I have a topic for you. Who is the best football player to ever come thru Wayne co and Houston county since I don't know that much about either ones history. Give me a lineman and a back/wr. Take Preston out of equation so not to get current player involved and start un-needed feud. Also biggest college someone from program went to to play football. Can be completely different person. I know sometimes the best player can't make the grades for big time college. We've had that happen before

I'll let Disciple tell ya about the oldies but I do know our only current collegiate guy is the QB of the 2012 team (last team to go to the playoffs) for HC is a walk-on at LSU for TE and that may not sound like much but he's a legend in Houston County. We're proud of him!

No judging here. Walk on or not, it's still the sec. With re-alignment that put us in west and with freshman on TC team I'm just wanting to get familiar with teams we are now going to have potential dealings with. I already know too much about south Pitt, Oneida, coalfield etc.

Yea I got ya. I didn't know much about a lot of our new region either, just that there was good football and tons of tradition. I watched 20+ different highschool teams last year, I love learning about other teams as well!

Didn't Wayne County have a Mr football back in the late 90's? He was a running back. His first name is Brian but for the life if me I can't remember his last name. I was trying to think of it back when we were talking about the old region 6. Just figured some of the older WC posters would know.

LOL.. I got to go see him in Nashville last year for the Music City Bowl and he introduced me to some of the guys. Some feller named Fournette was one of them, really good guy

Brian Coggins but not sure what year exactly but I'd say mid to late 90's

See even an old cornersville guy can keep up with things haha

Coach Crews told me this story about Coggins once. They were seated at a table with one of the guys up for Mr. Football. He looks at Coggins and says, you up for Mr. Football?

You a kicker or something? I think that's how he told it anyway...

I'm guessing he was much smaller than the others, and they couldn't believe he was a RB. Lol

I always liked that story, it really tells the tale of Wayne County football. Not always the biggest players, but always a scrappy bunch.

if I remember right he was like 160 lbs couldn't have been taller than 5'7. He could play no doubt.

      Clinton grade changing scandal

      By TotallynotLEO · Posted

      There's going to be more fallout from this.  It's not over.   A criminal investigation is also underway.  Additional school counselors have been fired.   As far as coach flip flops is concerned,  a lot of people knew he was flirting with disaster. He was recruiting failed athletes from other schools. Grades and discipline issues that got otherwise good athletes kicked off other area teams were playing at CHS. Grades, addresses or transfer rules be dam ed. It was just a matter of time.  It's a culture issue at the school. I've heard an assistant coach and teacher for another sports team was let go for not breaking up a fight on campus between 2 girls.  Supposedly he's only there because of coach flip flops, they're close.  That guy's kid, who's a great athlete in the school,  will probably transfer out to.  There's just so many layers to this .   I'm not sure the director of all Anderson county schools doesn't get bit by this somehow. He's the one who wanted, pushed for the principal at Clinton in the first place.  He initially denied anything had been uncovered when a local station broke the story.  He had to back track his statements.   It's ugly in Clinton right now folks.   Add in the fact that there's such a huge rivalry with ACHS across the river,  it makes it bitter for clinton fans if they say anything.  Especially given the dominance that ACHS has had over Clinton for 20+ years in  almost everything.

      I remember it happening, but I don't remember the details. I usually have headphones on so I don't hear the PA anyway. But it seems like a guy I know was doing it at one point, but he either didn't start it or didn't finish. I don't remember which.

      Kreuziger from Huntingdon has been fantastic on the mound!  I think if the Fillies can score a couple of runs tomorrow it may be all they need to capture their first ever state championship in Softball.  Great day to be a Huntingdon fan!  Baseball team has won 17 in a row and plays for State Championship tomorrow also!
