Let's just say that, again, they have embarrassed their school, their program, and their city with their behavior on the field and on social media the last 24 hours. Not sure I've ever seen a more classless program in all my years following TN high school baseball. The administration at HHS should look closely at how their baseball coaches, players, and parents reflect their school. Learn to lose with some humility, boys.

It's sad that so many East and Middle TN fans/parents want to bash West TN every chance they get. Some of the best baseball in the country is right here in TN and it isn't just the East and Middle TN that make that possible. I understand Houston showed their butt a little bit, but they are kids. They just had their seasons end in a game that had questionable umpiring, for both teams. Are the kids just supposed to stand there and take it? Be content? That's not going to happen. As for the coaches and parents there is no excuse to act crazy but I don't blame them for being a bit vocal. It's part of baseball. I have personally witnessed teams like Farragut, Riverdale, Blackman, Oakland, and Science Hill get mouthy and show a lack of class for a game. In the heat of the moment anything can happen that shouldn't be taken to heart. To get on here on several different threads so the whole world knows Houston was a sore loser in classless in itself. And your an adult right? No excuse. Let it go. They got punishment enough by getting beat.

You are a parent/coach? Maybe an ex-player? You are on here now doing it to them. They are mad that they lost, Farragut is too. And Houston wasn't 2nd best behind Farragut because Farragut wasn't the best team in the state. The best team in the state is HVA and they are the only ones that have a right to talk trash on here and get away with it. You are so high on Farragut and for good reason, year in and year out there are playing for a title but that comes with a target, that comes with hate, that comes with trash talk. Bartlett and Houston get it back in Memphis all the time. If you can't handle it, then find another team to follow. Bash their parents if you want, but the kids should be left alone cause in 4 months, this part will be forgotten by the kids. Like I said, Houston and Bartlett both work their tail off all year, just like Farragut does. They don't have the titles to show for it, but they both give Farragut a handful every time they play and Farragut has lost more than a few to West TN teams. I am just asking for a little respect and not to be stereotyped into what some parents are saying. Not every player, not every parent, not every coach are like that. And both programs have earned some respect whether you want to admit it or not. As part of Bartlett I apologize for anything that was out of line, but I don't think anyone went as far as egging cars or schools like Farragut has done.

You are stereotyping yourself in the other thread. Are you not?

    • Ouch! If he's in the scrap business maybe 
    • That's a nice story but has little to nothing to do with what we're talking about. 
    • The winds of change are blowing in Hartsville.     Will be an interesting follow.    Would go back to the 90s and turn black the clock!
    • Did he promise you a coordinator job or something if he ever got a head coaching job? He resigned? He was at the top of the dugout last night calling plays. I wonder if those 30+ parents would let him give their kids a ride. by the way the board meeting was last night and it was not mentioned. must have been at the work session earlier this week which is not public. must be trying to keep it quiet.  Since you know so much, how much is Robbie Atwood willing to pay Adam Cothron?  Didn't you slander Eden earlier on here? You also didn't know he was a faculty coach again so how much do you really know? Some people outside this county baffle me with their need to slander others.    
    • He resigned smh, and have you ever heard of charged but not convicted. Some people in this county baffle me with their need to slander others. Have you asked any of the 30+ parents that signed a petition to get him reinstated at the board meeting this week how they feel about this? Just let it play out, at the end of the day the only people that will bring TC back are the ones that know what its about at its core.    People hate losing and they aren't used to it at TC. I for 1, and I'm sure others too, understand having a dip in talent and not being able to compete for a state title every year. But in the past, TC teams have outworked more talented teams, they didn't continuously lose the turnover battle, they didn't commit 8+ penalties in several games each season, and I believe several of the folks in town that want Blake out feel as if he is neglecting the history of the program. This is from a source that used to be extremely close to the program (not me lol), Blake gets out of school midday and the players show up and there is no practice plan or itinerary.  I also understand those that are on team Blake, when he has loads of talent, he wins. He does know football and he is a tremendous DC, and if the rumors are true then he will do great things. As for the board member issue, it is what it is, everyone that's true to the county know that and nothing has changed. I agree though that they should strive to make the facilities as good as we can. And as far as potential candidates, I agree there is very few options. West, Vetetoe (yes I know), and couple others that could have some interest. Whatever happens is massive for the program during a pivotal time before the next big wave of stars make their way through.
