NCS peaking at the right time.

Maybe but I don't think it will be nearly enough to topple DA. The most recent game you can really base any opinion off of is JCS and NCS gave up 400 yards passing in an 11 pt victory. Quinn and his QB will eat that NCS D alive IMO. May not be a 35-0 running clock like earlier in the season but I still see a fairly non-competitive fight put up by NCS.

How do they match up with Kings Academy? Kings is huge (250 and 350 lb linemen) on the OL/DL and has speed all over the field. They have had catastrophic turnovers in every big game though. Tell me about  NCS.

Size wise I feel It a wash. NCS has big boys. What is helping them is that they have enough to keep 2 or 3 off the field and play one side of the ball. But they do bring them all in if needed. Interested to see how this one goes. I know kings has some D1 boys so it should be a good game. When NCS smells blood though watch out.  It turns into a frenzy then.

Seeing a 6’7” 350 lb high school lineman is not something you see every day. We have three kids 270+ and another few fr 225 -240. Kings had size and speed everywhere though. Against us and FCS they just had game changing turnovers though. If the don’t turn it over and get some breaks they can compete with anyone IMO.

I can Understand that. And if I were In your shows I would Feel that way. I am Just giving my opinion of what I have Seen. I am Sure also your 6’7” kid has not had any high school kids willing to come right at him. And these boys will. I remember A lineman camp that Trey smith was at going into his senior year in high school. The kid was dominant. But was never challenged. Until he went head to head with a junior named Emmit Gooden. He was not scared and went right at Trey and whipped his tail. So my point is that it will good to see your guys go against some boys that will not back down just because they are big.

    • 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.
