On the 2021 thread I've spoken about Meigs a few times. We will have a senior loaded team with alot of the best players at their positions that have come through Meigs in a very long time. 

We lose 17, 28, 51, and 52 on defense. And on offense we lose 34, 51, 52, 57, and 60. There may be a few more but those guys were impact players. Meigs will be good again if we get some lineman to step up and try to replace 57 and 60. Easier said than done. Im curious to see who we put at RB this season. I know #5 wants it and he's a talented player but doesn't have the size to play rb full time. He's a great receiver though. Probably the best reciever we have at catching the pass on the run. Rb #23 Kraskous will be a Sohpomore next year. He's talented but I believe we need someone with a little more age and experience toting the rock imo. Im not a coach though so we will see. We won't be an easy out for anyone this upcoming season.

I believe you will be right behind Marion in 2021. They should have the horses to win big and possibly win the whole thing in 2A since the top two teams (Peabody and McKenzie) moved down.

I wont dispute  what you're saying about Marion. I did watch them in person at the Tyner game though so I know something of what talent they might have. If you read any of my preseason posts I sang the praises of our up and coming qb and how talented he was. I also said he would be fine replacing Swafford and he clearly was. I say that to say this. Meigs in 21 season will have athletes of our current qbs caliber all over the field. Lineman like #57 Malachai Hayden and #60 Hunter Brown don't come around often but if we replace them with anything close to what we had just in the other lineman we will be absolutely fine. The one thing I hoped to be able to do on coacht since I joined is build a reputation that would sway readers to believe what I say about Meigs to be the truth or at the very least maybe make people believe my opinions aren't just of a homer. I try to at the very least be honest . If I'm not believable now I probably never will be lol. That being said I think Meigs will do OK replacing what lineman we lost and linebackers. If #8 Ben Smith gets a chance at running back and manages to get just a tad more of field awareness and field vision he could possibly be one of the best runners we have seen. Ofcourse thats speculation but he is definitely the kind of athlete that could do it.

I agree Meigs is still the team to beat in the east just hope Marion can show up and give y’all a good game.

It will definitely be a good game man. We return probably 70% of the starters from the 20 team. Im only trying to say we have been really good at reloading year to year lately. We lost some great players no doubt. But we had great players in waiting too. Didn't mean to say anything to make your team less by any means.

The current QB isnt in the same league as Swafford was.  He is a good player but Swafford was an Elite player.  He carried the team on his shoulders.  He was the only weapon utilized on those teams.  People knew he was carrying it and still couldnt stop him.  #2 had lots of help in 2020 which took pressure off of him.  Not comparable.

My post said he was fine at replacing Swafford and I stand by it. He didn't have to be better than Swafford just assume the role and di what a qb should do and he did. I will say in 13 games we played I didn't see a better qb take the field on the opposing teams.

He stood out to me in the state. And looked real good against South Green

What did you think about our qb driggers ?  I’m just curious what an outsider looking in thinks.  I’m also curious as to why you think your team lost the championship game. 
 

message me if you want @Yeti I just want to talk football

    • Yea I agree I will say tho I was a big “ v “ fan if an  opening ever did happen I think it would’ve been good to see him have a shot coming from a power house like Oakland. I’m sure he’s learned a lot from Kevin.  I bet he would bring a really good offense scheme IMO But after all this I just dunno anymore.  Whatever happens with the rumors an such if it did come to and opening I think this messes it all up.  The board members dreams are slowly slipping away now. I haven’t lived there for awhile I just hear what I hear, but my question is would there be any good potential candidates?? That’s why I don’t understand why people want b s out so bad who else could do any better ?? IMO there’s nothing attractive about it? As I stated earlier I went to the last game last year and taking a leak in a porta Potty is pretty sad and still nothing being done they say .. 
    • I have a sophomore that can do 177 (preferred) or 192. Sent you an email.
    • speaking of board members how can a man get arrested 12 days ago and still be head coaching a team in TC school system? looks like your right about the tc board members. I bet it would be different if they had a kid on the team
