  1. I believe Carter is facing the same problems (lack of discipline, etc.) that Pitts faced when he took over the basketball program. If you want a formula for success, just look at how Pitts did it. It was painful for a while (had to find the kids that were commited to his system and way of doing things) but then paid off big in results.
  2. unfortunately 60% chance of rain for the game Thursday night . . .
  3. D-B Band at UT game . . . http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P5jx5EsT0C4&feature=youtu.be
  4. first time a high school band has played at UT football game since 1964 ! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P5jx5EsT0C4&feature=youtu.be
  5. Attached is a link to video of D-B's halftime performance at UT football game - they looked, and sounded, like a college band. It was the first time since 1964 that UT has invited a high school band to share this venue with them. Later this year D-B will be traveling to New York to march in their 5th Macys Thanksgiving Day Parade. ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P5jx5EsT0C4&feature=youtu.be )
  6. D-B Band will be in Atlanta at a competition.
  7. Kingsport high school football fans are the best on away games (some schools have had to bring in extra bleachers for the game). . . Dobyns-Bennett and Sullivan South
  8. Great game for D-B over a very athletic West team. D-B was 28 for 33 at the free throw line after continually driving to the basket against the taller Rebels.
  9. tradition rich over the past 50 years . . . . Dobyns-Bennett vs. Oak Ridge
  10. You obviously don't know much about the Knoxville Stars and Thunder youth baseball programs - how they operate and their relationship with the high schools (and has been for many years). I believe you either don' t know your baseball or are terribly naive.
  11. That's because Farragut (and Bearden) use the youth sports programs to recruit from all over Knoxville, much the same as White Station in Memphis . . .
  12. Bryan Station coach did a TERRIBLE job of attacking Tennessee High's zone defense !!
  13. Why didn't Justin Sylvester play in D-B's win over Sullivan East tonight ?
  14. how will D-B do with all their injuries and this being their first road game ? /blink.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":blink:" border="0" alt="blink.gif" />
  15. what's the latest injury report on CS ? /sad.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":(" border="0" alt="sad.gif" />
  16. difference in the scoring was at the guard position . . . D-B hit seven 3-pointers and Bearden hit none - also their guards had trouble with pressure defense
  17. It has to be Dobyns-Bennett. First of all they won the Tennessee Governor's Cup last fall at MTSU in the Contest of Champions - this is considered the "state championship" for bands in Tennessee. Next they marched in this year's Rose Parade (major competition to be selected) for the second time in the last five years - this is almost unheard of for a high school band from outside of California. They have been invited and marched in the London Millinium Day Parade, Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade, the Sugar Bowl Parade/Game, and many others in the last fifteen years. The music program is strong as evidenced by the 380 band members - the largest band in the state of Tennessee (to include The Pride of the Southland at UT).

  19. If "winning is the only concern (criteria)", then the best by far not only in Tennessee but also in the US has to be Dobyns-Bennett. They have the most wins of any school in the country in basketball, the second most baseball wins in the US, and the most wins in the state in football.
