It will be interesting to see if Alcoa can continue their dominance after this legendary coach is gone. I don’t think you’ll see much of a difference this year or even next but after that I think the sledding might get a little tougher but until that happens The Tornadoes are on top of 3A with no one else having a chance! 

Alcoa won't miss a beat.  Not one.

100% agree.  Nix has been running the strength program and D since 2004 and will just keep running the same program that is built (one he had a part in building).  They aren’t dropping off like some might wish to think

It will be interesting to see a true handcuff free Offense from OC Coach Sweetland. Especially in the passing routes since Rankin was not fond of throwing between the hash marks.

AND, to use a TE! Perfect timing with 6'3", 220 LB Freshman Eli Owens projecting to be one of the best TE to play at Alcoa.

    • 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 
    • It will be interesting to see if the Warren County School District allows this to go before a jury or they settle out of court before going to trial.  My guess is that this case never goes to trial.  If this goes before a jury, they could award even more than the $750K.  I was on a jury where they were asking for 185K and were awarded 1.2 million.  You never know what will happen in that jury room.
