This will be a very ugly senior night for Polk County. They showed improvement this season. 0-10, 0-10, 3-7. I believe next year they will be back over .500 again.

They did better than I expected after seeing them in the preseason.But we also are a little better than I expected.Still see Marion with a running clock!

If the Polk teams of old ever return to that region people better watch out. Polk has been 2A again the last few years. They are staying down the next four as well. If they replicate what they had a few years ago in 3A they will be major players in 2A in the future.

Dont think those teams are the norm for Benton. They had a few good years for Polk and had a lot of good athletes. Dont think you can expect that very often up there.

Remember them coming and thumping a state team 42-6 or something like that

That was up there where they had those retro looking red and black uniforms.  They looked like the flying monkeys from Oz tossing the innards out of Scarecrow when they got itnt our offensive backfield.  Our team wasn't exactly slow either.

    • For perspective the county school I’m associated and graduated from only has 7,600 people in the entire county with a median age of roughly 47. That’s not very many 14-18 year olds to choose from. I think the football team had 25-28 kids or around there.  On the other hand Shelby County has 916,000+ with a median age of 36. This isn’t just about Shelby county, but all the big ones with huge economic advantages!  An urban/rural split would benefit tons of smaller schools that have to compete with counties with 120x the amount of people. Especially the ones who can pick and choose their players from a pool like that!   I also agree with Pujo about charter and magnets and they will eventually be phased into the private divisions because it is obviously an advantage plus all the funding! Add that county schools can’t go recruit outside of their county like charters and magnets! 
    • They should be starting next week and go from there.  They never do Spring Practice in April 
    • It will be interesting to see if the Warren County School District allows this to go before a jury or they settle out of court before going to trial.  My guess is that this case never goes to trial.  If this goes before a jury, they could award even more than the $750K.  I was on a jury where they were asking for 185K and were awarded 1.2 million.  You never know what will happen in that jury room.
