Just read a great article on Tennessean.com concerning Coach Chad Watson from Gallatin Football. I personally have no connection to the program but this makes me want to donate!!!  Hope I am restating the facts correctly….  the send off gift for seniors this is year was picking out new suits.   ( which they will also wear to football banquet ). Seems the group went to a men’s shop recently to be make their own choice, be fitted and arrange the purchase.  Coach stated funds from gate revenue and other folks in the community are picking up the tab!! Watson stated while some go on to play college ball, most player's football careers end with the last high school game.  Fantastic send off for his seniors!! Class act!! Hats off to Joseph Spears for bringing us the article  and the folks at GHS should be so proud.  Go Green Wave!!

Oh come on   Mentioned the article cause I thought the idea was fantastic. Start another thread if you want to turn it into something it was not intended to start. Please, I ask Please. 

Some can't help themselves, they feel that they have to be heard at no expense. It was a awesome idea from Gallatin.

    • Agree 100 percent 
    • A lot of people don’t realize how valuable JMO was. QB, safety, punter and holder on pat’s. Kid did it all. I fully believe if he was healthy Dburg would have made it to the ship last year. 
    • If Dyersburg quarterback who is also starting safety hadn’t got hurt it would of another blowout 
    • For perspective the county school I’m associated and graduated from only has 7,600 people in the entire county with a median age of roughly 47. That’s not very many 14-18 year olds to choose from. I think the football team had 25-28 kids or around there.  On the other hand Shelby County has 916,000+ with a median age of 36. This isn’t just about Shelby county, but all the big ones with huge economic advantages!  An urban/rural split would benefit tons of smaller schools that have to compete with counties with 120x the amount of people. Especially the ones who can pick and choose their players from a pool like that!   I also agree with Pujo about charter and magnets and they will eventually be phased into the private divisions because it is obviously an advantage plus all the funding! Add that county schools can’t go recruit outside of their county like charters and magnets! 
    • They should be starting next week and go from there.  They never do Spring Practice in April
