Those games didn't cost thousands of dollars to other teams programs. Both got ticket sales and concessions though it may have been less. Boone and MW signed contracts to play those games. They default they need to reimburse Greeneville and Elizabethton. There is no excuse for them not to play Saturday or Sunday...NONE.

The coaches at Boone could not be bothered to give up their weekend planes to play a football game. Both games were home games for Elizabethton and Greeneville our Band makes $30 to $40K a game in concessions that's the only revenue for 300 kids playing in our band Program. Where is that money from their program going to come from? Season ticket holders now only have 3 games to watch. Banner sponsons only have 3 games who would pay $2000 a year for 3 regular season games. Both teams should be made to forfeit their games and play the games they contracted to play. Conference or no conference. They both can take a loss. TSSAA should make a rule that teams that have weather delays have 3 days to make it up without interfering with other contracted games or if other open dates allow play them then. This takes thousands of dollars out of Greeneville and Elizabethton Athletic programs that affect other sports that rely on that money. Maybe now other programs will have to be cut like Girls' Wrestling or volleyball, softball, No it's because 2 boneheaded coaches could not miss their NFL home ticket and play their football game.

They both knew this year they would be mudhole stomped with Greeneville and MO West and Elizabethton and Boone. It was both away games so it doesn't hurt their pockets. No band concessions for Elizabethton or Greeneville. No tickets sales. Sponsors paying money for just 3 home games. Tssaa should allow any playoff money to stay in Greeneville and Elizabethton to make up for those games or force MW and Boone to compensate for what they have done. The Boone Elizabethton was to be televised live and BOONE new what was waiting for them in Elizabethton and those yellow bellies didn't want any part of that on live TV.

Greeneville vs Morristown West game canceled?

After Elizabethton stomped Mo West and was to play Boone Friday and Greeneville Mo West. Those 2 schools found a way not to have to play and lose to two smaller 4A schools. So they cheat Greeneville and Elizabethton Seniors out of a football game. TSSAA needs to suspend both teams from post season play in all sports they threatened to do that to Unaka several years ago for them not having enough healthy kids to play. Or make both forfeit and play the games scheduled. Every other teams in the state played on Saturday or Sunday. TSSAA needs new leadership when they allow kids to be hurt. -
You are right seeing Mo West was to play Greeneville and Elizabethton had already stomped Mo West. Both teams sought to Avoid losing to two smaller 4A schools. Both should be suspended...it's not right for the seniors to have games taken away because Teams are afraid to play them. What good is TSSAA they need new leadership in allowing this.

Daniel Boone purposely change their game to the Thursday night before The Elizabethton Game to avoid playing Elizabethton. The Game was to be televised live and now leaves Elizabethton with just 3 home games. Just because coaches had vacation planes and didn't want to play on Saturday of Sunday or even Monday like every team in the state did. A couple of years ago Unaka High had injuries to the point that they couldn't play a playoff game and TSSAA threatened to suspend Unaka in post season in all sports. Same should be done to Daniel Boone.

No one cares about a blowout. Alcoa by as many as they want..2s in at the half.

He didn't look that impressive at The Bank. Didn't even score. https://www.elizabethton.com/2023/07/31/jr-cyclones-get-first-taste-of-contact-against-norris-senators/

When your team plays in 3 straight state championships. Maybe they will do it your way.
-
Let me pick the backups on any team against the ones on any team and I will insure you they will not score. The coaches know what they are doing.
-
Had better have it figured out by game 10...because you know who that will be this year....At the Bank..
-
I don't think Coach Whit will run up the score on Granger. We aren't Greeneville. He will get a lot of younger players in and probably not score over 40.

Looks like AC is 0-2 to start the year.

2021-4A Championship Game Tullahoma vs Elizabethton
CyclonePrider replied to TTownFan50's topic in Class 3A & Class 4A
Nope #10 is the best in Tennessee. Name one with more wins or more Touchdowns or more State Championships or less losses. -
2021-4A Championship Game Tullahoma vs Elizabethton
CyclonePrider replied to TTownFan50's topic in Class 3A & Class 4A
By far #10 for Elizabethton is the best football player in Tennessee. He is 43‐1 sa a starting QB. His football knowledge and decision making can't be taught. He reads blocks better than anyone you have ever seen. Has a great arm and is calm under pressure. He has a point to make to the sport writers for not selecting him for a third Mr Football it should have been his year. While the rest are sitting home Saturday he will be hoisting his third gold ball. Coaching will be Elizabethton strong points. They will adjust to anything thrown at them and the players will respond and execute. They have a game plan and time of possession will favor Elizabethton and they have played 4 quarters better hope the other team is in shape. The bring 2 State Championship game MVPs to the game and if you put to much emphasis on them the others will burn you. The oline is deep and big and will be helped by the big dline when needed. 4 year starters at guard and tackle. As far as the field goal and punting. Elizabethton hardly ever has to use them. Good luck to both teams, hope it's an injury free game and see ya in nooga.... -
