I won’t cut on bdp being down, because Springfield has had some down cycles not to long ago. I will say this tho, when the agreement between Robertson and Sumner counties went by the way side, it put a bad hurt on White House. In all honesty it hasn’t really helped either school, athletically speaking, by splitting.

Honestly if the schools were still combined that would put us in 6A.  I just don’t think either school has the athletes that would make us good enough to compete at that level any better than we do in 4A.

That maybe true, but when it was one school it made it easier for some Robertson county atheletes that didn’t want to go to school on our side could go to White House. I know for a fact a few guys from the hay day late 90’s early 2000’s teams drove on over to White House and played.

I think what the schools splitting hurt the most was town support.  It’s gotten a little bit better, but I remember my junior and senior year (2010 & 2011) there would be almost no one in the stands for a lot of our home games.

I’ll agree with that. It did kinda draw a line in the sand so to speak.

When you win games and play well the stands won’t be the issue. 2004 and 2008 never had an issue with fans.

Of theose teams had athletes littered all over the field and White House hasn’t see that since then. Players need to learn it takes years to build a great team with players who have all grown together and competed at a high level. These guys since the 2008 squad just aren’t what White House is about.

Portland filled their stands while they were going 0-10 every year, yet we can’t fill ours while going to the quarterfinals 5 straight years in a row? We were winning more than enough games for the fans to show up.  And to act like there hasn’t been talent since the 08 team is ridiculous.  Trent Mcewen set every receiving record, grant wicker finished top 5 in all time rushing, Kevin Jackson set a couple tackling records, Taylor wood then broke his records, and the 2012 senior class had one of the best offensive lines that White House has ever had (thats from a coaches mouth, not mine).  Also me and 8 other kids that I played with went on and played some level of college football (that’s a lot for White House).  Were we as good as the 04 and 08 teams my junior and senior year? No probably not, but we definitely had talent.  

My point is if there hadn’t of been another school in town, we probably still could’ve packed out our stands even if we weren’t winning any games.

Actually the team last year was decently talented. So if we established that there has been talent that means it's either coaching, or scheme.  Both of them fall back on the coaching staff.  Maybe there needs to be a change.
