2018 Sequatchie Valley Jamboree Schedule

[TheAmbassador]

Whitwell was by far the best team there last night. They have a huge senior class. It’s been said on here many times. This is their year to get it done. If they don’t get it done then it’s not happening for them. Next year they will be mercy ruled several times. That senior class is just special for them. As for Marion County.. they have several quality athletes. They need work in the line, but likely had some kids out. Sequatchie County... I feel was sand bagging. They have virtually their entire team back so I know it will be a tough game next Friday night for SP. Finally for SP... got a long way to go. I think the defense can keep them in games. Offensively wasn’t very good. I understand SP only has 5 seniors, but the others need to get it done. One positive is I was told that we had our two best linemen out last night and they start on both sides of the ball. Can anyone confirm if this is accurate?

Bass, I will take a bet on this one. Whitwell will drop off next year, thats a given with this class. Return enough to win some games. Mercy ruled several times is a stretch.

Oh I disagree I watched the tyner scrimmage and their best player was in street clothes. That was not the same tyner team as last year,not even close. if you are worried about speed, SC is not as fast as WHS,MCHS or SP. I saw where SC did not have two kids dress out. But I have a question? Do those kids play on the line? Because that is where ya'll got beat last night,up front.

I can answer that for you they don’t lol

My take on the games:

Qrt 1  GrundyCounty vs South Pittsburg

Grundy looked a lot better than last couple of years. They seemed to be focused and seem to respond well to the new coach.  Their QB is a ball player and seems to have a ton of football sense, and there were a couple on defense that looked great, prob the nunley boys. Their line looked much improved and had descent size just need to stay in the weight room.  SP looked best when Raulston had the ball.  The line didn’t do as great as I was thinking they should have.  The QB still has a long ways to go unless he’s running with the ball.  When passing it seemed he was too worried about everything around him and the play at hand, rather than being chilled.  Sometimes a young QB only thinks about how many drop steps and just slinging the ball to the area of the WR.  He works best in open spaces instead of behind the LOS.   IMO we looked extremely sluggish.  We really don’t have much speed at all.  Maybe it was just the wet field.  The fastest on the field seemed to be Frame #4 for us.  I would like to see him returning kickoffs.  We have a long ways to go.  The way I seen it last night, Coach Grider is gonna have to light a fire under them boys.  

Qrt 2  Whitwell vs SequatchieCounty

Whitwell is the best team in the Valley IMO.  I said it a few years ago last time we played Grundybin regular season that the Wingo kid was the real deal.  I still believe he is the best (most complete back too) back in the Valley.  Their line pushed people around easily.  SC had some great moments, but have a lot of work at the LOS to do.  They have a few athletes that could play for anyone.  They should make the playoffs, but how far depends on how much they want it. 

Qrt 3  BledsoeCounty vs LookoutValley

Two teams that are already wishing basketball season was here.  Both have a couple athletes, but not enough supporting cast to help out.  

Qrt 4  MarionCounty vs Silverdale

Jasper has a ton of athleticism, and the spread is the right choice for them.  The Nunez kid is special.  Put him on the field as much as possible.  Where do they keep gettting these tall lanky receivers?  They have height but need to put on some weight.  I’m not too sure the line can hold anyone long.  Silverdale is one of those teams that you may never hear much about but they always seem to be in the mix.  They seem to be coached okay, just need to put in the work and it will payoff for them come playoffs. 

Qrt 5  BledsoeCounty vs South Pittsburg

SP sluggish and need to get out of their own heads. Bledsoe never quits. 

Qrt 6  GrundyCounty vs SequatchieCounty

new Coach at GC seems to have the kids attentions.  SC is slowly going down hill.  

Qrt 7  Whitwell vs Silverdale

Not much to say about this one 

 Qrt 8  MarionCounty vs LookoutValley

 Freshman for Jasper seems to be the future.  Plus their middle school team is loaded.  I see big big things for Jasper 2021-2022.  Coach Mariakis at Chattanooga Christian and Tyners recently great years has and will continue to put a damper on LV’s football program.  

ORDER OF BEST TEAMS IMO:

1) Whitwell

2) SP

3) Jasper

4) Grundy

5) Tie - Sequatchie, Bledsoe, Silverdale

8) Lookout Valley

It seems we always have good skill guys and small line. Then we will have good sized line but skill guys aren't the greatest. That all changes in the next couple years. We have some big linemen coming up and a ton of skill kids.

You have a great football team with a chance to have a special season in 2018. However if you play Trousdale again next year. Yes, that chance of several times exists. Just my opinion, time will tell. You boys just enjoy this great 2018 season for now.

Whitwell was just really impressive.

All those athletes coming up. It’s going to be like Mr. Rogers Neighborhood. You know where he changes sweaters everyday, but every sweater is basically the same thing. The only difference for you is it will be tons of different kids.
