That kid was an awesome player to say the least. I agree with your point. That kid left and it helped Whitwell to win a ring. That Whitwell team was truly a destiny type once in a lifetime team. Also if I remember right your best player was also out for that game.

72? Wow! Is that a result of schools being out and everyone coming out now?

I personally don’t care how or why he got here. Just reading his biography told me plenty. I’m not sure how Coach Grider got him here but kudos on the move. It sounds like we’ve got us a good one. Also the intro to two former pirates coming back to coach was awesome. I’m ready for some football after 3 outstanding hires.

I’m not going to air that stuff out here, but it’s a problem to say the least.

I don’t think the problem is his winning. It’s the reasoning behind his dismissal at Shelbyville. That’s just A LOT of baggage to be quite honest. I don’t think the Whitwell admin will hire him. It’s not everyday an 11-2 coach is fired.

I believe the few transfers he was talking about are the brothers that came at Christmas. As for Greenback last season. They had the two Millsap brothers from Tellico Plains, Rutgerson from Billy Blount, Blake Fields from Billy Blount, and obviously the big one was Braden Carnes from Maryville. He really put them over the top in 2019. They ended up with 4 transfer starters that made an impact. SP ended up with only two transfer starters. They had a couple more kids that came but they never saw the field. The way I see it.. Greenback had 4 that played a bunch. SP had 2 that played a bunch. 4-2 is 2. We lost by 1 point so if we could have gotten 2 more that played a lot that might have put us over the edge.

Ouch could we please call him mentally challenged? I have a family member that is mentally and physically challenged. The word “retard” is a little harsh for anyone. Thanks

I watch you boys go at it regularly. It’s pretty funny stuff. I have to say ole RD does beat a dead horse in the ground for sure but he’s pretty darn funny.

I guess you are counting our returning TE in those numbers? I know about the new kid that plays receiver. Who is the third one?

I think PowerP might be yanking someone’s chain. I haven’t heard of any transfers, but I sure don’t know everything either. I’m sure if we had gotten 4 new kids it would already be all over town. I do think the 2020 Pirate team has a chance to be really good again. They have a lot of speed and athleticism back for 2020. Should have a shot at a good run again.

Was TN great Billy Williams on the 89 Alcoa team?

We know we know. They will just reload from everything they lost.

I watched those Georgia state games this past weekend. Those teams were to say the least a little more talented than Tennessee teams.

You told me to write a poem for southtowner. Everyone knows what you were insinuating. You took a shot at me so I reacted. Don’t take unnecessary shots like you did and it doesn’t happen. If you think you can go around and take shots at folks and them just take it then you’re mistaken.

Puckett deserves the coach of the year. There isn’t a close second either. Masterful job this season to win the gold.

I didn’t know about your wife. I’d I had I wouldn’t have made the comment. You were looking for a comeback from me so I gave you one. However, If you hadn’t been a jerk to me for no reason it wouldn’t have been said at all.

I apologize then but you came at me insinuating things and telling me to write him a poem because I said he has good stuff on here. I was minding my own business and you started so I finished it.

I assume I can write him one like I write your wife. PAB!

No, I don’t even know him. However I do enjoy his posts. He is always fair in his assessments.

I didn’t know he played for Auburn. You said the Auburn job. That was just funny I guess.

Auburn? lol. Oh Lord when Roy gets ahold of this it’s going to get good.

He seems like a good coach. Do you think he’s leaving?

What’s this junk? Southtowner isn’t like that at all. Not sure if you’ve had your meds or not.

Didn’t realize they lost 10 starters on offense and 7 on defense. They took a big hit to say the least.

Yes he was out. I saw several things on him. He had a pretty good season throwing the ball from what I saw.
