You just keep getting darker and darker 91 . We used to be able to cut up with you but you have let anger and resentment change you totally . Not everyone from Maryville and Alcoa hates you or your school . Actually no one I know does . I do miss the old 91 that had a sense of humor

I didn’t think they would win by that much. Congrats to McConnell for beating a team he rode till the talent was gone

Voting gets very political. Sometimes adults can act like children. I'll leave it at that.

Not looking so STUPID today am I? Tough schedule paid off last night for the Toppers. I knew if we didn't turn the ball over we could beat DB. Athlete for Athlete they cant match up!!!!! We still have to take care of business next week with a very dangerous Bearden team. Region 1 & 2 playoff teams are very equal except Maryville. I have enjoyed all the humor this week with all the DB fans believing they could play with Maryville. What a Joke.

That happens more often than not. Most of the high profile examples of schools forfeiting wins in recent memory have come after TSSAA initially clearing the player. Most of the time there's a "detail" left out of the original assessment that only comes to light when whomever has an agenda against the school chooses to bring it forward... usually beyond the point of no return for their season. This could be avoided with a standard transfer form containing ALL the parameters allowing the transfer to be eligible to compete, and either a statute of limitation for reporting, or a limitation of forfeitures. If there were a three game forfeiture limitation, this would have come to light much quicker. In my opinion it's not much better to hold back information in order to better your own situation than to play an ineligible player. Just another example of TSSAA being lazy concerning their duties. If fairness is their main objective, they should do more on the front end to protect the innocent players from suffering from the actions/decisions of a few.

Same account also accused more than 1 team of playing dirty. That account does a better job at firing up the opposing team than their coach would

Outstanding!

Hate it for the players. However, if you have to live within the bus routes, there is a lot of players in open zoned counties that could be ineligible. Also, like someone else said, some from Fayetteville said weeks ago that TSSAA investigated and cleared the player. If that's the case, the TSSAA has some explaining to do. What's the chance of an appeal?

So that region is not too strong (other than Alcoa), huh!

Playoff Nazi. No playoffs for you! Next!

I'm on vacation until Monday. I'll pick up your slack until then.

Nope. Using the existing (and half-full) structure at Eagleton Middle School... K-7 will be at the current Eagleton Elementary, 8-12 will be at EMS. Pretty much a done deal at this date.

Could it be....sure. But I'm guessing PC is just worried about who is next. Can't look ahead.

Might be too busy on the girls basketball message boards since they won’t have to worry about posting for football after this week.

Travel is the MAIN reason we dropped from 4a. Maplewood is paying the effects of this now.

No doubt!LOL

Heck you know I'm a former Greeneville player and a Devil through and through but I don't even know if I would classify Greeneville or Betsy to be true killers this year. Greeneville has the talent but make too many mistakes and play calling has been confusing at times to say the least. Betsy about lost to South last night who shouldn't have been on the field with them. I believe that the top of 3a and 4a would fair just fine with each other but over all outside of the top 10 in 3a it drops off quite a bit were 4a and 5a in my opinion just has more depth

We can watch it on Diamondclear

Bearden was 0-9 the last game of the year and William Blount somehow found a way to lose that game a few seasons ago with the same head coach you have now. Also got shutout last game of the season last year by a very very weak 4A school 27-0. WB seems to have some bad luck in the past with that last game for some reason. Hope they do well Friday Night, will be pulling for you.

Wether anyone wants to admit it or not, the weather was the deciding factor in that game last night. We are a passing team this year and anyone watching could see neither team had a chance at throwing in that monsoon last night. Not to mention we had a very hard time holding onto the ball when we are usually sure handed. With that being said, SD had a smart gameplan. Why not just snap the ball to 1 guy and let him run downhill for at minimum 3-4 yards a carry? And when you got a guy as good as Young, he’s gonna eventually pop a big one or two. It was the perfect storm, literally, for SD last night. If both teams play again, it WILL be a different story.

I agree but the puter don't take into account the mindset of the teenage boy lol

Good luck!! I hope those kids get a chance to finish what they started!

We got some heavy hitters in out district to now.

3a is stronger and have more athletes the 4a.

Appreciate it man, really hope we do as well. Hope Polk gets that turned around as well.

Let's get it!!!

Regular season doesnt matter anymore. Huntingdon is 0-0 and ready to try and go 5-0.

I have probably done this too at some point, but I am still always amazed when we mention the weather being a factor in a game.... as if it only rains on one team and not the other.

Yes a ridiculous number of penalties. But nobody can be surprised at this point. They'll have a ridiculous number of penalties next week and the week after that. Science Hill got 14 points last night that was the direct result of penalties. The rest was totally on the defensive backfield. It just amazes me that after all these years (30+) we can't figure out how to defend the pass. At this point I'd just put all the defensive backs on the line and have an all out blitz on every play. DB held Science Hill to 11 yards rushing last night and still lost. I don't think I've ever heard of that before. Don't even mention Alcoa or the playoffs.

That also means that if one moves to a new county that's open zoned, they can't choose their school, which defeats the purpose of open zones. Say if I moved to South Pitt...my kid couldn't attend Marion County if he desired... I just cant help but feel Fayetteville is getting a bad deal.

These kind of games are exciting. Marshall Co will be tough to beat imo

Yep! Bunch of cry babies if you ask me

No doubt!

IMO, 3A is stronger than 4A and 5A this year. I'd put Alcoa and Pearl Cohn against the best in 4A and 5A.

It was pouring rain the whole game. Sticking with the run is what you do in that situation. Especially when you have a back averaging 8 yards a carry like you guys have.

I like what coach Grabowski is doing at Basin. I hope that he stays and builds them back up.

Indy throws the ball well, a wet game was absolute worst case scenario for them.

Time to move to 4A after next season

There was a situation that made most folks in the stands laugh though, well two actually. I tell the one ... Germantown's RB broke a rare long run on our defense. Bryson Eason ran him down, and instead of tackling him, he just reached in and took the ball from him, just as pretty as you please, and started running the other way. The thievery was so smooth, the whole crowd was fooled as to what happened, but you could tell he was LOL as he was running down field . After he ran for about 50 yards, we all laughed in the stands I guess you had to be there. LOL!

You’re welcome

It was never even a game. Coalfield had very little positive yardage on offense. Qb play was terrible for them no run game to speak of. Os defense plays well and the offense was productive. Penalty were few for os and coalfield had big and dumb ones unsportsmanlike and personal foul. The game was not really ever close. Proud of the bobcats

What I'm hearing now (not confirmed by an official yet) is TSSAA had already reviewed and cleared the player in question. Twice?

Well Pep,what's your chances against Maryville,hahaha.The troll needs to do his homework.I had already got into my Devil account when I seen all this..

Just not fair lol

I like the way we seem to be clicking right now on defense. Need to bring the A game bc that offense is capable of scoring. Speed. Jacket offense seems to have turned a corner and it’s about time! BTW the game will start at 730 at CreekWood I think

Um.…..I'm not taking up for anybody but it was raining in Kingsport, not a monsoon by any stretch. And Science Hill was playing on the same field. Before the season started I said DB might win two games, so they were a lot better than I thought. But their also not as good as everybody else was thinking. Science Hill is not that good either. I said if DB runs into a team with a good offensive line and a good QB they would be in trouble. The only pass defense DB has is the pass rush. They can't cover receivers. Haven't been able to cover receivers for 30 years. DB has 11 penalties for 100 yards tonight. Three of those penalties accounted for 14 Science Hill points. DB is not a top 10 team. Next week won't be pretty.

I agree with @FightingBlue0 comer must’ve threw off big time

Understand no one at any of the Sumner County schools care for the practices of JP2... its not just me. I stand behind it being silly to leave schools that create atmospheres such as the one last night to go somewhere they will never experience that. If they go for non-football or athletic reasons that is completely different. Anyway, go Bucs!

There was a different play called then upperman called a timeout. There was a few blocks missed on the last play . I have watched the film twice today and Coach Webster but them in good position to win the game players have to execute. It was not the refs or coaches . I am proud of the team just as you are . We just need to come out Friday and win.

Just doing what I can for the good of the cause.
