I have had a problem with the Milan stands for years especially the visitor stands. Haven’t been to Waverly in a couple of decades so I can’t comment on how bad theirs are but Milan is horrible. 

On another note though the stadium is about to get a complete over haul in the next couple of years. Both sides of the stands will be knocked down and rebuilt with the home side being on the current visitors side. The parking lot will be redone with an entrance paying homage to the 9 teams to have made it to the championship. All of that is a go. They are now trying to decide if they want turf or not. Combine all that with the new scoreboard they recently got with the field house that is in great shape and Johnnie Hale will look amazing. Excited for our future. 

Yall got the Cowboys new stadium compared to waverly..lol

If you are using the Walmart theory, I never understood how my friends at South Pitt are only 1A. Not only do they have a Walmart but they also have a Cracker Barrell. Not to mention the state's biggest fireworks store.

What we got that matters is Lodge Skillet.

Yes, and I agree. However, their weight room isn't the best and when I do attend games at Huntingdon, they seem to have scoreboard issues, which is included in "facilities" right? Also, I don't know how Huntingdon is 1A, but they are.

It’s been said numerous times why Huntingdon is 1A. There are 5 high schools in Carroll co.

Not trying to be argumentative, but you have to agree with his position. If you're going to use a comparison with another school,  Scotts Hill is 2AA football, and there's practically no "town" there around it, just as West Carroll and most 1A programs. Not accusing or speculating anything, but I do find it odd the disparity of size of some communities and their school enrollment.

Scott’s Hill is pulling many kids from Lexington.

Depends on what you call "many". Pin Oak and South Haven are classified as swing schools where student populations have traditionally split (since the late 70's, at least) which high school they attended... I can only think of a handful that have come from the other schools since our football program was started almost ten years ago (which has always been the case), and the most prominent was already a junior in our first season. By "handful", I'm speaking of less than ten.

Why does that blow your mind? Huntingdon ain’t third the size of Union City and they where 1a for years

 

 

A lot of kids who live in UC go to Obion. Huntingdon has a population double or more of WC's small towns and communities. Through this decade we've been as close as 10 or so to y'all in hs enrollment. The gap seems to be widening now though

Look at all the towns and communities that west Carroll pulls from. Atwood Mcley cedar grove trezvant. I hear Scott’s hill is getting kids from Lexington. 

Yeah Atwood has a population of 920. Trezevant 843 Mcley 333 and so on. Huntingdon has darn near 4k people there

I saw that, this is very much overdue

Hwy 72 exit off I 24 is the reason.

That’s Kimball you are thinking about . Some call it North Pittsburg, some call it South Jasper.

You got to have employees to run those stores and I doubt they are driving in from out of town to work at Hibbett's or Goodwill.
