Fair enough on the turnovers, those can sure get you beat. The Govs used to have a bad habit of piling up turnovers. The result was the Govs would sometimes have more first downs and total yards than the other team and still get beat. In 2014, they averaged between 3-5 turnovers in the redzone per game. I hope that habit stays dead and buried. So far this season the Govs have only turned it over once in each game, granted the one turnover in the Alcoa game was a real back breaker.

I understand that all to well! Both teams need something to happen early to provide needed confidence! DB's offense Did some really good things last Friday night just made some mistakes! Some will say that the defense looked like it was not improved, but other than the fast kid hashing up on a couple big plays, DB looked fairly solid, well at least improved! It will be interesting to see if you are able to throw the ball on us, as I believe that is one of your strengths and one of the areas that we needed to improve! My opinion if you are not successful throwing the football, it will be a long night for the Govs. Well unless you have a 4.4 speedster that I haven't seen! A balanced attack may be key for both teams!

but will they play at WB or take their talents elsewhere within the county?

If RB goes somewhere else, things will get ugly quick around Alnwick. This kid is a difference maker. He'll play Varsity all four years. He'll change the way other Defenses play WB and he'll be the difference in at least a couple of close games every year. If WB keeps him and a few of the other kids and if the classifications change to favor WB, then his Jr and Sr year Govs can be 7-3 or 8-2.

You think WB goes to 5A?  Will Shad stick around if they win 3 this year?

WB's sophomore QB is a really good athlete. WB has some tough middle school kids coming up. They have a RB in middle school that is probably the best prospect to come down WB's pipeline since Brad Walker. He may be a better player than Walker at this stage and I think he'll be better in HS.

Word on the street is his folks are not at all happy with the garbage service they have currently!!

I think any HC would stick around next year if he gets all the 8th graders coming up. After that, can Shad handle being 4-6 to 5-5 most yrs with a 7-3 or 8-2 season every so often?

 

I don't know. Maryville has shown a lot of success with hiring former head coaches and turning them into assistant coaches at a dominant program. Maybe another school does the same thing. I don't know. 

As far as 5A, I think what will happen is some lower level 5A teams will be bumped up into what is now the Super 32 and allow WB some easier competition ( Lenior City, Heritage , etc) so that's where you can go from 3-7 to 5-5 really quick.

I've heard lots of garbage services are lining up to try and help out. LOL.

 

As far as Middle school kids, how would you rank him compared to others that have come through Blount co/Mville / Alcoa in the last 20 yrs or so?

I don't get to watch much middle school ball, being involved with the youth leagues don't allow for it.... However he was very impressive last year as a 12 year old.

      $750,000 Lawsuit Files Against Warren County School District

      By Dawgz4life · Posted

      This whole situation is bonkers. You don’t just kick your star player off the team just because you heard them say the F word; the coach definitely had something against the player, or somebody definitely did. Also, nobody has brought up the idea that the school blackmailed the college to get the college to withdraw the scholarship offer, not to mention that the coach who kicked her off is no longer even with the program; they were fired. I think this is a pretty easy lawsuit. I don’t know if she should deserve that much money, but I think she should get enough money for a full-ride scholarship if she cannot get one after this situation.

      Oh yeah, I’m sure you are different people just always on the same thread for some reason, always agreeing with each other, perhaps just a bunch of dorks who would like to ###### and moan about high school football coaches do a lot of other students, so you make a football team and get a yell at them. When they do something wrong, but I’m sure you don’t like that, do you?   and I’m sure I’m aware of where you get information. A teacher who was on the coaching staff but was fired after the new coaching and staff came in and realized he actually had to start taking his assistant job a little bit more seriously than just wanting to make a little extra cash on the side, hardly even showing up to most practices, should’ve left with his buddy to go to Farragut. I’m sure he could get him a defensive coaching job, but I doubt he will be there in three years. Looking at the way Farragut is currently going.

      It may be hard to believe but there’s more people than me that think you guys are a bunch of losers.    I’m sure the coaching staff, yourself included, cursed at a bunch of high school students. Nobody could name more than 3 coaches on staff due to the constant turnover.

      2024 5A Season

      That's complete BS.  Nobody at ACHS has access to CHS student records unless a transfer is made from CHS to ACHS.

      school closing in Shelby county

      By rlh · Posted

      Trez's last scandal has died down, so I guess this is there opportunity to be the best 4A team playing in 2A a la Sissy MTN.  At least they won't be in a Z-district with 1a teams in the regular season.
