  1. I remember Dave Brown flying in the game ball when Peabody opened up their new stadium against Huntingdon. Peabody should have known better than to open against the Mustangs!

  2. There's a super legitimate chance either Peabody or McKenzie will have to play 4 games, back to back to back to back in a 10 hour time frame. How absolutely STUPID are the people running this show? I thought "pLaYeR sAfTeY" was a point of emphasis??

  3. Bad enough that a team gets to host their own state tournament but they shouldn't have walk up music & strikeout sound effects unless they do it for all the teams..Should be ran as a neutral site.

  4. No offense but going to the Governor wouldn't have stopped it when no one knew for a fact Smith was pitching until they arrived in Johnson City and started warming up (Side note is Smith use to play at Happy Valley in 2019 before moving to Knoxville and played travel ball with a lot of the kids at Science Hill his entire life). Do you believe GC's Coach would have just told his team to walk off the fields in substate and take an L that way? Science Hill had beaten Smith earlier in the year and was his only loss so far. I agree the TSSAA is wrong and the Powell Coach and Athletic director are crooked when there is video evidence of the pitch count. Thats why i feel like the TSSAA is a bunch of crooks and another organization needs to take its place that actually cares about their own rules, enforcing them, and have the players best interest at heart (TSSAA does none of the three and all about the money).

  5. I'm honestly shocked fewer people are publicly shaming Powell's coach for being an absolute sleezbag. This dude knew his kid threw over 105 pitches. He KNEW it. And once he figured he could actually get away with it, he even altered the game film to fit the story. Guy has absolutely no integrity, and I wouldn't want my child being led by a man with such little character.

  6. Yeah the Bearden coach just got beat and eliminated last thing on his mind is how many pitches the guy threw especially if it could throw a bunch in his game. Sad they make that gospel when there is video evidence that says otherwise. Sad deal here. If I am Science Hill I would definitely be mad and look at options above TSSAA if there are any.

  7. Especially a game of this magnitude, where a team advances to the state tournament. The problem i have with it, the situation with Collierville came up after they lost a game. And the issue was brought up over a JV pitcher, who played a small part in beating them. The Science Hill issue is way bigger because it was brought to light days leading up to the Powell game. It was almost like everyone in east TN knew Powell was going to throw the kid. So Powell had time to cover their tracks. TSSAA did nothing? Houston plays Powell tomorrow, at least they won't have to face this stud, right? His 4th day of rest is Tuesday. How many pitches did he throw against SH?

  8. The way I see it, is if TSSAA charges it's member schools a fee to join the association and is allowed to adopt their own rules to govern, they should take responsibility to investigate potential violations. Not saying that they have a task force to review every game, but if accusations are delivered to them with a reasonable explanation of where/how to discover the truth, the situation should be reviewed and addressed. It seems as the only infractions or violations that ever draw a reprimand are hand delivered with all the evidence in a neat little package, wrapped in a bow by someone else.

  9. In other news, what a freaking joke they've got going on in Memphis. You've got solid teams sitting at home, while T-ball teams in Memphis get to screw around all spring and make it to sub state, JUST to forfeit. What an absolute joke Memphis is.

  10. Exactly.It amazes me how every year in any sport a Head Coach doesnt know the rules.Whether lots tranfer,eligibility or even a JV/Varsity pitch count and its costs the whole team advancement.Its all in black and white!Just take some time and read the rules.
