Private schools could win all 3 lower football classifications.

The private school that I work with plays only two small rural schools in West Tennessee in football and that is because they are a district opponants. If they were not district opponants, they would not be on the schedule to be honest with you. If the small rurals in East Tennessee don't like playing privates, there is an easy solution, don't schedule them. That is what many small rurals in West Tennessee do unless it is a playoff game.

 

If every private school in this state suddenly vanished, many of you small rural schools would just find something else to complain about. By the way, I did not know that Union City had a professional baseball team. What's their name?

Do you not count Medina as small?

Union City once did have a minor league team in the Class D KY-TN-IL league (the "Kitty League"), from 1935 to 1955 excluding the war years. Known as the Dodgers for the last three years, the Greyhounds before that. Other shorter-lived Kitty League teams in West TN were the Lexington Bees/Giants, the Milan/Trenton Twins, the Paris Travelers/Parisians, the Dyersburg (Forked) Deers, and the Trenton Reds. The Memphis Chicks and Jackson Generals are the only ones still playing in the western grand division.

    • Can’t believe no one posted on this and gave this team the recognition they deserve!  AAU team Tennessee went to Iowa and done what no other team had ever done and took down Iowa and the strength by holds in AAU nationals!!! Yes McCallie had a solid group of 8th graders and they showed up but we had an AAU team that wrestled their butt off and we didn’t just place in the top 5 … we won the whole dang thing! Yes the NHSCa’s were happening and that may have hurt but never once had TN ever won the national folkstyle duals national championship!!  It was a team effort and some amazing young kids!!!    We are not a fly over state any more… on a side note : we have any even better team for cadet National's team duals in Utah and have a chance to sweep both duals which would be unprecedented!!! However the funds aren’t there and USA isn’t in th position to help these kids get to utah as was AAU that got us to Iowa! Stay tuned for some oppertunities to help make a statement for Tn!!! 
    • Right cause you know me, you may know my name, what I post on here, what I say on our shows, but you don’t know who I am. And if your class ring doesn’t say Trousdale County high school, quite frankly I don’t care what you say. 
    • I agree but I will say I’m not hiding behind a screen name, I’m easy to find and not hard to miss lol 
    • Dont get your reference, but okay. You calling someone a hypocrite is ironic given your track record. 
    • Not gonna lie, it’s been hard watching my alma mater go through a tough stretch on the grid iron. But this thread is even worse. y’all sound like a bunch of jr high mean girls, popping off, while hiding behind screen names.
