Anyone already have any preseason tournaments scheduled? Especially in the Knoxville area.

Soddy-Daisy best team in it. Always have been, Clifford Kirk knows how to put wining teams out there. Good luck Lady Trojans!

Just because there is a brawl doesnt make it a rivalry, just a bunch of hot heads who get ticked off. Besides Rhea Co. is good at getting into brawls with someone like Fitzgerald as the head man.

Good coaches dont jump into a fight on the field, they break it up. If he was so good, why did he have to step down for Coach Hammontree? B/c he is not that good.

Leave Fitzgerald off of that list, he is an insult to anyone.

There last coach gave them plenty of confidence, with four good athletes that builds that, b/c without that, they didn't have an athlete on that team.

That is the stupidest think I have ever heard, what type of coach would not help one of their kids get into college, if they were good enough, just maybe some of the kids weren't up to par, and the coach wasn't going to lie for them. Or just maybe there is more to this "Coach" Randall situation.

Well when this is coming from people within that program, you might want to believe it.

The question is do you know why they all of the sudden moved to Munford? If he is talented, why go to Munford, instead of Brighton or Covington?

I would have to definately agree. It would be a huge turn around. The previous coach, who was a great coach, didnt have much success, granted he never had too much help with other coaches, where this one got to bring in any body he wanted. Between that and bringing in all of these new players, who knows what could happen. I just wish someone would check and see if these new players are legal or illegal transfers.

I heard they were illegal transfers, rumor mill has it that they are giving them houses and paying one of the dads.

What about Maryville/Alcoa, Soddy-Daisy/Red Bank, Soddy-Daisy/Rhea County

First Tennessee is no where up there. Second, Texas, California, Florida, and Georgia, Mississippi, Alabama are some of your top teams.

You are the one who needs to be asked where you live. I have been around several programs and I know for a fact that a kid has never been played because of their parent. Anyone who thinks this is crazy, they need to go and watch a practice and sees what all goes on. Because there will be a reason why that is kid is starting over someone else. The reason may be the other kid has discipline problems or grades, or maybe that the other kid is just better. So, yes this is a stupid question to be asking. Coaches are competitive and want to win so that they can climb up to better jobs.

Who cares about who is the best in that county, what about the best team in the state right now.

Last time it was Soddy's down year and Hixson had all the hype, Soddy killed Hixson, but if Hixson is disciplined I vote Hixson over Soddy-Daisy. Go Wildcats.

Both teams are excellent programs. Riverdale top of 5A and Maryville top of 4A, but Riverdale would beat Maryville in the end.

Ditching your own team sdballer2005?

Hate to say it, but Soddy's talent is no where were it used to be. Back when you had the Blue brothers and Duran and Jarvis Smith, Jones and all of that bunch. So I do not see them putting up over a .600 season this year.

What do you mean bitter? And who do you think that I am, telling me to pay attention to Munford? I am a dearn UT student. Boo-ya

Instead of talking about all Rhea's problems, why don't you all focus on your on team. Wait I fogot, all you SD people are good for are trash talking, whether it is other programs or the coaching staff.

You think that one player is going to make a difference in a game. I believe that you are underestimating Coach Ryan and his staff's ability to get Munford where they need to be.
