I guess I should have clarified the last half of the game Oakland had rebounds 11 to 2 rebounds for Cookeville or that's what the stats had listed. As far as calls go Oakland had some garbage calls early on as well.... Hated to see Cookeville outed, but thats how it goes somebody was gona go home that night

It didn't help that they lost one of their best players early in the game to re-aggravating what looked like a previous injury. That said they played a good game , but Oakland played a whale of a game defensively and won the battle on the boards. That was truly the difference.

They did get rewarded.... They got the chance to play another game , they had another opportunity... Prime example here in RuCo girls games last night. Cookeville was like 26-4 on 10-0 and number 4 in the state on the season and lost to 18-11 or 7-1 Oakland and will be setting at home as did Lebanon 24-9 lose to 18-8 Blackman. You play that well in the season you get a chance to play for a championship. You gotta bring your best every game, or you get to go home and watch on tv.... Not everyone is gonna get a capri-sun ana trophy. Don't mean that in a sarcastic tone, I am reminded there are a lot of great player who never get the chance, just like life. Being good is only part of the formula for success.. so is being prepared and being lucky.

I would not be surprised to see some transfers that will add to the Blue Raider depth. That second year there will be a familiarity with the offense and I think you will see the packages open up a little bit , I look for a solid year and hope to see them in the mix of things down the stretch

So darn happy for ya'll

No disrespect but Williamson County was not nearly as competitive as they have been in years past. Houston is better than some folks think/ give them credit for but Bretwood was not the world beaters some thought either.

If he did take it at a million, he would be in the same shape Stockstill was in. POOR facilities, and poor fan support. It would be short lived for anyone until they step up and do something about their facilities. No recruit wants to go to a place where it is crap even with a great coach.

I don't think he would take it. He has what I believe is 2 more years to have his tenure in order to draw retirement from Tennessee Teachers assoc, and that would also allow him to coach his son's senior season. At that point I could see a bidding war in the private schools for him. He would maintain his retirement and benefits, plus get paid a ton to do nothing but coach.

You're forgetting the private schools

OOOOOhhh goshhh I thought they played football by divisions you know like 3A 4A 5A..6A...and so on ... I didn't realize they needed to do it by weight class........

After the game I tuned into the Houston Brentwood game... Houston is gonna be a monster.. they are fast fast and big as well... should be a great match up.

Same Coach is still there... a lot of people didn't don't like him because he is not running his programs the same way every other program in the state does. Don't like the go for it on 4th and onside kicks....Can't argue with stats and numbers/odds... He did get rid of nearly all the staff at the high school level, which some folks didn't like. They hired some back this year.... He's not do it the way everyon else does it kinda coach... I have had the opportunity to get to know him a little better than some folks and he is a pretty good dude.

...Uhhhh.... no he didn't they are still there... he left because Cleveland doubled his pay... and Blackman would not budge on what they were paying.....

Same to you as well... hope you and all the fam had a great Thanksgiving...
