Doesn't look like anyone is ready to talk about it. Let it rest.

I would guess that in 5A on this side of the state it is pretty much always going to be Oak Ridge, Fulton, Catholic and Knox Central.

Catholic no longer allowed to play in 5A. They are now in the division two arena.

Oh yeah, that is a great point.     So it's going to always be OR, KC or Fulton.

Aside from that, lots of holes to fill on both sides of the ball but heard that the rising JR class is loaded and the rising Sr class has several key players returning. I’m going to go out on a limb here and say the entire offensive strategy will change with Gibbons at the helm. The defensive side will remain comparable to last year though I’d expect to see more corner blitzes. They have a few sophomores with great speed that just didn’t see a lot of playing time this season.

Kendall Jackson and Jaquez Johnson will be a few of the studs next few years. There are always a few who surprise us also. Also Blazer, don't forget Powell. They will be in that mix of teams too.

    • Tax payer dollars are paid for certified teachers to "teach" and then coach. The primary job is to teach.  There are some district that ay awesome supplements and others that don't. Dyersburg and Dyer County are pretty close if I remember correctly. I would imagine that Football and basketball are above $10,000 now.  I've heard that Milan is $20,000 for boys basketball. I would imagine that football is more than that in Milan.  Collierville has camps that coaches get paid extra for. 3 camps a year, 100 kids a camp, $30,000 right there.  There are places like Memphis-Shelby County schools where the supplements are garbage even for the head coaches. I made less than $3,000 as the head assistant at Germantown in 2015 when we were 26-4 and one of the best teams in the Southeast. As a head middle school coach next year I will make between $4-5,000 at a municipal in Shelby County.  Coaches should be compensated for the jobs that are required but lets keep in mind that they are educators first.  It's pretty frustrating to other teachers that work their tale off teaching 6-7 classes a day to watch someone roam campus, not teach (or have very minimal responsibilities), and get paid the same (more with supplements) as a person who has the some years of experience or sometimes less. 
    • This will get coaches leaving the profession very quickly if this kid wins this case. This is absurd... 
    • yeah money aint right there anymore
    • I suppose you are correct but from my understanding it was going to be a situation of the HC saying yay or nay to every play
