West TN Rural Top 10 Week 9


Recommended Posts

Just a thought/question about strength of schedule.  Let’s say hypothetically you schedule a very talented team like idk Haywood and you go out and give your best but fall short say …… 48-0. Also you have a good team like UC on your schedule but again despite your best effort you lose by say ….. oh 48 (62-14). Should you really get much credit for that SOS when in those games that give you the “#1” SOS you absolutely stink and have no chance to win?  Just asking for a friend.

Lake co definately gets respect playing haywood, uc, even obion this year.  If lake is injury free i believe those games will help them in the playoffs.  I wouldn't recommend any 1a team scheduling haywood.  Brutal size and talent.  Haven't kept up with Lake co injuries.... anything serious ?  Depth always hurts small schools

I see what you are saying. The UC game was a complete debacle. If the two played again it would be a better game. By no means am I saying LC would win that game. No 1A or 2A team team would compete with Haywood County this year. They are just that good. LC is getting better every week. The SOS just means LC is playing really good teams. If let's say McKenzie played Haywood or Union City and lost big in my eyes it would not diminish them at all. Just means that they are willing to play really good teams.

^^^ that’s good! I didn’t know CoachT had this tool. I’ll be looking at this more. .. but teams still gotta line up 11 on 11 and go at it. That’s why football, esp. HS & younger, is so awesome to me, anything can happen, and DOES.  I LUV when underdogs win too.. except when they beat our Dresden Lions. Ouch when that happens!

    • Sorry Barn. I wasn’t specific enough. It seems I’m always protecting the principal at 825. My interactions with her have been extremely positive, but very limited. With all the other stories being told, I’m confident there are other sides I am not aware of. Regardless, there are lots of decent people earning good checks up there. Maybe too good, which explains why no one is willing to speak up. My beef is with the poor communication among the athletic programs and with the administration. Seven years ago the poor communication led to my son missing graduation due to a sporting event that was planned months before. I chalked it up to the system being totally shocked that the baseball team made it out of their district, and our then AD was a football coach. Maybe they were surprised and did not plan appropriately. That was more palatable than they just didn’t give a crap. Déjà vu, seven years later, same thing. Different administration, but same result.  Maybe in seven more years, it will actually be “about the kids”. They should do better. 
    • That's a fair line. But if it's not over, that's a big problem.
    • RR, you think that changes this year, or at least improves? I know they had a couple of talented young receivers last year that made some plays later in the year. Defensive back was a struggle against any team that was above average at throwing the ball.
    • You would think they got a bunch of interest
    • You would think with football just three months away more would be talking. There's only so much a person can say about someone allowing the field to get painted without asking their boss who would have said ((((((((  ALE NO ))))))))) or all the other BULLS#!T they've done as they lead Maryville High into the new age of WOKE in a conversative town. I'm ready for some football news without hearing something coming out of 825 that Power Munger has done to cap off the week.
