    Are they going to have a middle school program?

    I would think CNB will have a MS program, when he was HC last time he made sure his feeder program was run right! His son should be getting close to MS football.

    Most of you folks need to understand something about the SP/Jasper rivalry.  It’s not like it used to be.  Many of these kids nowadays don’t grow up with it engrained in their heads.  With “select” ball it started dying.  Think about it.  Many of the kids from the Valley started playing together on select teams and became great friends.  They didn’t look at each other as enemies anymore.  They have come together as one playing for the same reasons, to be better, to win, and to help them to one day play at the next level.  
     

    I met two awesome young men that play football for Jasper last night.  We talked and got to know each other.  I asked them what they thought about the rivalry and their words were “it doesn’t mean anything to me”.  They both said they are fine with not playing SP.  You see, all this crap is just the adults being stupid, and not thinking about what’s best for the kids’ futures.  Jones thinks differently than Grider in some aspects.  He coaches differently.  It’s a new day for the kids at SP.  Some are afraid of change.  Get over it.  There are some really great people at Jasper.  I like to call them friends.  I will be talking more with some of those Jasper football players really soon.  I hope I can inspire them to be better than you stupid adults on here.  That’s goes for both sides, all sides.  Just quit with the antics and grow up!  These kids, all the kids, deserve better.  SMH 

    You are correct! Time to consolidate and make Marion County Great!

    Hate to see that the game got dropped but times have changed. We played a home and home with them when Dale was here the first time. They brought a good team to town in the first matchup and won a close one. Dale left after that season and wasn't here for the trip to Murphy. Believe they brought a decent crowd if I remember correctly. Future looks bright for MC and SP at the moment. 

    So the state's longest rivalry will not be played in 2021? Wow,  this could be the start of consolidation of Marion schools?

    I was told that there had been an issue with the director of schools with Coach Bryant  (and a few other coaches)  Now that she is gone.......

    Grundy County High School football coach Nick Bryant has been suspended for a week. The move comes after an incident during halftime of Friday's loss to Silverdale. The parent of an athlete says Bryant kicked a garbage can as he entered the locker room. The can hit one of his players, but didn't injure him. The school's athletic committee says its code of conduct was violated, so Bryant's been suspended for all activities through this Friday, including the upcoming game at Signal Mountain. Grundy County director of schools Jody Hargis says the suspension wasn't just over one incident, and that there were several issues leading up to it. chattanooga times free press Sep 18, 2013

     

     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     

    Maybe he has grown up a little since this time. Haven't heard anything on him is 4 or 5 years. I assume he has been coaching somewhere else, so you can check with his current employer.

    This whole interviewing/hiring process is a joke.  The board has been taking some heat for the way they let Hayworth go and this whole interview committee thing was set up just to try and make it look like the deal wasn't already made behind the scenes.

    Who is on the interview committee? When are interviews? Any good candidates?

    Raider, The 5 members of the school board have already made their decision and sent out marching orders to the new director.  They wanted Hayworth out and Coach Bryant in.  Word is they are now trying to buy a little time making it look like it wasn't a done deal before Hayworth was even let go.  It will be Coach Bryant according to the school board "chief".  Don't know what they are waiting on.  They need to get Coach Bryant finalized and quit wasting more time.

    ECHO!!!

    I’d you’ve never been to SP for a game you need to come to this one. Regardless of the outcome we put on a good show. Get there by 6:00 tomorrow night for the pregame warmups. You don’t want to miss it. 

    WoW!!! You are correct!!! Great venue for a small high school football game. I can really tell that the community supports this school and team. I left at halftime, but what a show. Good Luck the rest of the season!!! I'm in Knoxville heading over to the Carolina's tomorrow, have a great weekend.
