  1. Luckily he has a lot more football ahead of him after high school. Overall he was pretty lucky it happened right before this game. He probably would have missed 2-3 games if it happened any other time.
  2. My kid was one of the ones out with an injury. They are all pretty good friends off the field. Definitely not a coach.
  3. No hidden meaning unless they meant the following: At least 4 seniors were on the bench with injuries at the end of the game. 2 started on the bench with injuries. 1 has been a starter for 30 plus games in a row. Never missed a practice or game. It also meant at least 3 multi year all region players were on the bench with injuries. 2 of them were 2 way starters and on special teams. All 3 of them were captains and all 3 will be playing on Saturdays next year. Say all you want about all the other losses this past year, but in my opinion, WB takes the win if they were playing. It was a real blow to have them out of this game. You were missing your starting TE and best blocking back, your best offensive lineman, your leading tackler for the last 3 years, and your long snapper. It kind of hurt a bit.
  4. This is something we can agree on. It isn't that hard to come up with a better way to do it either. Since most things like this come down to revenue, I would argue that better aligned competition would put more fans in the seats. It is a win across the board. The TSSAA needs to get a backbone and just do it. They are either lazy, incompetent, or both in regard to this issue.
  5. It is really hard to gauge this up coming game. WB easily handled a team that beat Clinton bad last year, then they played bad at the Bearden scrimmage. I don't think Bearden did anything spectacular. WB just played bad on offense. Alcoa is Alcoa. They will put up more than 12 points in a quarter against a few teams and will easily roll to another title. Clinton on the other hand hasn't surprised me. I have been hearing they are better this year. They beat who they were probably supposed to beat and lost to who they were supposed to lose to in scrimmages. It wouldn't surprise me to see a close game.
  6. Not sure if it was the whole game, but I know lots of their main players played most, if not all of the game.
  7. I had to leave before that one was over. I personally didn't pay much attention.
  8. Lost 12-0 to Alcoa. Could have been worse and could have been better. I would argue Alcoa has one of the best OL's in the state.
  9. William Blount (Not sure of times, I am guessing around 5:30) Friday 7/30 - Cherokee @ WB Friday 8/6 - WB @ Bearden I expect the Cherokee scrimmage would be a good one to get a feel for how the changes will look on O and D. Bearden will be a great test against a 6A opponent to really see where we stand and what needs work.
  10. The older one that graduated is going to ETSU. The second one will be a Junior. He doesn't have much experience, but he throws a nice ball and is crafty when he needs to be with his legs. I am guessing he is 6'4" or 6'5" now. He looks the part. Both the offense and the defense will look a little different this year. The scrimmage on Friday should answer some questions. Then Bearden next week.
