Class 4A Region 5


BDP2003

Recommended Posts

We all know Pearl will most likely be the class of the region again! I’m interested to see what Camp and Marshall have returning. Montgomery Central and Whites Creek will compete for the bottom and I haven’t been impressed with GB the past few years. They look the part in warmups but just aren’t that good. Creek Wood  and WH will battle with Marshall  for 3-5. I noticed WH only plays 4 home games this season with road trips to Marshall and Upperman. Hope to hear from everyone! Football time is almost here.

PC will be smaller in some areas and have to replace most of the Oline and Dline. They also have to break in a New QB which will be interesting battle. Friday against White station will tell a lot.

SC loses #4 which is a huge lost but I heard the little brother can ball. They also added new coachs

MC lost a lot but they normally reload

WC will be breaking in a freshman at QB.  The kid can spin the ball and he has a freshman WR that already has a few offers BUT wc still doesn’t have a lot of linemen and lost some kids who transferred out this summer.

idk what to say about GB. 
…To sum it up think top 4 will be the same.

This region is really tough.  I’m excited to watch this season play out.  Talent level of pearl still just seems way above everyone else though.

I wasn’t on the train at first but seeing what PC did to white station even down to the JV mixed with some freshman. PC is locked and loaded.

Coach Brunetti & Co. will be among the favorites in 4A this year.  Pearl-Cohn always schedules tough and scrimmaging both White Station and Brentwood Academy followed by opening the season with MBA and CPA makes this year no different.  
 

The region is filled with good teams from top to bottom.  One could argue that both Marshall County and Station Camp were Top 6-8 teams in the state last year.

Definitely interested to see what Pearl puts together this year. Replacing a lot up front but absolutely have the speed and skill outside. Will be interested to see if the QB transfer can get them the ball quick, replacing the QB for the past few seasons will be tough. Station Camp defense is going to be very good. Returning all starters in the secondary. And the box is shaping up to be pretty good with the second Ellis brother and Crisp who started to pick up quite a few offers this summer including a PWO from Tennessee. Offense is pretty young across the board but got some coaching staff help including Jarod Neal who was the HC at Westview. I believe Pearl and SC will definitely be the 1 and 2 out of this region. Station Camp has a tough first two games against Beech and Gallatin. Should be good tests though in a top 5a and 6a team.

I’m really interested in that Station camp /Marshall game because if I remember right, Marshall had some suspended a players for that game last year and still pulled it out.

    • Yeah, JCM went from missing a field goal in the Quarterfinals to win it against Milan, to dropping 5th is nonsense. JCM will beat Union City, and I expect them to beat Peabody as well. Huntingdon, JCM, and Milan are the 3 playoff teams in that 2A region. Peabody/Union City will be the 4th. Union City won't have the speed to keep with up with JCM. Too much turnover going on at Peabody right now. Let's move to 1A: Hayden Williams has improved offenses each year from a scoring standpoint. In 2021, Bolivar averaged 12.5 points a game on offense, went up to 21.7 points in 2022, and then 33.5 points in 2023. Humboldt only scored 11.8 points per game in 2023, and that's with their big offensive lineman that's at whatever school he is at. In 2024, Humboldt scored 24.5 a game. When you looked at Humboldt's schedule, they only lost to Greenfield by 7, and beat Gleason by 2. With Williams getting a full offseason under his belt, have a better understanding of what his athletes can do. Won't shock me if they're able to score close to 32-35 points a game offense based on Williams' track record. I won't be surprised if Humboldt finishes 2nd in region, obviously they'll have to challenge Lake for that spot. Humboldt does need to solve things with their middle school program and make sure they get that in check. I'm curious to see what will happen because there might be some hope back in southwestern Gibson County. And if Humboldt is good, West Tennessee football is good.
    • Woah!  More TD passes than incomplete passes? Surely they won that game right? No? You lost to a freshman rb surrounded by other freshmen and sophomores so congratulations on that. Not to mention ya'll had your receiver healthy i been hearing about for 3 years. Nice of him to finally show up. Didnt make a difference though.  Guess that's why Bruceton decided not to renew the rivalry. Didn't want 8 in a row. Rough.  Wonder what the excuses will be this year when they're 1-4 and half the team quits...again. 
    • Glad to see Coach Roberts back coaching
    • Im Happy to answer. First, I’m not the least bit concerned with other sports. I’m concerned about the one I know and love. Theres not one ounce of me that cares, even the slightest, about what they do in golf, track, or any of the other individual sports. WE have to make sure THEY are doing right by OUR sport. Now then, a minority of people love the idea of going back to the true state championship? Why? And if you’re good with that, maybe we should go back to carry-format for consolations, eh? Most of the states that do a single state champion do so out of necessity of population. Only California, New Jersey, and Indiana are true wrestling states that could have multiple divisions but don’t. Here’s the list of states with only one state champion that I could find; California, New Jersey, Indiana, Delaware, Hawaii, Kentucky, Massachusetts, Mississippi, Rhode Island, and Vermont Aside from California, Jersey, and Indiana, point out which states would need multiple divisions. So we are really only talking about three states who consistently rank much higher than we do as a state. Here’s why one state champion would hurt wrestling in Tennessee - We. Are. Not. Those. States. I know, I know. Everyone here wants us to be. I remember the Cow Palace debate ad nauseam - “Iowa doesn’t have their state state championship in a cow palace, neither should we”. The answer is the same here. We aren’t those guys. Weve gotten much better. No one can say otherwise, but simply put, we NEED as many young men and women as possible to have exposure to and participate in the sport if we are to continue to grow and if you’re telling me that having Sam Everett School of Innovation in the same division as Baylor wouldn’t hurt participation in that sport, you’re wrong. Moreover, if you think it has anything to do with lil Johnny or lil Kelly not having the talent or haven’t worked enough, then you're as small minded as you sound and I pray that’s not the case. It’s opportunity. It’s big picture. Get your eyes off the trees and look at the forrest.  Small schools don’t have the talent pool to draw from that the larger schools have. That’s a fact. They also generally don’t have the exposure to the sport as the larger school, which means it’s harder to get kids out to participate. Period. So if having multiple divisions allows smaller schools the ability to hang something in their gym about having a state qualifier, medalist, or champion inspires another kid or two to come out and give it a try, then explain to me what the harm is. I’ll wait. You want to be in a position to one day be like California, Jersey, or Indiana, then we have to have the multiple divisions now to keep growing at the clip we’ve grown as a state. The more kids that wrestle, the better off we are. If that A kid that squeaks out a medal once or twice flips that into a college experience on any level, then returns home and gives back, Thats growing. That’s good for the sport. That same kid in a division with the wreckers from the top tier A, AA, and D2 schools wouldn’t have that opportunity   Save your “participation trophy” comments. That’s not what’s at play here   People aren’t dumb. While there are ABSOLUTELY single A kids that can compete with and have tremendous success in the AA level, I’d wager most understand the difference. Just the same as AA with D2, lather, rinse, repeat.
