Beech-Henry County

Last year Jalen Hurd ran in front of the bus back to Sumner Co.  He was well oiled and full of gasoline, especially with that Senior line he had last year.  I see him having another solid game this year, but thankfully, playing at home,he won't have to carry the bus back to town.  I see him getting hit alot this year, and breaking tackles, and getting hit some more.

 

The last 2 5A state champions will tangle, and it shoud be a good game.  This is just the appetizer before the November 29th meeting...;):popcorneater:  ;)

I was lucky enough to watch both games in person this weekend.  I have to say I had as much worry about HC as SC until Firday.  HCs QB is better than I expected but the other skill positions not.  Mainly though, Henry county's lines are either young or inexperienced or both.  Either way, they donn't match up with Beech and I'll go ahead and say this one will be ugly because of that.

If I told you the following,

 

1  Henry County's lines are not young

2  Henry County's lines are not inexperienced

 

You'd say what?

Beech can and will be scored on , the trick is can you score more then them?

I watched the game for a 2nd time and if I gave a game ball it's to BHS fullback , kid blasts to the LOS and locates his block

SC proved you can pass on Beech - can HC?

Still Beech finds a way to win and suspect they take this

I put Vegas line at Pts scored ( over ) at 66

Kevin, your prognostications regarding HC have been so bizarrely inaccurate over the past three years that I am somewhat comforted by your comments above. I fear that your Boskie-esque disdain for the Patriots influences your thinking.If you really think that Beech's Oline is better than that of MBA, well.;.............

 

         GO BIG RED

 

I have not seen MBA at all this year, I was more so referring to the jamboree and the game this past week, and yes, Obion Co, was worn down pretty good from 1 quarter to the next. I dont feel I am over selling the depth issue at all actually, that has been the main factor for HC thus far. I really didnt mean to ruffle feathers, just an honest assessment, not gonna bicker over it though, I will let the game do the talking.....lol

short week = HC advantage

best player(s) = Beech advantage all 3 rbs are ridiculous

depth = HC advantage

size = Beech advantage

speed = Beech advantage

 

HCs defense has a lot to be desired...liberty struggled all preseason getting 1st downs...as u guys saw in the 2nd half...but the 1st half we gashed u pretty good...and our guys barely made it to half...the 10 ppl in our stands could see them goin downhill...if it wasnt for the INT at the end of the 2nd and a pretty sweet throw and better catch we go into half tied up at 7...

 

ur boys still need to pack on some pounds...im not use to seeing them this thin...and hurd as well as the sophomore rb are large...much like ur own fb...

 

lot of points in this game...i bet more than last year...Beech D is awful but HC doesnt have Mr Malone catching passes to open it up like station camp...

 

good luck and enjoy...too bad this one wont be on TV

Tandem,my take on the Bucs aftr the SC game is that they are just as good as advertised.Certainly Hurd is spectacular and Carter almost as good( lucky for us that they can't both carry the ball at the same tme). 41, the fullback is outystanding and the new O-line is far better than adequate.The only chink in their armor as I see it and asyou outlined is the number of both way players: HC has none. We are hoping for game time temp of 98 with 98% relative humidity.Otherwise, it seems pretty hopeless.

 

           GO BIG RED

    • He resigned smh, and have you ever heard of charged but not convicted. Some people in this county baffle me with their need to slander others. Have you asked any of the 30+ parents that signed a petition to get him reinstated at the board meeting this week how they feel about this? Just let it play out, at the end of the day the only people that will bring TC back are the ones that know what its about at its core.    People hate losing and they aren't used to it at TC. I for 1, and I'm sure others too, understand having a dip in talent and not being able to compete for a state title every year. But in the past, TC teams have outworked more talented teams, they didn't continuously lose the turnover battle, they didn't commit 8+ penalties in several games each season, and I believe several of the folks in town that want Blake out feel as if he is neglecting the history of the program. This is from a source that used to be extremely close to the program (not me lol), Blake gets out of school midday and the players show up and there is no practice plan or itinerary.  I also understand those that are on team Blake, when he has loads of talent, he wins. He does know football and he is a tremendous DC, and if the rumors are true then he will do great things. As for the board member issue, it is what it is, everyone that's true to the county know that and nothing has changed. I agree though that they should strive to make the facilities as good as we can. And as far as potential candidates, I agree there is very few options. West, Vetetoe (yes I know), and couple others that could have some interest. Whatever happens is massive for the program during a pivotal time before the next big wave of stars make their way through. 
    • McKenzie had no trouble with Huntingdon.  
    • Has BA landed any cornfed cowboys to block up front?
    • Yea I agree I will say tho I was a big “ v “ fan if an  opening ever did happen I think it would’ve been good to see him have a shot coming from a power house like Oakland. I’m sure he’s learned a lot from Kevin.  I bet he would bring a really good offense scheme IMO But after all this I just dunno anymore.  Whatever happens with the rumors an such if it did come to and opening I think this messes it all up.  The board members dreams are slowly slipping away now. I haven’t lived there for awhile I just hear what I hear, but my question is would there be any good potential candidates?? That’s why I don’t understand why people want b s out so bad who else could do any better ?? IMO there’s nothing attractive about it? As I stated earlier I went to the last game last year and taking a leak in a porta Potty is pretty sad and still nothing being done they say .. 
    • I have a sophomore that can do 177 (preferred) or 192. Sent you an email.
