Huntingdon Mustangs vs. Westview Chargers


Recommended Posts

You are correct and personally, just making the playoffs should be our first goal. Our district is overall better throughout the district and making playoffs can be tough.

I think mustangs have a lock on district and toss up from there.

 

My preseason pick for district was actually Dresden till your qb left and found out you got a new coach.  I think Huntingdon got it locked as well but didnt think that during preseason cause of all the young players, however they looked real good the other night but dont wanna get too excited yet as Im biased lol.

 

I think you guys will prob go 5-5 or 6-4 which means you'll prob make playoffs.  Just gotta stay with it and players cant give up.  Westview is a tough team not going to be easy for us either I dont think.

Hey Harley, we scrimmaged both teams. We had most of our players against Westview and played it like a regular game in the Spring. Against Huntington we had 13 players out and didn't show them much in regards to our passing game or our starting RB's BUT I think Huntington wins this game by 2 TD's. That crazy offense of theirs is next to impossible to stop. It's boring but it works. If they don't turn it over the Stangs will win it! If they ever get behind by 2 TD's they are beat but I just don't see that happening.

Ball control is the key here. If the Stangs can control the clock and grind it out then I like their chances. If they get behind by a couple of scores or turn the ball over and lkill long drives then the Chargers win. Keep the EVENT offense sidelined and it should work out for Huntingdon.

BAHAHAHAHAHAHA!! 13 players out my !?!?!?!?. You had two out as did we, you had all your little D1 studs there. You had 13 out after we scrimmaged you, just like I told you would happen. I get so tired of excuses, its pathetic. Its typical, "yeah they beat us but we had (insert number here)out". Yeah, we scrimmaged both, we were just working on our run game, yeah we scrimmaged em, but we didn't have our (insert position or 13 positions if you want to). Don't know if we will beat westview but if we don't it won't be because we had (insert number) out.

reading all ur post trying to figure out who too pick on big ones I'm from E tenn so never see ya'll play. Still not sure mustangs have most posters and beat W view last year I'm 24 -5 and need this game. who's got this game.  lol :huh:

As a neutral fan who is familiar with Both teams(Camden) I would  go with the Stangs.They have a very good program as so does westveiw but westveiw tends to struggle in early season games.

While I like their offense and it is funky..I don't think its boring.

 

I think Camden might have written to book on how to stop it last season....Send the house and understand you are going to give up a big play here or there but you have to be playing defense on their side of the line of scrimmage . that way  they aint nickle and diming you down the field for 8 minutes at a time scoring while your offense watches helplessly on the sidelines.

 

Camden did it so well last season they went back to the double wing for the rest of the regular season....cant wait for this years game to see what Huntington coach counters with..I understand they have a QB this season that can really wing it if you sell out..

    • Dyersburg scrimmaged South Gibson last week
    • A complete cultural change happened at Greeneville and the administration and community opened up their checkbooks.  What a lot of people don't know is Ballard was Zeller's OC for many years and stopped coaching for two years because Zeller and Ballard didn't see eye to eye on some things.  Zeller lead Greeneville to it's first ever Semi Final appearance in 2000 and lost 28-12 at Maryville and had them in the Quarter Finals in 2002 and 2003.  Z was a great coach but lost some control when it came to making workouts mandatory. (He learned from that Mistake and it was at LC when i coached with him.).  Z was let go going into my Senior Year and was replaced by Steve McCurry who was the one that turned the program around.  Steve had won a 4a state championship at AC Reynolds in Asheville and made the administration completely redo the weight room with new equipment, had a football period at the end of the school day to lift, started devil camp, and brought in coaches like Danny Bentley (Still the OL coach), Ballard as the OC, Cody Baugh (QB coach and still there), and even Spradlen who is Greeneville's head coach now as the DB's Coach.  McCurry only coached for two seasons at Greeneville and took a team that had a losing record the year before and finished my Senior Year making it to the Quarters and having a 10-3 record and then followed it up with a Semi Final appearance the next year with an 11-3 record and back to back conference championships.  Loved McCurry to death but the recession hit and the story i heard was he was still buying new equipment for the team that the Principal didn't authorize and his response was "I don't answer to you and only to Niswonger and Bewley" (Two huge donors).  That was it for him and they Promoted Ballard shortly after that.   Greeneville had always been relevant ever since the the late 70's under Coach Fred Sorrell's.  Since Sorrell's took over in 1977 Greeneville overall winning percentage is over 76%.  The biggest reason people might not have thought Greeneville was "Good" until Ballard was Greeneville always played up Classification wise and could never get over the hump. (When there were 3 classifications we played 3a, when it went to 5 we played 4a).  Greeneville is the largest its ever been with 953 students and where playing teams 2 or 3 times there size back in the day (I had a little over 800 kids in the school when i graduated in 2008).  Other teams always would know they would be sore after a game but depth took over and never won a Championship until Greeneville played in the classification the TSSAA actually assigned them. You had names like Dustin Moore (1993 Mr Football for 3a and who Phillip Fulmer said was one of the greatest athletes he ever recruited), James "Mud Turtle" Mayes, Brigham Lyons, Byron Gillespie, Frankie Debusk (National Champion Qb at Furman with GQ), Jasmine Lowery, Cody Baugh, The Greenway Brothers, Joe Watson (Furman), etc.  Now the cultural is from the Pee Wee league up and you grow up as a young kid wanting to wear the Greene and White.  Here is a really good link when it comes to anything Greeneville Football related. https://greenevillefootball.com/   I also don't coach anymore.  Z told me i was to smart with how the school systems are ran these days and ended up going into real estate in Knoxville which has been a great decision for my life.
    • Yes, they will. I'm wondering what kinds of strides Sale Creek will make heading into the second season under Coach Fitz.
    • No yellow stripes on the rug last night. Biggest crowd I’ve seen at 825 since the alco debacle. 
    • I know most Pirate starters were seniors last year. Im not sure how accurate it is but someone said we only have 3 seniors. That Prep team will probably make some noise this coming season too.
