Interesting. The two teams that played in last year's championship game have the least amount of starters returning. He has the number 2 team on the list being a team that has a brand new HC. I can't blame that selection either. The assumption will be that Maryville will continue to be Maryville even though GQ is no longer on the sidelines. The residual affect of GQ's influence will still be felt for a while, in my opinion. I think it will linger for at least the next two seasons. Then throw in last year's champion and runner-up from 5A. 

 

I wonder, would he have just flipped the positions of Oakland and Whitehaven in this list if the results of last year's championship game would have been reversed? Food for thought.

 

Anywho ... it's a good stab at it.

If we are talking Class 6A then all conversations must start with Maryville. They don't end there because there are a lot of good 6A teams.

 

Maryville will not drop off any, they have so much talent in their pipelines it is scary. I cannot remember a time when Oak Ridge has beaten a Maryville Freshmen, JV or varsity team.

 

Best of luck to all the 6A teams but Go Maryville

 

RWR!

In reality there are probably a half dozen teams max actually capable of winning a state championship in each classification every year.  Donovan did a pretty solid job in this 6A projection, in my opinion.  At this point it is hard to rank teams 1,2,3, etc, but I think his top 6-8 are pretty much on the money, and they could probably be ranked 1-8 in just about any order.  

 

Donnovan is a good friend and a solid contributor.  I know for a fact that he talks to a lot of football people statewide and gets a ton of input from people who are closely involved before he puts out those projections.  It's not something he takes lightly.

IMHO, Bradley always seems to be rated well pre-season.

Replacing the QB will be no small feat, and their schedule is challenging.

Time will tell whether they earn the attention.

They are ranked high for good reason. They have been a tough team the past few years.

    • I am going to assume you are not a lawyer, and most reasonable lawyers would not say the lawsuit has a zero percent chance in court. I agree with you that a coach has the ability to dismiss anyone from a team. However, Ms. Winfree was never presented with the opportunity to present her witnesses and have them tell the coaches and administrators what they heard. A lawyer could better explain the lawsuit and the grounds to you. Before you start making wild assumptions about the lawsuit, would it be too much to ask that you do a little legal research first? The lawsuit is dealing with due process, loss of property, and defamation.   You can read the lawsuit here: https://bdnewsletter.files.wordpress.com/2024/04/doc-1-complaint-filed-4-18-2024.pdf  
    • The administration took the path of backing the coach and whispering to people that the kid was a problem. The reality is that the kid was never a problem on a team or classroom. The player says she has witnessed who back her not saying the f-word.  Why did the coach make that story up and other stories? I am not Sigmund Freud and do not have an answer for the ex=-coach's behavior..  
    • I think they have they coach they want close to being done. I guess we will all see how this plays out. I hope the hire a good one. There are some players in the box for the next coach to work with. 
    • Going to grundle Troy Fleming?
    • I agree I don't think it will go to trial either, but I feel like that will be because no judge would deem this to warrant a law suit... If the school board settles, they loose and all coaches and schools loose too.
