Father Knows Best

[BarneySox2007]

It's that time of the year where "Father Knows Best" and pulls little Johnny out of school for a bigger role at another place across town. 2024 should be a very interesting year with all the tranferring going on causing a domino effect at some places.

Manu to Alcoa and Young to Catholic. Many more . Greenback losing 5 players plus the 8th graders won't be playing at the high school anymore since they are playing for their junior high. That could desyroy their program.

Catholic cleaned house with 8th graders from Alcoa, Anderson County, Farragut darn near got the whole team swiped, Austin East, Fulton, South Doyle, Kingston, CAK, etc. I don’t know why more people aren’t talking about it. And then somehow, Bearden and West didn’t lose a single middle schooler, which I don’t know why people are talking about. However, Bearden and West couldn’t stop the Concord buildup, and a lot of players from both schools left for there. Middle schoolers & high schoolers, but anyway, back to Catholic. It’s crazy what they’re doing; I don’t know why more people aren’t talking about it. Real kids from Catholic whom have played all the way through middle school aren’t going to be able to continue through high school and are going to have to transfer elsewhere. But of course, I guess that’s what Catholics have been doing since Cade Brothers Day, they've just been napping for the past few years.

I know what your saying, that's why I started this thread because it's like nothing I've ever seen before. It's like Agent Dad on Steroids. I was surprised how many they got out of Alcoa which is in my home county. They got one from Maryville also. I'm just curious how the fox is getting into the hen house stealing so many of these kids that are very young with great athletic potential. Has someone created a new App for this.

Yep, and unfortunately, there’s always a loser. Of course, it’s always been Hardin Valley and Bearden, but that been stopped for the past few years at Bearden with the hiring of Josh Jones*, so now there needs to be a new school that will fill that role of Bearden, and unfortunately, it looks like it’s going to be Farragut. 

For example, Knoxville Catholic would take all the good players from Farragut x Maryville, Maryville X Farragut would then take from Hardin Valley. 

Webb would take from Alcoa and West, and Alcoa and West would take all the good players from Carter, Fulton, AE and Bearden. Etc., now we have to deal with Concord and a very underrated CAK on the rise, back from the dead, some would say.

The Wild West, that’s what the Knoxville High School football scene has become. Maybe it has always been that way, but since social media came along, it’s on steroids. Crazy times.

It's not just Knox County. It's spreading to the entire 5 Star Preps coverage area.

That’s true, the whole area has been engulfed.
