Thanks Chill!! It didn't take me long.I just wanted to make sure my legend still lived on Coacht. And it makes me feel good that you remember my boys too!!! I'll see you again in a few prob not 10. I have a grandson that is starting to get it honest too. Thanks for letting me know my legend is not just in my mind CHILL!!!!!

So its been a lot of years since I have been on here.But I thought the best thing I saw last nite was CAK coach relaying a really loud and strong message to his players that you cant play with those guys so we will just stand here while we are behind by 8 and Bowden is in foul trouble so we don't get blown out.Message received coach your team never competed after that.Good call coach B let em stand there when you've got the lead.Go Hornets lets get a home game!!!!!!

Fulton is such a tight knit beautiful community with all the scenic subdivisions and such. And all those future college athletes growing up playing touch and one on one. I bet the snow in the trees is athing of beauty today!!!

Hmmmm still no interest. Man I remember before post 11 era you could fill this thing up talking about Carter Football.Have the Hornets become back page news????

Where is the Hornets in all these passing leagues?? Are we doing it in secrecy? We have 2 capable QBs would this not be good practice?? Is 3rd year of life after 11 going to be any better??

Well its the guy who likes to refer to the current era at the nest as the life after 11 years.Just give me a little explanation.As I was looking at the prep extra stats this week I noticed that Carter had 3 or 4 players in the top 20 or so in tackles.Is this D not giving up about 50 or so a game? When are we tackling them on the way to the bus after the game? 2 years into this era not so good.

Carter fans wont be posting.Take all the shots you want to.

Where is Happy Valley and Cherokee when you need em. Union County you got to be kidding me.

I guess I enjoy talking to myself.I thought since, as you guys like to refer to them The Stanton Boys were gone,I could go watch Carter and leave in good spirits regardless of what I witnessed.Did I see once again we get mad and use a TO with the clock running out at the end of the 1st Qtr YES I DID,did I see with 2:09 remaining in the game and Hardin Valley facing a must onside kick situation Carter put 4 guys no hands guys on the front line (man if they kicked it deep we were ready)YES I DID,and did I see Hardin Valley lining up a kicker that had just missed an extra point to win the game getting ready to go for the tie and Carter calling TO to say hey are you sure you shouldn't go for 2 here(which they did decide to do and won)YES I DID. And did I see players laying on the field after 6 straight plays alowing HV to drive while using no TO's to cut Carter's lead in the 4th(if your hurt stay down if you got a cramp and you need the clock to run get to sideline and lay down) YES I DID.Hey its only a high school football game. And the good thing about the Stanton Boys being gone is don't have to go.The kids deserve better than what they got Friday nite, but I've been saying that for sometime now and I got over it a whole lot quicker last night.But finding ways to pull defeat out of the jaws of victory is something I hope never get used to.As I said after this game last year this is SAD.

Well I guess anything to talk about has left the bldg.Thats sad!!!!!!

Edge,Chill and Wingman the last I checked the Stanton boys are in the history books of Carter High they cant get no more W's for the Green Machine.Has the the Hornets nothing going on that we can talk about in the present.Heck the jamboree write-up was about the basketball team.Give some info on this years team I know what happened when the Stanton's were playing its all over my walls and in my trophy cases at home.How are we going to do this year? Give me something I can watch for on Friday nite is the QB Kirkland or does Oglesby get a shot this year? Can we get the ball to the BBallers?Who is the Runningbacks? Come on lets look forward not back can we get more wins this year than last?

Adding Bennett and Ballinger cant hurt the cause both are good athletes. A few years back we added a guy named Lance Thompson(state champ in the 200)we thought we could just put him in run down the field and wahla TD's not the case we need to set these guys up.And as for the info on scrimmages I now understand Cherokee-Happy Valley-Cocke County not much info here I heard Harlan Ky. was looking.See you at Hardin Valley we are already in their history books for 1st victory ever, man that was bad.Go Hornets.

Man talk about under the radar!!! All scrimmages listed in paper I don't see the Green Machine listed??? And heard a guy from CAK talking about getting put in this tougher claasification and he said with teams like GP and some others but no mention of my beloved Hornets. Isn't this the same program that just a few years back went years in a row without a district loss? Is it that life after 11 thing I spoke of last year?(Next one just starting kindergarten we can't wait that long good group starting to come thru now) Somebody give an update scrimmage dates or something.

Well I'm kind of like Old Turtle I haven't been on here in so long but I have to weigh in on this one.Pryor had to be handcuffed at Fulton last year after some little kid from Carter put up 18 in the 4th to send the #1 ranked Roadrunners to the house.Seems as though he thought it was some window in the locker rooms fault when it was actually that #11 not the window that sent you home. Bottom line is this kid should have been let go last year.Was it just coincidence that his first game this year was at Carter.Coach Mitchell has to ultimately be responsible for his team and next in line is the AD and then the administration.Is this what a MAGNET school is supposed to be??? There is just NO EXCUSE for this AE athletics is quickly becoming a JOKE.

Yes Solomon that was Brett's senior year that was his second of two all-state years and the year he broke the KIL All-Time passing record and at last check that ranked #3 all time in the TSSAA.Like I said stop by meet these guys ther not as thug as you make them out to be.

WOW great finally a response from somebody.All I was doing is repeating what a long time Carter coach told me that Carter only wins when certain families(not just 11's)comes back thru the program and though I strongly disagreed to this point he has been spot on.Coach Woods likes to win that is why he has handled #4 as he has this year you want guys with a little spunk or some would call it heart as a Carter assistant said on his way to the car after the Gibbs game.Hey I've got to give #4 credit he wears white shoes I think Mr. Woods told me that would never happen as long as he was coach.And just like all 11's from this family he is captain.Carter has a chance to be strong again beginning in 2011 or 2012 lets prove that longtime coach wrong noone from team 11 can get back thru that soon.Hey and if your so up to date on all Solomon the next 11 plays flag every Sat morn and yes all previous 11 will be out there come by and maybe they will toss you a souvenier.By the way on serious note is Carter getting a wild card?????

Carter don't have me puzzled.In our down years we could take Gibbs this program is in ruin.Until this year I had not missed many Carter games in the last 30yrs I attended 2 this season and I left early at both.Life after 11 crashed sooner than expected.Hey but look at the bright side we will be back in about 10yrs we can win again then.

OH MY GOODNESS YOU HAVE GOT BE TO KIDDING ME!!!!!! Rock solid line,Not getting the credit we deserve I could go on and on.All I can say is what I witnessed on Friday night in Strawplains was a joke. I knew life after 11 was going to tough but there is no EXCUSE for this.

Has Carter dropped football? Are we back to the back pages again? Have we scrimmaged? Don't tell me we got beat by Cherokee.Hey give me some info here. And tell me how we can get in a fight in passing league.I'm sure if you ask enough last years QB had to have started it somehow.Surely it is at least 5 games isn't it.

Indiangiver come on now you don't have to like me but lets not get stupid here. All State,All Region,Team MVP's NOT VERY GOOD.I don't vote for these awards. But anyway it was a lot of fun while it lasted.And quit cryin you make very valid points when it comes to coaches it is a lot BS for not much $$$. And fyi if it is important to you some of us bleacher coaches have that degree you speak of.TA TA

Let's see roughly a min to go AE with no time-outs 3rd or 4th down 20+yds to go.Well I think what we should do here is put 11 players within 5 yds of the ball have a guy in the middle that wants to play linebacker let Jones run un molested in the middle for six(watch the film I may be a little off on the details)Remember what I said earlier that Carter only wins the game when there is a decided talent difference GREAT EXAMPLE.Oh and by the way the players blew the coverage was supposed to be in cover 6 and was in cover nothing or something like that.I guess the players got in the same coverage on the screen pass against AC another great example of what I said earlier and a 1pt play-off loss.Sometimes its simple just back-up a few yards keep 11 of the opposite color in front of you.Like I said the window is closing quickly.

When I said sub 6 i mean't under 6 seconds and yes we have had two of the last 3 that could go 4.6.

Stopped by Spring practice 1 time. Put a pink green red yellow or whatever color jersey on Meady if he goes down its OVER. As the Big Green enters into the new era which we will refer to for next little while as LIFE AFTER 11 it has not started so well losing Smith didn't need to happen. For the last 7 years the 1 thing that Coach Woods had the luxury of was a QB that could manage to run 6 miles per night to get plays from the sideline and adjust enough to make them work(B Stanton-M Bounds-L.Stanton)seems to be quite a bit of uncertainty at this position heading into the season the word I'm getting is that Coach W has him a transfer that runs a sub 6 40 to hand it to Meady.With the schedule that has been put together IF MEADY STAYS HEALTHY Carter can win 7. The window is closing on Carter having a talent edge on the teams in their region and if history is correct as it usually is Carter only wins the games that they have a decided talent advantage in. Those will be become fewer over the next 3 yrs.GO HORNETS!!!!!

Turtle you are wrong about me sending one of mine to a Prep school for athletics purposes. We had that decission to make with the the older one involving football.To be honest with you the feedback we got from people that had chosen to do this wasn't very positve.It seems that most that go this route have to do it for reasons other that athletics(and NO I am not saying this is the case with Lopez he seems to be class act and great player) if this decision is not totally 100% the kids it will not work out good.Hey if we had chosen the other way maybe there would have been more athletic offers but it has worked out for us.Good luck to Brandon
