Sequoyah SID

Does anyone know the start dates/schedules for these 2 tournaments?

This is just hearsay, but I was told #15 didn't play QB last week because of too many interceptions. I figured it was because Tellico's defense has been suspect defending the run.

We are looking into starting a middle school team at Sequoyah. It would be combining players from Vonore & Madisonville middle schools. What are some do's & don't's to starting a program? What conferences/leagues are around Monroe County that we might be able to join? Any input or suggestions would be much appreciated! please be serious and willing to give helpful information on your comments. We would very much want to get this program started next year if possible. Thanks in advance for any help!

Bobby White is the new head coach and Debi Tipton is the new principal. Coach White is 26 years old and in his first year ever as a head coach. He has been at Sequoyah for 4 years. Hired right out of college. Seems to be doing a good job so far. Scrimmage @ Gibbs on 31st. First real test with pads on. Summey was never in consideration for the principals position. He is enjoying retirement too much. Coach Satterfield put his confidence in coach White and thinks he will do a great job.

Vonore Middle School is looking for softball games for September. We have games scheduled on the 15, 16, and 29. You can contact Kevin Kiser, Athletic Director, at kkvol33@aol.com to schedule. This is a new young team and we realize we have started late, but we will take about anything as long as travel isn't too far. We also have a field, so we can schedule home and home. Thanks in advance!

Sequoyah fans, be sure to pick up your copy of the Maryville Daily Times Saturday morning. They have decided to try to sell more papers in Monroe County so they are extending their sports coverage to include Sequoyah this football season. If you get a chance, contact Leonard Butts, the sports editor at the Daily Times, by phone or e-mail to let him know you appreciate them for picking up Sequoyah. Looking forward to watching a good game tomorrow night, hope both teams play hard and go injury free. Dumdum, Sorry to hear about Brandon, that made a big hole to fill. Tell him I wish him the best and can't wait to see him back out there. I have said it before, and I will say it again, you have some fine young men and I know you are very proud of them.

Central should be strong again this year and Polk is always tough. Of course I am biased toward Sequoyah, but honestly, I think the Chiefs are closer to competing than some realize. Sweetwater still has quite a bit of talent returning, but we will have to wait and see what they do with a new coach when they get one. Meigs had a lot of issues to deal with last year, if they have worked through them they could return to their traditional toughness. Good luck to all the teams and I, for one, will be pulling for all the district teams in non-district action.

Glad to see Loudon back on the schedule. Interested in seeing Signal Mountain. New school that is rumored to be pulling some talent from South Pitt. If that's true it shouldn't take long to have a good program.

Your right and that goes with any program. The Mitchell kid you mentioned earlier might be Cody Mitchell. Don't know a whole lot about him but he is a big guy. He has a strong arm too. He pitched some in youth league. With his size, I believe he could be molded into a good lineman.

I agree, plus those flat passes work just as good as a running play to keep defenses honest. It can open up the deep ball also because enough of them and the DB's start taking hesitation steps in coverage that can allow a receiver to get past them. How would you defend against this kind of offense? Just my own personal guess, but I was thinking along the lines of a 4-4. That would give you linebackers inside to stop the dives and outside to try to control the sweeps and possibly gaurd against those flat passes.

I like the Single Wing myself. I know it is probably to easily defended in today's game, but I still love it.

Well, my implication was that coach Summey and coach Gregory had both told me that they seek the input of all assistants. That is why I implied that I knew because I believe what they said. I put a lot of stock into what both of these men told me and took it as fact. When I asked either one of them about things pertaining to the program, I took their word as fact. Not only had they told me that, but Jeff had told me that when he and I talked at a fall scrimmage. If he had thought back, he would have remembered us having that discussion. Funny that I brought that up, you know, your big about telling people to come talk to face to face or to call you. Jeff felt there was things I needed to hear from him, so he came and talked to me about them. Why haven't I heard from you besides on here? If I have done so much wrong that you have been so upset about, why haven't you talked to me about it? You have had the opportunity. I stood not 10 feet from you the whole G-P game. In fact, I think every time I have seen you, we have exchanged pleasantries without anything else being said. So, to use your words, if you have a problem with me call me or come see me, be glad to sit down and talk with you, but there will be no more of it on here.

Ok slobber, lets talk football. Just me and you right now. What is your favorite style of offense? Forget the ongoing discussion about the Wing-T and the Double Wing, out of all the offensive styles, which one is your favorite?

1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10.

Get over yourself. There was no recanting. I just meant that my first post on the two formations was not meant to support either side, just facts about the two formations. Man, this board has turned into nothing but personal attacks about what everyone says.
