They must be keeping it vanilla until they get to Kingsport!

I agree with everything you said! I don't know him personally, but there is nothing that I have ever seen that would indicate that he is nothing but a good kid! I think youngin my post as it was meant, and I believe you should start preparing for ways to get him the ball, as soon as possible and not wait until you need it. If you do now in game situations you will be prepared when you need it later, and you will add more to the preparation of the teams you play! By the end of the year it will be pick your poison! And while your at it, #4 could use more opportunities as well!

What is unimpressive about Tee, is that they don't throw to him 15 to 20 times per game! If they did he would score four or five TD's and 200 yards receiving per game! To those who want a state title in Oak Ridge, that along with 22 running will get you there! 22 is not big enough to get you there on his own! You may want to pass that on to your coaches, because if you don't start doing it now, it will be too late once you get to the playoffs against a team that stops the run! You should be going for two in a row this year!

The running clock is for Liberals who don't want to hurt kids feelings! But by doing that you hurt a lot of kids that want to play, and have worked hard to get an opportunity to play! It is not for the lazy fans who are too lazy to sit and watch a game to the end! If you don't like or want to watch the young people play, then take your lazy butts to the house!

Can you expand on that for the people that are not part of the program?Thanks

Willie, I am a proud DB supporter! I saw where DB needs to improve, and saw the great Athletes OR has. We have our excuses to why we lost, but your team was not in good shape! DB had cramping but I have never seen the type of cramping OR had! It was someone different on almost every play! At one time there was four down on the field at one time, with two others on the ground in the sideline! No ill will intended, you all need to get that fixed, or may cost you a game you should win!

OR has more talent and should win this game easily, because of their athletes! OR better early and often before they cramp up! If this is close in the fourth Quarter then OR is in trouble as they are in the worst shape of any team I have ever seen! They have talent just in very poor shape!

Tee is still the best player on the team, and the best player on just about every field he steps on! If he played in DB's offense he would have 250 yards a game, and 3 to 5 TD's a game. That is not an insult to Graham, just a fact. Graham is just fast as lightening, but still needs a little more bulk, which he still has a couple more years to get!

Well after losses from both teams, who will rebound, and has William Blount really improved enough since last season to win this game!

#35 was tackled by the center or one of the guards not sure, from Behind, could have been a serious back injury the way he was pulled down! Before he even rolled over the flag was in the air, poor officiating, and again the crew should be reviewed!

Several things about this game! First congratulations to the Oak Ridge team and fans! You have a really good team with some excellent athletes! I said 22 was the key earlier in the week but questioned whether he had ever been tested, he answered that question with his speed! He is faster than fast! Tee Higgins is ridiculous, and you don't even have to make a good throw, because he is just going to get up over anyone else to get the ball! 54 was what I thought he was and that is a stud linebacker! DB lost the game and I except that and nobody likes to lose, but some positives I see on the DB side. The coaches went in at half time and decided to show the kids that they believed in them and let them play in the second half. The Defense has improved as they did a good job other than giving up several big plays and the speed of #22 and the ability to run, jump and catch the football by #5 had something to do with that. DB will see a lot of good teams this year, but I do not believe they will face anyone nearly as fast as 22 or as good of an athlete as 5. DB's offense looked solid, and if they do not lay the ball on the ground so many times, it is a different ballgame. DB had 521 total offense to 345 OR so that shows that DB is not overrated, just made some mistakes that can be fixed! No one wants to blame officiating for a loss, but the poor officiating has to be at least mentioned, as they did try to control the game. Early in the 2nd half 6 kids from OR are laying on the ground at the same time with Cramps, momentum has shifted and OR runs a play and a ref throws a flag and ejects one of the best defensive players in Tennessee for throwing a punch which never happened! That not only effected the second half of the game, but DBs next game as well, not exactly sure of the penalty but it could be two games! The kid is as good of a kid as you will ever meet, and a bad official made a terrible call! The officials did not cost DB the game, but TSSAA needs to review this crew!!! I think The cats have a a special team and could and should compete for the state championship! I do believe the Indians have a good team and they will win a lot of games this year!

Not that it makes a big difference 2 INT 3 fumbles not including the muffed punt.

Bingobobby, nobody takes anything you say seriously, and nobody care what you have to say! I am pretty sure that most would agree that we can tell you watched football and were never allowed on a football field!

Prayers going out from Kingsport, for the Police officers family, all the law enforcement officers and the good people of Marville!

I respect your posts, but the first of this made me laugh, because I was thinking neutral colors are anything that is not maroon and grey! Haha, safe travels!

Bingobobby it is past your bed time, you can go to bed now!

Well Bingobobby's mama let him have his puter back!!! Glad to to have back from your grounding little Bobby! I have one questions for ya, will you pull up your big boy pants and tell the world you are a loser if Betsy beats your Hilltoppers?

Was that the hit to the head on the Kid out of bounds?

I fully understand, but I have heard they have been working on the spread, and didn't know if they would bring out against DB or wait until Farragut?

Waco, you must have been right! Bingobobby's mama must have taken his computer away!

Have they been holding out, to show the new offense this week, or are they going to wait until next week?

Kdubb I watched some video and you look good, if you are underrated I hope you get the recognition you deserve and I wish you the best the rest of the season after this coming Friday. I do hope you are blockable for at least one game, but if you want to go play at the next level, I hope you are offered that opportunity from a school you want to play for!

I agree Bingobobby is a Moron, Carter has done a good job at SH, but it was 20 years of beat downs, and you finally got a few wins and you think you are Maryville! Bobby you might want to wait a few weeks before you run your mouth, I have seen what you have, and I do believe this year is going to slow down your progress in the quest to become a school considered a football school!

There are some things that known about Oak Ridge but there are still some key question marks! Known Tee Higgins is tall, fast and is one of the best receivers in the country! Jordan Graham is fast and could be the key to a Cats victory! We also know that Oak Ridge has a very athletic team with at least one really good linebacker, but the rest is still a wait and see! One thing unknown is how good Jordan Graham really is, because he hasn't yet played a smack you in the mouth defense, other than Sevier County who struggles against the run and maybe Ooltewa. We are still waiting to see what the new OR QB has to offer, as he was not challenged at all in his first game! Can he run? Can he throw with pressure? Can he throw when he has to make a quick decision and his targets are being covered. ( That last comment does not mean I am oblivious to the fact that Tee or other receivers can still make an athletic catch when being covered!). Offense and Defensive lines on both sides are still a wait and see! It is known that the Linebackers for DB will come get you, still a wait to see in the Defensive backfield but it appears to be majorly improved since last year! With all that said, not one person in this thread has a clue of what the outcome of this game will be, but I can promise you this, we will all have the answers to these questions after Friday Night and it might be another Dobyns Bennett and Oak Ridge Classic!
