You are correct. It's a rumor until announced. Stay tuned next week for a Stevens resignation and move to Knoxville. Ole Dad

Well Oldtimer, my "Propaganda" is factual. Maybe you should keep up a little closer. And you are correct about Oak Ridge winning when I am gone and they will win again when Stevens is gone. Ole Dad

I don't know if Stanton has anything to do with the Learning Center. I would expect that he is tired of Oak Ridge by now and will resign this week to take a position in Knoxville at a high school. Ole Dad

Just funnin around. He is the legendary OR coach that the stadium is named after. I think, Rankin, Gattis, Willingham, Madden, Spurrier, Pete Carroll or a couple of others may be acceptable to most OR faithful. Ole Dad

Jack Armstrong

Tn, I think it's done, but you are correct, we just have to wait and see. http://www.oakridger.com/localnews/x453210...-at-high-school Ole Dad

Are you referring to me? I never professed to knowing everything that is going on, but I evidently know more on this one subject than you do. Maybe some Mommies and Daddies will post some facts...I'm sure some of them know as well. Ole Dad

Don't be sandbagging us, more like 55. Ole Dad

I think the asst. head coach will be named interim head coach. If Bailey had not been on vacation this past week it is likely that Oak ridge would have already had a new coach. Ole Dad

I believe you have seen Stevens coach his last game and he will be replaced early next week. Details will be released by the media I'm sure. Others may want to release details, but I prefer to wait and hear the official release. Ole Dad

Stevens leaves Oak Ridge with a loss. New coach will have to rebuild. Ole Dad

StantonGate may be the end of Coach Stevens. May see his departure next week. Ole Dad

Let's see how the OR coach does tonight.I wish him good fortune, but I'm not optimistic. Ole Dad

Yep, Bailey and Green want Stanton to be the coach no matter if he is 0-10 (which could come in the future if he stays around). Bailey said to people who post on here that OR fans expectations are too high and OR football is not important. Ole Dad

Bailey and Green are in charge of this particular stuation and have told Chuck and Mullins to stay out of the way. When it all comes down watch Bailey and Green duck and blame it on Chuck and Mullins. Ole Dad

You're full of Dung. I have no vendetta against Stevens. He may be a great person, but he is terrible as the head coach of Oak Ridge. That's all I am commenting on here about. I haven't even posted on here in a few weeks. I have just been letting the rest of you figure out what most of us already knew. I have a desire to bring a coach to Oak Ridge that will exert the effort required to have the type of program that great coaches before him/her built. I don't care if the coach is red, black, yellow or purple or a man or a woman as long as they work towards maintaining the Oak Ridge tradition. I believe that LOD said it best, "the only race issue that Stevens is having trouble with is the race to the Gold Ball." Ole Dad

He said it and that's a fact and they will tesify to it. It's not a rumor, it's the facts. Ole Dad

JamJay, The point of my comments were that back in the summer all the posters on here that correctly predicted that Stevens was unprepared and was a terrible excuse for a coach and the season would be a disaster were lambasted by a bunch of mommies and daddies who said we were not true Oak Ridge fans and should be supporting the "kids." Now all those mommies and daddies are seeing Stevens tru colors (and I don't mean that racially Stevens) and are figuring out their kids coach is unqualified, uninterested and an unintelligent coach. Now, since things have turned bad he is threatning to play "The Race Card." What a chump. Nothing against mommies and daddies....I are one. Ole Dad QUOTE (Ole Dad @ Sep 29 2008 - 05:55 PM) What do all you Mommies and Daddies think about the wonderful leader of a coach now? How about if I told you that your beloved Coach Stevens has been telling people in authority after the Clinton loss that if they think they can fire him, "he will play the race card." What a guy with class. Bailey and Green will get what they deserve in the end as they have to deal with this issue. I was wrong, Oak Ridge may win 4 games this year because Fulton was much worse than I thought they would be ffrom graduation losses. Ole Dad Ole Dad, Just one question, and not to be disagreeable, but how do you know all the stanton supporters are mommys and daddys? i would tend to think that they are not. So while you are right on with what you are saying i think that blaming the m's and d's is not right on. They are probably just as unhappy as everyone else. think about it. or are some of the supporters on here moms and dads and you know more than i do? jsut don't group them all together.

Bubba said Clinton will lick Oak Ridge. Ole Dad

Opie, Is there any truth to the rumor that Clinton has hired "Dusty Rhodes" to protect their team, coaches and fans from Stanton? Nothing like having the "American Dream" on your side. Of course, i think Stanton may be more of a boxer than a wrasler. You may win the game, but I'm pretty sure Stanton can take Andy in the rematch for the aftergame title. Ole Dad quote name='Opie Shaggnasty' date='Sep 22 2008 - 08:45 AM' post='826864365'] Clinton will be ready for all attacks from the mildcats.Cute andy is also ready to battle stanton s after the game.Clinton will make the mildcats like it.Just as much as they liked mine and ollies paint job at their place a couple of years back.

That's Junior High crap. "The refs cost us the game!" Did you see the score? You got thumped. Take that trash back to Heritage and tell it to your Boy's Club coach. They may buy that trash, but don't make yourself look like an idiot in front of knowledgable football fans. Ole Dad

That is Nic Williams that has been coming on at running back for West in the last two games. Only a Junior, but has looked good on a couple of long breakaway touchdowns over the past couple of weeks. He looks like he could be really good, but just needs to block better and stay engaged when he is not carrying the ball. Ole Dad

Yep Ole Turtle has never been to an Oak Ridge game, but is chairman of SOS (save Ole Stanton). He is quick to give advice to Oak Ridge fans on supporting the coach, but if it was an Old Fat White Guy you would see his true colors in reverse discrimination. He's probably one of those "Fire Fulmer" guys. "Support your coach at all costs, as long as I think he is a good guy." Isn't that funny? Not Ha Ha funny, but ironic funny. Ole Dad

Based on what they have both done this year in the previous three games, it may be a scoreless tie unless Saunder's boys return one. Ole Dad
