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 

 Hey man how it going? I believe your qb is pretty good. I dont believe from what I saw he is a dual threat qb, but he is an accurate passer and has a great touch on the ball. Considering his youth and how he played in our game you will have  great QB either next year or the year after. He did really good as a sophomore though.

To answer your other question the reason I believe we lost the state game is because your line was just much better than ours as a whole. We had 2 maybe 3 players that were maybe as good as most of the rest of your line on offense and defense. I believe we could easily match you in every position except your line. The first half we tried to run between the tackles and just like last year we weren't able to get it done. This year you had the same line on both sides of the ball pretty much so I'm not sure why we took that approach again. If we had started the game like we started the second half the game could have went either way I believe. At least that's my opinion anyhow. Hope that answered tour question sir. And I will gladly talk football with you anytime.

Yeah I think our qb is a great. Being that he is only a sophomore he has lots of time to grow. I think he may run more as he gets more experience. I was real surprised myself meigs didn’t try anything different than what was on tape. I’m not sure if the success you guys had in the second was due coach backing the corners off or just that it was better play calling.  I didn’t understand having yalls 2 best lineman on one side of the line but I’m not a coach either.

I'm no coach and I couldn't have done better myself. I just wish we had tried something different before we were down 21 points down going into the half.  The stat difference speaks for itself. We could definitely hold our own against you. Just not running right at those really good lineman you had. Im proud of what we accomplished and think we have the best coaches and players in 2A East TN. That said we will try again this coming year lol. I will say that I think you will miss those lineman alot more than you think you will. Its not often to have that many great players on one team. You were very fortunate.

Everyone always does. But if they are the same caliber of players no one will touch you next year. Thats what seperated you from the rest of 2A these last 2 years mostly.

They will be two are around 300 lbs with great footwork,also our best D lineman Mr Willfork will be back next year,missed most of this season,we will severely Miss's Vaughn and John's backing the Hogs up but Baskerville will be back and Sheppard will be a stud his senior year ! No one will ever convince me that linemen cannot be coached to be great in highschool,alot say natural talent is key but PHS and Meigs always have very well coached big nasties imo ! GL to y'all next year however I do t believe you will need any luck with what you return ! That QB is special !!

Appreciate it man,  lineman for Meigs seems to always be the big question. Our coach was a lineman for Auburn when they were good as far as I know. If anyone has something good to teach them its him.

Sounds a lot like the SP/Meigs game except we were on the wrong end of the stick. Peabody was 3-4 scores better than any other 1-2A team this season. They also would have been the second best team in 3A.

I will call it now. You will beat someone in Cookeville next year by 3-4 TDs. You have the second best program in 1-3A. It is what it is and what it is.. is impressive.

The Trenton mayoral election is over.  You need to wait 4 years to run.

    • Way late on this post, but I do believe that I want to at least weight in so to speak lol. I wrestled NAIA competed against some of the best wrestler over all a crossed the divisions and felt great about my college wrestling experience. I think people make the mistake in believe that wrestling some how gets easier as a sport at the smaller college divisions it doesn't the training is mostly the same. I have that on good authority from a coach who was a D1 all-American. it's more the commitment level of the competitors that is different. There is talented wrestlers that can go D1 at any level in the smaller division. sub in Sammy Shires for one he would have done fine on a DI team. He chose a work life ratio that suited him. It's not about talent it's commitment are you going to make training and studying the sport the center of your world cause that's what it takes: NO MATTER HOW TALATENTED BEFORE HAND YOU ARE.  If so then D1 is for you and striving for success at that level is for you like Mr. Palmer said it's what your willing to put in. Now coaches if you have a successful wrestler who fits that bill then by all means D1 is a great option they will see some success no matter how small, but if they are not that committed along with being talented and a killer and you know it then your doing them wrong.  You don't have to tell athletes that you don't think they are D1 tell them to keep their options open to take all their visits to consider all the divisions regardless of their goals. college recruiting visits have you most times wrestle against their current wrestlers coaches and athletes  will find out real quick it's not easy no matter where you go. That way when they make their decision it's a sound one that's based on well rounded experiences.     BobCorker, and oceansize42 I believe what you are thinking is correct but for different reasons. TN wrestler's have the talent... it's a commitment level change. TN wrestlers aren't used to having to put themselves through the level of commitment required and kills them on the D1 level.    WrestlingGod, I agree you should push kids to pursue their dreams, but not at the cost of common sense period... we have to much of that going around this country already. Dreams can turn to poison when these wrestler are not educated on what it truly takes. In TN  a kid who understands wrestling to a high level can be successful with small amounts of hard work. They think their definition of hard work is enough for D1 that is the mistake not the "talent/understanding".  Over-all though we do not celebrate NAIA,D2,D3, or Juco success in this state like other states do. GA/AL celebrates all it's college wrestlers success a crossed the  board no matter the division. Why? because it's hard... I have gone to all the divisions National championships let me tell you to be a all-American at any is impressive especially D2 or NAIA. those guys can scrap and not one of those AA's are an easy match. all of them were state placers or champs multiple times in their high school careers. does that at all sound easy to place at? TN does not give those guys enough credit or shout outs period. it's an over sight because of this D1 or it's less than meaningless   mentality on this site and in this state. GA/AL is better then us on the highest stage because they send guys to D2,NAIA,D3 ect. they come back understanding the sport better then their pervious coaches, and give back and that cycles to athletes readiness to go D1 with clearer understanding of what it takes to be competitive day 1 freshman year.             My post isn't to support one way or the other but to just consider that both sides have merit and that both work when the system in TN. by system I mean coaches are the better educated on preparing athletes for each level they want and should pursue.        
    • If you think McKenzie could've beat Riverside I have a bridge you might like to buy. 
    • Hate to hear Ricky is heading to the old folk's home!
    • By recruiting, I mean members of a coaching staff are talking to, meeting with, giving tours, to students, and their guardians, that are not zoned for their school.    there’s no way that many non Bearden kids just showed up all at once without being recruited. It can’t be a coincidence that all those kids also went through the middle school all star game your boss puts on every year. 
    • Not sure how I would put it as recruiting perhaps kids trying to better their career by going to a head coach and coaching staff with connections all over college football that gets them the opportunity to go play college football and be coached by a coach with a pretty good track record.
