Is RUCO football overrated?


Recommended Posts

Back when it was 7AAA there were years where all of those teams at one point or another was making deep runs. Now that all of that talent is mainly going to one school in particular, you see how unbeatable they look in 6A ball. That is what I was telling folks 10 years ago when the select  7AAA team would go play Maryville every year and lose a close matchup in the Semis. The talent was being divided up way more in the Boro across that many schools vs what was getting divided up in Maryville. 

Smyrna, Riverdale, Oakland, Blackman and Siegel all had some really good years at one point or another back then.

Always hearing the “SEC” of HS football. But I guess they are…. Oakland is AL/GA then everyone else.

Also just seen your "slight" at the SEC there at the end. Every Power 5 college conference has good & bad teams. SEC just has more good teams, and less bad teams than whatever your favorite conference is. Deal with it.

There are Eight 6A schools in Rutherford County. Let's hypothetically put one in each of the state's 8 regions. How many would win or finish runner's up in that region? I think RuCo can hold it's own.

Any given year, any given team.  1st or 2nd every year in every region…no.  But they can hold their own.

    • Hmmmmm……doe dee doe doe….i drove the lawnmower down to practice today…….hmmmm…… we got some new faces………. One can run faster than my lawnmower in fifth gear…… a few will be disappointed come November that they jumped ship and went down to that sewage facility……. You can bet the lawnmower on that. 
    • I don't know what's going on in the town of McMinnville, but I've read this and it's disturbing.  I'm a "player" person, and I want what's best for the player. If a player gets cut off the team because she said the "F word" then good grief. I mean, come on guys. I wish there was a way for the player to transfer to a different program and just play ball. There are a lot of athletes that are stuck because they're in crappy situations regarding their team/coach. This is player just happens to be one them.
    • Won't happen. College coaches will back the coach every time and it cost this young lady her senior season. Looks like the player may be right on this one. School let her  go after one season. This stuff happens more than you think. 
    • “No college is going to offer a scholarship to a player that is kicked off of the team.” For language? I’m not seeing that as a dealbreaker. 
    • Why did the coach get rehired after she was let go as an assistant by the former Warren County coach and the current AD?? Is that accurate?? I am very familiar with situations like this. Suprised lawsuits haven't happend before. If the coach unfairly let the player go, I think she has a shot because it cost her a scholarship. No college is going to offer a scholarship to a player that is kicked off of the team. Not going to happen. There are bad hires like this a bunch and kids are treated unfairly by coaches that can't coach a lick and have super long ropes somehow. Amazing how some of these coaches get hired and keep their job.
