ONEOLDCOACH ... if you are out there ... could you confirm, deny, or at least give a little detail of this incident? I'm not in any way doubting you RebelRon, but could there perhaps be more to the story?
Can't answer this question, I never heard this said. I was told that it was said, but I did not hear anyone make that statement. But I do know that he took a bunch of delay of game calls near the end of the half. And two years ago, they did refuse to play us.
I have no hard feelings directed at Rick. We've both been working at it a long time. It's not my place to tell him how to coach his team, I just try to do the best that I can with "THE REBS". I'm sure he doesn't always agree with me nor do I always agree with him, That's what makes the world go round.
As for THE GOVS, we've got kids from our program that have played at Blount, and I'm sure that we will have others that will play there. Our job is to teach these kids football fundementals, disipline, and what it means to be part of a team. Where they go to high school is entirely up to them and their parents. As for me I'M A REBEL through and through. But whereever these kids go to highschool we'll support them and their families. Some of our best kids have gone to WB, Heritage and Alcoa.
GOVMAN,
As we talked many years ago when we had youth from all four high schools in our youth group
Is it not a shame, that we can't compete on the field.....and just leave it there...and when it's over just get together and thank GOD that the game was played fairly, safely and with CLASS
