Nashville's high school football scene is gearing up for an electrifying 2025 season, filled with challenging schedules, new coaching eras, and a plethora of talented players.
One of the most exciting developments is the commitment of Jared Curtis, the standout quarterback from Nashville Christian School in Tennessee. Curtis, ranked as the No. 4 quarterback in the Class of 2026 by High School Football America, has chosen to take his talents to the University of Georgia. This move highlights the impressive talent pool in Nashville and sets a high bar for the upcoming season[1].
On the field, several teams are facing some of the toughest schedules in the area. Christ Presbyterian Academy (CPA) tops the list with a slate that includes matches against formidable opponents. However, East Nashville, despite moving down from Class 3A to 2A, is not to be underestimated. They kick off their season with a road game against Class 6A Collierville, followed by a Metro Nashville battle with Antioch. Their schedule is peppered with games against teams from bigger classes, including Hillsboro and Beech, before a crucial season-finale against East Robertson that could decide the region title[3].
Montgomery Bell Academy (MBA) is also in for a significant year as they enter the first season under new coach Chris Chauvin. After back-to-back down years, MBA is looking to turn things around. Their schedule includes home games against Pearl-Cohn and Hamilton, followed by a road game at Franklin Road Academy (FRA). The Big Red will face tough region games, including matches against Christian Brothers and Knoxville Catholic, before concluding their season with a road game at Ensworth[3].
The 2025 season promises to be a thrilling ride, with new coaching eras and grueling schedules that will test the mettle of these high school teams. For East Nashville, the transition to Class 2A does not seem to have diminished their competitive spirit, as they prepare to face some of the toughest opponents in the state. Meanwhile, MBA's new era under Coach Chauvin brings a fresh wave of excitement and anticipation.
Stay tuned for what is shaping up to be an unforgettable year in Nashville high school football, filled with action, scores, and compelling stories from the local football scene[4][5].
