Tullahoma’s region should be pretty tough this year with what I think are 5 quality teams. I think they will finish between 3rd and 5th in the region this year. They lost more from the previous year than any team I can remember in Tullahoma history. Closest comparison for Tullahoma sakes is the 99 team with Dunlap, brinkley, etc and only returning about 6 starters or regular contributors in 2000.

An outside candidate is not a good option.

You think Jared is ready then?

I can't speak for anyone in any official capacity. But I personally feel that we have at least 2 assistant coaches that would fit right in. If that that wasn't in the cards, despite what I read in the Knoxville News, I would welcome Steve Matthews back home to Tullahoma. I don't know what his status is as of today. 

He was at the championship game… I can tell you that…

I agree. For Tull to be as physical and big as they were and were advertised I feel EHS handled them just fine. 

I thought Tullahoma was big on the line but I don’t think they are as physical or nasty as they should be to be honest…the few games I watched this year is what I’m basing that opinion on…

You better enjoy it. Looks like tough times again. Lost 22 seniors (21 starters) and the HC. Do you have anything in the tank to reload? Or was it just a very talented class cycling through? That’s the trick. Staying consistent. It ain’t like we’re in Blount County. Where D1 football players fall from the sky like rain.

Pretty sure 21 played but weren’t all starters. However the cats will be taking a step back as the losses across the board are substantial. 

Coach Olive just announced he has coached his last game. Happy he went out a champion.

Ya , I mean I was Pulling for Tullahoma because of Coach Olive , but if that's a Tullahoma fan calling a Kid a choker who just won 2 State Titles you would think one of their fan's would appreciate his record seeing as how it took Tullahoma 100 years to win half the State Titles this kid has won ... unbelievable . 

He played a heck of a game. Made some big time throws with wildcats on him. 

2:36 left Tullahoma 4th and goal at 1

How do you kick the ball to Bryson Rollins in the 4th quarter on 4th & 4? Crazy

Smart play… make them drive the field.

Wildcats can’t continue to play bend not break tampa 2 defense against quick passes on the outside. That’s where Cyclones need to attack as ttown defense looks to be stout against the run so far.

Nope #10 is the best in Tennessee.  Name one with more wins or more Touchdowns or more State Championships or less losses.

Homer alert… what that means is he is a really good player on a great team….

Same song and dance every year from the west side of the state. Chest thumping then y'all see who really is "built different". Until y'all can make it a game y'all are just blowing hot air. 

Tullahoma isn’t from the west side of the state…

You have not watched film if that is all you got!  That is what this kids does.  He makes you pay.  He is 6'2 200lb senior.  Not a rookie sophomore like haywood county QB.  This kid makes great decisions. Has lots of arm angles to throw around people on the run.  Faster then T-LBS and line.  Once you look at the pass they pound him up inside or on a counter.  You have to account for him 85% of the offense.  That means you are playing all 11 people and they have a back blocking for him or guards.  T- O-line better pick it up.  No Rushing attack the last two weeks.

The LBS will have trouble bringing down QB.  

Correct, I’m not watching film of a game I’m not playing in. Haven’t watched any high school film to prepare for a game since 2000. No reason to be coaching from the stands. I’ll just be there and enjoy the game with other former cats cheering on T-town and discuss what we see during the game. 

Tullahoma’s oline while big haven’t seemed to open holes the last two weeks that I would expect from their size. The d line and linebackers however make a lot plays and will be a great test for Betsy’s offense. 
 

Betsy will have to throw to move the ball with regularity or get outside the pocket with the qb imo opinion to move the ball.

I asked a question… answer! 

He’s not as elusive…. Brown is either the top athlete or #2 in the state. Running back at Oakland is the other one.

Word on the street is Tullahoma wouldn’t swap any film with us. 

Most games are on nfhs and can be watched so no reason to drive such a long distance to just swap film if true. Technology has come a long was so I doubt an in person swap needed to happen.

If it comes down to physical, your team will lose by 3 scores. If you all beat the Cyclones it will be throwing the ball. No team in the state any more physical than Greeneville which was ranked in some of the TSSAA poles as the over all #1 team in the state of Tennessee, that’s over all even 6A, and Betsy handled them. And by the way Since you all seem to like stats go compare Tully stats to Greeneville 

I would be shocked if Tullahoma isn’t the more physical team…

never saw Greeneville as the #1 team in entire state…

these teams are probably closer to 10-12 at best to be honest…including greeneville

mccallie, lipscomb, maryville, Oakland, summit, Alcoa, CPA and then probably Powell, and some other private schools or 6A schools before you get to these two and greeneville…

Impressed by crowd that haywood brought this distance on thanksgiving weekend. 

Big win for the wildcats….

That's great to know Haywood do travel,so we'll probably fill the visitor side up

Should be a great game and atmosphere. Hope my former coach and the wildcats take care of business tonight…

The Wades from Summit did so.  I’m sure Brown would be a much better fit at Kentucky than Alabama.  His chances of getting on the field much faster go up significantly if he goes to Kentucky.  
 

Kentucky is having a great run of success the last several years.  Their football program is not what you once remember.  

Kentucky told one twin he would play qb is why they are going there. I don’t think both had a bama offer. TN offered both but didn’t promise the one he would be a qb

Bama passed on him and he is likely headed to KY because of "bucks" influence if that tells you anything.

You think buck steered him to Kentucky? Or that was best he could get due to attitude and off the field issues.
