Henry County @ Centennial

TOP DEFINITION
   
interjection. A remark, generally thought of as southern slang, that is derived from the word "Well" and also used in its stead in order to lead one into another sentence that may continue a paused conversation/story or be used to signify the conclusion of one. Where as pronunciation of "Well" can be drawn out, "Whelp" is strictly pronounced very quickly and with a slight rising-inflection.

 

Nice, thanks for clarifying BT!

 

It is a tall order, but one that the Patriots are capable of. I believe that the Big Red Defense will come out with a little more passion this week. Also hoping that the cougra's are looking ahead to Indy and a rematch with them...

 

And no sign of a white out, so bring your Big Red gear!!!!!

 

Go Big RED!!!

If the Cougars are looking ahead...it will definitely be a long night for them and an end to a good season. Patriots will be ready to take care take care of business this go around...guaranteed.

Don't count on them looking ahead.  Rector is robotic in his focus on the task at hand and this week's task is HC.  BTW, field conditions may be messy.  Looks like up to 3 inches of rain on Wednesday into Wednesday night.

Depends on a few things

How hard the wind is blowing

Does the qb have a strong arm

Rainy conditions with sloppy field can sometimes be advantage receivers

Weather for Friday looks perfect so no rain is anticipated during the game. Just not sure how much things will dry if the Wednesday forecast holds true.

Wouldn't put your eggs into the basket of thinking/hoping Centennial will be looking ahead to Indy.

 

Rector continues to impress me with what he does with teams on the decline and how he brings them up rather quickly.  He has made Centennial relevant again and will be sure to have his boys focused solely on HC.  Of all people Rector knows it is tough to beat the same team twice in one season and he will have his team ready for HC.

 

I expect this to be a closer game than the first time but would not be surprised to see Centennial pull away late either.

 

Good luck to both schools Friday and here's hoping to an injury free game!

Sloppy field/weather usually means that a team must run the ball more to be successful. Henry County has one of the best run defenses in the state...so if Centennial must rely on the run more than the pass...advantage HC. HC also has a great rushing offense behind an outstanding offensive line and fullbacks. (#47 is running some fullback now so look out). Another advantage for HC this time around is that Centennial has had to start playing a lot more both ways...and they had to hang on for dear life the last time they played HC because they were out of gas. HC thrives on "wearing" other teams down...and then putting them away in the 4th. This is how I see this one playing out.  HC 24 Cent. 16

Honestly you always pick your team to win, the weather is clear and another defeat is looming right around the corner my overzealous friend.

Sorry that I annoy you with the confidence that I have with my team. It's just something that has been instilled in me over the years and years and years of success that the program has had. Hopefully, you will experience this feeling some day. Sorry you can't make a prediction on your team this week.

I'm all for being confident in your team, but did you see the first game between HC and Centennial? They also have a very good run defense,,,,,it kept HC out of the endzone for 3.25 quarters. Only when HC started throwing did things loosen up. So if both teams have to run the ball to score, it may be more like 10-7. Turnovers and/or penalties could very well determine this one.

GO BIG RED

    • Old Pirate wondering if spring practice starts Monday? 
    • From my understanding, Jay Graham pretty much took over HC responsibilities in that game, so you can thank him. Cute Andy didn’t need help, though. Cute Andy could’ve beaten us without any assistant coaches.
    • Tax payer dollars are paid for certified teachers to "teach" and then coach. The primary job is to teach.  There are some district that ay awesome supplements and others that don't. Dyersburg and Dyer County are pretty close if I remember correctly. I would imagine that Football and basketball are above $10,000 now.  I've heard that Milan is $20,000 for boys basketball. I would imagine that football is more than that in Milan.  Collierville has camps that coaches get paid extra for. 3 camps a year, 100 kids a camp, $30,000 right there.  There are places like Memphis-Shelby County schools where the supplements are garbage even for the head coaches. I made less than $3,000 as the head assistant at Germantown in 2015 when we were 26-4 and one of the best teams in the Southeast. As a head middle school coach next year I will make between $4-5,000 at a municipal in Shelby County.  Coaches should be compensated for the jobs that are required but lets keep in mind that they are educators first.  It's pretty frustrating to other teachers that work their tale off teaching 6-7 classes a day to watch someone roam campus, not teach (or have very minimal responsibilities), and get paid the same (more with supplements) as a person who has the some years of experience or sometimes less. 
    • This will get coaches leaving the profession very quickly if this kid wins this case. This is absurd...
