Your coach said in an interview earlier this season that the road trip for the Semi's this year makes it much tougher to get to the championship game.  No, it was not the reason that Elizabethton won, but it IS a factor, as you will see next Friday night.

We have to beat the Devils before we worry about next Friday night.

Looking at the 4 remaining teams on this side of the bracket, the enrollment numbers, the rosters from TSSAA, and using a 51% male to 49% female ratio these are the numbers I come up with.    G

I don't like that kind of behavior either, but the way Marshall County plays it would push the opposition to lose control.  They are as undisciplined a team as I have ever seen.  Case in point.  They

What do you expect a coach to say???  Kind of like saying the team your playing that week is much better than their 3-7 record.  It’s coach’s speak.  

Coach speak or not.  If you believe that putting a group of 14-18 year olds on buses, Driving them for 5 hours, the day after Thanksgiving, are not going to be at somewhat of a disadvantage vs. kids who are home you are either naive, or never played the game.  I am not saying Elizabethton will lose because of it, not at all, I am saying it makes the game tougher....of course.

It doesn’t help that’s for sure.

Maybe 8-10 players per 100 boys, but not per 100 students.  

 

From what I can tell they have just over 90.  That means they have 1 player out of every 13 kids which is right at 8 for every 100 and 16 for that 200 more than Tullahoma.  I would say that makes a big difference.  

Also it would be interesting to see were the numbers rank for the state champions in each class.  I would guess there are very few if any that have numbers in the lower half of their classifications.

Under the current classification format Elizabethton is a 3a school.  That changes next year however.

Greeneville has 1 out of every 7 males that play football

Elizabethton 1 out of 6

Tullahoma 1 out of 9

Nolensville 1 out of 8

These are the numbers that matter. If I had to guess, I would say the Alcoa and Maryville have similar or better ratios than Elizabethton. Tullahoma is the 2nd largest 4A team in this bracket and has the 2nd smallest football team.

Maybe that's what separates a championship team and a 3rd or 4th place team. At this level game day should be business as usual. If you're lost in the atmosphere of where you're at then you weren't ready.

      I agree with the Farragut and Bradley claim. Those will both be wins. Bearden like you say is depending on when you get them in comparison to when the wheels fall off.  As far as West goes I’m 50-50. They have been able to reload so far so until they show me they haven’t I can’t count them out.

      during the 2nd round of the playoffs last year against Milan, Gray partially tore his meniscus. He had a minor repair around Thanksgiving. Recovery time was minimal and he has been full force for baseball this season.

      $750,000 Lawsuit Files Against Warren County School District

      By thegreatwhite1 · Posted

      Playing high school sports is a privilege not a right.  The college did not have to rescind the scholarship.  Scholarship offers are pulled all the time for a number of reasons. That was 100% their choice.  A coach can keep, cut, or dismiss any player that they want to without reason anytime they want.  Is that the right way to run a program?? I don't think that it is, but these are the facts of the matter. This case has absolutely 0% chance of going in the plaintiff's favor. Futhermore, I'd imagine that these administrators and the coach are a part of some teaching or coaching organization that will cover at least 1 million dollars each in legal fees. Obviously the kid and her family feel like there were "damages" thus the lawsuit.  Unfortunately, the law is not on their side in this case.

      Maryville will recapture the loses from last year against West, Bradley and Farragut. The Bearden game will be the tough one but I look for the wheels to come off that ride somewhere down the road because of all the crap that goes on there. I know to many parents there and some of the things I've been told and some of the post a few of them have made on facebook. They all can't be liars.
