As a native Southsider who attended H.S. in the late ’80s (I’m a 1990 graduate), seeing teams like Newnan and Griffin dominate really reminds me of the days when fans like me looked at our school’s football schedule and started sweating because, good as we were back then, we flat-out knew we had to play the AAAA football triumvirate of Newnan, Griffin and LaGrange. Talk about a hard row to hoe year in, year out. They were ALL on our schedule when AAAA was highest class. I think McIntosh was the new school in our region. Sheesh. :-)

If the Grangers fans were on here telling everyone to bring it, I’d seriously feel like it was 1987 all over again. I totally remember, back in the pre-internet / lame-o technology days, listening to my school’s games on local AM radio (you could barely hear it) when I didn’t have a ride to the stadium and PRAYING we would beat Newnan, Griffin or LaGrange. When we did, it was like “YES! YES! YES!” because you couldn’t hardly believe it had happened. Everybody respected those teams and knew how tough they were — heck, still ARE. Kids talked about them in the halls between classes, how we had to beat them or forget playoffs at all. Not much has changed over the years for those programs and that’s really saying something with so many schools having cropped up around the area, people moving, etc.

ETA: Reeze — Henry County? Middle Georgia? Hmmm… Me, I’d start the Middle Ga. line at Butts Co. but I can see where you’re coming from. Shoot, I keep telling my AJC colleagues that if we give it another 10 years we’ll consider Macon the farthest southern exurbs of the ATL. Don’t laugh. Sadly, it could happen. I have friends in places once considered “out from the city” like, say, Acworth and I remember when going to Lake Allatoona back in the ’70s was considered a daytrip from where we lived south of town because it was about a 40-mile drive.

Tell The Truth says…………..”As you remember, Northside’s only two state title have come in 2006 and 2007, but before then, they were known as chokers”………Truth I always wondered about this choking thing in respect to Northside’s playoff history…….I guess in order to choke , a team would have to be in a position to choke in 1999 against the eventual state champ Lowndes County , In 2000 and 2001 against Nationally ranked Parkview teams that destroyed nearly every Metro team in their path THAT Northside went toe to toe with ,In 2004 and 2005 against eventual Runner – up (2004) and state champ (2005)Statesboro and in 2008 against Camden……Northside with 4 Championships apperances this decade ,with 2 titles………Truth , can you really call it choking?…..How about back to back first round playoff losses?

Tell the Truth: Are you serious? Would you like a hankerchief or something? It seems as though you are about to get emotional and start crying. I have no intention of spending a great deal of time with Buck Godfrey or any other coach in the DeKalb area. I have a high school coach named Conrad Nix and like many, many other coaches who dedicate their lives to helping young men. I have no problem telling you that msny, msny coaches help young men.

What I can say about Buck Godfrey and SWD is this. I can name a number of coaches, including Conrad Nix, who would have won multiple state championships at Southwest DeKalb. Those coaches would have helped to develop young men and secure college scholarships. Conrad Nix’s son was the Recruiting Coordinator and Offensive Coordinator at Georgia Tech and served as the Offensive Coordinator at Miami. For a matter of fact, Patrick Nix recruited Reggie Ball (Stephenson alum) to Georgia Tech.

As for Stephenson, give me a break. This is the world of Stephenson

2008 (1st Round): Coffee 17, Stephenson 14 (Hallford Stadium, Clarkston, GA)…Coffee – 4th place in Region 1-AAAAA.
2007 (1st Round): East Coweta 17, Stephenson 14 (Sharpsburg, GA)…East Coweta – 2nd place in Region 4-AAAAA
2006 (Quarterfinals): Peachtree Ridge 12, Stephenson 9 (Hallford Stadium)…P-Rdige – 4th place in Region 7-AAAAA
2005 (Semifinals): Lowndes County 14, Stephenson 0 (Georgia Dome)
2004 (2nd Round): Lowndes County 43, Stephenson 7 (Martin Stadium, Valdosta, GA)…Lowndes 1st place in Region
2003 (Quarterfinals): Camden County 26, Stephenson 0 (Kingsland, GA)…Camden 1st place in Region 3-AAAAA
2002 (Quarterfinals): Camden County 27, Stephenson 20 (Hallford Stadium)…Camden County 1st place in Region
2001 (Quarterfinals): Valdosta 31, Stephenson 28 (Bazemore-Hyder, Valdosta, GA)…Valdosta – 1st Place in Region
2000 (1st Round): Collins Hill 20, Stephenson 0 (Hallford Stadium)…Collins Hill – 3rd place in Region

With the exception of the 2004 season when Stephenson lost to Lowndes County, the Jaguars have NEVER lost to a team that finished lower than the Jaguars in the playoffs. In other words, the Jags of Stephenson usually lose to teams that finish below them in their own region. To paint Stephenson as a program the strongly represents the talent that they bring to the field is disingenuous.

Buck Godfrey is not unique to any coach with the exception that he has done less with more repeatedly in the state playoffs. Most coaches help develop kids. I do not want to hear the Lifetime version of Southwest DeKalb choking away state titles. I can tell you that if Northside-Warner Robins has the opportunity to march to the Dome through the likes of Stephenson and MLK, it is going to be a glorious December in Warner Robins with our 10th and 11th graders. We have already played two of the strongest candidates for the Buck Godfrey Award (Doing Less With More) in Randy McPherson of Lowndes County and Dell McGee of Carver-Columbus.

Tell The Truth: I want to get back to real football. AAA is be very, very competitive. Is there anyone on this board who would care to tell be if either Peach County or Carver-Columbus are going to be competed against this week? I believe that both programs are going to make examples out of their competition. I feel bad for Cairo and Troup.

Has someone put SportsFan31313, Yo, and Slalom1 (the Charter Members of the Lowndes County Bandwagon Club of Georgia) on alert? The Vikings are officially on “Upset Alert” against Valdosta, who is in a “must-win” situation.

By the way Tell The Truth, I pray that you and all of DeKalb County know that like Lowndes County, Martin Luther King is officially on “Upset Alert” against Newton (Covington).

ENR: I don’t think I would use Patrick Nix as a shining example. Tech let him go to Miami & Miami soured on him real quick. Who would want to be known as the one who brought Reggie Ball to Tech? I think the UGA fans loved him more than the Tech fans. BTW, where is Patrick Nix now?
Tell The Truth: How about last year losing to Coffee @ Haliford. The same Coffee that was destroyed by Peachtree Ridge.
Unless Brookwood has patched up their leaky defense, they are going to have a tough time getting off the field against Grayson’s ball control attack. Grayson reminds me of Brookwood in the 90’s. Here we come, see if you can stop us. They run the ball & wear the opponents defense out. Yes, I remember Brookwood winning state at Bazemore-Hyder field in 1996. They ran all over Valdosta that night. I think it was Mark Townsend who ran for over 200 yds that night. I know that McEachern & North Gwinnett both put up 40+ points on Brookwood this year, but Grayson probably will not, due to their offense being more ball control.

Prediction for the Lowndes/Valdosta game.

With DaShay:
Valdosta – 13
Lowndes – 10

Without DaShay:
Valdosta – 0
Lowndes – 10
Hopefully the defense scores if this were the case.

EagleNationRising, If you have read any of my posts in the past you would know that I am a huge supporter of Northside. Like you, I believe that Coach Nix may quite possibly be the best to ever coach in the state of Georgia. In 2007, I was clear in stating that Northside was THE best team in the state. Being an Auburn fan, I am also a huge supporter of Patrick. As for Lowndes, take a look in the mirror. Both Lowndes and Northside share one common thread. At one time both schools were the step children of the top programs in their respective counties.(Warner Robins and Valdosta). Now both schools have risen to the top, and furthermore unlike Carver-Col have gotten the job done without busing kids from outside of their respective districts just because they can play football.(or listing their residence from an uncle or aunt who may live in the school district.) I am a fan of Lowndes. Also a fan of Northside. Sort of a conflict, huh? Guess so. But that is part of the beauty of GHS football. LaGrange always comes first and Newnan, my neighbor to the north second. I wish the best for Northside and frankly wish that Northside could win the BIG one in AAAAA before going back to AAAA.

AJC SPORTS, 1987, huh? You must be a graduate of Morrow High School. They had some great teams. Coach Theodocian(sp?) FINALLY won the big one in his final year. Morrow had some tough teams with some great players like Andre Hastings. Old Region 6AAAA was exactly as you described. Newnan, LaGrange, Griffin, Morrow, Fayette County, etc. Tough region and 2 state titles between 1987 and 1991. Brings back some great memories.

ENR….That was a great comment about Harrison. I agree with you, that Harrison should have beaten 0-4 KMHS two weeks ago. It has been great to be a Hoya fan over the years, and I must say that I have never seen a Harrison team play so poorly! Fumbles, missed tackles, and poor execution doomed the much better Hoya squad. Harrison seems to fall and rise to the occasion this year. I certainly hope they “RISE” tomorrow night. Thanks again for the good words about my Hoyas!

EagleNationRising,I really wish you were right about Lowndes being on “upset alert”. I am a diehard fan of Valdosta. Reality tells me that because of “KEY” injuries, especially DaShay March, we have no chance of this game being close at all. Mark it down. I know that tradition indicates this could be a close one, but I don’t think so this time. Vikings win this one in a big way. Nevertheless, go CATS!!!!!!!!!

wolverine2blazer be careful what you ask for. woodstock wont have enough to beat the #3 team from region 8. whether its parkview or south gwinnet. and if they do happen to win they have to go on the road to play NG or Ptree ridge who both have a recent habit of winning big against region 5 teams.

the almost any seed in that section of the bracket besides the 7AAAAA champ and 1AAAAA champ doesnt really have a good chance of going to the dome because they would have to beat the strong home teams of NG or PTR. or Nside

REEZE, In the 2008 game Northside vs. Lowndes, “Greg Reid was the biggest difference in the game.”(Todd Holcomb). I may have not gotten the quote exactly right, but pretty close. Camden County was absolutely worthy of being 2008 state champs. But as luck would have it, some times a team just plays a bad game. i.e. Newnan vs. Camden County in the semi-finals. As for the previous poster referring to Northside “choking” in the past, I must agree. I believe Northside DID in fact choke a couple of times in the past until they FINALLY got the monkey off their back. Same is true for Newnan. They “choked” against Camden County in 2008 and they still don’t have the monkey off their back. But they will. Maybe in 2009. You and I both agree that Newnan and Camden County play in weak regions. I would say that Camden County plays in the weakest AAAAA region in the state. Take away Camden County from the region and the rest of the teams would have difficulty making the play-offs in most any AAA region. So, what does a schedule really mean? I am not sure. But I know a great team when I see one. Newnan is strong.

You are correct MLK Lions Fan, MLK is finally a team. They were not one last year that is why they lost to Tift in the 1st round at home. They kept trying to force Mack Brown between the tackles with no success and did not make any offensive adjustments. They just crossed their fingers and hoped their Defense would save them.

This year, they have a totally different mindset. They are definitely playing TEAM ball which was evident in the first game against SWD. The SWD game plan was to shutdown Mack Brown which they did, but they forget about the rest of the team and paid the price. MLK is no longer one dimensional; they can pass or run out of multiple sets and will change when a particular scheme is not working.

The defense, I cannot say anything spectacular about them. They only held their last three opponents scoreless and have allowed their opponents to score a combined 21 points over five games. For those that are doing the math, that’s 4.2 points per game.
I don’t believe MLK has faced a balanced team this year and Newton is very balanced. It will be an interesting game.

Slalom, thanks for recounting 1983. Sometime great teams don’t win it all and that LaGrange team was great. The writer you refer to was Tommy Camp. I don’t think much of his reporting but I will send him an email to see if he will respond. I can’t imagine what he said .
Everyone seem to beating up on my Cougars and their weak schedule but what are we do? Struggle and barely get by or dominate and let everybody play and get valuable experience. We as fans know we have something special this year and can’t wait til the second season starts in November.

I got to tell you, as close as Grayson has won most of its games, I think Brookwood has an excellent chance of pulling off the upset. This would be the signature win of Mark Crews’ excellent coaching career at Brookwood.

As far as Grayson is concerned, I think a loss would actually be a good thing for them. It would give them a valuable wake-up call before the state playoffs, which is all that matters anyways.

Next week Stephenson and MLK play. We’ll be talking about it all week. To me, both teams are MYSTERY teams. Both teams haven’t really played any legit competition. They both could be awesome or terrible. We’ll get a little bit of an idea next week. Right now, if MLK and Stephenson were the Gwinnett regions, they would have 1-2 losses IMO.

Michael Carvell – I disagree. What 2 teams would they have lost to? I don’t know anything about Stephenson, but I do know about MLK. Since they are 5-0 I am not making excuses…they have not been at full strength since game 1. They beat a very talented SWD team, and other than North Cobb scoring on 2 gadget plays, they have beaten each team as they should have and not yielded any points to 3 totally inferior teams. I supposed that you think Grayson an NG would beat them…maybe maybe not, but I don’t see any other teams that might be a problem. Collins Hill is a 1 trick pony…Brookwood is so-so…Parkview is down…SG?…Norcross is down…man for man MLK can compete and/or win against all of these teams. MLK has as much size…more speed and excellent skill positions. Until they get to play one of those teams I don’t think you can make that claim IMO!

Sorry I left out PTR…so that makes 2 possible challenges in region 7 and 1 in region 8…I think you are giving the Gwinnett regions way to much respect…this year they are only 1 or 2 deep in either region and all the rest are mediocre I would give you 3 in region 7, but CH will probably lose to PTR and Norcross just because that is usually what happens when CH is having a good year…for the 1st time in a few years region 2 just might be competitive beyond the usual top 2…but once again it is all yet to be seen!

Slalom1: Yes, both Lowndes County and Northside were both the respective stepchildren and afterthoughts for both of our cities. For a matter of fact, Warner Robins leads the 51 game series 32-19. That may not seem so lopsided until you take a longer look. Northside has beaten Warner Robins 4 straight times and 10 out of 13 times. Prior to the 1996 season, Warner Robins led the series with Northside 29-9. That is domination. I still have a challenging time getting my arms around it. Warner Robins was such a dominant and complete program, it is hard to believe that Northside is actually better.

Truth be told, Slalom1, I am always nervous when Northside plays Warner Robins. A part of me is always that stepchild program. Warner Robins kids jokingly called us Nerdside because the school one State Litary, Forensics, and One Act all of the time. I am certain that there have to be some former Lowndes County players out there who feel the same. Coach Nix always allows me the opportunity to come back. The kids in Northside’s program as so confident. They remind of the nationally ranked teams my Northside teams faced from Warner Robins, Valdosta, and LaGrange. They have that confidence and a swagger so to speak. I always think back to that Northside 7, Warner Robins 6 game in 1989. Then the “demons” of being that stepchild program come back.

Michael, I think that you are hilarious. Everyone gets on the blog and dog on Stephenson and MLK. Gwinnett county four decent teams out of 15 in AAAAA. Grayson 8AAAAA and Collin hill, N Gwinnett, anf P ridge in 7AAAAA , which region would you place us in that we would lose in.Stephenson is 8-2 against gwinnett in the last 8 years. What make you think that would change. 2AAAAA gets no respect but 8AAAAA & 7AAAAA with the exception of Grayson and p ridge have not raised a whole lot of hell either. If you want to make it a date ask someone to promote a dekalb against gwinnett classic similiar to the corky kell and lets see if the mighty gwinnett schools will take the bait. My bet is they want because grayson, collins hill and p ridge graduates everyone this year and dont know what the team will look like next year. Dekalb vs Gwinnett and then we can settle all the talk.

Michael Carvell: What do you believe that Peachtree Ridge’s record would be in Region 1-AAAAA? I am just curious. You have thrown Stephenson and MLK under the 1-2 bus in Gwinnett. I believe that Northside-Warner Robins runs the table against Gwinnett County. Pick 7. Northside beats them every time with 10th graders. Let’s come to an agreement that someone had to call the Lowndes County dogs off of Peachtree Ridge. You guys just can not help yourself. You live to hype up these mediocre Gwinnett programs.

The last that I checked, Peachtree Ridge is in first place in their region. I can’t imagine that P-Ridge would be any better than 1-2 in Region 1-AAAAA…probably winless. Peachtree Ridge would not even make the playoffs out of Region 1-AAAAA. Lowndes County 51, Peachtree Ridge 17 was not an accident. The public schools in DeKalb County have historically faired well against Gwinnett County schools. Peachtree Ridge has outscored their weak Gwinnett competition 119-7 since getting their dignity taken away at Martin Stadium. If someone said that a team got “Peachtree Ridged” everyone on this board would know that means the team got violated. Peachtree Ridge had beomce a verb which means that the score has been run up on you.

At what point did these mediocre programs like Peachtree Ridge and North Gwinnett become big time in Georgia? I am a little lost Michael. Something tells me that Stephenson and MLK would violate programs from Gwinnett County. P-Ridge opened in 2003. That have had 3 different coaches in 7 seasons. Obviously, it is not the program that you guys at the AJC (and Rivals.com) hype it to be.

DecaturWhereItIsGreater: If there is a Gwinnett/DeKalb Classic, I am putting my money (not literally) behind DeKalb. Give me Tucker, Marist, Stephenson, MLK, and SWD against any 5 Gwinnett teams. You pick them. DeKalb schools would Peachtree Ridge the Gwinnett teams. I am certain that the Gwinnett parents would complain about the manner that their programs would be violated. Those guys from Gwinnett would wet their pants against the athletes from DeKalb County.

Why don’t DeKalb programs play the big time games anymore? I remember seeing a great Warner Robins versus Southwest DeKalb game. SWD went about 6 seasons where they played many of the top programs like Warner Robins, LaGrange, Clarke Central, Newnan, and Brookwood between 1990 and 1997. Since 1998, SWD has dodged top competition. If the top DeKalb County programs played top programs across the state, Michael Carvell would not be making wild statements about Stephenson and MLK going 1-2 against a group of subpar Gwinnett programs like Northview, North Forsyth, South Forsyth, Duluth, Mill Creek, Shiloh, Berkmar, Meadowcreek, etc. MICHAEL, are you really serious???

MLK is a different story i mean they at least can win some in the post season. i would say NG PTR and GRayson could beat ANY dekalb school. and then you would say the maybe games are with collins hill brookwood parkview norcross and south gwinnett.

Hey ENR, you admit that Valosta “should” have beaten Northside right?? Would you agree then, that Lowndes also “should” have beat Northside as well?? LOL… I put Grayson on upset alert on Monday Brookwood 27 Grayson 21. Does Grayson stream their games online?

I have a question though. What is really keeping Camden County from joining “what is now” 1-AAAAA? I don’t buy the whole talk of the burden of traveling because if schools can FLY cross country to play in Classics, a 2-4 hour chartered bus ride should be nothing to a PROGRAM…Thats just my thoughts on that!!

BulldawgBite – The way Carvell put it all the best teams in Gwinnett play in one region and that is not the case. There are 3 maybe 4 tough teams in Gwinnett…if you don’t think the size and speed of MLK and Stephenson would not be a problem…you are kidding yourself. The last time Stephenson played the mighty Parkview with Caleb King…they destroyed them…the physical play in that game by Stephenson demoralized Parkview…so don’t tell me that those Gwinnett teams want that 8 or 9 games a year….please! I am just sick of the biased opinions…look at more then the facilities and booster clubs…look at the players and their abilities…and then be objective. BTW I totally support a Gwinnett-Dekalb series or whatever…

Everybody else -one more thing…I like Grayson, but you guys act as if they have achieved more in short period of time then MLK…I would venture to say that MLK’s history being a newer school is equal or better…I know its better because they set the record for most wins by a school in the 1st 6 years or something like that…even down years end in the playoffs…so chew on that and stop HATING!!!!!! ESPNU 6pm 10/16…..RANK THAT!

Sgt Chris, I think it has to do alot more with geography than anything. Region 3 is the coast region and it makes sense to put Camden in that instead of Region 1 which is the lower I-75 region.

Sgt Chris,

The Region you play in is determined by GHSA not the coaches…. You question should be directed there.
