  1. We had a couple habitual offenders. I’m bringing duck tape for them mouths! Two who should know better by now. I guarantee you it was addressed. I kind of thought somebody stole their pregame snacks or something & they were just hangry!!!! I agree with everyone else....that’s not acceptable at all!
  2. We retaliated on defense. Much more physical than 1st meeting. They were feeling these hits a tad bit more. That’s the kind of retaliation we love to see!
  3. Awe...we know what SP brings to the table! Gotta focus on R3 first and we look to host an upset minded OS team.
  4. Teams feel they can be more successful doubling up on #23. Pulls safety way over to his side of field but it backfires! Pick your poison! One on one coverage & open running lanes makes the other boys plum giddy & rightfully so. He’ll just become downfield blocker & watch the other speedsters weave their way to the endzone. This team can hurt you in many many ways! We had 7 different players score TDs. Run...throw...what your defense gonna give us? We’ll exploit it!
  5. It’s a wonder we came out mostly unscathed with no serious injury. #2 took cheap shots all night long away from the ball, on the ball & everything in between. To say he didn’t have a target on his back is an understatement. The boys got some good legal shots in on him every chance they got. Coach Henry is a joke of a coach. Zero respect for that man when he can’t control a player under his authority. A respectable coach takes him out. I guess trying to keep the game “close” is more important than the damage he can cause on the field. No win is worth playing dirty. Our coaches will not allow that but.......they sure will tell you between the whistles hit em hard & lay the wood to them. Saw a little wood laying tonight!
  6. Other than the travel playing basketball in Region 1 District 2 is great! It is a good fit for us. You guys take your basketball seriously with great fan support. Would be nice if we could have more fan support in those away games but the travel just too much. Greenback travels well when in closer proximity. Well they used to at least.
  7. It has lost its luster for many I’m afraid Over the years and arguably so. So hard to compare skill players to linemen & even QBs to WRs and RBs. I think it matters if they are playing both ways at a high level and taking on additional duties as far as returning kicks & punting. Can they play multiple positions and when they do how good are they there? I’m sure, as reported, they consider grades and character...but boy that is splitting hairs sometimes. With so many teams in each class I would love to see them give out more awards. Heck these kids only play HS football once in their life and it isn’t that expensive to get a few more plaques even if they don’t have a costly banquet for all the awards. I guess that is where All State comes in to play. But I’ve often wondered if their shouldn’t still be a linemen award. May be viewed as a consolation award but maybe an option would be to have an Offensive & a Defensive MVP along with a Mr. Football. That might be better served to be an TSSAA Allstate MVP for offense & defense in addition to the rest of the Allstate positional team. I just think too many quality kids get left out!
  8. I still can’t believe Eddie Moore got snubbed! Remind me again his positions in HS football that he played and I’ll be really impressed if somebody can tell me his stats and who beat him out for Mr. Football! I was a little distracted back in 98 expecting my first born in December. Only kept up with Tennessee football and remember his name mentioned when they talked recruiting prospects.
  9. Nah I think we’d rather take our chances with Meigs, Oneida, Rockwood, Cumberland Gap & Wartburg. All but CG are teams GB has been playing for years in all sports. We could still schedule Coalfield & a nice OOC schedule. To be honest 2A overall in the East would be a nice fit for Greenback football. Due to only 3 classifications in the other sports we probably need to stay 1A just a different district.
  10. When Harriman was fielding competitive teams in recent years Region 2s top 4 handled all the teams in Region 1. It seems as of late GB, Coalfield & OS have been handling Region 1. Nothing against Region 1 other than who wants to drive 2.5 hours to watch a lopsided victory? Even if it was a more competitive region who wants to drive that far? We were forced to play Region 1 District 2 in basketball and baseball and it is completely lopsided in baseball the last 2 years & basketball however more competitive 5 hour round trips sometimes twice a week on school nights are ridiculous. Cheerleaders don’t even travel to away district games. Parents can’t even get to the games. I would rather play 2A in football or even better bring our school back to Region 2 District 3 in the other sports or even District 4. I’d rather play Tellico and the Chattanooga area. Much closer! Most everyone would rather drive an hour or less and have theIr butt handed to them every once in awhile than do this. I can’t stress how bad the baseball competition is. Those have become DH for the most part just to get them out of the way. It’s not fair to the winners or the losers to have 1/2 innings that last over an hour!
  11. We could start a poll who makes it to Greenback sooner....Crow or Uknowit!!! Of course that hinges on whether we take care of Coalfield. They appear to have a new big TE on the field.
  12. Well you never asked like uknowit did! Hopefully your Indians keep you busy on Fridays for a few more weeks. If not and we’re still rolling come on down and you can arm wrestle uknowit for the goodies! Maybe gfd will be in the baking mood too!
  13. It was brownies!!!! Tell me if you’re coming and I’ll bring them. GFD is a good cookie maker too! He brought some one night & they were the best ever. He was a little offended when I asked who made them lol. He was like “I made those!” I mean I get chili, beans, grilling but baked desserts.....they were that good!
  14. I’d hate to see that poor body guard after messing with a Willis! You think I’m joking but I’m not!
  15. I laugh every time I hear GBNation called an orchestrator! For anybody that knows him knows he’s one of the least likely people to ever orchestrate anything. I take that back he does orchestrate a little on these boards but that is only for fun. He tends to just take life as the good Lord gives it and there’s you some TRUTH!
  16. How hard is it for TSSAA to verify a “bus” runs by the home address when conducting the initial clearance? That is complete failure on TSSAA part if they are clearing without checking all the qualifications. They should have a checklist and once they clear they clear unless info provided was false info. If the issue was the bus in this instance TSSAA should have known that prior to clearing the player. That should have been asked & clarified. TSSAA messed up and should not be able to penalize retroactively on a cleared player in this type of instance. This is crazy stupid! Don’t clear until you are presented all paperwork that could affect an entire team. As long as all actions and paperwork is legit then clear and own it! If at some point evidence proves otherwise then there’s an issue. Have humans lost all logic this day & time? Surely there is more to this than what has been presented. If not I pray for those involved a fair and just appeal process is done and TSSAA will realize they dropped the ball and to penalize someone else for their error is absurd.
  17. Greenback Fall Festival at school Thursday night so I doubt our Friday game gets moved. Senior night & 50% Possibility of rain. WBIR says spotty showers Friday night. If thunder & lightning aren’t expected play ball!!!!
  18. Great! I’ll be the one stopping by to visit with the skillet & we can talk orchestration face to face. I think I’ll introduce you to LJ! OnB don’t you think Roy needs to meet LJ? I know Crowe does!
  19. You all SP & MC folks have fun tonight! Hope both teams bring their best game, officiating is clean and no injuries! We’ll stay posted to updates.
  20. We are sharing the link to vote on all social media platforms. Last check our game had taken a slight lead after being a distant 2nd yesterday. Hard to compete in fan votes with the large fan bases at Ravenwood/Brentwood but the little guys are giving it their all!
  21. Maybe I is maybe I ain’t! I’m just enjoying Greenback football Roy!
