Oh, good grief. The All-Valley Karate Championship (featuring me) will be on ESPN before Murvil v Alnwick.

Cobb was not a can't miss coming out of hs. Very good player but not a can't miss. A 17 yr old sr who was a late bloomer. KY already had inroads to alcoa. Being able to get on field at multiple positions at KY was huge. We will have to disagree on the bigger school meaning more exposure. I doubt college coaches go to games looking for prospects. I'd guess they are attending to see a kid who has "the numbers".

I disagree. Many times college coaches may be looking at a certain player and a different player may catch their eye. Not so much D1 as smaller schools.

As much as it pains me, I have to agree with you on this one.

That is a definite and I would think it happens alot. I think that's how the vols ended up with Arian Foster. I was talking about coaches having time to go watch two high schools looking for help during the college season only because the schools are big.

There was a classic game between WB and Maryville in 2007! Would love to see a game like that on ESPN! It was a great game and the atmosphere was electric.

What's even more amazing about that game is that I have talked to so many people that said the field goal was good because they were setting right behind the goal post when it went through. I even had someone mention that this week. All I wished was if I had a dollar for everyone that has told me they were behind the goal post that night I would be rich.

Barney,

There were lots of people that were right behind that goal post. People were crammed around the fence like sardines in a can.

Kentucky promised Randall a shot at quarterback.

UT would not make that promise -- so off to Kentucky.

I was standing on the fence behind the goal post.

Definitely not going to see "Alnwick" vs maryville on espn. If you watch the games espn has from Texas, Florida, California, or mix matched states they're so much more entertaining than Alcoa not throwing a single pass etc

But that '07 game was extremely entertaining. A good WB team vs maryville would be a good espn game in my opinion.
