Macon rb/db and their TE/DE are very good but over all still in rebuilding mode under second year coach Shoulders. 

They were a physical football team. Great opponent for us to scrimmage. Only negative was the distance between the towns. We're in year 3 of our rebuild so we can relate.

I never said they were a good 4A playoff team. :-D  Should be comparable to Portland and Lawrence Co though. 

Macon Co finished 2nd in their region but got swept by Marshall Co's region in the first round. So their best region team would be no better than 5th place in Region 4-4A. 

Does Macon have speed this year to compete with Trousdale?  Will they even give TC a the game this year? Also how good was Portland last year, Trousdale plays Portland later on this season.

No

No

We play Portland in week 2 so I can give you my opinion of them in a few weeks. Last season Macon County was a TD better than Portland. Macon County was outscored 61-7 by Trousdale and Westmoreland. 

Trousdale should breeze past both this year.

That doesnt sound like you think Forrest would be competitive with Trousdale. 

I think you'll have a hard time with Trousdale. It's a different level that TC plays at to me only Peabody Meigs and Trousdale have a chance at 2A championship.

Not after watching the two teams square off in a 2017 scrimmage and seeing the 2018 Watertown debacle at homecoming. They haven't gotten any worse and we haven't gotten that much better. 

Watertown folks are thinking they will be nearly as good as last year. H20man pretty much said this himself.

Salem, do you truly think this team can go 10-0

It sounds like you guys are gonna be much improved over last year ?

If they stay healthy and avoid the usual undisciplined, stupid penalties they should be favored in the first nine games. Lewis County will be a tough but winnable game. 

Sounds like a good team.

We won 5 games and gave Waverly a game in the playoffs. We also dropped BGA, Watertown, and CA from the schedule so we could win 8, 9, or even go 10-0 this season and not be "much" improved from a talent level. Our 2017 and 2018 teams did not lack for talent.

I see what you mean. I didnt realize you had an easier schedule.

    • Ouch! If he's in the scrap business maybe 
    • That's a nice story but has little to nothing to do with what we're talking about. 
    • The winds of change are blowing in Hartsville.     Will be an interesting follow.    Would go back to the 90s and turn black the clock!
    • Did he promise you a coordinator job or something if he ever got a head coaching job? He resigned? He was at the top of the dugout last night calling plays. I wonder if those 30+ parents would let him give their kids a ride. by the way the board meeting was last night and it was not mentioned. must have been at the work session earlier this week which is not public. must be trying to keep it quiet.  Since you know so much, how much is Robbie Atwood willing to pay Adam Cothron?  Didn't you slander Eden earlier on here? You also didn't know he was a faculty coach again so how much do you really know? Some people outside this county baffle me with their need to slander others.    
    • He resigned smh, and have you ever heard of charged but not convicted. Some people in this county baffle me with their need to slander others. Have you asked any of the 30+ parents that signed a petition to get him reinstated at the board meeting this week how they feel about this? Just let it play out, at the end of the day the only people that will bring TC back are the ones that know what its about at its core.    People hate losing and they aren't used to it at TC. I for 1, and I'm sure others too, understand having a dip in talent and not being able to compete for a state title every year. But in the past, TC teams have outworked more talented teams, they didn't continuously lose the turnover battle, they didn't commit 8+ penalties in several games each season, and I believe several of the folks in town that want Blake out feel as if he is neglecting the history of the program. This is from a source that used to be extremely close to the program (not me lol), Blake gets out of school midday and the players show up and there is no practice plan or itinerary.  I also understand those that are on team Blake, when he has loads of talent, he wins. He does know football and he is a tremendous DC, and if the rumors are true then he will do great things. As for the board member issue, it is what it is, everyone that's true to the county know that and nothing has changed. I agree though that they should strive to make the facilities as good as we can. And as far as potential candidates, I agree there is very few options. West, Vetetoe (yes I know), and couple others that could have some interest. Whatever happens is massive for the program during a pivotal time before the next big wave of stars make their way through.
