I’m talking about historical programs and yes Huntingdon has a very rich history

No doubt they have a good history. Historically speaking they shouldn't bump anyone down from this list of FIVE. A strong case could be made for them to be in a top 10 though. My criteria would be gold and silver trophies. Yours may be something else. We can agree to disagree if that is the case.

Maybe some day y’all can get a gold one. Lol!

You been under a rock the past 3 years?     I cant argue with 4 of the original 5 listed the order can be manipulated as to whoever is making their case and why but I cant put Henry Co. in the Top 5 though.. Not because they havn't had success but I look at a key word being "historical", compared to these other programs and the years they have been playing, the Patriots are just mere pups..... Peabody, 101 this year and Milan 100..... Not sure how long these others have been playing but Lake Co. may still be wet behind the ears compared to these others too.

Just an FYI, while Milan still leads the series against Peabody, by a very slim margin now, due to the last 8 years Peabody winning 6 of them, during one stretch of the series Peabody won 19 consecutive games over the Dawgs...

BUT, Can't argue with the championship history that Milan has...

This thread seems so offseason.... We are in the playoffs. We have like 8 months coming up to discuss trivial crap. come on now guys... 

It's Round 1 week with not many games that will be worth discussion in the area.... I think it's a good topic for this time of the year... Besides, some opinions may change depending on what happens in these playoffs you speak of.....  Just cause SGC isnt in it doesn't mean it isnt conversation worthy.... ;-)

You are correct and I didn’t say anything about playoffs. I just mentioned wins and championships. Those are important no matter how long ago.

I wouldn't put Peabody on a historical list really.   What they have done in the past 8-10 years has been phenomenal but historically they are an average team.

Trenton actually has a richer history in football than you might think.  Yes the 80s/90s/early 2000’s was a mediocre period for them.  But during the 40’s/50’s/60’s/70’s they were very successful.  Before the John Tucker years in Milan, Trenton had the far superior record of the two as well (obviously that changed up until the last 10 years). And adding what they have done lately, yes they should be on the list.

I think what Trenton has done the past 3 years definitely makes them deserving of a historical mention. I don’t see how anybody can argue that point.

Okay smart guy. Please tell exactly who is SC? 

If, you were having hard time picking up on it, my comments were meant with sarcasm and a joke. 

South Gibson obviously does not hold a candle historically to other school because it has only been a program for 11 season.....

True, but if you include Henry County High's predecessor, E.W. Grove High, I would definitely include the "Paris area" in the top 5.

But...I'm not gonna argue against excluding HCHS. There are other West TN programs that have been around much longer and done a lot more.

Yes sir we can agree to disagree.  I’m thinking well beyond just championships.

:ph34r: you must not have noticed the lol at the end. I was trying to make a funny. Even people living under a rock knows about Peabody’s historical run they’ve been on. I hope they get another Gold ball this year. I’ll get back under my rock now.

    • Well nothing new, the Mustangs are really talented again this coming season!  They very well could go undefeated in regular season.  We shall see what happens in postseason.  I think the path to state title game is a little clearer than years past.  I think the Stangs are going to be really good and I think the traditional teams around in 2A are not going to be as strong.  It should be a fun season!
    • I would not put too much stock into the UH over Eagleville. From what I understand they were pretty banged up in that tourney. Catcher was out, they were throwing pretty deep in their bullpen and a few key players were beat up in their infield. Sounds like they are pretty healthy heading into the district tournament. Look at their schedule, they played some really good teams.
