CLOSED SCHOOLS

Young High in Knoxville. Closed in early 70's, I think. Phil Clabo (P) and Richard Pickens (RB) went on to play at UT.

 

When Young closed, students merged with South High to form South-Young. That school later closed, rezoning students to Doyle High, which is now South-Doyle.

 

Pickens was a good one at UT. I remember in 66 Maryville went undefeated in the regular season and Pickens ran all over them in the Optimist Bowl. Wasn't there also an East High school in Knoxville at one time?

I remember Kirkman real well. They beat Maryville in 1979. Maryville went on to be state runner up that year. Kirkman had a great receiver and quarterback that year. Kirkman started out 2-0 that year after their win vs Maryville. In Kirkmans next game their starting quarterback gets hurt and is out for the year. Kirkman didn't win another game. That quarterback was awesome.

 

Maryville played Kirkman again in 1980. Maryville beat them the next year 35-0. Maryville whipped Kirkman a few more times also. Can't remember the exact years though.

    • Yea I agree I will say tho I was a big “ v “ fan if an  opening ever did happen I think it would’ve been good to see him have a shot coming from a power house like Oakland. I’m sure he’s learned a lot from Kevin.  I bet he would bring a really good offense scheme IMO But after all this I just dunno anymore.  Whatever happens with the rumors an such if it did come to and opening I think this messes it all up.  The board members dreams are slowly slipping away now. I haven’t lived there for awhile I just hear what I hear, but my question is would there be any good potential candidates?? That’s why I don’t understand why people want b s out so bad who else could do any better ?? IMO there’s nothing attractive about it? As I stated earlier I went to the last game last year and taking a leak in a porta Potty is pretty sad and still nothing being done they say .. 
    • I have a sophomore that can do 177 (preferred) or 192. Sent you an email.
    • speaking of board members how can a man get arrested 12 days ago and still be head coaching a team in TC school system? looks like your right about the tc board members. I bet it would be different if they had a kid on the team
