We don't have a ton of athletes but we have heart. Hope we see a good game on Friday.

My Highlanders travel west this Friday to take on a tough Clay County team. I'm really looking forward to this trip to Celina as I used to date a one armed girl from there back in the day. She was drop dead gorgeous and could shoot a shotgun better than any guy I know. The things that she could do with that one arm. Oh well, anybody got any predictions on how this game might go? We've struggled pretty good lately, but we haven't stopped fighting. Our offensive production has been non-existent the last few games. We do play better on the road and hopefully we can score some points on this tiny 1A school.

We are struggling right now. Lets hear some predictions.

We played much better last week, but your speed concerns me tonight. New coach got us going in the right direction. Should be fun.

Any chance we win? I don't think so, but I think we keep it close for awhile. Teams always see their biggest improvement between weeks 1 and 2. I think some of our boys are ready.

I admit it. We played bad. Had some new guys on the field for the first time in front of an electric atmosphere. We go on the road this week, which I think will actually help us calm down a bit. We are learning a new scheme, but we are getting there. I like our new coach. We appreciate the people that came from Coalfield. Definitely a good group of people except the one armed guy that gave me the finger. Good luck this season! I still think we get to 3-5 wins which would be huge for us right now.

Best roster we've had since 2017. Also Coach Harris has brought some new energy to our program. We are going to be physical once again, and I love it. Coalfield has the advantage of already playing. May take a little time to get us going, but this has the makings of a old school slobber knocker. I'm going Scott-12, Coalfield-6. Thoughts?

We've struggled recently especially in 4A, but we feel this roster can get 3-4 wins this year. That would be a big deal for us. We would have won a few games last year if we could have gotten them transfers eligible, but the T$$AA screwed us. Word is we still got one on the team that should be ready to go. He's fast. His brother moved back to Atlanta with his dad. Rumor is he got into some trouble and is in prison. I hope not, but his brother will bring a much needed speed element to our football team. I look forward to a good clean game.

You got that right. It will be a long night for Coalfield. We've got perhaps one of the better rosters that we've had in a while. Young running behind that bog offensive line led by Stanley will be fun to watch. We may have another trick up our sleeves as well. Get the popcorn.....

If the twins aren't eligible, we lose 21-10. Our fastest guy was clocked at a 4.9 forty this summer, but he was on a motorcycle. If the twins are eligible, we win 34-21 in a close one, but we pull away at the end. Fingers crossed.

You're right. I will see tomorrow night. Looking forward to watching us beat another subpar Celina team.

Yes sir. We beat a good Celina team 44-21 in '97. We thought it would be a tough, physical game in Celina the next year, but it was the opposite. Ole Jeffers ran for 3 touchdowns as we cruised to a 42-0 win. That's part of the reason that I'm confident heading into tomorrow night. Congrats on your thumpers defensively, but you can't hit what you can't catch.

Much needed speed. I ran into one of the assistant coaches at Flonnies last night, and I asked him about the new additions. He just looked at me and smiled. Tells me all I need to know. Looking forward to Friday!

I believe they are juniors (twins). Mom was a professor at Morehouse College, but she took a job at Roane state recently. I don't know what positions, but they look fast and should definitely help us. I think It helps that we are breaking them in against a 1A team.

Bingo! The move to 4A has been a tough transition, but we are still fighting. That's why we get back on track against 1A Clay.
