Who will replace Coach Austin? Moore County High School is seeking a Head Football coach to oversee a football program with a proud tradition. Positions are available to begin as early as February 15th. Physical Education and social studies endorsements are preferred, but all endorsement areas will be considered. As the middle school football program is located on the same campus, the head coach can have direct impact on the only feeder program in the district. Moore County High School is seeking an enthusiastic coach ready to develop players into young men who will be successful on and off the field. Visit mcdoe.net for more information. Contact Wendy Hart, Athletic Director: wendy.hart@mcdoe.net or Chuck Tracy, Principal:

Polls are out! Moore co #6! Forrest unranked. Like Scott Smith said last year this one won't be close. Forrest doesn't have a prayer.

Last year Moore Co. went into this game ranked #1. The rockets completely shut the raiders down.  I don't think the raiders have forgotten that game. Scott Smith is no longer coach at Moore Co. and Coach Austin will need a good game plan just to keep it close with the rockets. The rockets win against cascade showed just how good they are this year.

Hornet's offense looks to be explosive.                                    http://www.heraldchronicle.com/p=13216

Binns Jordan, co-host of Sports Plus and high school football color analyst for the Tullahoma Wildcats on The Ticket sports radio, passed away Sunday, Feb. 9 at the age of 67. Binns battled cancer for almost a year before losing the fight around 9 p.m. surrounded by his family and close friends. Binns loved High School football and was devoted University of Tennessee football fan.
 

Jeremy Austin Promoted to Head Football Coach at Moore County!

Great choice. Congrats to Coach Austin.

Better not forget about #3 Trey Emmons. Might not be real big but he is quick as a cat and can get the job done.The freshman back (also an Emmons) is not bad either.

Are they any relationship to Fayetteville's assistant coach Bobby Emmons. I remember when Bobby Emmons played at the old Fayetteville Central. He was a good running back and then later played for the University of Tennessee.

I though Mac was on his way back up as a coach, after going through some tough times in 2010. But....I guess you make your own bed and then you have to sleep in it.

He was 19-5 at Marion and 239-71 overall
as head coach.

Sure am thinking about it but my wife is wanting to go see the new Hunger Games movie and deer season opens Saturday. Don't guess I will get there. Back to the reason for the new high school in Fayetteville. It seems the one that asked the question said something about Lincoln County's long history of success. I was told by a person inside the Fayetteville school system that he felt the move for a City high school was due, in part, to the fact that Lincoln County was not competing on a high level and has not for a number of years. It was said that Fayetteville wanted to win state championships. A lot of people around here have said if you give Fayetteville a couple of years, they would be like South Pittsburg. That says a lot for y'all's program. 

I agree with your comment about winning State Championships. I use to live in Fayetteville and was there when the Schools consolidated. The talk was then about winning Championships. And I have also heard the same about the new City High School. With open enrollment it will be easier to win a Championship in class 1A than probably any other division.

There you go with that open enrollment stupidness again. 

You just don't want to admit that open enrollment is a advantage, but it is. Fayetteville City High School, will have the same advantage. This is from the Fayetteville City School website. REMEMBER: YOUR CHILD IS ELIGIBLE FOR ANY SPORT AT FAYETTEVILE HIGH, EVEN IF THEY PARTICIPATED AT NGA OR ANY K-8 COUNTY SCHOOL LAST YEAR. THIS IS ACCORDING TO TSSAA RULES. I say this this is similar to the advantage that Private Schools have over Public schools.

Humm! Now lets see. Two teams that have never played each other in the playoffs. South Pittsburg's enrollment 249. Fayetteville City enrollment 262. Both School's have open enrollment for there County and there Counties student athlete's can attend there School's. And because any kid and there parents want to be associated with a winning team that is a drawing point for both School's. Lincoln County has about 33,000 and Marion County has about 28,000. Both have Coach's that are very well liked and Coach Moore played for South Pitt and Coach Palmer played for the old Fayetteville Central High. Both teams have good speed and both School's have similar colors of black and orange. Looks like a new rivalry could be born between these two School's. This should be a good game. South Pitt will probably win by 2 touchdowns, but with 2 playoff wins under there belt, this bunch from Fayetteville City cannot be overlooked. The new Fayetteville City High School may not win this game but give them a couple of years and watch out!!!

Jasper should be giving thanks on Thanksgiving that The little South Pittsburg isn't any bigger. 

Does South Pittsburg have open enrollment for any student in Marion County to attend? I find it hard to believe that year after year a School with a enrollment of 249 can be that good with only local South Pittsburg kids. Every one wants to play for a winner. If this is true, as Marion County continues to improve, the shift of good talent could change.

Two of the strangest High School Football PAT plays I have ever seen.                                                                                                                                           

 A much needed win by the Raiders. Congrats to the team and coach's.

As I have said before. Cascade is going to be better this year than most people think. Cascade 41 Marshall County 34

MTCS is averaging about 32 points per game while Moore Co. has only scored 1 TD in 4 games.  Has MTCS ever beaten Moore Co?.. This might be the year.  Common opp has been Fayetteville.  Moore County won by 1 and MTSC lost by 16.  Is Moore County's glass half full or half empty.  Looks like 2 TD's will win this game.  Kicking game and special teams could be the difference.  On paper MTCS should have the edge.

MTSC beat Moore County in 2009 30-7 Will tonight be there 2nd win? I depends on which Moore County team shows up. Its homecoming for the Raiders, maybe they will come out fired up.

Hard to believe there is no posts on this game. I believe this game could go either way and should be a dandy! One thing for sure Cascade will be fired up, because they believe they can win.

AS I said before, Cascade was going to be better than most people thought. Moore County will have to play there best game in order to hang with the champions. Cascade's big tailback is a load.

First class post +1

I will come on and eat my crow. I said earlier in the week the MC was at a crossroad. They played inspired football last night. Hats off to them! They got after Fayettevilles offense all night and really pressured the QB. The Tiger D played yet another good game only holding MC to just 6 points. Our young team will learn from this and grow and mature from it. Good Luck to MC the rest of the season and it's always great to be a Tiger!!!

I went to school at Moore County. But I lived in Fayetteville mid 60's to late 70's Fayetteville-Lincoln County football fans are some of the best. Coach Palmer and the Tigers are the real deal. Congrats to Coach Smith and the Raiders for the hard fought win. These two teams will probably face each other again in the playoffs. Trivia question. Name 3 Moore County graduates that have coached in the Fayetteville School System. Billy Joe Evans was head coach and Bob Edens his assistant coach at Fayetteville Central. Max Raby was head coach at Fayetteville Jr. High for a number of years.

This is headed our way. But not forecast to arrive before 9:00pm.

Video from the Fayetteville and MTCS game. Fayetteville is very quick. Moore County will have there hands full with the Tiger speed.

I just want to know what the heck a "multiple trigger" offense is and no one can seem to tell me. Maybe it was a misprint.

You can buy Coach Smith's book, It will explain it.

What has happened to Moore County? They went from the penthouse to the outhouse. What's going on?

#1 ranking made the team and coach's over confident. Now is the time to generate some team discipline and leadership. With the coach's making the necessary adjustment's on offense and defense. This week will probably determine if they even make the playoffs.

Was Moore County overlooking Wayne County to the Fayetteville game? That's hard to say. The Raiders run game has been shut down the last two games. If they don't find a way to generate some offense, it will be a long night for them.
