I had forgotten that Glencliff was the 5A Runners Up in 1999. My how things have changed. 

Many things can change over the course of 20 years.  MNPS system is so messed up that while it could be fixed it would take a miracle.  Nashville is much like St. Louis, Missouri  and Cincinnati, Ohio in that families look to attend a private school or move outside the county in search of a much better a safer school system.

That kinda makes since. What about sumner and Rutherford? They always have Nashville kids playing.

I've always heard when kids get kicked out of MNPS, they end up at LaVergne. I don't have any first hand knowledge and cannot validate. I do not believe Rutherford Co has any type of tuition requirements. 

 

I only know about Williamson's tuition because I know 2 Rutherford Co kids who attended Centennial and Independence.

I've never heard of this. I learned something new but seriously don't think that works in middle tn

Lots of places do it.

Trousdale County started doing it this year. Kids can pay and come from out of county.

Its kind of like an arms race between countries. You may not want to do it or be doing it but if your opponent is doing it then they have to in order to keep up.

Only way some programs will be able to keep up with the elite programs that get high profile transfers

That sounds right or at least it used to be that way and it's very wrong and unfair for metro to ship their worst delinquent thugs to LHS.  I'm not sure who it was at RCS that agreed to such an arrangement, but if it's still in place, it needs to end.  Let metro deal with their own.

How long do you think Hendersonville or Mt. Juliet would accept a deal like that?

Hendersonville does not.  Sumner has cracked down on out of county students.

    • Deja vu all over again, 7 yrs apart. SMDH Does anybody talk to each other?
    • OK, well, that’s because two quarterbacks can’t start. That’s football 101. The main quarterback won the starting job, so he was on varsity, and the Seymour transfer did not win the starting job. He played some varsity. He was mainly junior varsity, and he balled out when healthy, so for the starting quarterback who’s been starting varsity since his freshman year, if you have any form of proof that he’s gotten worse, somehow, whether that means stats or whatnot, please feel free to share.
    • They’ve both gotten worse. I’ve seen enough games to know that. 
    • The only two transfers that Bearden has gotten that went on to play college football were a defensive back from Karnes, who transferred here way before the new coaching staff got here, and a running back from Carter, who went on to play at Maryville College. Both players received those offers while at Bearden, and both players got a diploma from Bearden High School. Therefore, they are Bearden kids, and you can’t do anything about that.   The transfer from Seymour didn’t win the job, what do you expect two quarterbacks to start at the same time? He played great on JV when he could stay healthy, and when he came in on varsity, he did great. The quarterback position is definitely going to be in good hands when the current starting quarterback leaves, but until then, they’re just going to be battling it out like every good quarterback competition does. The current starting quarterback has his flaws, and that is in the pass game, but what he doesn’t have flaws is running and scrambling, and if you go back and watch any game, which I’m sure you didn’t watch any, we used him very often, and when we needed a deep ball, we brought in the transfer from Seymour. The starting quarterback last year will be a senior this year, and the Seymour transfer will be a junior, so the Seymour transfer is definitely going to get his spotlight. He may even win the job this year. Football isn’t about who the newspaper thinks is the best kid. The best kid in the position will win the starting job, and I trust the coaching staff more than a newspaper or article to pick my starting QB.
    • I mean, we’ve only gotten two transfers that went on to play college football, one who went to UT Martin came his second semester junior year before the new coaching staff was here, and the other one went on to play at Maryville College, in which I don’t believe he had any interest prior to transferring.
