4A Wide Open?

Recommended Posts

Looking at the first few weeks of the season, is 4A as wide open as it has been in a few years. The teams to beat are still in NE TN until they are beaten, but Betsy had a close one tonight, Greeneville is still finding their way, and AC loses a tough one. I know it’s early but it does make for interesting talk. Tullahoma looks to be a force that will meet the best of the NE in the semis. Marshall County lost to them last week but one would think they will learn from that and only improve going forward  

Looking at the west, Springfield has yet to be tested but their offense is as good as I’ve seen in years. Hardin County and Haywood will be their in the west as well. Springfield will face a big test in two weeks as they travel to Marshall County. 

This year may prove to be as unpredictable and exciting as has been seen in 4A in a few years. I can’t wait to see it all unfold.

Elizabethton did not look like a Cookeville-bound team to me tonight, and after getting waxed by Science Hill tonight Greeneville looks even worse.    But of course it all depends on what the rest of the state has in 4A.     I would still rather see the gold come to NET but who knows....   plus you never know how the coronavirus is going to show up at the most inopportune time...

MC rebounded nicely tonight against Shelbyville 50-35. Game was closer than the score.

Anderson, Betsy & Greene will be around Come playoffs and I wouldn’t count out Sullivan South just yet either.  Out past Knoxville will be Springfield, Marshall County, Hardin County, and Tullahoma.  

Betsy’s going to be a challenge.    Greene will improve and be ready.  Anderson County’s wanting their shot.   Springfield seems to shine the most when it counts, Marshall County will improve as the season goes along.   But Tullahoma looks be making some noise.   Should be some great football ahead of us.

    • Personally I was pulling for Lee Hammonds to get another shot. He’s earned it! 
    • Tyler Williams was the logical choice to be named head football. He served as the Highlanders’ strength coach and offensive coordinator.
    • I went to practice yesterday and liked what I saw for the most part. Derek and crew have done a good job during the off-season. I was very impressed with the size of some of those boys on the offensive line. My only regret was one of the boys I was really pulling for to have a good year was dismissed from the team. I have to applaud the coaches for setting examples for the others, no one is bigger than the team. One other thing, I was hoping with that big rain we got this week some of that  yellow paint would dissolve but it didn't.  
    • Couple of thoughts: 1.  I just don't understand all the intricacies in TSSAA transfer rules anymore.    William Blount had a kid that played the final part of the basketball season with them this year,  that played at Hardin Valley last year, and played football for Bearden this year.  I say that to say, I know the coaches and the AD and the Principal at WB and I will never believe they would do something they knew was wrong.  They are men of character.  I BELIEVE the same thing about the coaches and administration at Maryville.  Call me gullible, but these are men and women of integrity in my experiences with them. 2.  Much like the transfer of the Clemmer kid a couple of years ago, with Smith, the football team is getting a huge boost, but the impact on the basketball team will be just as great or maybe even greater.  With Smith playing post, it frees the Sigmund kid who will be coming back from injury, to play more with his face to the basket.  The Rebels basketball squad in my mind, will be "the program" in East Tennessee next year.
    • Could not agree more. After this year, McKenzie's new coach will have their work cut out for them. Staying in 1A would definitely be a huge plus. Most years there is not much difference in the top 5- 1A and 2A teams across the state, but after the top 5 or so there is normally a huge drop off for 1A. Regular season region play is a lot easier for 1A in West TN  right now.
