Thanks

I’ve not read the whole thread, Will this game be available online anywhere to watch?

Excuse me for posting “the City of “Kingsport” doing the interview. There was five to seven people that sat in on the interview process as some of the what you called “search committee” was not there for every interview as some of the individuals has prior obligations. As for what was said by Coach Witten, I will not go into detail but if you are truly interested in what he said, I assume you know people in the administration and I am sure you can find out exactly what was said. On the former player, I’m not going to list his name but it doesn’t take a rocket scientist to figure out who this player is. The “search committee” was ready to hire their man and then this “former player” approached those in the administration and said “we need to stay in house and hire this guy.” And no the deal was not done long before the search started. You can believe me or not, I really don’t give s#*t.

Actually, no I was not one of those interviewing him but I spoke with someone who did sit in on the interview and if you would have heard what he had to say, you would have said no thanks as well. The city of Kingsport interviewed several people and was turned down several times. A former player at DB basically called out the administration and told them that they needed to stay in house and that’s what they did. We will see what happens at the conclusion of this season but everyone might as well get behind with who we have now because bashing the staff this early in the season is a little premature. And with those saying we have talent on this team, your wrong, because we do not have the talent we’ve had in years past. Particularly on the defensive side of the ball.

Whiten had a terrible interview and that’s putting it nicely. JC is who we got and we might as well get behind him at least for this season.

You might be right...either way it’s not looking good for the tribe right now unless a miracle happens.

Agree with everything you said. Sometimes you (coach) have to look yourself in the mirror and take the blame. Yes, some of the blame is on the players but they just don’t look prepared and maybe he’s just not relating well with the players.

NO it won’t, DB is not beating SH. They may win the next week against Sevier county. They’ll be 1-4 at the half way point.

DB may not be a good football team like some are saying but most of their offense is back from last year. It seems to me there is some dissension on the offense side of the ball. There is no way this team shouldn’t be scoring at least two to three touchdowns a game. The offensive coordinator is from Knoxville I believe. Maybe these kids are just not relating well with the coaching staff. The defense looks like a middle school defense. It’s hard to believe that a school of that size don’t have more athletes than what is out there. It is going to be a long season for the Tribe. Hate it for the seniors.

I disagree, the talent level is not there right now. You can call it coaching all you want but to say their record would have been 9-1 is laughable. It would not have mattered who would have been coaching this past season, they may should won one, maybe two more games. You could see some improvements at times but overall the skill set is just not very high right now. GS worked with corners and safeties at D-B, that's all he did. He did the best he could with what he had to work with.

Actually GS did coach Defensive backs this season at Dobyns Bennett. For the ones saying he should be coaching at DB, he did this last season. He was in the press box each game. Dobyns Bennett defensive backs struggled all season, kids played hard but the talent is just not there right now.

Batman I read in an earlier about the freshman being so good back in 14, did you have a son that played or still does play?

Well most of the athletes that played freshman ball are still playing. Just because the school has 2000 kids doesnt mean they should beat Greeneville by five touchdowns. Also, next year there will be forty-eight 6A teams and Alcoa would probably beat all of them but maybe one or two of them. Alcoa is much smaller than Greeneville.
