POWELL FOOTBALL 2020


Recommended Posts

Panthers lost some talent from last year, but are still poised to make a deep run in 2020.  They still have talent all around the field, and probably one of the best young QB's, and WR core in all of TN.  Should make for an exciting season!  With all that said, 5A region 3 is a very tough region.  They will have there hands full with Oak Ridge, and West for sure!  What are your thoughts?

I think West and Oak Ridge at #1 and #2, Fulton at #3 and Powell at #4. Please remind me of the young WRs and the offers they have already. Thanks and best of luck to PHS.

Not sure why you took me saying one of the best young WR core in TN.  As me saying they have offers?  But since you asked......

Rising Sophomore #9 Redmond offer list:  LSU, TENNESSEE, FLORIDA, KENTUCKY, GEORGIA, TULANE, AND MORE.  Rising Sophomore #4 Foust has offer from Tulane.  

They also have many more rising Sophomores and Juniors that will have offers at end of the year.  Very talented at the skill position.

Loaded region this year. OR and West will both be tough to beat, and Fulton should be a lot better. Panthers have some tremendous returning talent at RB, WR, and in the secondary, plus they've got some key guys back on both the offensive and defensive lines. To me, the success of this team all depends on Potts at QB. If he's as good as advertised and can stay healthy, Powell could be poised to make another deep playoff run.

West is the pick to win the region with OR/Powell tied for second, and Fulton #4.

C/O 2023 Powell QB Jordyn Potts dominated this weekend at the Gunslinger Challenge.  Their was some good competition there as well.  There was a Kentucky commit their, both Oak Ridge QB, Chandler Wilson from Carter, and Stone Hatmaker from AC just to name a few.  Potts did his thing.  They say he is about 6ft tall now and 170lbs.  It will be fun to watch Powell this year.

I agree with this on Potts. Probably the most hyped QB around here in some time, for him I hope the expectations are limited for a Soph. He's been with Jones for sometime so he knows the system and should be able to disperse the ball around the field. He just needs to be a game manager and not Trusley who could extend the play with his legs.

Agree.  Potts can't be Trusley.  He needs to do what he does best and not try to do what he saw Trusley do.  

And it's time for those young and talented WRs to step up.  As talented as they are, they had way too many drops last year.  Time to prove those high star ratings and offers are legit.

Ya Potts, and the talented WR core have played together since 6th grade.  So the chemistry should be there for a good year.  Potts def. works well in the pocket and can go threw his progressions pretty quick.  Will be fun to watch.

As said in prior repy.  Potts and the sophomore WR core, have played together since 6th grade.  So the chemistry is there for sure!

Understand.  

Chemistry is great, but hands and feet make plays, not chemistry.

    • 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.
