I have only heard this story, but awhile back, in the late 70's maybe, scott high was playing and there was a low fog. the fog was so bad that the players and refs could not see well at all. scott high was punting, a player on the opposing team ran by the punter with his hand up to make sure that it wasn't a fake. the punter fell down on purpose, got the penalty, giving scott the first down.

Back in the 70's at scott high they were playing taft youth center and a taft player ran a kickoff or a punt back for a td and jumped the fence and kept going :lol: they caught the guy about a mile down the road......still carrying the ball. true story my brother was palying for shs when it happened

This isn't the strangest thing that ever happened, but.....

 

In 2001, Blackman's first year of varsity football, we were playing at Hendersonville, who went on to be state runners-up, and we were on the verge of beating them. They were kicking about a 30 yard field goal in the last few minutes of the game. One of our guys came through the line and blocked James Wilhoit's kick and then another guy hit him. The refs called roughing the kicker, even though we blocked Wilhoit's kick, and they got the ball back, and a couple of plays later scored a touchdown to win 23-21. How the heck can you rough the kicker when you block the kick????

At a ballgame in Bruceton several years ago. you know on cold night some people want to set in their cars and stay warm. Well after halftime the teams came back onto the field and this older man shifted his car into drive and the car went onto the field. several fans and players got caught under the car. That stopped the cars being parked around the field.

 

 

This was a playoff game! The accident happened during the first play from scrimmage in the game, not after halftime. The game was delayed about an hour while the broken fence was removed and the injured people (one or two, the most serious a broken leg) attended to. No players were involved, as play was on the other end of the field from the out of control car. I think the incident was in the mid 1990's.

    • Hmmmmm……doe dee doe doe….i drove the lawnmower down to practice today…….hmmmm…… we got some new faces………. One can run faster than my lawnmower in fifth gear…… a few will be disappointed come November that they jumped ship and went down to that sewage facility……. You can bet the lawnmower on that. 
    • I don't know what's going on in the town of McMinnville, but I've read this and it's disturbing.  I'm a "player" person, and I want what's best for the player. If a player gets cut off the team because she said the "F word" then good grief. I mean, come on guys. I wish there was a way for the player to transfer to a different program and just play ball. There are a lot of athletes that are stuck because they're in crappy situations regarding their team/coach. This is player just happens to be one them.
    • Won't happen. College coaches will back the coach every time and it cost this young lady her senior season. Looks like the player may be right on this one. School let her  go after one season. This stuff happens more than you think. 
    • “No college is going to offer a scholarship to a player that is kicked off of the team.” For language? I’m not seeing that as a dealbreaker. 
    • Why did the coach get rehired after she was let go as an assistant by the former Warren County coach and the current AD?? Is that accurate?? I am very familiar with situations like this. Suprised lawsuits haven't happend before. If the coach unfairly let the player go, I think she has a shot because it cost her a scholarship. No college is going to offer a scholarship to a player that is kicked off of the team. Not going to happen. There are bad hires like this a bunch and kids are treated unfairly by coaches that can't coach a lick and have super long ropes somehow. Amazing how some of these coaches get hired and keep their job.
