I agree the taunting had no impact on the outcome of the game. I would have just like the students and others in the stand to cheer for our team and not focus on Samber. He did a lot of good while he was at Upperman and deserves at least a little respect.

The Bees definitely had it figured out last night and really played hard. They were the better team no question about it last night. The one thing I do question is what the crowd's reasoning is behind taunting Coach Samber every chance they get. I understand he left here and went home to York and the timing wasn't the best but if they only knew how ignorant they sound to the fans on the other side of the field. Heck they sound ignorant and I'm on their side of the field. Just seems classless.

Any first hand updates from the Livingston scrimmage?

My point exactly. There might be talented kids that go to school there but because of politics and "daddyball" that program will never be competitive.

Maynord in Cookeville will ride the Angel kid as far as it will take him. Get his picture in the paper when he signs and will look good for a while. His dad and uncle are both on the coaching staff so who do you think is really calling the shots? Maynord knows he has to come up with some good publicity after the disaster he guided the team to last year. UpperCumberlandMan it isn't that they lack talent as much as it is the political mess they can't seem to get behind them and it is only getting worse.

Got to give it to the Smokey Bears! Good job! I'd like to also acknowledge the Cavaliers and how well they played. Great high school football game!

Interesting facts there on the Warriors. I'll take Cookeville by 2TDs at least.

Cookeville might get beat but I wouldn't bet against them. They shut Lebanon completely down last Friday night. Cavs have 2 Varisty QBs and that is working well for them. Defense working well too.

Classy post! I was beginning to think that all owl fans had become Maynord haters in the last few months!

Inappropriate - that is hilarious!

I was neutral in the discussion until this post just curious of the outcome but this statement is idiotic!Did he all of a sudden become Satan when he took the job in Cookeville?I don't know the man personally but he was a football saint in Smith Co until earlier this year and now he is hated?

And everyone is entitled to there own. I will always buzz for the Bees but Maynord will make Cookeville hard to handle in the next few years. Maybe not this year but they were smart with the hire.

I guess anything is possible but the Cookeville team UHS played in the fall was not the same team they played in the first scrimmage they had. UHS didn't fair as well once Maynord had the CAVS in pads for a few weeks. Would it be a bragging right and good for the OWLS' pride to beat Maynord? Certainly would! But very unlikely. You know Joslin leaving Cookeville started the ball rolling and those folks still sing his praises to anyone that will listen. From what parents up there say no one had a clue he was being courted by another school. To hear some of the SC peeps you would think Maynord was the devil himself.

As a coach I'm sure he does everything he can to beat every team he plays against no matter who the opponent is because that is why teams have coaches. Seems like there is a lot of hostility towards Maynord coming from some people in SC.

Goldeagle you are exactly right! Did not mean to that Cookeville needs to take his ability lightly.
