rebelwoman87 Posted November 25, 2016 Report Share Posted November 25, 2016 I was about to say the same. Lol Maryville sure isn't void of talent by any means. Maybe not as much as Oakland, but I don't think it's as big of a disparity as people like to claim. I never said we didn't have talent. Never implied it either.

rebelwoman87 Posted November 25, 2016 Report Share Posted November 25, 2016 Why do people act like maryville doesn't have D1 talent? In the 15 years maryville has been to the state title they've had 20 D1 players come through the program (I might be off by a few individuals). And they've also had numerous Mr. Football winners and nominees, almost one per year. How many other programs in the state can make the same claim? I never said we didn't have talent.

SweetScience Posted November 25, 2016 Report Share Posted November 25, 2016 I never said we didn't have talent. Never implied it either. Didn't say you did, but a lot of people think there is a big talent difference between y'all and some of the more talented teams y'all have played. IMO the disparity in talent level isn't as wide as some folks claim it to be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stewart-Auburn, Robinette-Vanderbilt, Douglas-Tennessee and Alabama, Burnett-Colorado briefly, Jackson -Stanford, Thompson-South Carolina briefly. Care to name me those other fourteen and I'm not talking about any of the military academy's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maples originally signed with UT, Guillermo, Blackmon will more than likely end up signing with a D1 school. The Military Academy's are D1 schools Barn so they count, too.

SweetScience Posted November 25, 2016 Report Share Posted November 25, 2016 What about Chatt and TTU? Yes, I think so, but not 100% sure about that. Vaughn (Air Force), Burgess (Army)? I count the service academy's. I sure as heck do when our guys sign with one haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BarneySox2007 Posted November 25, 2016 Report Share Posted November 25, 2016 You know what's funny about that whole situation is that Douglas, Burnett and Jackson's families moved here from Knoxville because they wanted exposure for their kids and not get stuck on a losing team over there no one would see. Gullermo's family was transfered here but Coach Brooks at Clemson who was recruiting Jay told them to send jay to Maryville. Robinette's dad was a principal out at Heritage Middle and they let him go over sending his kid to Maryville because he didn't want him in that mess out there. Only Stewart and Thompson were original Maryville players. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
