  1. That running back is no longer here. Losing over 20 seniors including our leading scorer is never easy. One good thing is that we got Blackman off the schedule and replaced them with Brainerd who only won 2 games last year. That along with Marion that is also a 2A team, gives us 2 easy wins. We should always be good enough to beat McMinn, Soddy, Walker Valley, and Lenoir City so we should have at least 6 wins with this schedule and be 2nd in the region. Pemberton will be a third year starter at QB and that experience always helps. The rest of the backfield will not have a lot of experience but should have some talent from the Jr. class. Remember, those are the kids that went undefeated at Rhea Middle and beat Baylor and Maryville. I think this could be a really good year for us.

  2. I don't think Walthall has officially signed yet... that will be next Wednesday I believe. At the same time Tommy Brackett will be signing with the Olympic Education Center at Northern Michigan.

  3. I think you misunderstand a big part of why people have a problem with this. If you are trying to put together a true team Tennessee, then it should be a true team Tennessee. The wrestleoff idea was a great idea and fair but not feasible. If you want the best that you can get in TN you go through the results and reach out to coaches and wrestlers. They will come. I can remember about 15 to 20 yrs ago coach Henry put an incredible team together of the best wrestlers in TN and I’m pretty sure they walked through the best of PA, MI, IL and OH down at camp Jordan. I know for a fact that he didn’t put any preference on his own kids because it was a who’s who of TN wrestling. Keller, Ward, Blackmon, Yost, Simpson’s, Dunning’s, K James, Cordell, D McKnight, Q Gibson, hvy from Greeneville, etc. I watched that team and it was incredible. It was put together by inviting the best kids that would come....no preferences. Kids love to be a part of things like this. This thing turned into a mess from the get go.

  4. I think it's going to really hurt both Morristown Schools and Jeff County, but also just about everyone else within 50 miles (Sevier Co., Cocke County, the Hawkins and Greene county schools, etc.). This school is going to be huge (1200 kids--a 5A school!) and have maybe the nicest facilities in the state, plus they'll be competing in D2 so they can openly recruit and offer financial aid. NET schools aren't used to dealing with that type of pressure from privates recruiting their athletes away.
