9th is probably generous. I think we may be in the top 25 in 2A though.

Trying to be coy is not a good look for you.

You are happy with coming in 2nd two years in a row?  I’m not.  I’m proud, but hardly content.  Any successful organization (military, Fortune 500 company, sports team) looks back over a previous performance and studies what went right, what went wrong, and what was in our control and what was not.  This reflection must be conducted honestly and apolitically.  Check egos at the door.... Fail to do that and people die, companies fail, and someone else wins the championship (respectively).  

It was said to me recently that if your season ends in Cookeville, you had a great year.  My response was “Yes, unless you lost there when you could have won. “

In 2019, we should have won.  For 2020, we could have won.  

I didn’t say that.  But to imply there are issues with the coaching is stretching it.  Look around and you will know what I mean.

I've reached out some to see who was gonna tote the rock, seems there are alot of candidates for the role. More than I figured their would have been.

Got a buddy that follows Meigs closely.  From what he says Meigs will distribute the carries this year.  Of course Carroll getting 15 or so a game then  have Caywood. Ben Smith. Pendergrass and kasko.  All 4 very capable and experienced backs.More physical and punishing type backs.

All of those and maybe Justin Keys will also have some carries. My thoughts are Caywood would be better utilized as a reciever. He has ability, and speed but lacks size to be utilized as a back against good teams. Huckabey and Caywood are some of the best wide receivers to come through Meigs in a long time. Huckabey is the best wide reciever I've seen play in person the last 7 years with the exception of Holden Willis. And I do believe the two are at the very leastcomparable. If we utilize those recievers enough we should easily spread out some defenses this year making it easier for our run game.

Yes. From what I could tell Huckabey is a very good WR.  One of the Best I’ve heard.  Also the fact Meigs has a good Qb that can get him the ball makes this a weapon that a lot of Single A and double A teams don’t have. 

 Marion talking big down this way. Implying they will mop the floor with Meigs. Will be interesting to see how that goes down.

 I’m hoping my bunch can put up a good fight this year. But with a lame duck coach and average talent I don’t have high hopes. Concerns about players transferring here and there also.

We're all a little worried about Meigs for sure but if they're going to mop the floor with themselves we might as well not even show up.

You better be glad that game didn't happen. From the looks of the title game it would have been another loss for your boys.

So are you confirming the fact that Marion backed out of the game vs South Pitt?

I am confirming that the game was not played. I figure you would know since you hear all the talk in the valley

The first game of the season vs the last game of the season is a big difference.  

Oh it is?? What is the difference?
