I'm not saying any specific kid didn't deserve to be on the team and I'm not being negative but...

Hard to believe they left off Sankey and Cox from the All state team offense. Loudon had three guys on the All State offensive team but lost to Alcoa 56-0 in the semis. PC had 4 All state players and Alcoa beat them 27-0 in the state championship game. 

Sankey and Cox were two of the top ten players in the state in 3A and its not close.

Alco Defense only gets two?!?! LOL No Blankenship?! No Tollett?!? No Armstrong!?!

Alcoa outscored everyone in the region 304-0! Alcoa D had ten shutouts.  During the season they faced a team with an All State QB and WR and beat them 42-0 and faced another  team with an All state RB and beat them 56-0.

In the semis and state championship game faced an undefeated team with three All state players and beat them 56-0! In the state championship game faced a team with 4 All state players and beat them 27-0. 

I know everyone has to be politically correct these days and that's why deserving kids got left off, but its still a shame. At least four of those kids deserved All State honors. Earned it and proved on the field decisively against kids that were named All state.

......................... We should just rename the entire state of Tennessee to Alcoa, just to see what there is to complain about next..... take your 100 state championships and your FOUR All-State selections and be happy.I guarantee any of those kids who aren't from Alcoa would gladly trade an All-State selection for some championship rings.

Its only 18 State championships. Five All State selections is good, however I was  making an objective case for at least 3 others that I believe deserved as well.

I have no dog in this race, but I do have an opinion... if you are as totally dominant on both sides of the ball as is Alcoa, nobody has the right to knock one of their fans for sticking up for the kids on the team. He could have said they all deserved to be selected and who could have made an argument with substance to "prove" otherwise? He also could have called out kids from other teams in comparison to the Alcoa kids, but chose not to. I'm not saying that even one Alcoa player deserved to bump someone from the team, but there's not much room to criticize someone for stating his opinion with the amount of stats there to back him up.

Theres no stats backing up his opinion. Just what the "Team" scored. A quick google says Sankey had 887 rushing yards. That number may or may not be accurate. But if it is thats why he didnt make it.

Its a team game. Alcoa doesn't run up individual stats on teams, especially teams they are beating 49-0 at half. Sankey only played about 2.5 quarters in 12 games. Ask the teams that played against Alcoa what #15 did do them when he touched the ball either running or catching it.

If I'm not mistaken ,Alcoa had 5 or more guys score TDs in  ten different  games. Coach Rankin called off the dogs early in those games. He could have just kept feeding Sankey and running up the score but he didn't.

Loudon had 3 All State players on Offense and PC had 2. Sankey out scored them all in the semi and State championship games when Alcoa played those teams.  How is that for a stat? If one player outscores two teams with a total of 5 All State offensive players in the semis and state championship game he has a good case for making the All State team as well.

As a side note, the TSWA named their ALL State team. Tollett and Cox were added to the five that TNFCA named for Alcoa. Giving the Tornadoes a total of 7 on the team. Sankey was not on the TSWA All state team either,  however they only named 28 as opposed to the 39 named for the TNFCA.

I totally get what your saying. All state recognizes individual players. Being so good is a blessing and a curse. You dont see many 800 yard all state backs. Theres wing t teams where their 2nd or 3rd back gets that many yards. He may have the most potential he just didnt put up the numbers.

You make a good point. Hopefully he'll get recognized next year. O line probably won't be as good but the rest of the team is junior heavy.

    • 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
