There's not a better offensive mind in East Tennessee than is Caleb. What he did with no athletes, no numbers, and very little financical support at CCHS was admirable. His team always scored points. They simply, like a lot of schools, didn't have the numbers nor the quantity of athletes to be able to two platoon, and with todays fast offenses running 80-100 plays ever game, that's what it takes to be able to win on a big scale. Kids can't play every down on offense, defense, and special teams and not feel the effects.
This is a good hire for East, in my opinion. I believe you'll be surprised at how well you did when all is said and done.
I think DB is replacing a lot to make it to 7-3. All World Hicks graduated (He carried that team to 4 wins last year), Redwine, Bristol, Salyers, Starke, and now Browder is gone to Christ School.
I could see them going 6-4 but also could see them being 4-6 again
Hardin Valley, Tennessee High, Oak Ridge, Bearden, Farragut, Alcoa, and Science Hill will all be tough games for the Tribe
Are you insinuating some GB posters may be sandbagging? That a perennial football power with lots of returning players and some convenient transfers to fill in their holes may still be formidable in 2019?

A 2 piece helmet is illegal per the NFHS rules and illegal gear is a disqualification what I don't like is it cost a kid 2 more games for a ejection in baseball! Football it's a penalty, Basketball it a tech foul only baseball has this stupid rule
