Rankinated2010

YOu cant come on here and say stuff like that, come on. Be mature. Austin has worked hard all year long and your opinion like that is surely not needed. Sorry but I dont sugar coat things. I tell stuff exactly like I see it I dont care if its Milan, Goodpasture, Maryville or my own Alcoa. The best thing to do is to prove me wrong on the field. The best thing to do it first consider the feelings of the players, we get on here and read these things and you know , if i were Austin and i got on here and saw one of MY OWN FANS saying that i was the worst quarterbacks in the last 10 years then that would really really help my self esteem , lemme tell ya.

I havent been on this thread yet simply because I decided i would go around the trash talk and let my class of 2010 boys show yall the work last night. Enough Said? Milan was the best team we played this year by far IMO. Congrats to the bulldogs for a great season i wish the seniors the best of luck in whatever they choose to do after high school. 6 In a row baby, I wouldnt have picked a better way to have it my senior year of highschool. Rankinated is signing out till soccer season....see yall later.

Yeah, we couldnt do it last year........we just kinda won the game off of chance

Tornadogold: thank you also! im glad someone appreciates what i have to say around here haha and you know me , im pretty "school spirited" so i have to voice my opinion regularly.......hope that didnt give away my secret identity :]

First of i would like to say that maybe , and this is pushing the limits, that 20% of all students in alcoa are tuition students, and when you knock that down to just teh football team it becomes significantly lower. Second, How many of the players are originally from alcoa? If yiou go back the past 5 or 6 years, names like Randall Cobb, Kyrus Lanxter, Rae Sykes, Troy Hodge and so on stick out in our minds. All of which grew up in Alcoa and most in the Hall Community. Most of our star players have grown up in Alcoa and come all the way to the highschool via midget and middle school programs. So your point there then becomes pointless. I would also like to say that I love when a team boast about how good they are and how their defense is the best in the state and then once we beat them they automatically go to the tuition and recruiting arguement. Weve proved you wrong for years and will continue to, so find another scapegoat. You commented on state championships being able to be bought by money, i would hate to assume that you are taking away from the countless hours these boys put in every week to give this team success, , thats selfish and immature. GROW UP. Were sorry we beat your team , were sorry we scored 34 points on the best defense in the state. WERE SORRY. hope your 13-1 record is appealing to your senses because as long as we are around it will not surpass that. Thank you for your time. #1--- I guess other teams dont practice and put in the hours! #2--- You said maybe 20%,so you really dont know and would never let it be known if it were like 60%! #3---I never said we had the best defense in the state! #4--- We were 11-3 after last night, and have no excuses you beat us hands down! #5--You have a great thing going and I wouldnt want to give it up either! #6--Good Luck in state but you really dont need it!! I apologize for the mess up on your record, it was not meant to bring your team or its accomplishments down in any way and yes i say "maybe" 20% becuase its prolly lower than that in reality, i can attest for that being as Im a senior this year and know the kids that are in the school. and i never said that other teams dont practice and put in the hours, i simply said you using the arguement about recruiting and paying our players takes away from all that becuase THAT is why we are good. We have one of the best coaching staffs in the state if not in the nation. Rankin has many sportsmanship awards and even a EA National Coach of the year award. That says alot about or coaches and staff. again ,thank you for your time. Good luck to your team next year.

Im still here, Havent been on that much this year but Im still goin strong im a senior this year. But all I have to say about this friday is I think we got em scared volsknox, what you think?

How is this the biggest rivalry? hmm 1200+ people every year, close games, genuine dislike for each other,"rich vs poor", county bragging rights, pride,the 2 best teams in the state, championships,and so on... just wondering, what do you think the biggest rivalry is??? try more like 8,000+ every year. im on your side with this. rivalries can seem one sided. this is def one of the greatest rivalrys in the state

I think its funny you rebels always bring up[ the fact its never gonna happen, just like your win streak was never gonna end , and there was no way EVER that HIllsboro was gonna beat you. Well looks like the times have changed, i do realize you all had an impressive show at the jamboree against heritage and put a big 10 point whoopin on that stacked greenback squad. Look forward to this friday, good luck and hope everyone stays injury free.

Although 31% of the schools students were on tuition, only about 10% of that 30% participated in school sports or extracurricular activitites, therefore i find your point very invalid. Believe it or not parents send their kids here for a good education , not just gold rings.

Its always nice to start on top though :]

.......we didnt invent football?

hackett!!!

Lets all get our panties in a wad at the same time. Ive been with alcoa the past 4 years, thats close to 1400 miles ive drove to see thses games and who knows how much gas. Is it really worth complainig? If you were TSSAA you would want to save money to. I dont wanna sound like the devisl advocate cause im not , i just think some people are making too much of a big deal about this.
