Page wouldn't not have the same regular season record as west if the schedules were flipped. Now I will give Page credit for beating some good teams in the playoffs. It looks like West played nobody in the playoffs but that is only halfway true. Powell and WV are good teams West just made them look that bad. Just like West will make Page look bad.

West has over recruited and underachieved. Since Brown has gotten there they have done a good job of getting kids in but the fact that this is only going to be their 2nd championship should be considered underachieving. They have been LOADED for years on talent but it took too long to get over the hump. It will be forgotten as long as the staff stays and they are in 5A because they will continue this roll for the foreseeable future

There are over 15 (public) high schools in Knox County no one school can dominate year in and year out, thats why you have so many state champion year to year from the Knoxville area. So this “recruiting”you say is not accurate. Coach Brown had great teams At Morristown before he got to Knox West so he deserves his credit. And this years team isnt even “LOADED” but still managed to return to state.

HVA, Farragut, Bearden, Karns, West, SD, AE, Fulton, Central, Gibbs, Halls, Powell, & Carter are the only high schools listed on the KCS zoning map. Thats 13 by my count. He did have a couple good teams at mo west. This team isn't loaded like it was in the years past but still has plenty of talent. If you don't know that recruiting goes on at west and any decent knox county school you have your head in the sand or are ignorant. Heck every school in the state is recruiting.

Can you provide any proof of any of this or do you just "Know"?

You left out L&N Stem Academy (In the AE Zone) & Career Magnet Academy (In the Carter Zone) which are part of the Knox County School System (They don't have a zone but are marked on the KCS Zoning Map).

https://www.kgis.org/KGISMaps/map.htm?map=highSchools this is the proof for the zone map

 

As far as the recruiting. If I did have proof or if I didn't then I wouldn't post it here. I don't want to turn anyone in and I don't blame schools for trying to do it. Lane Kiffen said it best, "If you ain't cheating, you ain't trying". I just get tired of school A blaming schools B, C, Etc for why they don't have players when they just aren't as successful at recruiting. Everyone would do it if they could. Quit making that an excuse for being bad.

Zoom in on the Map you just sent and you will see L&M Stem (Inside the AE Zone) and Career Magnet Academy (Inside the Carter Zone) which are also part of the Knox County Public School System

It was SMU Coach Sonny Dykes that said, "If you ain't cheatin.....".  Joey Freshwater just repeated it.

Where's the proof of the recruiting?  There's a common belief that everyone does it, but I happen to think that's simply not true.

    • OK, well, that’s because two quarterbacks can’t start. That’s football 101. The main quarterback won the starting job, so he was on varsity, and the Seymour transfer did not win the starting job. He played some varsity. He was mainly junior varsity, and he balled out when healthy, so for the starting quarterback who’s been starting varsity since his freshman year, if you have any form of proof that he’s gotten worse, somehow, whether that means stats or whatnot, please feel free to share.
    • They’ve both gotten worse. I’ve seen enough games to know that. 
    • The only two transfers that Bearden has gotten that went on to play college football were a defensive back from Karnes, who transferred here way before the new coaching staff got here, and a running back from Carter, who went on to play at Maryville College. Both players received those offers while at Bearden, and both players got a diploma from Bearden High School. Therefore, they are Bearden kids, and you can’t do anything about that.   The transfer from Seymour didn’t win the job, what do you expect two quarterbacks to start at the same time? He played great on JV when he could stay healthy, and when he came in on varsity, he did great. The quarterback position is definitely going to be in good hands when the current starting quarterback leaves, but until then, they’re just going to be battling it out like every good quarterback competition does. The current starting quarterback has his flaws, and that is in the pass game, but what he doesn’t have flaws is running and scrambling, and if you go back and watch any game, which I’m sure you didn’t watch any, we used him very often, and when we needed a deep ball, we brought in the transfer from Seymour. The starting quarterback last year will be a senior this year, and the Seymour transfer will be a junior, so the Seymour transfer is definitely going to get his spotlight. He may even win the job this year. Football isn’t about who the newspaper thinks is the best kid. The best kid in the position will win the starting job, and I trust the coaching staff more than a newspaper or article to pick my starting QB.
    • I mean, we’ve only gotten two transfers that went on to play college football, one who went to UT Martin came his second semester junior year before the new coaching staff was here, and the other one went on to play at Maryville College, in which I don’t believe he had any interest prior to transferring.
    • An FYI: To see how an opponent has done against another opponent since 2001- go to the game by clicking on one of the teams. Click the G beside the game. For example, Milan: The info will show you the previous matchups and other info.
