Douglass, or any other City of Memphis 1A team, is going to have to stop the run to beat these teams. Plain and simple. Consistemtly. It can be done. They are going to have to learn how though. This game should serve as a learning tool for the future for Douglass. If they can compete with Southwind. They can compete with Union City.

They barely beat us. And we turned the ball over on the 5 and 10 yard line and should have scored. So if u want use southwind as a measuring stick. Then this is mine UC destroyed us. I will say UC has trouble defending the pass so you never know. Just don’t think Douglass is ready for this next level.

This guy is a straight shooter,and has seen both teams!Understand this BigEdMo doesn't speak out of the side of his mouth!If he says Douglas isn't ready then put it in the bank,lock it up and count it as gold!Or as a GOLDEN Tornado W

His name is Jok Nebk. According to the Shelby Metro Sports Blog Website, on the individual stats page, he's completed 86 passes and thrown for 1499 yds on the season with 14 passing TDs. I don't know his classification. He's not listed on either HUDL or MaxP reps.

Thanks for that link...

Oh, I don't think they are ready this year. That's why I said that "they are going to have to learn how". My Southwind comment means that they have the athletic capability right now ... but they don't have the 'know how'. That takes time to develop. This is the learning stage. This is where they learn how high of a level that they need to rise to. As long as they progress each year ... get better and better. The coaches have to learn and it will translate to the players. They aren't ready this year ... but you have to be in it to see the next level. They are in the beginning stages. They've learned and experienced winning a 1st round game.  Let's see how they compete in Round 2.

I agree. But that’s the way it is for any team.

On occassion, you have a team that goes from a losing culture to deep advancement into the playoffs, but generally speaking, yeah, most have to learn it if they have never been there before.

    • RR, you might remember. Didn’t someone hide the kicking shoe that game? It seems I remember we had missed a kick the week before, and we needed all the points we could get. We thought we had a better chance going for two, so $?&@$ hid the shoe after the first miss that game. No one on our sideline looked for it very hard.
    • I will never forget the 1983 Heritage vs Maryville game. I remember driving home and listening to WGAP. Can't remember the announcers name. He asked Coach Story why he kept going for 2? Story told him " Why didn't you ask Renfro that last year"
    • TSSAA will let them all go to Mase.
    • Well nothing new, the Mustangs are really talented again this coming season!  They very well could go undefeated in regular season.  We shall see what happens in postseason.  I think the path to state title game is a little clearer than years past.  I think the Stangs are going to be really good and I think the traditional teams around in 2A are not going to be as strong.  It should be a fun season!
