Appreciate the sentiment and your willingness to state such. I appreciate your dialogue as well. This is why WE all love HS football.

Will fairley bring some fans with them ?

I agree 

Yeah attendance has been scarce for the first two games of the playoffs. Granted we did beat our opponents a combined 86-0

Overall, there is a humongous difference. It's not even close. I know you will rebut, but it's the truth. It wouldn't be fair to the 2A school. It's why there are different classes.

I agree that’s why there are different classes. I have done some research on hernando and fairley. I need to watch more video of fairley. 
I did notice fairley roster seems to be small possibly not all players are listed. I think we may have the advantage there. Peabody’s roster counting freshman is close to the size of hernando’s roster.  I wonder how many fairleys players play both ways.  Do you happen to know ?

If you haven't noticed my avitar, I'm a Whitehaven alum and fan. I've been going to Whitehaven games for over two decades, approaching 3. I remember when Saulsberry took over as the HC at Whitehaven over 15 years ago. The program is now light years better now, then when he first got the job. He, and the coaching staff had to learn and grow and improve themselves in order to consistently go deep into the playoffs an to win championships. Coach Robinson has coached under Saulsberry, but now he is evolving as a HC. It took Saulsberry a few cracks at the egg to get past certain levels. Coach Robinson has exceeded what his mentor has done. He's coaching a team in the QFs in only his 3rd season as a HC. He coached his team to be undefeated region champs in his first season. He is special and we all knew it when he coached at the Haven. He does a football camp in the summer that he's been doing for 7 years or more. He has current college and pros that are from Memphis to come and participate. He may or may not crack the Peabody nugget on this try. Time will tell. However, I feel confident saying this ... if he stays at Fairley, they will bring home a gold ball(s) in the near future.

Cool I'll inform the other teams to go ahead and turn in their equipment. 

They already know.

I knew you were a big whitehaven fan. Robinson is no doubt a good coach he has turned fairley around. I don’t think they were ever successful until he got there. 
 

not to out do you just some facts. 2015 was Jacobs first year as head coach and he went to semis and lost to nashville christian. This is his fifth season and I think he has only lost around 8-9 games.

I can't answer that, but you should be able to tell on the film. I remember when Teli White was dominating 2A when at Trezvant. He would dress out about 35 - 40 guys. That's it. A few went both ways, not a lot. I would suspect the same at Fairley.

Fairley's roster is probably going to hover around the 40ish number. It's different in the city. Rural 1A & 2A schools will get more participation in their football programs then a 1A/2A program in the city. It's a totally different thing altogether.

Impressive. I'm looking forward to more of these games in the future, should Robinson stay at Fairley.

I just appreciate you & @BlackHavenSenator for repping these smaller Memphis teams to give us some football talk the past few weeks

Don't forget Havengrad04, he will pop in from time to time. I do a thing in the 5A/6A forum called BGIM. In it I place hyperlinks to threads throughout CoachT for people to come and get involved in the conversation. There are very few posters on here from the Memphis area to rep the schools, especially the smaller ones

This is the 8th time Peabody has made it to the 3rd round in school history. The big stat on this is Peabody is 7-1 in 3rd round dating back to the only loss was a couple years ago at UC. Historically the deeper we make it, the more I like our chances
