    This has been done to death but hasn't been done in quite awhile. I'm a fan of football history and architecture. Here are the factors: capacity, design, history, environment. Public Schools Only. Who's on your list.

    10. Franklin County High School

    9. Patriot Stadium- Henry County

    8. Shackle Island-Beech

    7. Calvin Short- Gallatin

    6. Shields Stadium- Maryville

    5. Lindsey Nelson- Columbia Central

    4. Blankenship Field- Oak Ridge

    3. Bill Clabo- Farragut

    2. J. Fred Johnson Stadium- Dobyns Bennett

    1. The Pit- Lincoln County

     

    Not a bad list, but your missing multiple nice venues across the state. Farragut is NOT in the Top 10. No particular order. East Tennessee has some really nice Stadiums. Even talking about 1A programs that have great Friday Night environments 

    Onieda 2A

    South Pitt 1A

    Harriman 1A 

    Alcoa 3A

    Elizabethton 4A 

    Science Hill 6A

    Tennessee High 5A

    Gatlinburg Pittman 3A 

    Greeneville 4A

    Rhea County 5A

    Sevier County 5A

    Bradley Central 6A 

    Red Bank 3A 

    These are just a few to think about. Keeping it on Eastern Time Zone. I am sure I missed several. There are tons of great Venues. Tough to make a Top 10.

    What was witnessed tonight with the YAI football team and program has to be an all time low.  Extremely undisciplined football with a ton of personal fouls and unsportsmanlike penalties.  Football is a contact physical sport but the performance shown by the Dragon Football team was very uncalled for in many different ways.  The administration at York needs to step in quickly before it gets majorly out of hand.

    Will York be moving down in Classifications come next year?

    It’s easy..No discipline, clowns for coaches. The culture will never change because parents do want better for there kids and move them to a better school (athletic). I didn’t want to gamble with my boys health or future. I know he’s not a big time D1 athlete but he his a college athlete. I didn’t feel he would develop into what he is now anywhere else. Parker is almost 45lbs heavier and extremely strong being in Maryville weight room. In my opinion when your lineman are benching 200-225 you have a problem. Wb has no discipline on any aspect of the game. Players can only mirror the coaches. Like I said it’s not the schools fault, it’s select few that run the football program. Kids can only do what they’ve been taught to do. 

    This thread has intrigued my interest as I feel like this happens at all different levels and schools across the states. First, Let’s pump the brakes here sir about blasting an “organization” which is not because organizations are businesses. As you go and blast a school on their current situation for what they did to you or your son I am sure you have every reason to state your concern. We all can make those choices that is why we love this great land.

    As a preacher I love to gather all information before accusing any wrong doing on anyone or anything. This research shows that you are a William Blount Grad and you did enrolled your son as a Freshman at William Blount. He  which started or played (significant amount of playing time) as a Freshman for a 6A program. Your Son Played (ONE) Friday night Contest and played in the JV game that following Monday. When Tuesday morning came. You sir then withdrew your son from William Blount to enroll at Maryville. This happen 3 years ago as your son is a senior now. Is this information correct?
    (Yes or No answer would be fantastic) 
     

    If Yes, what gives you right to bash a program or school that you have no affiliation with anymore? Even worse you are a (GRADUATE) of that school! 
     

    If No, why come out now attacking a program and people on a message board when it seems like they tried their best to help your son succeed. (Outsider point of view) 

    Maryville is a great program that is top tier school in the state and on the field. Your son is having a tremendous year from your stats. If those people at William Blount are fueling his fire. Why stoop down to that level of embarrassment. (In your case).
     

    Please note, I do not call anyone out or do I think anyone is wrong about an issue. However, the other side of the stories people are struggling too.
