A family goes from the excitement of cheering at the thrilling Grundy County overtime win (36-35)against Sequatchie County to the devastating reality that their home and possessions were lost in a fire the same night to the gracious outpouring of help from friends and strangers in the last week.

 

Grundy County High School teacher and assistant baseball coach Brad Dees and his family are doing their best to live day to day in the aftermath of their home fire last Friday.

 

The family is living in a home rent free until they can get back on their feet, more than $3,000 has been raised through www.gofundme.com/DeesHouseFire and all parking money taken in at tonight's Boyd Buchanan at Notre Dame football game will also go to the family.

 

"We have been blessed and this is the least we can do to help a family in need," said Notre Dame football coach Charlie Fant.

 

Friday Football:  At halftime of tonight's Grundy County (2-1) at  Silverdale Baptist (2-1) game, the players from Silverdale will present $1,000 to the Dees family from the entire Silverdale Baptist Academy.

    • Has BA landed any cornfed cowboys to block up front?
    • Yea I agree I will say tho I was a big “ v “ fan if an  opening ever did happen I think it would’ve been good to see him have a shot coming from a power house like Oakland. I’m sure he’s learned a lot from Kevin.  I bet he would bring a really good offense scheme IMO But after all this I just dunno anymore.  Whatever happens with the rumors an such if it did come to and opening I think this messes it all up.  The board members dreams are slowly slipping away now. I haven’t lived there for awhile I just hear what I hear, but my question is would there be any good potential candidates?? That’s why I don’t understand why people want b s out so bad who else could do any better ?? IMO there’s nothing attractive about it? As I stated earlier I went to the last game last year and taking a leak in a porta Potty is pretty sad and still nothing being done they say .. 
    • I have a sophomore that can do 177 (preferred) or 192. Sent you an email.
    • speaking of board members how can a man get arrested 12 days ago and still be head coaching a team in TC school system? looks like your right about the tc board members. I bet it would be different if they had a kid on the team
