WEST TENNESSEE

And what team DO you play for?

[TheBoredGuy]

I think dude is from Christian Brothers. So that explains the "rural west TN" hostility

 

Milan has a really good team this year, probably the best in west TN outside metro Memphis. But I'd be highly surprised if they could beat CBHS.

Seeing how I am from "rural" West Tennessee, or the "boondocks" as asdfasdf called it, could someone inform me a little about Christian Brothers? Is this a private school or what class? I have seen Milan play a couple times this year, and they really impressed me. It would take a great team to put Milan away, the way they have everyone on their schedule so far. And how many highschools are there in Memphis?

[tenman]

CBHS is a private school in east Memphis. It is an all boys school and are listed at about 1500 students. They are very good. I have seen them play twice this year and their line is incredible. Their backs are very good also. Memphis has so many schools that the athletes are spread out. Memphis/metro could have 5 or 6 schools in the area that all the students for one school in rural west TN cover.

why would anyone want to goto a private school with 1499 other guys and no girls

[brothers15]

well smart one, the way they calculate enrollment, it's actually only 850 guys. The other half is an estimate if the school were to have girls. The reason that someone would want to go to an all-male private school is for the privelage to play for a team with tradition and talent. By the way, Christian Brothers is a IIAAA school for our uninformed brethren in the "boondocks."

Milan has played some good teams - Huntingdon, Central Merry, and Covington is up this week. Their region is usually a little stronger top-to-bottom, but Westview and Union City are both down this year. They have a legitamite shot at going to Murfreesboro this year.

 

However, I think they'd be hard-pressed to hang with the better Memphis teams like Germantown and CBHS. I wouldn't mind seeing more games played between rural west TN teams and Memphis metro teams in the future. I think it would make both sides better in the long run.

[duckman]

I agree with TheBoredGuy about Milan playing some pretty tough teams. I despise Milan year in and year out as much as anyone, but that comes from them having a good team year in and year out. I also agree with mg, I'd rather be in the "boondocks" at school with some females...

Yeah how about when little ole Camden put the whoopin on the #1 2a team in the state, Briarcrest. We were the fourth place team in our region that year and beat the number one team in the state, wow. I'll never forget that.
