So I guess only “high schools” from Memphis can win state championship 

Schedule, and how you perform against like teams isn't a fool proof predictor, but it is something that gives you an inclination as to how to rank teams. 

If this thing is played out, forget BTW, Hampton will have to fight with everything they've got to keep up with Loretto.  Loretto hasn't lost to a single A team all year and have some great games against multiple good AAA teams.

This is pointless to go back and forth since we will not see the tournament played.... However, I am sure Hampton has a quality squad but they do not have even one big time win... Booker T beat a Whitehaven team that was "favored" to win the AAA gold ball and peaked in the national top 40 rankings. Hampton has nothing even close to that on their schedule and since this is a "who would win" we have to resort to who has the best schedule and quality wins...

I too doubt this tournament is played but if it was, Hampton would have their hands full with Loretto...Just like they did at the Arby's Classic vs Tabernacle Baptist from the Bahamas. Wins against top tier programs don't always mean so much in HS sports. I am not a fan of the SOS (Strength of Schedule) and have 1,000 examples as to why...Our trips to the boro in years past are examples as was our football runs as recently at 2016...It's all about match ups not who've you've played.

Records and who you’ve beat don’t mean a hoot.

    • Well, I’d hope the new coaching staff thinks they are all that because they can always walk around the school, anytime they want, thinking that, especially for what they’ve done for the student athletes and the players, putting more kids in college in his first season than the old coaching staff did in numerous years combined, but we will just sweep over that because I know you don’t like facts. But trust me, nobody wanted Mr. Big britches, made the star player switch to quarterback, which is ultimately the reason he ended up transferring to play the position. He loved, but unfortunately, had to be at another school because Mr. Big Britches doesn’t like when a teenager knows more than him, but can’t expect much coming from a guy who used all class throwing pencils up into the ceiling and making fun of football kids who were failing class right to their face, and in front of numerous students, even projecting on the board most of the time.
    • After that first paragraph, I can see why you’re a TA and not a teacher. Have you made the move from South Knoxville to Bearden yet?    Maybe he left because he is an actual teacher and coach, and didn’t want to be associated with a group of foul mouthed middle school coaches who like to pretend they’re big time. 
    • Yeah and the coach is gone. Whole bizarre situation here. We played them a couple of times at MTSU last few years. She was a player for sure. 
    • This whole situation is bonkers. You don’t just kick your star player off the team just because you heard them say the F word; the coach definitely had something against the player, or somebody definitely did. Also, nobody has brought up the idea that the school blackmailed the college to get the college to withdraw the scholarship offer, not to mention that the coach who kicked her off is no longer even with the program; they were fired. I think this is a pretty easy lawsuit. I don’t know if she should deserve that much money, but I think she should get enough money for a full-ride scholarship if she cannot get one after this situation.
    • Oh yeah, I’m sure you are different people just always on the same thread for some reason, always agreeing with each other, perhaps just a bunch of dorks who would like to ###### and moan about high school football coaches do a lot of other students, so you make a football team and get a yell at them. When they do something wrong, but I’m sure you don’t like that, do you?   and I’m sure I’m aware of where you get information. A teacher who was on the coaching staff but was fired after the new coaching and staff came in and realized he actually had to start taking his assistant job a little bit more seriously than just wanting to make a little extra cash on the side, hardly even showing up to most practices, should’ve left with his buddy to go to Farragut. I’m sure he could get him a defensive coaching job, but I doubt he will be there in three years. Looking at the way Farragut is currently going.
