Looking forward to Bryson Rosser's second season at Central. His first brought us a playoff berth and even though we lost bad to West in the first round, we Bobcats took many positives from it. Central returns almost every starter on Offense, minus 2 OL and last yr's QB Austin Kirby who transferred to Grace Christian. On Defense, Central returns 7 starters and we are anticipating the arrival of a new DC. Former Tennessee secondary coach Larry Slade joins the staff bring MUCH needed teaching and experience to our team. Although we have a VERY tough schedule, we Central fans are very excited for the possibility of another playoff appearance and hopefully a deep run. GO BOBCATS!

Sorry for the late reply folks. Yes, he is Aaron Kirby's son. I'm not sure how he got eligible to play after starting every game the last 2 seasons for Central, but he is. Also, not sure if Aaron is coaching at GCA or not. Last I checked he wasn't listed as a coach on their team website, but it might not have been updated yet. And by the way endofbcs, This was my first time actually creating a post, so please give me a break.

From what I hear Grace didn't hire the dad to coach. The Kirby kid may have either moved or got a hardship.Sounds at though you guys lost a goodun.

Update. Last night, the Bobcats traveled  to Tennessee Tech and scrimmaged Columbia Central. Final Varsity score was Knox Central-35  Columbia Cent-14. Offense was firing on all cylinders and the defense forced Col Cent to 4 straight 3 and out's to start game. This upcoming week, Central plays Gibbs in the KOC jamboree at Central on thursday. Go Bobcats!

public to private quires you to move at least 30 miles without sitting out a year, kirby left central in the winter when daddy got let go, he "moved" to claiborne county & went to claiborne county high during the spring. Therefore "moving" back to knoxville was 30 miles from his last high school. That's how he is eligable to play now at Grace.......

    • Lee would have been a good choice, also.  I'm sure Benny was involved with the decision.  
    • Personally I was pulling for Lee Hammonds to get another shot. He’s earned it! 
    • Tyler Williams was the logical choice to be named head football. He served as the Highlanders’ strength coach and offensive coordinator.
    • I went to practice yesterday and liked what I saw for the most part. Derek and crew have done a good job during the off-season. I was very impressed with the size of some of those boys on the offensive line. My only regret was one of the boys I was really pulling for to have a good year was dismissed from the team. I have to applaud the coaches for setting examples for the others, no one is bigger than the team. One other thing, I was hoping with that big rain we got this week some of that  yellow paint would dissolve but it didn't.  
    • Couple of thoughts: 1.  I just don't understand all the intricacies in TSSAA transfer rules anymore.    William Blount had a kid that played the final part of the basketball season with them this year,  that played at Hardin Valley last year, and played football for Bearden this year.  I say that to say, I know the coaches and the AD and the Principal at WB and I will never believe they would do something they knew was wrong.  They are men of character.  I BELIEVE the same thing about the coaches and administration at Maryville.  Call me gullible, but these are men and women of integrity in my experiences with them. 2.  Much like the transfer of the Clemmer kid a couple of years ago, with Smith, the football team is getting a huge boost, but the impact on the basketball team will be just as great or maybe even greater.  With Smith playing post, it frees the Sigmund kid who will be coming back from injury, to play more with his face to the basket.  The Rebels basketball squad in my mind, will be "the program" in East Tennessee next year.
