BLAZEman

well well blackman fans. time to see where playing a cupcake schedule the first half of the season will get you!!!

 

UH, it looks like a 6-0 record and #3 in the state according to AP. However I'm not sure AP made

the schedule.

I will beat this drum till it sinks in, Blackman has not only beat the teams that were on their schedule but with the exception of Smyrna, HAMMERED THEM!! FRICKIN HALFTIME, FRICKEN GAME OVER, BRING IN THE FRICKEN BAND... SORRY THEIR ALREADY HERE!!!!!

 

WE ARE BLACKMAN!! and we make no excuses.

 

I dont think any educated person on here can say that Blackman isnt any good... All were saying is given their schedule, you really dont know how good they are. I think thats a fair assessment. If you beat RHS or OHS in the coming weeks then get on here and beat your drum all day long... Until then you have to take off your blue and orange colored glasses and see this schedule for what it is.... A joke! I dont blame the kids or the coaches (only bc Shad wasnt there when this schedule was made). I also dont except the excuse that they had a hard time finding games, bc so did everybody else... RHS went out and scheduled Farragut, OHS scheduled Ensworth and Brentwood, Smyrna also played Ensworth... There were good teams out there to play and BHS just decided not to do it... Maybe it was smart, maybe it wasnt? But we will all find out in a few weeks... I for one hope Blackman is for real, I would love to see 3 M'boro teams make serious runs come November.

before you get on here and run your mouth...maybe you should take a look at the defending state champs non-region schedule last year...hmmm...did you look because what i see is actually the same thing blackman has going this year. but what do i know. there is just no way blackman could win state. i mean they are blackman. just washed up middle school heroes i suppose. oakland and riverdale scheduled ensworth and farragut and both got beat. why do we want a loss. because they lost, we are now in sole possession of first place in the district. well look at that no way thats blackman. oh but it is. better get used to it because we are riding this train all the way to cookeville and we are gonna leave there with a gold ball. but hey, after that it will just be known by everyone(excluding blackman) that it was just a bad year in tennessee high school football, right? hate if you want, but at least respect us. if we beat siegel by fifty will you finally give us some credit? lord, we would probably have to win by 100 to get any respect around here. but we like that, and we are gonna keep creepin until yall cant doubt us anymore because we will be on top of the mountain and there is nothin yall can do to keep us away.

For one anyone who says blackmans O is to strong go look at who they played.

When they actually played a good team there o looked Avg at best. i doubt'd Siegel til i actually seen them play. They play some darn good D and have a great RB along with one of the best playmakers in TN at WR. I just think Siegel will win, one thing I will say about blackmans weak schedule is that it builds confidence.

you sir, are a moron

Brentwood by at least 21. no contest for the bruins

Ensworth by 10. Oakland's offensive line is too small to match up with ensworth. and has everyone forgotten about ensworths rb? anyway i will be there pulling for ensworth the whole way

Was anybody booted from the team in the last few days?

two people have been kicked off the team as of now. i will not disclose the names due to privacy.

does this post even really matter? if they play someone from rutherford county they automatically lose....every time.

Blackman vs. Independence. What are we thinking about this matchup? With Blackman already beating Independence once this season, will independence be able to match the swag of the Blaze? And with Blackman striding at the right time, will they be tough to stop?

Hmmm.........this dialogue sounds vaguely familiar.

 

Actually folk DO think of Blackman like they do Franklin County so that would have been a good match.

if you even compare franklin county and blackman then you are only lowering the rutherford county teams. just go get back on oaklands post and leave blackman to us. i love how oakland thinks they are awesome after a stroke of luck last season (with the exception of lebanon but its fine i guess we'll see in the fall

Then why do it then? Did you really think Blackman could stack up to Bob Jones at this point? Be glad the 2nd half got cancelled, otherwise you probably shattered all the confidence that they gained.

 

Plenty of schools in Tennesee willing to play and are in spring right now. It isn't like Blackman has a powerhouse reputation and no one will play them. This one just didn't make sense to me.

 

Who else did Blackman scrimmage and how have they looked so far? Are all coaches in place?

this was simply a test for the blackman players. now that they see how they stack up against another team, they will come to work harder in the summer. it wasn't a bad decision on the coaches part. i mean they could have scrimmaged that "powerhouse" franklin county again. look how that worked out for blackman last year. and by the way most teams in tennessee were already scheduled or spring practice had already been finished. don't get on here and spew ignorance if you don't know what you're talking about

it is done...players from mtcs are reporting that shad told them today that he is packing up and moving to blackman.

sorry mtcs

When will the name be released? What about some hints since you seem to have the answer? Who were the finalists? Talk to us, let us know!!

 

I had heard that they were still interviewing, but I guess my source was wrong if you are correct.

rumor has it that the new coach of blackman will be released tomorrow but i don't know that for sure....but hopefully thats right

I have heard from 3 different folk today that this job is Carlton Flatt's to turn down.

this is not the future head coach of blackman, be assured.

whatever your source, it is wrong.

the future coach of blackman has been selected but has not been released

the coach is someone blackman will not be disappointed to have..that is for sure

i don't know anyone that would say that matt williams DID NOT do a really good job at smyrna this year...i'm sure ther're a few out there...but most would say he did a great job...and their are no signs of him running the program in the ground (these were your words)...maybe you are a prophet or have a crystal ball...but what would you base your prediction on...except it sounds like you don't like williams for some reason???

 

the difference between coffee county and smyrna or at least one difference is smyrna did it twice...which simply shows they are and were legit...

 

actually i'm not sure the region had a down year...riverdale may have been down...but if you look at how close most of the scores were between oakland and the other region teams...you will see that once again region 4-5A is superior from top to bottom...

 

i actually like the freshman team (that were juniors this year)...theyy were apart of a pretty good team this year who played hard every game, had alot of adversity to over come, one win away from the playoffs, and played the best two teams in the region as bout as tight as you can play a team...the bottom line is these juniors still have another year together and have an opportunity to have a great senior year...it should not be too hard to win for the new coacch at blackman

 

and all i meant about the freshman team for the bulldogs is they have talent and therefore the potential to continue to be good

 

thanks for letting me know what the 3rd round is called...i just used another word..synonym is what it is called...just another way to express quarterfinals...

 

hey...if you hate williams or smyrna or both...just say it...or at least say why (at least give some evidence or i wish my kid/ cousin/ neighbors kid would have played more...etc)...but you stand in very little company when it comes to the job williams did this year with the bulldogs...and know one knows how he will do next year but all signs look to another good year at smyrna...

i never said i hated williams because i don't...i actually respect the williams brothers as much as any...the only thing i meant when i said i thought he was driving it into the ground was he lost some talent(some which he will never replace) and i am not so sure that hiring his brother for offensive coordinator was the best decision he could have made. sorry if i offended you...i know that you and Josh both liked Matt, but i just don't see him having as good of a year next year

Wait... when did they move the championship to round three??? Boy I'm glad someone reminded me I was about to go to the game next weekend! Come on there is a reason both these teams are in the championship, this should be a great game and after the way Oakland played against Ooltewah I think they stand a very good chance at knocking off Franklin.

But since you seem to know more than all the rest of us on here when is the championship for AAA basketball? I'd like to see that game. /cool.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="B)" border="0" alt="cool.gif" />

ha

3rd round of playoffs in 1st year at the school...

lost in 4 overtimes to 5A finalist (and probable state champs) and again by 6 points at end of the game...

players played hard for him every game...

did this with no returning QB...and lost tons of talent off of last years state championship team...

has the full backing of the administration...

incredible amount of talent coming back and the freshman class is absolutely loaded...no one even came close to them this year

 

sounds like he has really run it in the ground...LOL and the future looks bleak...

huh looks like the only real talent he lost was sonny and rod

and as for the ALMOST win against oakland....what was that oakland and coffee county score again???

i would expect any coach to make it that far in the playoffs after inheriting a two time state championship team

and it does help that the region had a down year this year....no standout teams except for oakland

and as for the freshman team.....remember the 2006 blackman freshman team??? oh yeah twenty was as close as anyone came...now look at them....just because you are good freshman year doesn't mean you are good in varsity.

freshman to seniors are able to play at the varsity level...bigger,stronger,faster...freshman means nothing

and as for coffee county who ALMOST beat oakland...they finished 2-8..shows how much ALMOST means

{oh yeah----the 3rd round is called the quarterfinals}

dont think im ripping anyone. Just stating the facts. Why do i need to tell you my name, this is what the boards are for. People posting their opinions. My son plays at one of the middle schools that feed to lavergne. Why would i want my son to play for a man that doesn't want to be there. ive been watching the lavergne program, the 5-5 season had the most talent on any team. 5 game lost by a total of 10 pts, don't blame players that sounds like coaching to me. don't need to hate on a proven loser, so i guess we will be going to smyrna lol. ne1 know how to get a zone exemption

good luck at smyrna...the williams brothers are slowly driving that program into the ground...look at the fantastic job they did at blackman...no offense and absolutely no pass coverage....at most smyrna wins six next year

where is wells going

wells already stated the he does not want to go to lavergne

This is true. It's exciting.

getting kevin dyson would be the worst possible thing that could ever happen to Blackman. just because he is a Tennessee celebrity doesn't mean he will be a good coach. I wouldn't put it past vick to hire him though. the athletics have gotten worse every year since she has been there.

i think blackman will win 21-6

 

 

really? riverdale demolished themselves and still beat blackman. but good luck to blackman this friday i hope they dominate smyrna everywhere on the field all night i just had to get off on this ignorant comment real quick lol

if you look at the stats Blackman made a lot of mistakes of that game as well. Don't make statements if you don't watch football.Less mistakes=win

i am calling blackman in this one....but i think it will be close

so far the only thing that has beaten blackman has been themselves

i am gonna say its gonna be a close one but blackman pulls it out 13-7

If Oakland doesn't win by at least thirty it is a disappointment. I have the Pats on top big time in this one.

48-3

This is the week that Blackman is REALLY going to regret not hiring Crawford! I honestly do not know how Blackman won last year.

 

First off they are playing at Brentwood.

 

Secondly they will out for revenge for last years loss.

 

Add them both together and it spells a LONG night for Blackman.

You better worry about the warriors before the Blaze. Riverdale didn't have too stellar of a performance the other night either.

What's that I hear-----Oh yeah Riverdale lost to Jokeland.

Blackman definitely has a shot to win this week.....that is if the coaching staff allows. I agree with letting Patton have the ball more and maybe passing the ball instead of letting defenses key in on the run game all the time. Our offensive line didn't block well last week but can you blame them when the same plays are called over and over. The defense has looked strong to this point. Last week really showed some flaws in the d though. They will have to get these corrected in order to win the game. The offense also has to have a good game. Probably will be blocked a little better this week after last week's nightmare performance.

I have Blackman in this one------24-13
