  1. Will you guys still broadcast? U only got 200 tickets and they went to players (as they should have).
  2. York being quarantined hurt them I'm sure. Are there any region games this week?
  3. Wow, not a good week one. Squatch was probably the biggest surprise followed by Smith. Jackson shutting out York at home was a bit of a shocker. Upperman wasn't expected to win and didn't. Don't know enough about Walker Valley to say it was more about them or Cannon. I don't think Grundy played. Other than everyone has a lot of work to do, anyone see anything to change thoughts/predictions?
  4. Not that it matters, but just for clarification, it wasn't a crack back, that has to be below the waist I think. It also wasn't targeting like the announcers said on the broadcast. The call actually looked like it was for a blindside block, a relatively new rule. It was a shame because if all he does is screen the guy and doesn't de-cleat him, it still goes for six. I don't fault the young man though. He was playing hard, it was within the context of the play (he was in the slot and the outside rusher was his responsibility) and nothing cheap, You'll also see that happen quite often and not get called, especially when it's parallel to the line of scrimmage and in the backfield. What he did used to be the textbook way to execute that block. Water under the bridge now, just like many other things, they'll learn from it and get better.
  5. NM, combo of bad intel and hopeful thinking based on Physician's group saying schools should be delayed. Lee doesn't seem to be budging.
  6. Hearing the Governor may have something to say this afternoon about schools opening.
  7. Do you think we'll hear this team had more fans than that team and it's unfair, cheating, favoritism, etc.? I know a guy with a kid playing next week and I'm going to try to get in as his Uncle Rico who lives in a camper in their yard, lol.
  8. You can go to the FB page for Upper Cumberland Reporter, they broadcast several games this year. Just click on the videos button on the homepage and scroll through until you see them.
  9. Thanks Fan. I remember going to Red Boiling after the 2008 tornado and seeing the destruction there. The path here was less than a mile from our home. We just had our last utility restored last night, but it was just an inconvenience for us. It was total devastation for so many, it's really hard to describe to anyone who hasn't seen it. We've given furniture and household goods to meet specific needs and the family has volunteered many hours, as have so many others. Help has also come from many local communities as well as others outside the area. One group I've seen pretty prominently is the Blount County Sheriff's Office, so thanks to our friends from the Alcoa/Maryville/East Tennessee area and all the others who have given of their time. We all love high school sports and the article below certainly helps with perspective on the role sports can play. https://www.tennessean.com/story/news/2020/03/07/girls-basketball-players-lose-homes-tornado-but-not-championship-hopes/4973346002/
  10. For Upperman, Rush is 8AA MVP and Defensive POY, Gore is 1st Team, Allen is 2nd Team, Babic and McWilliams 3rd Team, McCallister Defensive Team, Nash is on the Freshman Team, and McWilliams Co-Coach of the year. Haven't seen the others or the bracket yet. Did hear that the first two rounds of the tournament will be at Watertown before moving to Tech.
  11. Will be two Ms. Basketball finalists on the floor.
  12. Congratuations, got a good guy. Hate to see him leave Baxter, but wish him nothing but the best.
  13. To get the games in. With schools shutting down, doubt they play tonight.
  14. Yes, although he didn't play against LA the other night due to illness.
  15. Is anybody moving games to tonight?
  16. Riverdale won 25 games last year and went undefeated in a tough district but looks like they could be rebuilding some this year. If that's the case, UHS did what they should have and got a solid win.
  17. Upperman winning by 30 at the start of the 4th
