Very early 5A Preseason Top 5 for 2014

[SweetScience]

Maybe it's just me and I shouldn't feel this way since we got beat by them this year, but seeing Campbell County in the top 5 in anything pertaining to football is still hard for me to get used to lol

SweetScience I've been biting my typing finger ever sense this thread started. Here goes I'm not sure Oak Ridge is ready for prime time yet. Like the "Large Orange" over to Knoxburg I don't know if we are there yet. Still some big questions to be answered. I like all the folks being so proud of us, but just still not sure.

Bounder I think year 3 of Gaddis is when all should fall into place for a bigtime run, personally.

[HighLife]

A quick rundown of what Hillsboro has returning for the 2014 Season.

 

Defensively they return all 4 starting DLineman, which weigh in 250,265,260,330, one of whom in K. Phillips is an absolute monster. 3 LB's, and 2 DB's..

 

Offensively they return 2 WR, both playmakers who r around 6'2 -6'3. 4 Olineman, 1 in which Phillips plays as well. QB who is a 3 yr starter who stands around 6'1 210, and 3 RB's who all started at some point all year, 1 of which holds an offer from UK.

 

Craig Clayton, former Franklin High coach, has made the Burros relevant again, so Hillsboro will obviously be well coached. Barring injury, I expect to see Hillsboro play deep into November for the first time since '08.

 

5A will be a very entertaining class next year

 

On a side note, congrats to Henry County and Knox West on a great title game. Best of luck to all teams for a good offseason. Can't wait to crank it up again.

Knoxville West Graduates 26, 13 of which started the Championship game.

More measures, more interestinger,

 

KW - 15 Freshmen, 18 Sophomores, 21 Juniors, 26 Seniors

HC -    5 Freshmen, 35 Sophomores, 36 Juniors, 21 Seniors

 

from the Championship game rosters.

 

Question:  What is the root meaning of the word "sophomore"?
