They do have supervisors that attend games. One problem for the lack of good officials is that TSSAA is one of the lowest paying far as states go for officials. Two the Barney Fifes and the GA's don't do their job in crowd control so you lose officials because they don't want to deal with the problems with fans that spill over after games and we live in a crazy world. A lot of fans dont know the game either and that can cause the heat to rise. Some parents just think their little Johnny doesn't do anything wrong when their out there and their child has a terrible attitude on the court. Now I agree with you that it is an embarrassment when attending games and seeing calls made that are trifling. The game has past most of these guys who are calling now or some that are calling never even played upward ball. I seen euro steps called walked, they put the wrong free throw shooter on the line, mishandling of rules, etc etc. The handling of subs is egregious not being at the X at said time when you might not know who the foul is on and the coach running a guy to the table to get play A out but cant is just bad. There is several whom because they have stripes and a whistle think they are above all and you cant tell them anything. Coaches ave gotten more techs in recent years than I can recall and these same officials belittle Asst. Coaches when they ask questions. Go across the state line to Alabama and the game is called totally different it has more of a college feel its fun to watch none of them tick tacky hand checks calls TSSAA could take notes from how they run things and several of their officials actually call at the next level. A change of pay and actual training will help change a lot of the problems that we are seeing.

@Betsyorangefan I guess Tullahoma still ain’t physical huh? Enjoy that sliver ball my boy

Nothing changes out west Mckenzie Fayetteville Peabody... Mckenzie and Fayetteville looks to return all their skill players but one or two. Fayetteville has had a big big lineman and I do mean this kid is huge..that moved in right before the season ended he we will be a big pickup for them.We know the east is a given. Will peabody still be in 1A? they are right on the line of returning to 2a

TSSAA pretty much promotes recruiting starting at the end of the kids 8th grade year if you read it they basically say there that you are a free agent. They turn their heads as long as you have your i's dotted and T's crossed. Some of these coaches have just built strong relationships with kids from camps and other walks of life and if they are a dominate program the kids will show up at the door steps.

so is 75 one them looks like Tarzan plays like Jane kids? He played last year vs City didn't I remember yall had one or two kids who were huge up front and the one had success throughout that night.

I think Taylor is a better fit in the slot than at RB I felt watching that game vs City 26 was the better true RB. You put Taylor in the slot you cant load the box for one, two he can take the top off any coverage and hes out in space vs smaller guys which is a nightmare.

Dont even waste your time trying to explaining this to this cat its to hard for them to understand.

How many of your teams made it out the first round? i rest my case

You dont win State Ships by mistake def a heck of a program no doubt. I was just comparing overall regions teams of who was stronger. It doesnt shock me them two schools not wanting to play def Alcoa they never seem to want to play a team that can beat them which really shocked me they played Maryville this year.

Exactly. Both of those have proven their worth but the comp they see year in and out isnt great thats no knock to them because they don't control that but if they think Tullahoma isn't battle tested and cant play with them then they will be in for a long night.

I never disqualified the fact of that but maybe your to incompetent to realize that a region is made up of more than 2 teams and that the state had a realignment and as of this year in what shape or form is region 1 better than region 5 overall?

Outside of Greenville who from that region would beat Pearl Cohn ,Montgomery Cent, or Marshall co?

The Davis kid is legit thats facts but you can scheme around him. South Pitts LB's, and Dbs better come ready and stay sound

First off Tullahoma is not my team im just giving them the upset bid since ive seen them play and they are from middle TN. Tullahoma is going to be just as or if not more physical than Greenville so not sure how that will result in losing by 3 scores when that game down to 1 score but carry on. Greenville was talented no doubt but everyone on here knows they was not the best team the entire state they would not beat Alcoa, Oakland, Summit, Maryville,Powell, more can me mentioned if need be. Dont compare stats you can get in trouble doing that. Tullahoma prolly plays in the hardest region in the state that plays into factor.

Yea I dont understand that one lol Tullahoma is def the underdog. You guys are the defending state champs and beat the top team in 4a to get to this point. It wont be easy for them to beat a team with that resume. This shouldve been the matchup last year Tullahoma dropped to ball on that one.

Tullahoma pulls off the upset this week to physical of team to handle.

I got to take Mckenzie in this one they beat the two defending state champs to get here and both of those games were dog fights. They are def battle tested. I think South Pitt has been phenomenal dealing with what they have been through this season having their coach quit on them. I think they have the speed to keep up with Mckenzie but they wont be physically capable of hanging around. If you want the recipe to stopping Mckenzie or Slowing them down then turn the Fayetteville tape on but South Pitt doesnt have those type of kids. Mckenzie really well coach they wont beat themselves. Mckenzie by 3 1/2 scores give me #11 for MVP.

It’s the most egregious call there is. I’ve seen it called on others not just Frame. TSSAA is a joke way behind time and they are very incompetent

Y’all do a great job supporting your kids hats off! Some places the kids on parents won’t even show up. Hurdling is one of the worst calls in high school but that’s TSSAA for you. I think these two will run it back next year this time of year. Will y’all have the game streamed next week?

It did not go as played .Difference of the game was the QB and City’s block in the back.. I got to throw in tho McKenzie should’ve been called for the hurdle and that would’ve taken a TD off the board. At least next week will be your last time sitting out in the cold and y’all can get your hooping shoes on. Good luck to y’all cats though, you guys have a shot especially with #11 back their one of best overall Athletes in 1a.

They got the better QB was really impressed with him. I think Peabody would’ve beat Fayetteville. After that lose they looked like they was dialed back in. I will say next week is the State Championship game tho.

Fayetteville just have this game away their mistakes finally caught up to them. QB hurt as well they need to turn it over to that freshman. McKenzie played a good game but their wasn’t the better team besides the discipline factor. Peabody roles next week

Your spot that my coat em. McKenzie got the TD and EP. 7-0 McKenzie

City shooting their self in the foot TD called back and fumbled deep into McKenzie territory. They clean it up and they win with ease. Taylor no factor this far but that’s on their coach no setting him up to be successful

Red Bank has a ton of speed if you can set the edge contain them Upperman has a chance. The Rico kid I believe it is can and will cause you some headaches. Upperman needs to control the clock and shorten this game up and their chances become higher.
