  1. The only butt-hurt over that name that I know of are the people in Bellevue who are still butt-hurt over having an almost new high school turned into a middle school and all the senior high kids bussed to HHS in the early 80's.  I can understand their frustration back then but this is a lifetime later.  And anybody who can afford to live near Hillwood in this era and actually has kids young enough to be in school (not many fit that demographic) send the kids to $$$$$ private schools anyway.  Not public schools.

  2. So I can get sent from the middle of middle TN to the farthest reaches of west TN to call a playoff game for whatever it is they get paid?  And a small gas stipend tossed in?  Hard "NO,"

    And then they wonder why there is a shortage of officials to where they will have to start playing more game on Thursday nights.  Pay better and stop sending Nashville area refs to almost Arkansas.  Common sense, really.

    Just as refs need to stop coming off as complete homers in big games.  Or any games.

    OMG what a travesty

    They didn't need any help from the refs but they sure got it anyway. 

    " FIRST AND TEN....   BLUE DEVILS!! "

    On TV... for the whole world to see and hear... the T$$AA must be very proud.

    *** I am not a fan of either school, just concerned about high school "officiating" these days.

    Don’t worry, waterboy.  They would never hire an ex-cheerleader.

    Speaking of waterboys and cheerleaders, who was that white hat ref in the Riverdale-Lebanon game?

    The one who actually called Lebanon "THE BLUE DEVILS!!" instead of offense or defense or at most "Lebanon" - ??

    I agree with the current HC they have. Stevens couldn't win even when he had talent

    I'm not sure which side of I-24 most of the kids being poached at the Waldren Rd. exit bus live on.  One side is zoned to LHS and the other Stew Creek which is always a few guys away from being a power team.  Now that SCHS is back in the region with Oakland, Riverdale, etc instead of Antioch, McGavock, etc - they need every athlete they can get in that zone and not get poached from.

  6. Are you guys familiar with the small high school in east TN that lost TWO coaches to covid who were brothers?

    People, please don't assume you can stay in bed a few days taking tylenol and drinking juice to beat this bug.

    As a person who is twice vaccinated, I can assure you the shots are MUCH more safe than catching it.  Do the right thing.

    Better? Yes. On Oakland's level? Probably not?

    Take LaVergne for example.  If their student-athletes didn't get poached, they would at least be able to beat Metro teams.

    People in Antioch say that Brentwood Academy has been taking their best players forever.  And then there is the bus from the other school that stops at the Waldren Road exit off 24 every day.  They are not even trying to hide what is going on.

    yeah.  We tried that, and that whole recruiting thing got in the way...

    If they would make a rule to stop (name of private school here) from sending a bus everyday to Rutherford County to poach some of the best athletes, some of the schools in Rutherford besides Oakland would be incredible as well.

    And Central Magnet needs to add football so the kids interested in high academics can get both in one place.

    From FOX NEWS:

    Based on approximately 530,000 hospital admissions with confirmed COVID-19 diagnosis in June-August 2021, an estimated 98.6% of hospital admissions with COVID-19 during this period were among unvaccinated people.

    I got the shots (Pfizer) from the Rutherford County Health Department in April/May.  (The former State Farm call center building).  I didn't get sick.  I didn't grow a third eyeball in the middle of my forehead.  I didn't swear an oath of compliance to Bill Gates.  My arm did itch a little from the band-aid.
