REGION 5 | 2A


Recommended Posts

I give props to Summertown for win last Friday didn't see that coming. 

Things are about to get a lot tougher for them, as they play CA, Forrest, and LC back to back to back.   A lot people are ripping them for being excited.  Heck if I was a 4 year program that went 1-9 last year, and beat WC, I'd be a little excited too.  I know of several schools around that are happy just to be 1-1 right now. 

I've been around this area for a long time.  I don't have a dog in the fight, but I can remember a lot of the other teams that are bashing Summertown for their facilities not having such great facilities many, many, many years ago.  I read where most of their facilities have been done by private donations and nothing from the county or BOE.  Like I said, I've been around long enough to remember Forrest before the new field, when they played on the tractor pull field and didn't have the dressing room that was built there.  I remember CA parking on the hill before it was a parking lot, and people getting stuck there as well...lol.  And way before they had the "AWESOME" new home side or even the visitor concession and bathroom.  Wayne County when they played on their baseball outfield.  So even though I have no ties to Summertown, I give them some props, as two years ago I remember when Richland went there, they dressed in Fireworks tents and concessions were in a utility shed.  I haven't seen it, but someone told me they actually have locker rooms now with air, and a concession stand.  Still have porta potty and of course still parking in grass, and no big bleachers, but if this is true, they have come a long way in three years if done by private citizens with no BOE help or County Money. 

Now as far as this region goes, I see it has CA winning the region by a 2 TD margin against everyone they play in the region "If" they can stay healthy.  I believe Forest and LC will play for second and third.  Eagleville will finish 4th but has the potential to possibly upset Forrest or LC.  Community and Summertown are about equal at 5-6 but both 2 TD minimum below CA, Forrest, LC, and Eagleville.  Loretto isn't real far behind both of them.  A lot can happen with injuries, turnovers, etc on any given night, but just what I think.

Totally agree.

Can't argue based on what we've seen so far. Certainly hope Forrest has a chance. We did last year..we were up 6-0 in the 4th. They will say they are better than that game this year. I think we are too.

CA has been pretty dominant so far to start of the season, but I don’t think they’re anywhere near where they’re gonna be come week 8 or 9. This is one of the most talented CA teams I’ve seen so far. The running back Tre will be an easy contestant for Mr Football and the QB is one of the best athletes you’ll see at this level. Committed to play baseball for UT as a freshmen and can sling that football. The only weakness that I can see with them so far, which really isn’t a weakness, is the line which isn’t quite as good as it has been the past few years. This is just because they are young for the most part and still developing.

This reminds me of the MTCS/Justin Winn folks in 2014 and the Watertown/Ty Love folks in 2016. 

Don't underestimate The Rock. 

 

 

I don’t think anyone is underestimating Forrest. But us CA fans every reason in the world to once again be confident that we will win the region without a single loss.

    • Im asking everyone to keep roy whited and his family in your prayers. Coach whited won back to back state championships at white county in 98-99. He is very well liked and respected in this area. For those of you that dont know he went missing 3 days ago. No one knows where he is. His truck was found in a rural part of the county. Thanks again. We are all very concerned. 
    • West would be a good team to get behind if they can pull it off again like last year. That championship game last year was awesome. 
    • I say that because he stepped out of a MUCH better situation on his own than he would see at least his first 3 years at DCA and it would take at least that much to bring him back to coaching. There are other fish in the sea, but again money talks. Need to fix the girls hoops too. Now I'll try again. Who has Pierce locked in for his staff? Hearing a McGavock man but not the Iceman.
    • I’ve heard mostly good things from the gridiron. Lots of optimism. It sounds like the portal has mostly helped, though there are a few expected defections. Comeback year!
    • Rudesell 1 year at Crockett. Coach Tate 2 weeks a Bradford. South Gibson supposedly going with jcs middle school coach. Which isn’t who I thought would get it, I know the top 2 was between him and Obion girls head coach.
