Grundy HC Search

we shall see. Won't have the records Marion will have in 2a, but team to team will be as good or better. More. Depth and higher numbers is big as you go up in class. York Ins and Dekalb Co will dress 60-65, Upperman over 90. Smith Co is a traditional power team but has had over 90 playing in the past on many occasions. http://nashville.suntimes.com/vanderbilt-university/7/118/33620/2017-qb-jennings-checks-out-vanderbilt

We are probably a 7-3 or 8-2 team next season. Playing bigger schools this year with a new district. We lose a couple of very good players but return maybe 17 starters. We had between 60-65 players this year. With 28 8th graders coming up and losing only maybe 6 or 7 seniors our numbers should be in the high 70's. Of course with attrition all those 8th graders won't stay out. Coach Ross (first year coach as well) is really big on not playing iron man football. We had a few who did this year just because they were too good to take off the field. Sorry to GC fans for hijacking your board. Just setting the record straight.

heard Mr Dickersn stepped down

Yes, that's the word I got as well.

That's funny. I'm no Marion fan, but you are mistaken about those teams being better than Marion in 2015.

Marion County would of beat York, Upperman, Dekalb, and Smith County last season.

_{Hope that Murphy Fair man lists Grundy County as the Yellow Jackets and not the Jackets}

[DCTIGERFAN]

Has Grundy County got anymore players yet? I seem to remember someone saying their numbers were real low, like low 20s.

i agree, all 4 teams were in rebuild mode. I see strong returns from all 4 this year.

I'm not sure DC will be particularly "strong", but good enough to win 6-8 games and go to the playoffs. On paper Upperman looks like they should be the early favorites. I believe DC, York, and Smith County will fight it out for the 2-4 spots. Trying to predict the standings at this point in time would just be a guess by anybody. Every team has question marks. I think Grundy and Cannon County will fight it out for last place though. DC plays at York, at Upperman, and at Sequatchie. I was hoping to host 2 out of York, Upperman, and Smith.

7-3 seems about right maybe 8-2. I cant figure out dekalb this year....seem to be down in football, basketball, and now even basball. Is their not much talent around Jennings? Edited March 27, 2015 by UpperCumberlandMan

Yes, the talent level is down. They do have some good young kids coming up.
