    Dang y'all are suprising me with being so high on Dyer. I like what Dyer is trying to do though and their coach seems solid. A little region 7 - 5A news. How about Fred Orr going to the Tennessee VOLS as a walk on? 

    Him and the LB walked on. from what I heard both kids got alot of money due to academics so that helped ALOT, but what a way to bet on yourself when you had for-sure offers.

    The local news said CA had 4, but NE had the Qb as a PWO at TSU, they had a LB and RB commit as PWO at UT. Plus a few lineman and others commit to some small colleges. I’m surprised Kenwood did not have any one to sign. 

    Yeah I thought Kenwoods RB (mayberry) was pretty legit so that's very surprising

    Son??  Really??  I believe we are all aware of what went on more so then you and what is being built.  

     

    Everyone who was close to the situation knows it was no paperwork error, but that's what he'll tell all the gallentin community! But with that being said he's a very good coach and it's a good hire you guys got yourself a football a coach who wants to win and that's one thing I can say about chad. Everyone recruits everyone just doesn't get caught so IMO let it go dude moved on took over a program with better support and facilities, he did what any coach would do and that's put yourself in a better position to be successful. Good luck to you all on rebuilding a rich tradition program.

    Coach Wright from Northwest resigns today. Who will be the new coach at Northwest?

    Hopefully they pick a good coach, they have good talent and great facilities there.

    Any chance WestCreek or anyone else in Clarksville get a new coach? 

    Everyone seen this coming from a mile away! Great guy but the atmosphere at the school is terrible it's gonna be a tough fill

  5. It's a shame that most of you are definitely wrong and blaming someone who had nothing to do with the reporting! Gary Sheppard definitely didn't turn in NE and those are facts 100000% as you can get! Do I know who did? yes! Will I say ?no!  But I'll tell you this NE has been recruiting players seen chad started there last year and it bit him in the ####! Now I feel sorry for the kids because they don't deserve this but when your a coach and you preach accountability then hold yourself to the same standards! Oh yeah and it was self reported after it was reported just so you know! It's a fact they will lose those forfeit those 5wins That's all I'm gonna say on this matter!

    I found out about the 'Grades' part at the end of the semester of my son's Freshman year.  He got a 'D' in one subject the final 6 weeks of his first semester.  I grounded him and told him NO practice until it was raised the next 6 weeks.  When the clone told Rankin, Rankin said no agilities, NO FOOTBALL and he was thrown off the team.  I said fine and I was transferring the clone to either Oakland or Eagleville.  Rankin told me HE would see that it would NOT happen.  After I got thru laughing I advised him to talk that over with the lawyer of the school board.  Rankin got told that yes because HE tossed the clone off the team that I could/would transfer my son where I wanted and that he COULD play football immediately.

    When you work directly for the Judges of the county you learn a little about rules and laws and threats.  I had talked it over with a couple of Judges and the Boards Lawyer before I told Rankin I was moving the clone.   It also did not hurt that I was right and bird hunted with the school board's lawyer.

    Threats is one of Rankin favorite tricks.  Most of the time though they are pure BS!

    Son and I was asked by Coach Britton to please do not transfer.  Son also asked if he could stay to play for Coach Britton as he really respected him as I did also.  I told Coach Britton it was fine by me AFTER the clone brought the grade up and Rankin asked the clone to come back as he threw him off the team.  Rankin did, but held a grudge against the clone the rest of the time he played.  Rankin also got mad when I put my foot down and son the clone would play one way only.  I did this as there were too many players to have a bunch playing two ways constantly.  Rankin WILL and HAS played kids when they were REALLY hurt.  I am not talking about being sore or a little owie, but when they were really hurt and should not even be suited up.

    You should never involve yourself with how a coach runs his program! If you felt you didn't want your son to play both ways then go play another sport! Parents kill me getting involved with how coaches coach! Coaching is year around 365 and there's nothing worse than having a parent living dreams through their kid trying to tell you how to run your program when their not the one's out there putting the time in before and after school and missing time from their families!

  7. Let's get to some real questions! 

    Start with NE how do they look in year 2 with loss of OC and DC and the two prone playmakers loss to graduation?

    How does Kenwood fair in year two under under new head coach and full off season under his belt? 

    Does west creek continue to get better or do they go back to same old west creek?

    Does CHS make it back to the playoff's? I heard last year there we're some unhappy boosters in wildcat land who was asking for the coaches head!

    Does coach at northwest keep his job if they have another 1-9 season it seems there's no control and lack of respect between coaches and players and is going on another staff turnover!

  8. We all know what time of the year it is! almost time for the playoffs but then again it's when head coaches start to get fired or leave for new jobs. last year there were a load of openings in state so what jobs do you think have a chance of coming open?

  9. For the person that said I dont watch much HC. hmm more like breaking down film on them if you get my drift! And I stand firmly by my statement the QB can't throw, but they are head above shoulders of everyone else in the region.
