I have been to GB football games for more than 50 yrs. - so needless to say I have seen several teams - over those years there have been some outstanding players - but by far the best team that has ever stepped on Cooper Field has been the '87 State Championship team - I say that because those kids were good at every position - there were no "stars" or wanna be "stars" - they were 11 kids that played like a well-oiled machine - they were tuff and selfless - they knew nothing but team - if one player got out of line, even during school, there would be a teammate in his face pushing him back in line - Coach Satterfield's greatest strength was his strength of motivation and those boys bought in to his plan and it took them to Cookeville and they won it all. I know this is a long post, but I just want our current team to know that the '87 team set the bar! I WISH THIS YEAR'S TEAM THE BEST - STAY HUMBLE, WORK HARD, RESPECT ONE ANOTHER, AND ENJOY THE RIDE!

Someone wake up the "Cherokeean" we have to get him fired up to talk pigskin! lol

what does the bracket look like for district 3 1-A? can't find it anywhere

Coach Hanley will handle the defense - he's quite capable - knows the game on both sides of the ball! played on the 87 State Championship team!

Josh Silvey is completely eligible now, got a hardship from TSSAA -

Greenback is going to be a power house this year in 1A - strong at key positions!
