TennesseeVol Posted November 13, 2016 Report Share Posted November 13, 2016 I don't think a Madison co public will win a state title any time soon...the school board and central office have made that very evident...they refuse to support local athletics bc they have such poor academic standards...a 21 on the ACT is a goal for high schoolers??? That's a joke...the curriculum they force is ridiculous...students don't have to take tests if they have a high attendance record, you're kidding me...they don't want to look like hypocrites by having state championship caliber teams...we can't even get buses to away games here...the answer is to get down to 1 or 2 public high schools...stop spreading the resources so thin I have to agree with you DHS. I don't think any team win a state title anytime soon, possibly in any sport. I don't think the school board simply cares about athletes for their schools. I pour absolutely no money into them, everything that a school wants has to be by funding. North Side was suppose to get a new football stadium due to safety reasons, that money went to iPad's to the middle schoolers at the academy thing at Northeast Middle. I am totally for putting turf fields on all 3 public schools and here's why: 1. Family. I am assuming coaches, parents, and a few players are painting the field on Wednesday and Thursday nights, but that's time away from family. Also, when there is a middle school game on Thursday night, North Side coaches would have to wait until the game is over just to paint the field. Which would be about 8:00/8:30-11-midnight. 2. In the long run, it probably saves money. I hope a D-Burg supporter helps me out on this. I know turf fields are expensive, but with it lasts 8-10 years I believe it saves you a little bit of money, not having to buy all that paint. Just curious on how much the turf field cost Dyersburg 3. Too many non-Friday night games. Since North Side is land-locked, we have to let our soccer players play on the football field. And with girls soccer, freshman games, middle school games, JV games, and boys soccer in the spring. It has to kill the football field. I do think the academic standard is too low. I truly believe that if you don't put to your standards sky high, you're just setting yourself up for mediocrity. But the ACT prep teachers don't want to teach and the students always want to take classes with their favorite teachers. That's what gets me! Students just don't realized that a 21 ACT score gets them into every university except UT-Knox. So I don't think they get it, also don't want to learn either. Also, if a coach lets a player that has a D, that coach should be suspended (I don't think that happens, but it won't surprise me). Everything is Academic, academic, and it's not working out.

TrojanTrain Posted November 13, 2016 Report Share Posted November 13, 2016 These two teams have been the BEST two teams in the district all year. It will take a lot for Dyersburg to win this one but nobody thought they would beat Liberty in 2014 or Milan this year without Fields.

hogman49 Posted November 14, 2016 Author Report Share Posted November 14, 2016 (edited) I think this game is going to be very physical and very close. If you take a look at the same opponent scores they are close and some are by same margin. Liberty 48 - 19 over Dyersburg 29 points 47 - 0 over Westview 47 points 35 - 0 over South Gibson 35 points 49 - 7 over McNairy 42 points 45 - 7 over Southside 42 points 28 -25 over Milan 3 points Dyersburg 19 - 48 lost to Liberty 49 -3 over Westview 46 points 1 point different 35 - 7 over South Gibson 28 points 42 - 0 over McNairy 42 points same 28 - 2 over Southside 26 points 27 - 24 over Milan 3 points same But I got to take Liberty in a very close one Liberty 27 Dyersburg 21 Edited November 14, 2016 by hogman49 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trojan Posted November 15, 2016 Report Share Posted November 15, 2016 100% chance the Trojans get taken to pound town. Only thing there is a 100 % chance of is rain. I'm not one to be unrealistic and will say Liberty is the better team on paper but you can't be unrealistic and say rain will not be in Dyersburgs favor. Actually could be a equalizer IMO .

bglass Posted November 16, 2016 Report Share Posted November 16, 2016 I went to see Liberty play Milan last Friday night . I haven't seen that many athletes on one team since we -Covington- played Fulton in the championship game in 2102. They have 8-10 guys who look like they are fully grown ,we haven't had that many athletes on one team ever I don't think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Possibly, but here's the thing...what if by some great act, it doesn't rain...do you think your boys will hang their heads and not fight back??? I hope not... Cause whether it pours or not, you know exactly what Liberty is gona do Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
