Now we know people who are on that little ol TV show don't know much about sports. Haven't you appeared a few times? :(

 

And if I ever said an outstanding team like Alcoa never had a chance ... you should throw me off. They have an awful special group of athletes over there right now and with Oak Ridge not winning the passing league, the Tornados are probably favored to win by at least 8 touchdowns.

 

Well now according to that Tank guy on T.V. Alcoa wont have much of a chance with that outstanding defense of Oak Ridge. I predict an Alcoa W but I really hope OR pulls it out, though its just a scrimmage. But you all know that Tank guy really knows his football being on T.V. and everything...

unless someone has a successful background playing or coaching sports I really don't give many local sportscasters much credibility. That being said, I know nothing of what you're talking about in regards to "tank" or whoever that is. In other words, my opinion is most of the local sportscasters are just glorified fans.

If you can make a living at it, I can't imagine a better job than writing and talking about sports. In particular, high school football. Tank and his associates at The Oak Ridger and High School Confidential are helping enhance the excitement surrounding Oak Ridge football. I especially like the "where are they now" stories. Great job!

I will never be a rich man, but I thank God every night that I have spent the last 15 years covering athletes in east Tennessee. I appreciate the kind words ... really glad I sic'ed Tatia on those whatever happened to stories.

 

If you have any you want us to do, let us know.

    • No reasonable lawyer would take up this case. I am not a lawyer, but I know school law in and out.  Similar situations just like this play out thousands of times each year across the country, even at the college level (i.e. Ole Miss)  The Plaintiff's never win...ever.  If I am wrong, please provide a legal precedent for me. I will be waiting.  https://www.espn.com/college-football/story/_/id/39431892/judge-drops-ole-miss-player-lawsuit-lane-kiffin  
    • Yes Justin Cruse was named head coach
    • It used to be, I think it still is, a change of 20% +/- gives reason to reclassify. Schools can choose to play up classifications but not down. Here is the mid cycle reclassification info on TSSAA.org When Memphis East changed from a regular public school to an "all-optional" school in 2017 the would've dropped to A but chose to stay in AAA in basketball (baseball, and softball) Penny was still coaching there and with the players they had they would've beaten A teams by 40 and slept walked to the championship. Other Memphis schools stayed in their classifications (mostly in basketball) until the next reclassification cycle. Of course this is the same time that a 4th class was added basketball.
