Where's the all state list ?

He was as good as any Buc ever. Superman wont be easily replaced.

TB Pearson in 2003 was best Buc I saw. Healy kid at QB was right there with him. If this kid was as good as those two then that's saying something. I'm just keeping it real

 Nelson was pretty dang good also.

Nelson was a beast. Will Healy was a special QB. Probably the best pure QB I've seen at Boyd since I went to school there.

That list is ridiculous. How did Trousdale County not have more linemen make the list? They had a minimum of 5-6 all state kids with 3-4 being linemen.

I meant to say Union City. Union City wasn't represented like they deserved either. The line Union City had was the best in 1A or 2A.

Wow!

Congrats to all the kids on this list but i see 12 plus from three schools (Adamsville, Grace, Trinity) and TC, who goes undefeated and state title has TWO.  Those two seem to be tokens from the Tennessean All-Midstate teams.  It seems to be that way every year TC has won a state title (except '97) when they rolled the All-State lists.  I am not saying any of these kids on the list should be replaced, but wow!  The bottom line is this: Grace (Knoxville) and Adamsville/Trinity (Jackson) are backed by large media outlets and those writers are voting for those and TC, along with the other rural schools, are hoping a major outlet's writers like (Nashville, Chattanooga, Knoxville, Clarksville, Memphis, Jackson) throw a bone based on the names seen during the end run.  I know its tough to see/know about sooooo many kids, but going undefeated and winning the whole pie means you probably have more than two.  I'm sure they will take the ring over that anyway.

 

PS - I really wish The Tennessean would bring back All-Midstate by class instead of the AAA/D-II AA team with some AA/A/D-IIA sprinkled in its 2nd and 3rd teams.  It was so much cooler when they did teams for each class and had a offensive POY, Defensive POY, and Coach of the Year for each class.  Just my thoughts.  Happy New Year!!!

Congrats to all...but of course I'm partial to South Pittsburg's Payne Mosely, Kahlil Mitchell, Ricky Fehr, and Jajuan Lankford.

Trousdale deserved more kids on the team as well, but the Union City linemen should have had more representation. Edited December 31, 2013 by TheAmbassador

From an outsider looking in I agree as well, UC's line was very good ! I'm old style, line it up and run the ball, watched these guys in person against NC, the 4 point stand on the O line is yester yr but it still works...... Congrats to all the young lads that still give us the thrill of victory and sometimes the agony of defeat, congrats to all and happy new yr !

Congrats to all the young lads!

No offense to any of the Coacht posters but in the reomote NW corner of Tn we we reside we are accustomed to getting snubbed a little bit by the folks who vote on these things. However this year we got alot more attention than normal. Congrats to all the young men who made the list.

I agree "BigSwo", Humboldt got four (4) on the all state list! By the way, I'll be in UC this Friday for the Basketball game between UC & the Vikings!!!
