Comical 

Comical is putting it lightly, this is the worst year for state awards I’ve ever seen, no way in he** these writers got out of their own areas to watch other games or even attempted to do some research. I remember when being all-state used to mean something because the writers did do their research and seemed to care about it and the kids. Gordonsville, Clay County, have 1 players combined, that’s pretty shady to me. those 2 teams were the last standing in the East with SP. Then you take the Auburn commitment from SP who made it and according to their fans wasn’t even one of their top players and all he wanted to do was fight, even got suspended for a game! Then two soph from SP don’t get me wrong they are very talented players but weren’t the best on the field from the games I watched of SP,  I saw lots of Juniors and Seniors who were better just on worse teams. Award the kids for their hard work and not the ones who benefits from what school they might be playing at the next level or what Letters are on their chest. I understand it’s always going to be biased, but at least get the right players from the right teams on there.

What made it comical was there an obvious snub or something?

Yes there were several. The thing about it the tswa used to b good at this stuff but the last several years has been a joke. They have their darlings and are very political. Embarrassing

Definitely understand that a lot of times name has more value than it should. But without a horse in the race it would be neat to see this thread try and build a better all state team.

I get it. You can’t please everyone and certain names are going to b left off but it is glaring the amount that has been listed that can’t come close to comparing to one’s left off. I admit I write sports for our hometown paper but not a member of the association as we are a very small town. Just like to see a non partial list

    • I remember very well watching things change in the late 80's and yes it's all schools. Most people that are in charge today have any idea because they were raised and taught under this social experiment so they don't have a clue. Anyone that does see the truth for what it is usually try and hide it by blending in so that the School Gestapo doesn't round them up and take them to the Fuhrer ( kindly putting it ). Yes it is all schools not just Maryville. This train ride is not headed in a good direction and if the public had seen a movie of what's happening now back in 1980 everyone would have been headed home afterwards to change underware.  
    • Hoping to make the playoffs.
    • You are so correct!  It’s really 99.9% of academia want to change to way that education is not only taught but the way it is viewed.  The pendulum has definitely swung as far to the left as possible and eventually will swing to the right much too far.  I have always  said that politics and one’s personal religious views need to stay out of education,  but for the last 40 years education has been running full throttle to what we have today.  If the social experiment that we are currently experiencing continues it is only a matter of time before the public school system in the USA completely collapses and all kids attend private schools or even worse don’t go to school.
    • He was a bruise but Aaron Dykes is HVA’s best RB ever.
    • I am talking about what they both did for their team. They both carried their team for four years while they were both there. I wasn’t really comparing them that would be unfair. Bishop is on a level of his own.
