It isn't helping that Ooltewah is on, at least their third head coach since last season, The OHS coach is only 28, but is an alum. Things will get better

First of all, before I had a stroke in August 2014, I was involved in the football and basketball programs at Ooltewah High School for 30 years. Two people who have replied in this thread know who I am face to face (baconbreath and RedRebels) I don't know everything about what is going on, the authorities in Sevier County knows the most of anybody. On hardships, kids can transfer from failing schools and if the school doesn't offer a particular subject, they can transfer to a school that does. Ooltewah offers German, not too many schools offer that. There maybe more things, but that is one that I do know. In regards of the case, I'm gonna let the authorities in Sevier County fill me in what is going on. Everything else out there is conjecture at this point. I'm not defending these actions, but any comments from me is just my opinion and I don't know enough to comment.

I don't ever expect that game to happen as long as Jim Jarvis is Ooltewah's principal. Too many hard feelings from previous match ups.

Well that is 3 schools that have stadiums that are condemned in Chattanooga/ Hamilton County, East Ridge home, Tyner's visitor side, and Howard's visitor side. Add a fourth in Sale Creek Middle/High School not even having a field. HCDE doesn't provide funding for nothing...

That 4A green school on Ooltewah-Ringgold Rd.

Or Friendsville, Everett, or Eagleville???

Why, are they from Maryville? Or Townsend?

Supposed to be neutral refs in the playoffs unless both teams use the same officials association. These two teams aren't in the same association.

Thackerson scores for Clinton in the last minute, 40-21, Owls

It's Exit 11, not 111, get it right PA...

To paraphrase the Wu-Tang Clan, Ooltewah's defense is "Nothin' to F*** With"

41-0 Owls, final

Well it is 41-0 midway through the 3rd quarter

Funny, Rhea Co. uses the same officials association as Bradley Central and McMinn Co. (Athens), Cleveland uses Chattanooga refs. Playoff refs are from neutral association, unless the two competing schools use the same association.
