The Drunken Sailor

So, my next question would be, do you think he's worth the wait?

Please tell me that he won't "be officially able to accept the job until the new school year starts" but he will be at least working with the team and leading them through workouts. Because if not, then I guess we're going to be having this conversation again next year. No one, at least no quality candidate, will want to come in that late.

A few things. First, the conversation has been going on for a loooong time. Second, with this cycle's numbers they would be 4A, not 5A. Third, with 10 appearances and 5 titles, I wouldn't call them the new kids on the block. Fourth, nope.

LOL, SP and Jasper share one thing ... Hate!

What else should be expected? 😁

Had Oakland. Apparently, so did Bambino. Thank you CoschT. It was fun again.

Forgetting to make my Baylor/McCallie pick in time might bite me in the backside.

Thanks ST, even though I sucked this year. I still have the big ones I guess.

This seems to be true.

You need to look at who all was doing most of that posting. More SP fans were picking MASE to win. Some thought we were sandbagging, but we could see it would be an uphill battle. It was mostly fans of other programs were saying all that you are talking about.

How many kids from Alcoa and Maryville did you recruit to help you make those picks? It's been a while since there's been a good Greenback recruiting thread. I figured I'd get that going as well.

And down the stretch they come ...

CHEATER!!! I mean, congratulations.

No need. The staff did a great job this year and the boys responded. Even though that's the goal every year, we weren't supposed to make it this far. The fact that we did absolves you and anyone else from blame. Besides, there were a few plays that could have been difference makers. If the one kid from MASE (Watson maybe?) Doesn't make that ridiculous, matrix adjustment to catch their first long throw, then they are looking at 4th and long and punting instead of getting a touchdown. If Cooper doesn't slip when he tries throwing the deep ball to Buckner, then you may be looking at 6 for the Pirates at a crucial time. There are more, but those two come to mind. The loss stings, as all of them do, but we will be back.

They didn't do it last year I don't think. They did in '21 though.
