STILLNUM1

Just went by the ship and the endzones are looking good.Roll Wildcats Roll.Blade ready to turn it up and make a playoff run.Under Coach Blade Oak Ridge looks like a new team when the playoffs start and I cant wait to see Blankenship at its best Friday night.If Oak Ridge can catch the ball they win a close one.Fight till the gun and get Atomic city pumped.All the way turned up

Please dont go crazy Oak Ridge fans if they dont look great to start the year.Coach Blade waits untill the 4th or 5th game of the year before he plays guys both ways.Very few willl c both ways untill then.Our O and D-line will look alot different in a month or so.It helps with cramps and other injuries and also gets alot of good playing time for more kids.Oak Ridge would have beat Farragut by 20 plus if they would have played again in the playoffs last year.Roll Cats and pack that place wit ridgers

He couldnt start practice untill 1st day of school for some reason but I heard Blade was really impressed.Just talk to someone who said he has been playing wr,QB,LB but is a better QB than anything

Dont know why it put a line through my post

Has any body got to watch practice since school started?I heard they have a Texas transfer who is really good.(JR).Go Cats

Go Cats!I hope they dont have the same PA guy.I was so sick of hearing I CANT HEAR YOU over and over trying to get the Cookville fans going.I also remember one of the worst calls ever when they called pass int on Cville and moved the chains for Oak Ridge.All we had to do was take a knee 3 times but the cookville coach kept yelling at the ref and they moved the chains back and waved the flag.Just glad our d stopped em.

Thats Funny because I told someone 2nite I bet thats how they scored that much on Powell.I think every player for Oak Ridge got some playing time and Karns was giving heck tryin to score wit the starters.It was 35-0 after 3qtr

Not even close.Karns has a long way to go b4 they can play wit da Cats.Karns got lucky Blade wanted to rest The Z man or it would have been alot worse.Oak Ridge played everybody and what was up wit Karns playing the starters the whole game and calling timeouts with 2 mins left and 30 or 40 secs to go in the game.Did the coach for Karns wanna make it look like a game or what.Oak Ridge showed alot of mercy and thats how he repays them.Good try Karns but u shouldve known better than to think u could play wit da big boyz.

The Boyz really loved the pregame fireworks and as a fan I thank the Mavs for gettin the boyz fired up.And the greatest show on turf was once again shut down by the Cats.Blade showed Class by not scoring wit bout 3 mins left and the cats are ready to roll in to da playoffs.With Elliot and Rian at RB and Brad back, Oak Rigde will run the table.Go Cats and congrats on whats gonna be another County Chip.Man I loved Oak Ridge goin out to midfield to greet the mavs when they came out.

Take away Mobley and powell would be lucky to win 6 games.Oak Ridge has went 4 years without a big time threat and really because ss killed the program but be ready because thats all Oak Ridge is missing.You put Demarcus Rodgers on this team and they would be 9-1 goin into the playoffs.We had that tallent just 4 years ago when we won a game on kick and punt returns(3) vs fulton.We havent returned a kick or punt for a TD in atleast a year and a half.But dont jump off a bridge because Oak Ridge is that one beast away from being great.Wait and see.But if u are a REAL Oak Ridge fan stay postive and support the team.If your not than I understand hating on em.

Yeah but a big diff in losing your schools all time passing leader and 3 year starter than Clintons QB.I thought they could pull it off at halls and when they didnt I found out they would need mick vick to win 5 games with that team.

No, more than likely it will be Jaylen Henderson.Jaylen is the real deal and would be out there playing this year(somewhere,not QB) if he didnt miss all summer.Also Elliot is a great QB and i would say him if not for being such a great linebacker and our number one man on d.Rian is to good of a RB to not play there.He will really be a stud by years end.He switched spots with Moore and had to learn the slot the last couple off weeks and just hasnt spent any time learning the QB spot since early summer.Also i just heard brads out for the next 1 to 2 weeks but not for sure yet why.Thats all i was texted.Brad had 40 plus on the ground and 104 yds passing b4 he got hurt.There is no doubt he would have been the diff in the second half.I look foward to watchin the cats learn and get better.Just imagine what Blade could do with a Rb like Mobley.The best is yet to come as long as Blade stays in the ridge

Good game for the cats.Just like all of Blades team do ,they get better every week.Rian and Matt get better with every run and our defense has made huge strides.Hope Brad is ok.Rian didnt know many plays from the QB side of things and we had to run about the same 3 plays the whole 2nd half.Last I heard it was brads kidney and he is still at the hospital.That offsides killed us from powell and gave away our play.Ive never seen so many holding calls in my life.Be ready wildcat fans cause the cats will make another playoff run.They are way ahead of where they was last year at this time.Some many chances to put powell away and just couldnt do it.Big ups to Rian for playing RB,QB,WR,CB,KR AND breaking 48 tackels.Powell better have fun this year cause they lose alot.

If Oak Ridge will run the ball more it will be a great year.Blade is too good of a defensive coach for the d to not get better every week.Oak Ridge will run for 4,6,4,15,5,4,8 yds and then throw a pic.All of last year and so far this year they are trying so hard to make the passing game number one.Brad will never be a down the feild passer and he is to good of a runner to keep throwing all the time.When we came back on Brad Cent last year it was bc we pounded it down the feild.Matt Moore will be a great back if he gets the ball more than every 5 or 6 plays.This is still a young team thats getting better every day and thats what its about.And remember to all those people who act like Oak Ridge will never have talent like it use to is crazy.It was just 2005 when they had enough talent for 5 state chips.And the 2 years after that had twice as much talent as this team.We are a Running back away from being really good and blades system pays off with time.Its not a quick fix

Everybody keep goin crazy over 1 game.Blade runs a 2 platoon and for that reason the team will get better every week.He aint gonna scrap everything they worked on all summer for one win.Stick with your guns and watch everyplayer get better because of it.Anybody who thinks they know more about coaching on here than blade is crazy.I have watched him turn this program from the worst i have ever seen it and take them to the semis.He still hasnt had a team with half the talent as most teams Oak Ridge has had in the past.Wait and see what happens in the playoffs this year.Oak Ridge will be ready when it counts.

Im happy the super sophs are back.They got some bad advice from a bad adult.I know Jay and Kevin are good kids and will earn their way back.Dont know the other kid though.Blade dont take no bull and I trust him all the way with stuff like this.Go Cats.Look for R.Gray to have a huge year.

Oak Ridge 13 Alcoa 7.Oak Ridge was on about the 10 or 15 goin in for the touchdown when they called it for bad weather.Im not sure if the varsity was goin to try and play anymore after the storm passed.Zullinger was very sharp passing the ball and got one tipped and picked on about the 10yd line but other than that Oak Ridge looks better on offense than they have in a long time.The D looks great but no suprise.Rian Hall looks better with every carry.I also like how many new young guys are looking good and the wr that came over from basketball looks good.I was hearing Matt Moore wasnt gettin many carries because he is the secret weapon but dont know if that is true.He did look great when he got the ball.Each team had the ball 4 to 6 times before the storm came.Anybody who stayed and watched the jv let me know

Very true.How bout the Frank kid at grace that was up for mr football.His parents own that deli or whatever in Oak Ridge.Do they live in Oak Ridge.What a line OR wouldve had if it wasnt for SS.

The kid from Florida is a unreal LB and i dont know if he plays offense but they said he is getting d1 looks as a soph this year.It will come down to if his uncle and aunt get custody of him and he wants to be with them.I will ask if its ok to give his name out.The one from down the road might just be a rumor but one of the OR players said he would be enrolling after Christmas so wait and c.GO CATS

Oak Ridge will have crazy good team.Rocky will be easy to replace.He never had great games against good teams and didnt break many tackles or long runs.The offense will be loaded and there will be 4 GREAT sophs next year that will have breakout years.The D returns 2 starting DTS(T.Jarnigan,D.Williams).Normand,Mears,Ingam at LB(Card will be missed).A great CB in Hall and Saft(Gholston).Hull played everything from LB to Saft.There is 2 new guys coming to the ridge and one is from florida and one from down the road.Blade told the guys at church he wasnt going nowhere and his family loves it here.Be ready because the cats are back and there was 48 players working out when i went by the weight room Tues THE CATS ARE BACK FROM THERE 5 YEAR BREAK AND THEY ARE HERE TO STAY

Andy is a good coach.Clinton has never been good year after year.Its Clinton,not Oak Ridge.We have never won a state chip in any sport.I dont think you should ever expect Clinton to be good more than once every 8 years or so.Leave the coach alone.

Proud of the Cats.Thanks for a great year.A very young team who never quit and always would bring the pain win or lose.What a year 2011 can be.Cant wait to see how good Normand will be as a JR and how much Zullinger improves for his last go at it.Oak Ridge is BACK and as long as Blade is coach its not goin to change.Also would like to think Maryville for being such a great host.Very nice people and great coaches who do it the right way.Go bring back that chip to East TN

I know most of the Rdale fans wasnt bein stupid so this is for everyone else.Rdale is a Great team and has nothing to be ashamed of.And like Oak Ridge Rdale will never be a cupcake.

Thanks 4 being nice to us.People like u should never be allowed to post again.U and your cupcake buddys need to get a new hobby.Well maybe u should be allowed to post on that Maryville/Rdale thread and talk about cupcakes and how rdale won 49 to 7

Good call loser
