Answer me this. If PFHS is going to be that good then why did they refuse to scrimmage Cloudland recently?

Jamie Combs of the Elizabethton Star. He doesn't write much anymore but when he does he puts the kids first...the way it should be.

You are right on the money Sequatchie. The 'Dogs have a tough schedule but hopefully it will get them ready for the playoffs.

Danny McClain is currently the Principal at Hampton High School and cannot become the Head Football Coach unless he gives up his current position. This is why I say that Scotty Bunton will be your next coach. With Doug Phillips retired, he still helps out though, and Danny being principal, that is most likely the logical choice. I have heard other rumors though but I won't get into them, as they are simply that...speculation.

Look for Scotty Bunton to take over. He is currently the head Baseball coach now. But a lot could happen between now and then.

I pretty much agree with REBELRON, but I would also add J.C. Campbell of Hampton to the list. He has been very successful for many years (30+) and is still going strong, although I believe this will be his last year. He deserves some recognition.

I agree with you answer but the powers that be say that the student athletes signed with a university not a coach. I think that the new coach, whomever it may be, has the power to release the player(s) from their letter of intent. Someone can correct me on this for I am not sure...

You can contact Coach Hazelwood at: [email protected]

It is a tournament, not a classic. For more information contact Coach Hazelwood @ 423-725-5220 or 423-542-0995.

If they wanted some competition they should have played the Lady Landers (State Tournament Class A) two years in a row, or maybe they thought better of it...They were better than West Greene and gave Boone a fit both times they played this year.

Hampton High School is looking for a couple of teams, both boys and girls, to play in their annual Christmas Tournament. The dates are Dec. 26,27,29. For more information contact Boys Coach Bud Hazelwood @ 423-725-5220 or 423-542-0995, or Girls Coach Leslie Campbell @ 423-725-5200. [Edited by deputydog on 4-10-03 6:16A]

Chris Vaught of Hampton High School. He is definitely the man with the plan. Does a great job with the players and has a good rapport with the coaches and faculty.

LL how could you forget or leave Glenda Blevins off of your list from Hampton High?

Chris Vaught (I hope I spelled it right) at Hampton High School. He is a very dedicated and tireless worker who never gets the credit he deserves.

You are so right Tdog. It is a great loss to lose a person like Ricky. I had the priviledge of knowing Ricky for many years and greatly enjoyed being around him. He played the game the way it was supposed to be played, HARD. This is just another sad reminder that life is precious and one should enjoy their loved ones every second of every day. Words do not do justice at times like this but they do bring back good memories. My thoughts and prayers go out to the Whitehead family. And to you Tdog, a good mark for you.

I second that...Congratulations to Coach Campbell and the Lady Blazers...Coach Campbell is often overlooked despite the great job that he does year in and year out, as well as the players who play HARD at both ends of the floor...Once again, well done ladies...

I know they are in AA but both Happy Valley and Unicoi Co. made it to the state finals before losing. Happy Valley made it in '88 or '89 while Unicoi Co. made it in '91 before losing to South Greene, the year that they played five times.

Moore Co.-44 Cloudland-37 Congratulations Lady Landers on a great season. Moore Co. outscores the Lady Landers 17-6 in the final quarter for the win.

What is everyone talking about with xbballxx? I don't see his thread on here? Has he taken it off or what? Hablo you need to do some more detective work and find out what the deal is...

Science Hill fails to go to the state tournament and everyone says that they are finished...Get a life...Some of you other schools would love to have their "down" years...If you think that they are finished you'd better think again. Let's see...they haven't been to the 'Boro...one year...how long has it been since Kingsport has been...1992 maybe...no comparison but keep on dreaming, maybe someday you will turn into Science Hill.

I'm not a wannabee, I am from Hampton and proud of it!!

Elizabethton will most likely win the game but games are not played on paper. Remember the N.C. State win in '83 over Phi Slamma Jamma and the Villanova win over Georgetown in '85. Sometimes things can happen that are unexpected. Johnson Co. has a huge task and will have to play their best game and hope that Elizabethton is off. Like I said it is not likely but that is why they play the games.

lander87 this is getting old. Why don't you take over next season so we can all get on here and bash you. I will take up for Coach Smith. He was simply trying to find someone, anyone to do what he was asking...throw the ball inside. The grade of the player did not matter, he was simply trying to find people to do what he thought was best for the team. Would you not do that? Isn't that what a good Coach would do, try to find the right combination? I feel that you are fortunate to have Coach Smith. He has brought Cloudland hoops a LONG way in a short period of time. The Coach always get's the blame but never the credit. It is easier to blame one person than a whole team, even though it may be unfair criticism. But that is what happens with fair weather fans...

What makes you say that Coach Daniels helped drive the program in the ground?

Excellent post tincup. Another good mark for you.
