From a proud program to an also ran ?? Is that what we are witnessing ?? I have followed Wildcat football for ages (And still support the program !!) but after 4 games i see the team getting worse each and every week. This I know for a fact, the players, the parents, and the fans have lost faith in the coaching staff. All you had to do was be there at the games and listen to know that. Head Coach David Staff is a good man, and is not an idiot, but at the same time how does he get that faith back ? Or is it time for somebody else to step in and lead this program ? Folks we still have 6 games to play, and where do we go from here ???? Whatever you think of the coaching, or lack there of, dont give up on these kids. They have never given up in any game, they played hard to the last whistle. Give the kids a chance and your support for the rest of this season and then we can talk about what needs to be done with the coaching situation. Go Wildcats !!

As a Sweetwater Wildcat I will say this. I love to play Polk County, the fans are great, the kids play hard and it is always a great game. Coach Davis is not only a really good coach he is a good man. I know this guy and he never sends anyone out to hurt another player he has way too much class for that kind of thing. And being from sweetwater I know Mike Martin will have his team ready to play. should be a good one.

I know the Bears really took one on the chin at GP last friday... just how close to you think this one will be ???

from my understanding yes, sequoyah will be in 4a when it comes playoff time. the tssaa has classified sequoyah as 4a. sweetwater megs polk central are all 3 a when it comes to the playoffs. it is very hard to understand how it will all work out but that is the way it will be. and i also want to add something here. i hope and pray that all of the mess that is taking place there at sequoyah can be worked out before the season starts. i am from sweetwater and believe me i bleed blue and gold, but i want to see a strong program at your school. a program that will keep the county riverly going strong into the future. i know you guys were really slaped in the face by the director of schools, if that is what they call him, i worked under him here in sweetwater for two years and it took me about two days to figure him out... its all about him. so i am not shocked at what he did. but please dont let one man bring down a program that you all worked so hard to build. pease give the new coach a chance. and to all the kids ... show this man (mike lowery) he can not beat you , he might have you down, but show him you are not out !!!! play football.. play hard.. and smile every game because that means you are a better man than he !!! I know i am pulling for all the kids up there, it hurts what was done to you, but please dont give up, play the game you love with passion. God bless all of you at sequoyah !!!!

I hope Rockwood watched the Wartburg film.... I still dont know what happend up there. Sweetwater should be ready for this one, this game is huge !! More than likely for third place in the region. Rockwood is always tough, well coached and ready to play. The difference in this one is the defense. Sweetwater 20 Rockwood 14

I think OS has supprised alot of folks this season so far but we here in sweetwater know that coach johnson always has a tough team. I really thought they would be hard pressed to find some offense, but they are doing really well. Good luck guys .. look foward to our game oct. 7

Walker Valley has played the tougher teams.. no doubt about that one.. but I have seen both teams and I think Sweetwater takes this one.. Sweetwater 26 Walker Valley 14

Defense is what wins this one... Sweetwater 20 Loudon 14

what was your question about sweetwater radio ?????

westmoreland hardly ever has any size, but they have alot of heart and that means something. I am from sweetwater and we played those guys in the 90's and they were small then too but let me tell ya they played as hard as any team I have ever seen. Good luck to westmoreland this season !!

we are really going to miss you here in monroe county tank. thanks for all you wrote and for supporting the kids here in the county. want you to know that you are always welcome in the broadcast booth at sweetwater games. take care !!

I was at the Sweetwater / Catholic game and I cant tell ya the score because both teams scored so many times I lost count. But I can tell you that Sweetwater did score the last 6 touchdowns. Sweetwater should be able to score loads of points this season, but can we stop the other team ?? if so, it should be a great year in wildcat country. I heard that Sequoyah lost 16-13 to Rockwood. I do hope all Monroe County teams have a great year.

1. Alcoa 2. Sweetwater 3. Oliver Springs 4. Rockwood 5. Wartburg 6. Harriman

While I will agree with some of your statements.. were you watching the game at all ??? That play you talked about us running about 30 times... well it worked !! We gained about 6 yards every time we ran it. The fact that we had 7 turnovers is what happened in this game. I will agree that Moore should have been in there on defense... but all in all... turnovers were the difference. In the fourth quarter with 11:54 left we had the ball only down 20-13.. then it was 6 stright turnovers.. I am not the biggest Rhodes fan in this town... but he didnt fumble one time that I saw. God Bless all of you that wear blue !!!! I love the wildcats !!!

Just to let you know, I was in the press box with one of the refs (clock operator) and he told me they were out of Knoxville.

you got that righ OSHS.... Now that we have taken out the pretenders... we can deal with the contenders !!! We (Sweetwater) had a great effort tonight beating a really good Pittman team. But the real test starts for us next friday night at Alcoa. Alcoa beat us 21-14 in the regular season, but its hard to beat a team twice in one year. I am a proud Wildcat fan, no doubt about that, but if we cant make it to the semi-finals .. I just hope somebody can beat Lipscomb !!! Go Wildcats

Jake from Coffee County.... 2000 yards ... enough said !! And Dustin Latham from Sweetwater, he can be one of the states best.

Well I think we finally saw the heart in the wildcats we have been looking for all season !! Will it carry over to the Wartburg game... I just have to believe it will. Sweetwater didnt play the best I have ever seen them play but when they had to make a play they did. Sweetwater 30 Wartburg 21. And as for Mr. Tank Johnson, well sir we are lucky to have somebody like you as our sports editor. In this county it is hard to please anybody much less everybody. Lets face it you have forgot more about football than most of those morons that write to you and gripe !! Keep up the good work, and as for Bass... GROW UP !!!

Sweetwater Beat South Doyle 5 TD's to 0

It hurts to see a man like Mike Martin leave the Sweetwater program, but at the same time I want to congratulate him. I have known Mike for many years and Meigs County you are not only getting a great (and I do mean great) football coach but somebody the kids will really love. Good luck in the future (well aginst anybody but Sweetwater ) Coach Martin

Tank, glad to have you here in Monroe County ! I was one of those folks you worked with in Sweetwater when you had your show on WOFE. It is going to be great having somebody like you who really knows sports covering all our games. I, for one, really look foward to your coverage.

Hay; Tarzin give us more we would like to know were we stand at sw., we dont wont to lose m.m.

From a loyal Sweetwater Fan, I just want to say ... Congratulations David Lipscomb !! You have a great team and CLASS to match !!!

What about those Wildcats !! We (no doubt about this one) have the best offensive coach in the State !! Mike Martin is the reason this team is 12-0 (lets just be honest). Mike has worked very hard and has made the kids believe in the double wing. I still hear some in the stands (you know who you are) who badmouth what they do. We only led the state in scoring. So support the Team and the Coaches.... or keep your butt at home !!!!!! GO WILDCATS

To all you Sweetwater fans out there, we have a chance friday night to make history. We can be the first team in history, I mean ever, to beat Oliver Springs. To listen to them every game they have ever lost they really didnt. You see just like your daddy said, we stold the game last year. Every time I hear them talk all I hear is that the refs cost us !! Every game they play should be broadcast on the "Food Channel" because that is the only place they can get cheese with that whine. Win or loose friday night Sweetwaters team, Coaching Staff and fans will do it with class, not show there... well you get the picture.
