Anyone see Greenville play in week 1? I think Boone will have to improve quite a bit from their game against South Greene if they want to compete against the Devils. Hopefully they will. Is Anderson County also a 3A team?

 

Anderson Co is 3A, but technically so is Greeneville.

 

Anderson County must be down, or Greeneville was hiding a lot early on....I wasnt High on the Greene Devils...

I don't think Greeneway saw much action in pre-season scrimmage or the jamboree due to a pulled groin. He completed 13 of 19 for 151 yds and a TD

to 7 different receivers. Greeneville has not had an effective passing game in some time so it surely caught AC off guard. Mostly, Greeneville owes most of its success to executing their offensive scheme and avoiding costly penalties on both sides of the ball.

I did not realize that South Greene is just 2A. I guess Boone thinks it is more important to start the season with an easy win than to play someone hard to get you ready for the play-offs.

Last year when we beat South Greene it was the only game they lost, i wouldn't consider them a push over just because of the size school they have.

They were 8-3 last year and lost in the 1st round of the play-offs. They may not be a push over, but look at the teams they did beat. Take a look at some of the really good teams in this area and look at their non-region games. Tennessee High, South, and Elizabethton all play D-B. D-B plays out of their region against Oak Ridge. Morristown West plays Jefferson County and Knox West. Cloudland and Hampton both step up and play 4A teams. The list goes on. I love Boone, but I know beating South Greene means nothing and it does not help get you ready to play the top teams in your region.

The score should have been worse. Inside the 2 yard line twice and failed to score (fumble & INT), and inside the 5 yard line twice and missed FG's. The offense looked good, but I was more impressed with the D. They shut AC down.

If it should have been worse, it would have been worse. Turnovers and missed field goals are part of the game.

I believe the last time Greeneville had an effective passing game was in '02 when cody baugh was QB and i think the older greenway was a receiver...dang they were good that year they beat us pretty good that year i believe they beat DB that year too...

Last time I checked you aren't on the coaching staff or the roster so you "know" nothing about why we play South Green.

The size of the school does not matter on how good the team is. In my honest opinion MoWest should be a 5A school. They have 103 (I may be wrong on that number) players. Boone has about 25 that actually play, while MoWest has people coming in all the time giving their team-mates breaks. The reason a small team does good is because they have the skill and the "want to win" attitude. So no, the size of the school does not matter of the skill you have. Another example is Hampton, small school, great team. Boone is a small 4A team and winning a game against a smaller team like South Greene doesn't mean they won a game and will not gain anything from it other than a W. If you beat any team you are doing something right. To sum it all up, the size of the team doens't matter on how hard they play or how good they are, the only thing that matters is the time and effort you put in to win the game. So nice job Boone on starting the season off against a GOOD and SMALL team, a win is a win and don't let somebody take that away.

    • You didn't spell Greeneville and Elizabethton correctly in your sentence.  4A has the best teams in Upper East TN.  Carter County All-Stars and Greene County All-Stars is the Superbowl now.
    • Yeah, but if he goes to Science Hill they are guaranteed at least a win over Kingsport and that's basically the NET Superbowl
    • I expect Sevier County might be pretty good, perhaps Mo West as well.     But I don't see either of them getting out of round 2.          The rest of the region gets smoked in round 1.            Except for those once-in-a-blue-moon anomaly years the NET big schools are pretty much the same every season.
    • Wanted to see if all of you would lift up Kyle James family in prayer. Kyle was one of the best wrestlers to ever come out of Soddy Daisy and as some of you know he lost his house a few weeks ago and now his family and friends mourns his passing. Not sure if any of you were around in early 2000’s when Kyle was wrestling at Soddy, but he was a 3 time state champ and a Fargo AA along with going to Colorado to train to make the Olympic team. That goal was never reached due to medical issues, but he was an amazing wrestler and his family is as good as gold. If you were around at that time and have any pictures of Kyle, please go onto Alexy Winesburgh FB page and post. Thanks, Doug Benton
    • My opinion the 8 teams will be-  Greenback, Wartburg, Gordonsville, Jo Byrns, Eagleville, Bruceton, Dresden, and South Fulton. Gordonsviile is probably the favorite but I wont say it will be an easy road. With the right draw any of the 8 could win it.
