I wonder how many MLK kids would be on a Pearl Cohn dream team??

I don't know the school attended but their dream team would be an easy one to name and you would be hard pressed to find many schools statewide that would be able to play with them:

 

QB:  Deaunte Mason

RB:  Santonio Beard

TE:  John Henderson

SE:  Rashad Mason

SE:  William Johnson

FL:  Jimmeryous Parker

OL:  Albert Washington

OL:  Reggie Ridley

OL:  Joey Martin

OL:  Darren Hayes

OL:  Antonio Richardson*

Alcoa has had two receivers that haven't been named who didn't play their senior years who would easily have an argument to be listed:

 

Brian Sommer

Tykee Ogle-Kellogg

Both could have been very special in High School.  Seriously talented! Hope to see Tykee do well in College.

Going back in time....John Chiefy Wilson was solid as was Marc Burnett. I believe Marc was more on the basketball side, but a heck of an athlete. Some of the first memories I have as a kid were the Maryville Vs Alcoa battles featuring Albert Davis and Larry Johnston. Larry signed with UT and Albert should have, but ended up at Tennessee State. I know it was not as advertised back in those days, but I seem to remember that Albert was considered the top high school running back in the country by many college coaches.

    • Yeah I am on board and plan on coming down from the Ridge for some home games, great Friday night atmosphere there.  I'm really hoping SC can get them back going and have some success for those fans and community.  
    • Yep I was field level on the scoreboard end throwing ball with Benny when we had that brief lead. Everybody got very excited but it was short lived as Murvil regrouped and went into machine mode. But yeah,  that hit sounded like the crack of a black powder rifle being fire.  I believe Dozier took one like that as a Soph up at Greeneville after on olay block.  
    • Ole Benny boy lol. I forgot about Harder. He was tough as crap. He graduated in ‘09. I went to the OR/Maryville game that year (great game, btw) and he collided with Jacob West (I think was his name) and you could hear it clearly at the top of the visitor bleachers. Man, it was a stick. He could lay some wood son. All those guys were tough, Elliott included.
    • They do have good community support for sure and did when I coached under Z for 4 years. (I was on that staff that turned them around a little from winning 1 game a year to actually being competitive).  Great Kids and Great Community over there.  They have done some good things with the facilities from when i coached too. 
    • I personally will not mind that one bit.  It seems like a really strange fit to me from the git go.
