beans have revealed all. CC is done after this season. Hey I am trying to help you out and keep him around. Maybe he will see this and will stay to prove me wrong. He's let it slip to some on his staff. Sorry guys, the captain is getting off the sinking ship. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
taco Posted August 21, 2011 Report Share Posted August 21, 2011 You clearly haven't seen the freshman football team for Franklin play, they have a lot of phenomenal athletes, including their quarterback. Didnt the Centennial freshman team go undefeated, or close to it, three years ago? I think they won the freshman league at least, but I may be wrong. Point is...they are freshman. What 14 and 15 year olds do doesnt always translate to varsity successs. It wont at FHS either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mykidsdad Posted August 21, 2011 Report Share Posted August 21, 2011 try to stay on topic, not on taco. Its pretty creepy how much you post about me and not about football. Man crush? Thanks for making my point, nucklehead! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
taco Posted August 21, 2011 Report Share Posted August 21, 2011 Thanks for making my point, nucklehead! my posts are always on topic until some bozo like you derails it. Let the mancrush go. This tread is about Franklin football, not your idiotic jabs at me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lbhiii Posted August 21, 2011 Report Share Posted August 21, 2011 Agree! But my question is why did we not show up in the first half? Why have we been struggling on offense when we have a QB like we have? The answer is young off. linemen and WR that DROP the ball!!!!!!!! If,If,If, Had, Had, Had - Lets face the facts. Brentwood jamboreed Siegel the other night and my impression was that Siegel was nothing spectacular. They also moved the ball through the air pretty easily against the Bruins. Brentwood played a very weak Cookeville Team and looked o.k. but nothing spectacular. Sounds like Franklin has a really solid QB and a bunch of youngsters. I think it is going to be ugly in District 11 this year. And yes Coach Clayton does see the writing on the wall. He has said it publicly in the past. P.S. - The Bruins have a probably very "perturbed" Smyrna next Friday. Might be ugly! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah the centennial freshman team did...but their "freshman" team also played sophomores in juniors in the majority of their games, so it doesn't really count as being an undefeated FRESHMAN team. It was more of a partial JV team that beat all the freshman teams they played Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was more of a partial JV team that beat all the freshman teams they played Freshmen stuff doesn't mean squat but I can tell you that Centennial made that undefeated run with an ALL freshmen squad. The only reason I recall is because that team was dubbed "The Dirty Dozen and a half plus two". There were only 20 kids total. I didn't see all the games from the stands but was there to watch them against Brentwood and Franklin. The key was the QB scrambling to either take off running or dump off to short routes. No one could catch the kid. Some of those guys are still with the team as seniors now. We'll see if anything translates over to varsity success.

Them having 20 people is why they played sophomores and juniors in some of their games. I only know that they played sophomores and 2 juniors in both the Franklin and Brentwood games because those are the only two that I payed attention to, I can't say for sure if they played them in other freshman games. But I wouldn't be surprised if they did. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I wouldn't be surprised if they did. I was at both games and recall freshmen wearing varsity player's numbers. At first sight it may have appeared upper classmen were playing but by that Friday you could tell there were different bodies in those certain numbered jerseys. I remembered checking the roster because I only saw twenty players on the field. I don't want to argue it any longer but Centennial beat us fair and square. Our boys will get the last laugh though.

And that brings it back to the point I was making about 20 posts ago to another poster talking about how good they think FHS's freshman team is; it really doesnt matter. If they cant do it in a varsity game, it doesnt matter, and in another year, FHS will be in serious rebuilding mode...with a new head coach to boot.
