It will make Peabody look even better if we do beat Milan as a 4A instead of a 3A. My opinion 

Be careful what you say about Milan  you might deemed a gossiper if your opinion isn’t favorable

I honestly dont care why you guys moved up. It was probably a combination of what you said and I said.   I came to a conclusion based on the evidence. So just because you have to much pride to admit Alcoa may have contributed to the decision I’m gossiping. 

Yeah they don’t need to act like they weren’t avoiding Alcoa because we know better. Don’t blame them though. Not same rules and uneven playing field.

Ok Pioneer. You and I know each other. I have a lot of respect for you and your family. So I will ask you the same thing I ask Tide21. What evidence to you have to support your arguement that Milan played up to avoid Alcoa?  I provided evidence where Diffee was quoted in the Milan paper for saying it was to have fewer non region games to schedule ( which is true if you look at the proposed regions at the time they were released), less travel by not having to go to Millington and Bolton, and bigger gates by having South Gibson, Crockett and Haywood versus Ripley, Bolton and Millington. Please tell me you have evidence other than the whole Milan is scared of the boogeyman theory??  Tide21 says his opinion was based on evidence but didn’t provide any. Can you??  I just don’t want to call a coaches word and integrity into question with no proof. I believe what he says. Just like I believe what Jacobs says about why they chose to play down in 1A. Someone please provide proof.

I know a big time alumni that told me personally. I trust him. Milan will never admit dodging an opponent, but it is true. If it will make you feel better, Peabody would do the same. Hard to beat a team that runs their school like a college and you can’t. Can we agree on that?? Milan would have minimum 2-3 more Gold Balls if it weren’t for Alcoa.

We can agree on that. For what it’s worth I would take the word of the coach over the word of an alum any day. Heck I talk to Diffee on a daily basis. Lol. But I get where you are coming from.

Here is where you contradict yourself. You mention look at Peabody’s schedule. Not wanting to have to pay Memphis teams and having fewer non region games to fill. I said literally the same thing two days ago and you said we moved to run from Alcoa. Yes you said you were sure there were other reasons but 95% of them were Alcoa. Truth be told schools during reclassification can declare to move up at any time. Jacobs and Diffee both waited to see the potential regions and then made a decision based on travel and money. None of it had to do with Playing lesser competition In Peabody’s case and running from Alcoa in Milan’s case. It’s just plain silly to think otherwise. 

Is Milan paying Manassas week 2?

Not sure if it is week 2 but yes we are playing them. Having to pay them half the gate, busing and feed the team just to fill out the schedule. Had we stayed in 3A we would have had to find another non region game on top of that.

Kinda Contradicting.

How?  I’ve said all along (and the coach has too) that we would rather not have to go to Memphis and play close games. This way we play 1 instead of 3. Seems like a no brained. I don’t know who your team is but would you rather go to Memphis 1 or 3 times?  Nothing contradictory at all.

The comment was one of the reasons Peabody goes down and Milan goes up was so they don’t have to pay a Memphis team yet one of those teams is playing a Memphis team. That’s contradicting.

You misunderstood. Peabody went down because they were tired of paying Memphis teams. Milan went up because they didn’t want to have to play Bolton in Millington in the region. It wasn’t about paying them. This way we only have to pay one Memphis team because we couldn’t fill out our schedule. Had we have stayed in 3A we would’ve had to of paid Manassas anyway played Bolton and Millington and still had to find another game.
