  1. 42-7 2nd half all Elizabethton. Those big guys up front for Northview got tired.
  2. Son on the Middle School Team and I'm sure he still has a lot of pull with organizations that use Axis.
  3. They had to keep the cowbell out of the stadium. Some fans didn't get the word and when they rang them during the game Axis came into the stands to remove the kid from the stadium however Mr Steve Grindstaff who has a son and grandson playing told them they weren't taking that kid anywhere. After a radio conversation. They left.
  4. DB actually hired a private security company to keep the cowbells out of the stadium. They told one fan they would escort him out of the stadium until Mr Grindstaff stood up and said you will not take him anywhere. The security guy left.
  5. Any Sunday, Monday, or Tuesday is open on our schedule between now and the end of the season. Put up or shut up..as a matter of fact the only team in this area that has an open date the same week as Elizabethton is none other than Daniel Boone and guess what. They are afraid and refuse to play Elizabethton.... Explain that Sigmund Freud....
  6. First Daniel Boone was Afraid to even play Elizabethton and now Dobyns-Bennet is Afraid of Cow Bells and have banned them from the Stadium. It hurts those poor little babys...boo hoo...
  7. That's exactly what I saw almost every position is 2 to 3 deep and they don't miss a beat no matter who's in. Heck I think 4 played almost every position on the field. WR, Halfback, TE, Slot, Defense End, corner, LB. I think center and QB were the only two he didn't play...
  8. If DB was smart they wouldn't take a chance on Hurd getting hurt in this one. Elizabethton's D is big and physical. One hit from ether Defensive ends, and it's lights out on his season. They may go with the QB from Union.
  9. Heck our sophomore QB was 14 of 17 and 246. Maybe Coach Prime should invite him to Colorado...threw one in stride about 50 yards in the air.
  10. The East QB has over 1700 yards passing. #1 in the state by far. How does Elizabethton stop that passing attack? Elizabethton's defense hasn't let to many teams score when they did there were a lot of 2's on the field. Could be in for a challenge. Elizabethton's D has a lot of INTs could be a chance to rack up some more.
  11. If Elizabethton had a good old boy system then Gib would have been our starting QB seeing his dad played at Elizabethton and was the VP of the TD club. Gib is a great athlete but he's a dropkick QB. Not the Rollins type of QB that fits Whittens Offense like the 2 sophomores. And as far as drawing kids from the Country Schools our Jr High has 90 kids playing. Hasn't lost but a few games in the past 10 years. We don't need to pull from them. 2 years ago Hampton, Cloudland and Elizabethton were all in the semifinals. If anything it was our kids going to those schools that helped that.
  12. Mother Nature? I can't believe some of you people trying to put the blame on Betsy...when you all know Daniel Boone Coach's could not give up their UT tickets play football. They made every excuse it the book to get out of being embarrassed on live TV. There is no reason they could not play on a Monday or Tuesday like Greeneville. The weather has nothing to do with this. Mother nature is not causing the Boone from making up this game. darn right people get upset when these kids work their butts off and grown men can't give up their personal time to do the right thing and play the contracted game they were scheduled to play. When thousands of dollars are taken out of our program. They don't care about the kids and really need to evaluate wheather they are even cut out for their job. Maybe teaching home economics is better suited for them. It they are allowed to get away with this then it sets a precedent all over the state. When you have a down team and you don't want to play a better team. Heck then we just won't play. It's not a regional game so it doesn't count. Our band members worked their butt off all summer to defend their State Championship and they don't get to preform at a home game until October. Look at all the memories those Boone Coach's have caused them to lose. If Elizabethton ever schedules Boone in any sport again it's not going to be pretty around here...it doesn't matter how many games the Betsy Admin scheduled when teams don't show up to play them..
  13. How? That's the stupidest thing ever. BOONE SHOULD HAVE PLAYED WEST THE NEXT DAY LIKE THEIR CONTRACT SAID. ELIZABETHTON CONTRACT WITH BOONE SAYS WE PLAY TOMORROW IF THE GAME GET RAINED OUT TONIGHT. SO EXACTLY HOW DID BETSY MESS UP? NO WONDER YOU LOSE 30-0 TO A TEAM BETSY WHIPPED.
  14. Band parents are very upset when thousands of dollars are taken out of their program because a couple of Daniel Boone coaches had tickets to the TN football game...
  15. 30-0 you can see why Boone didn't want to play Elizabethton...maybe a little hazing would help.
  16. Elizabethton has scheduled Alcoa and Anderson County as regular season games over the past few years.
  17. Dear brightest bulb, the Elizabethton v Daniel Boone game didn't get rained out. Heck it's not even scheduled to be played until this Friday it was CANCELED BY BOONE IN VIOLATION OF THE CONTRACT...It was the Boone v Mo West game that got rained/lightninged out. When did their contract say they would play in case of rain? I bet a dime to a donut it wasn't the following Thursday Night Canceling all the other games. The Boone Coach's decided it on the fly like the press article said. They had to many kids and coaches going to the TN game so Saturday didn't work for them and Sunday would not work for Mo west. If the contract with Elizabethton says in case of rain out they play Saturday, so is Boone going to play Saturday? They made up all the confrence games take priority... it says that nowhere... they both could have taken a no contest if they could not have played in accordance with their contact. There are provisions for ties in confrence play. They use the coin flip.
  18. "The reschedule date is supposed to be predetermined and part of the contract" Where would you find that bill snuff in the contract?
  19. You really don't know what you are talking about. Here is the official TSSAA contract. It says can only be canceled by mutual agreement. Elizabethton did not Agree. Daniel Boone is even refusing to pay the $5000 agreed forfit amount. Each contract is for 2 years one home game and one away. BOONE COACHS MADE THIS DECISION100% ON THEIR OWN. https://acrobat.adobe.com/link/review?uri=urn:aaid:scds:US:70c51cad-18af-309a-bdf3-ff2d7a93dbbe TENNESSEE SECONDARY SCHOOL ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION Official Contract for Athletic Contests This CONTRACT is made and subscribed by the Principals of the 1.

Otherwise, this contract cannot be cancelled except by mutual agreement or by authority of the TSSAA Board of Control. CON-01
  20. Actually there is a 10 year waiting list for Cyclone Season Tickets and they just added another 1000 seats to Citizens Bank Stadium.
  21. So, well then, let's play Monday or Tuesday like Mo West and Greeneville... it's the Daniel Boone Coach's who can't miss their tiddlywink contest they have to watch. Instead of playing their football game. https://www.elizabethton.com/2023/09/12/weather-havoc-tssaa-needs-to-address-scheduling-issues-with-weather-postponed-games/?fbclid=IwAR3bodTlTvQgFYw0-VaqM1smxD6ATTNAvVnv4eKKH1MSMsRiERxRN7KlAwQ
  22. At that time MO WEST hadn't stepped up and will play Greeneville on Tuesday. There is nothing stopping Daniel Boone from doing the same except for FEAR.... 67,600 Elizabethton 67,600 Greeneville >$100k Popcorn was an example now add drinks, hotdogs, cowtails, pickles, hamburgers, programs, t-shirts, seat cushions, cowbells, corn dogs, candy bars, most folks spend way more than $5 at a Cyclone Football game. That makes our season tickets $22 per game. None of that revenue comes to our programs thanks to the coaches at Daniel Boone. They are even refuseing to pay the $5000 contract Daniel Boone had for the game and are demanding they get to keep their home game against Elizabethton next year instead of playing it in Elizabethton. TSSAA needs to hold them accountable l. They are hurting the kids and the other programs that depend on that revenue.
  23. Booger not very good at math'en....... 5200 seats in Elizabethton almost always sold out especially the first game of the season especially 4-0, especially ranked #2 in the state at $8 and if everyone gets a $5 box of popcorn. Math.....
