Great points. And this doesn’t even include the impact of the Governor’s voucher program.

Don't get me started on that...

[QuickStrike]

Pearl Cohn Firebirds and Upperman.  

[CoachDamato]

Do not for get about the new addition at Anderson County the "Cancun Cannon."  Hoo-ah

[CherokeeTrail]

Pearl Cohn or Greeneville 

[noonesfool]

Who wins it I have know idea, but I believe Pearl Cohn should be favored.

[haweanbula]

Pearl Cohn favored.

Out of East Tennessee take your pick:

Greeneville, AC, Betsy, Upperman

I am not all in on Pearl Cohn this year. More likely to favor Upperman, AC, Betsy and Greenville;more than likely in that order. Based on AC 's new additions in the transfer portal, Compliments to CCHS.

AC won't win it this year if they only get players from CC. That isn't enough and they know it.

AC has another pretty challenging schedule. West Science Hill, Powell, Bearden and Clinton; not in that order. I can't say AC would not benefit from transfers. I think a commitment to play at AC would also be an offer to have a chance to start. And not sure but AC may have received the cream of the crop from CCHS and on top of AC's already potential starters could and actually should put them in the running for another state championship. Won't know how they work out until spring. And door still open for some gaps to be filled from any additional future transfers.

They have done well for last year and this year of scheduling a good non region slate. I wonder if they will benefit from it more this year.

this coming year should be interesting. There is alot of good teams returning a lot players. Upperman lost alot but is returning really good players. Macon is returning the borders twins so you have to feel they our going to be really good.

Both Upperman while Paulk and Chaffin are there, and Macon with the Border twins, will both be teams to watch in 4a. Key is do they have enough big boys up front to make it happen.

Expect Macon and Upperman to make noise in the East. Would not surprise me the least to see two matchups again next year. Upper Cumberland football is on the rise!

Remember this name from Upperman: Theo Brown. Around 6'4 200 pound athlete  at 2023 seasons end and he started to make waves. I see him being huge along with Fitz, Chaffin, Paul, Johnson. UHS will need to rebuild up front.

Same with Macon. Was small in the trenches abd was the difference vs UHS
