De La Salle won 151 games in a row from 1992-2004, 7 State Titles and 7 mythical National Championships. They made a movie about how "devastated" the town was when they finally lost a game to another national power up in Seattle, WA. They're currently playing in the State title game right now.
They have fallen on hard times since their legendary coach and some of his long time staff have left. They haven’t won a state title since 2015, and that includes dropping down from the toughest state playoff division in 2019.

That explains a lot.
I played ball in Alabama back when 6A was the largest classification. Most of the teams we played had advanced to the spread, fast paced, throw the ball offense you see a lot today.
But once a year or so, we’d play a school that still ran the wing T. It was absolute hell trying to defend against it. Not only because we weren’t used to the style, but that offense was innately more physical than everyone else we played against.
I still contend that the triple option or wing t ran by a team with Alabama or Georgia’s talent (or really any decent SEC team) would annihilate everyone they played.

2nd best back is a freshman. My daughter graduated from Fyffe, son Plainview, their lil sister is a freshman cheerleader this year. This 2a team has taken out bigger schools & by a large margin. Pisgah was really good this year also. Blew out my old school North Jackson.

Fyffe regularly recruits kids to come there on the down low. This has been known for awhile.

East Tennessee powerhouse Alcoa just won its 9th straight 3A championship last weekend.

Who isn’t these days? But they have to fit into the system, Benefield isn’t going to change what he does for anyone.

There’s gotta be some type of built in advantage to dominate that much. Somebody give us the rest of the story.
Long running rumor is that they hold their kids back
19 y/o athletes would represent a pretty good advantage for small classification ball.

Losing to the likes of Bishop Gorman Mater Dei and St John Bosco is hardly hard times

They run that offense with absolute precision and perfection and they knock your jock off on defense. And they have a stupendous weight program for a school that size.
Sounds like John Curtis.
I would bet they get a lot of hold backs/19 year old seniors. That’s usually what you get with the whole community involved, and starting in the program at 5 years old.
