I still say 7-3. I think we find a way to beat Haywood in Brownsville this year. Beech is expected to be very tough, if not the favorite in 5A, and they’ve probably had a picture of our logo hanging at the center of a locker room dartboard all offseason. After beating them twice last season, and playing at Shackle Island? That’s gonna be a tough one. 

Brentwood High and Germantown will be strong. HC has not traditionally fared too well against larger schools. Germantown having a new coach could factor in, but that’s still a long road trip and I hear their cupboard is far from bare. 

The region should be a clean sweep.

I can see this as well. Very good analysis. I think we drop a tough one to Beech on the road, and win 1 of 2 against Brentwood and Germantown. Both will be very tough matchups but I just think we’ll be better mid season, barring any key injuries, than we will be at the start. Especially with several new starters, including quarterback.

Says HC when I look at it? I don’t think there’s anything to worry about there, from what I’ve been told he’s 100% solid to us.

Him and 3 other Martin MS players were at the Martin Wal-Mart yesterday trying to raise money for the future stars team. Wonder how the people in Martin would feel if they knew the money they were giving was going to a kid who was going to be playing for HC in a few months??

Don’t see what it matters really. He’s still technically a Martin athlete at this point, and I assume the other 3 players are staying put in Martin right? I don’t see how anyone over there could blame the kid for leaving under the circumstances. The person I talked to about him a few days back said everyone knew he was gone. Either way, I’m glad we are getting him.

I didn’t say the kid was wrong for wanting to go to HC. I probably would too. Just don’t know if people in Martin know it. They might think twice about donating money to him.

If we Henry Countians know he’s coming, I’m pretty sure the people of Martin know he’s leaving. Either way I don’t see the big deal. You make this all-star team due to your performance on the field right? Which he would’ve done as a member of their Jr High team.

Trust me I know personally that people in Martin know he is leaving. Some are supportive and some are not. That's just how it is. The kid and his parents have nothing bad to say about Martin. They love it, the kid just wasn't going to get the playing time at Martin behind Ty Simpson. He will have much more playing time at Henry County and he has several family members in HC.

I’ve heard the same and I don’t think they’re trying to hide it. Like I said, I don’t see anything wrong with what they’re doing, he made this team as a Martin athlete. Plus there’s other players involved as well. I don’t see the issue. Sounds like someone stirring the pot a little to me.

There has been a lot of talk about this upcoming season based on a kid that might be coming from Martin. Whether he becomes what he is hyped to be or not this Henry county team will be successful. If he is given the opportunity and preference that the older kids have not seen, he will not be glorified like what has been shown on this board. The older kids will be looking for their shot in practice.  How the coaches manage this will be interesting to see. The kid is not a super athlete, he is a kid that has worked hard and has developed a skill set uncommon for a kid his age. There are 4 or 5 kids per year in Henry county that have the same ability. They have just not been following the Simpson kid around for two years to all the 7 on 7 camps and other functions developing a skill set. The next 4 years will be successful in Henry county just like the previous decade or so based on the the kids from Henry county.

I get what you are saying and maybe he doesnt even start this next year. And that's fine. But the kid has more talent than you know. The hype is real and I cant wait for Ryan to show out whether it is this coming season or next. The kid right now in the 8th grade has Will Parrish ability to throw the ball when he was in 12th grade. It's just an exciting time in Henry County. The next 4 years for sure will be fun times.

I saw one of the Inman games, and some video. He is accurate and his mechanics are good. The highlight reels show some 35 yard passes over the top that receivers are are running good routes and making good catches. There are current QB’s that can throw further than that and have more athletic ability, but they may not turn into the polished passer the kid from Martin looks to be. 

Saw this post you had made. Had a few questions. First off name a QB on Henry Countys roster right now that has the most athletic ability? Second, if the freshman can throw 35 yards over the top with accuracy why are you concerned with throwing it any further?

    • Yea I agree I will say tho I was a big “ v “ fan if an  opening ever did happen I think it would’ve been good to see him have a shot coming from a power house like Oakland. I’m sure he’s learned a lot from Kevin.  I bet he would bring a really good offense scheme IMO But after all this I just dunno anymore.  Whatever happens with the rumors an such if it did come to and opening I think this messes it all up.  The board members dreams are slowly slipping away now. I haven’t lived there for awhile I just hear what I hear, but my question is would there be any good potential candidates?? That’s why I don’t understand why people want b s out so bad who else could do any better ?? IMO there’s nothing attractive about it? As I stated earlier I went to the last game last year and taking a leak in a porta Potty is pretty sad and still nothing being done they say .. 
    • I have a sophomore that can do 177 (preferred) or 192. Sent you an email.
    • speaking of board members how can a man get arrested 12 days ago and still be head coaching a team in TC school system? looks like your right about the tc board members. I bet it would be different if they had a kid on the team
