Not much to really say, i am on here cuz the season is over and i can finally talk( no need to talk during the season, words mean nothing) but yes Riverdale deserves everything they are getting, from a praise standpoint.  As of kicking in college, things are in the talking stages right now with a few schools but I am not sure which direction i am headed.

Best of luck to you. There's no doubt you'll play somewhere if that's what you decide to do. You really made it tough on teams making them start from the 20 every single time, and hit some clutch kicks. Good luck man

CALL4BRUINS, very classy man. I'd like to just add to your point about clutch kicks...

 

1) 55 yard FG vs Clarksville 2004 Playoffs- ended up being the difference in the game

 

2) OT game winner vs Brentwood 2003 Regular Season- 'nuff said.

 

3) Game-tying FG vs Hendersonville 2003 Playoffs- without this, Franklin wouldn't have forced OT last year... can't remember the distance on it, but it wasn't a chip shot if I recall correctly

 

4) 3 of 3 vs Germantown 2004 Playoffs- kept Franklin in the game until the offense really got going

 

There are several others. Some GOOD college team is going to get a guy who is nearly perfect under pressure.

 

region4fan, as soon as I can access my e-mail again, I'll post what I sent in.

Appreciate it rebel27, when you say class, it reminds me of this Franklin football team. The "Rebels" cheer ranks up there with the Centennial cheers as far as being abnoxious for the other team to listen to, but these players are extremely classy(not saying the cheers aren't) I announced the games for Brentwood the past 2 years and went down on the field to talk to the players afterward, and this year after Franklin knocked us out, I talked to several of those guys. Unlike the Centennial-Brentwood and Ravenwood-Brentwood rivalries, there is more respect in the Franklin-Brentwod one. There is less jawing after plays, just more sportsmanship in general. I can't say that I pulled for Franklin at state because of our rivalry, but I respect them more than any team Brentwood plays. I admire class, and those players show it. I hope people can say the same when they come across Brentwood players.

    • It is what it is. Sorry DFL.
    • One of the biggest loosing teams in Mid-State are the Macon County Tigerettes. I have noticed that the roster is smaller than in the years past. All the senior's have quit. We have a great group of Jr High players coming up. I sure hope they don't loose them, like they have lost so many others this year. With this young group of girls coming up, a weaker district, they should have no problem going to State. 
    • It was updated this season, because I did it.  Linder is the school's all-time leading rusher at 5,156 yards with 2,436 of those coming in 2014. 
    • Oh, I’m sure you did. Maybe you heard just a rumor, but considering we have a football practice field and a soccer field that’s frequently used for lacrosse games and practices, I highly doubt it. Let me change that. I know for a fact that didn’t happen.   Glad you finally stopped attacking a bunch of high school students, but still obsessed with the coaching staff for some unknown reason, even though you could name more than three (at most) coaches without looking it up. But now come up with something else.
    • You really mean the Price twin boys and Lyin Larry.
