Very few high school 1A programs would schedule a 5 or 6A program during regular season.  I don't see how that would help your program.  TC scheduling Lebanon  was no surprise to me.  I had TC picked to beat Lebanon both years because I knew a little bit about both programs and this is Lebanon's first year to be competitive in a long time.  I wouldn't put our program up against Cookeville.  What can you gain from that ?

Monterey scheduled Cookeville first game for about 4 years. It was a great gate due to both teams in same county but they absolutely crushed us every year! I don't think Scheduling a 6a helps especially when Cookeville was like they was last year.

Did they Gordy QB not play this season? The guy I saw last week looked much smaller than the one I remember from last season. 

He transferred to Cookeville

Transferred his senior season. As Roy says, what’s this mess all about?

His dad was a coach. He transferred with his father I believe.

His dad was the baseball coach and an assistant football coach. Not sure if they decided to leave or if he was let go, but he is now a coach at cookeville and his son is with him.

Are you sure you lost to them last year? Monterey beat them so surely u guys did. I cant remember.

We did lose. It was a very frustrating game to watch.

Jackson, Cascade and ER are all region games for TC. Marion Co is playoff game that's not scheduled and FC are the defending state champions in the small private classification and where on a 15 game winning streak and Whitwell would have mercy-ruled Gordonsville for past two years and yes they are always a good team that makes the playoffs everyone that keeps up with football knew that they would be good and why would TC play Megis and Tyner when we have to play them in the playoffs if TC wins the next game will be against Tyner 

The reason I said that was because we were asked why we didn't play better teams outside of our region and our defense was the same as yours.  Why would we play a team that we will meet in the playoffs ? Read some of the old post on this thread and you would see why I said that.

Didn't gordy play Fayetteville in playoffs a couple of years ago?

I know it was a possibility both were coming to TC at one point. We would have gladly taken them. The boy is not only a good QB but is an excellent punter. 

I did not understand why the coach would leave after going to state in baseball? So I asked . I was told by a great source that the QB son did not want to play for the new coach. That was why both left.

TC also scheduled Gallatin. That was a huge moneymaker for both schools.

TC played Jackson Co. !!!  & Macon (5-5) Cascade (3-7) East Robinson (5-5) and playoffs vs Marion Co. (3-6).  You barely beat friendship, lost to H2O (who G'ville also plays) and got beat by Lebanon.  Yes, Lebanon is larger school and I commend you on playing them but I really don't think that your schedule is that superior to other programs.  Oh, by the way you got beat by Whitwell.  Whitwell is a Class 1A team with a lot of talent but I guarantee you that when that game was scheduled TC was expecting to come off with a big win and they were not playing them because "it's good competition and it will make us better".  You talk about us, why doesn't TC play Alcoa, Tyner, or Meigs ? 

Well coach, we did try to schedule Alcoa when Creasy was at TC. We just couldn't get the same date open. It is hard to do when you are in an 8 and9 team region. Tyner is a long road trip.

I have said before, he would have been a better hire than barker, but Clint just couldn't hire a guy that was the coach at RBS. Understandable but he is Coach on the rise, he will have the Tigers winning region titles soon. 

I agree with you.
