Feb 26 is Blade Day! I want be there for it sorry.
-
Good Luck to the Wildcats!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
-
Is this 100% true?
-
I want to know who Ron Gray stabbed in the back? I know that the players on the team today still look up to Ron Gray more then Staton. Stanton need to get things together and get some people in there that BLEED Oak Ridge Football.
-
What we need are the parents to get there children out there on the field and off the streets. There are students that just rather stay on the street and listen to the people on the street then positive people. That is not a coaches or administrations fault. I do agree that our coach at the high school need to be on the street and directing them to a positive environment which is some sort of positive extracurricular activity at ORHS. Gaddis did this very well!
-
Yes, especially since the coach is going nowhere at the moment. There is much we can do here in the Secret City to continue to make our football program among the elite in the state. I have some suggestions that will come in a later post since time is short. Please all keep the thread civil so it doesn't get shut down. Go Cats!
We are waiting!

Don't go into teaching just because you want to coach.
That was a great statement. Do not get into coaching with out WANTING to teach and help students. Football is all about helping students and teaching them about life.
-
Can we all just get along and support the student players? It is all about making these young men successful in life. What about that Cledis?
-
I really think Oak Ridge will not lose a game in the new arena.
-
Fulton wins by as much as they want to win by
Your quote have me hyped up for the game. They need to pass this to the players to get them ready
-
I enjoyed my first AE and Fulton game this season. If AE would have had more fight the game would have been better to watch.
-
Thanks because I was just wondering. This is the same Sunbright that Newberry coached at right?
Johnny Harrison is the new coach, I think. This is his first year. He was previously at Cookeville HS. As far as the record goes, I dont know. Sorry
-
I was wondering who is the coach at Sunbright and how long he has been there? What is the record for Sunbright this year?
-
The last part of your statement is well typed. It seem to me you know a lot about the boosters and how they spend their money. If there was any money issues about Oak Ridge Football it would have been in the paper so that statement I do not know where you getting your information from unless you are part of the boosters
QUOTE(Tnbreakers @ Apr 16 2007 - 06:09 PM) 826438838[/snapback]The most political hire in history! Good Luck and I hope the powers to be get what they deserve!! If you can't see this then you don't want to. The train is moving down the track at a very high rate of speed, if not derailed soon there will be a terrible wreck that will take years to cleanup. If you truley know what is going on inside this program and do not think things are way out of whack, I have some can't miss lottery tickets I would be willing to part with at a very REASONABLE price!!!! No dog in this fight anymore, but I hate to see this happen to the kids and the long time supporters of this "Once" proud program. A lot of lip service, but very little actions on the part of the leadership team!!! I hope I am wrong and good luck to future teams of OR. Hopefully everyone on the team will get a trophy every year, isn't that how we do it now? When support dwindles and the money that is raised is spent in very inappropriate ways, and there is some accountability for their actions push will come to shove. I have always thought that if you can get up every day and look in the mirror and know you have have truley given it your all then you are making a difference. If that is the case then I will see you in Murfreesboro next year and years to come!!! Good Luck to all the players!

I totally agree with you bounder. He did get a team that has worked hard already. So now you are saying this year has to be better or it is not good for him? Stanton has been to the state before with another team and won it, so what do we say about that?
QUOTE(bounder @ Apr 13 2007 - 02:22 PM) 826436936[/snapback]I shouldn't respond to this but here goes: SirPettus you need to come up to the Atomic City and see for yourself, then make a decision about the status of Oak Ridge Football. This has been said many times before but maybe you just didn't see it The team that went to the State tournament was Coached by Stanton Stevens, however he assumed a team of 28 seniors that had worked their way to where they were with the help of other coaches. He brought a new offense but he still had a tailback that gained 2000 yards. And a proven quarterback,offensive and defensive line, secondaries, ect.
Probably with the team he inherited even you or I could have taken them to state. Well maybe not me cause I don't know anything about football!
And that's all I have to say about that!

Please one day come to my face n talk about my English. I will say thank you. ha ha ha
QUOTE(Oak Ridger @ Apr 14 2007 - 06:15 AM) 826437253[/snapback]Good to see Pettus back on the board and still making the Oak Ridge English department proud.

Why are you and others so hard on STANTON? Is it because he is not like Lussier, Gaddis, or even Hail? He is different and I think you guys need to give the guy a chance and get off his back. The man took the Cats to the state game his first year then had a bad one. I dont know maybe you all can do better. He will hire you because there are some positions open over there. Go for it and give it a shot BOUNDER. /laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":lol:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" />

Statements like that burns me up because Maryville should be compaired to Oak Ridge coaching staff not Oak Ridge compaired to Maryville's. I would like to see former Oak Ridge players hold up our tradition in Oak Ridge by making all the players accountable. They should puss them like we were pushed in the pass and make Oak Ridge Football be all in their vains.
QUOTE(cbg @ Apr 9 2007 - 01:21 PM) 826433172[/snapback]JMO, but Oak Ridge should be able to win 6-7 games per year on athletic talent alone.
Who do they play that is going to be very tough other than Fulton & DB? Oak Ridge has good athletes with size & speed and if you just get them in the right position you will win games. A good coaching staff should compete for state championships most years and great staff could have a program like Maryville.
-
So who is the darn coach. It is almost spring practice time. I want that job now!!!
-
I see were you coming from Ole Dad but Stanton is trying to be around the children all times. If he is with the football program he is missing out on some of his players off season work outs. He has some good assistance to help him down in the weight room. The pass great coaches did not work with nothing other then football and they were very succeful every year. So this year will tell it all.
-
I am just ready to hear a name. I put my name in and I got a second call and interview. I would love for them to go ahead and announce me as the head coach. I am tired of waiting on this because the players are going to lose the most because of spring ball is coming up. The players do not even know what type of offence they are going to run.
-
Who signed on the dotted line from OR?
-
Oak Ridge will not have any problem finding coaches if some of them leave. I hate to see the former players of a great program like Oak Ridge leave. This is not good for the great system that was build in passed years. I would like to see more former players come back and teach and coach.
Oak Ridge!
in Class 5A & Class 6A
