Riverside vs ER State Championship Showdown

Atlee Pond had 5+ D1 kids on his roster and didn’t make it past the first round. Coach Brooks is obviously a good coach only in his second year. It’s not entirely his fault the team is undisciplined it reflects and the parents and the rest of the people who have had these kids their whole life. He also can’t help they came from a weak region this year. He might have scheduled some weak competition, but he knows that 1 injury and the season is derailed , so can you blame him? He will have the team prepared for Riverside and will shock everyone. 

ER 28-14

What 5+ players were D1 that played at the same time under Pond? Are you counting Taylor Groves and couple of these kids as freshman?

He had Taylor Groves, Drake Alsup, Shaun Groves, Zech Prince, and Cam Swift. 4/5 played D1 and Swift was supposed to until an ACL injury. Under Pond Prince had 700 yards under Brooks he had 2000

All I say is this because I dont want to bash players or change this thread too bad. But none of those guys have ever got any playing time (maybe a scrap time play) and half of em are on practice squads at FCS. Compared to 5 kids with actual SEC offers who will probably get serious reps at FCS schools or higher. And for Prince he got better no doubt lots of ppl do when you grow 3 inches and put on 15 lbs of muscle as a senior.

ER’s road end next week. They got ran over by a middle school team in the forth quarter last night and almost got beat. 
 

The riverside running back is more physical than groves and groves is a bit more elusive. The offense running groves over and over won’t work against Riverside. Fairly was overall better and faster than ER. 
 I’m curious if riverside is going to pound ER. If they do riverside wins

    • Best-of-three sectional series vs East Robertson at home starting Wednesday.  They put us out last year at this point.  Go Pirates!!
    • I don't believe they have anyone that is surbers caliber but a decent staff overall.
    • Richland plays at McKenzie on Wed.  Should be a good series.  Does Richland have good pitching?  
    • Congratulations to the Warrior baseball team winning the Region Championship.  Last night the football team beat Franklin Co 33-0 in their spring scrimmage. Warriors looked very good. Missing a few players who were playing baseball but still absolutely dominated. A lot of young ones got in halfway through the 3rd when the score reached 33-0. QB Tilton Pickett looked very sharp.  Sam Pickett is on another level this season. Seems to have put on 15 to 20 lbs in the off season and added a step as well. Transfer from last year Williamson caught numerous balls and is very elusive. Lots of athletes on this team. Defense was smothering and will only get better. The head coach from Sewanee was in attendance and offered 2 kids after the game. Could be a special year.
