Welcome to the real world Clinton. I guess when you lose to the second worst team in East Tennessee after beating the worst team last week, the Dragon's fans and their playoff hopes can see what is ahead of them. Basketball season. How can a 3-20 team get cocky? Clinton might beat Lenior City but will lose the rest of them and the next long losing streak has begun. How many years has it been since you guys have won two in a row? Where is that turnaround corner? I hate to be hit a Dragon when their down, but they have been down for years so why not? The Mavs in a blowout next week.

I gotta admit that I'm real surprised at this one as well. I think this is great for the kids at S-D. After all the negatives surrounding the program, this must feel like a 1000lbs gorilla is off their backs. S-D has a good shot at 2 in a row against a very weak Gibbs team next week,

 

For Clinton, I hope they do improve, but I just don't see them winning much this year. This one has to be a real slap in the face.

I am glad to see that a couple of S-D fans finally got on, it looks like they are looking for another big loss too. after 5743's post, I believe I will change my score, to another 42-0 blowout. It sounds like S-D has lost all of their confidence!!!!

coon hunter you also are an idiot i dont know if you saw the score but you might look again next time i believe iwould keep quite! GO KEES!!!!!

Well I am very, very proud of the Kees for last nights stomping of the Dragons. I noticed the Coonhunter and the great Dragoon have been very quite today, WHERE ARE ALL THE CLINTON FANS!!! Anyway great game to the players THEY earned it and deserved it. I have never seen them play that hard and with that much heart. Oh by the way to any Dragons that might be reading, do you all practice your cheap shots, or do they just come naturally?? I was just wondering cause you sure do have a lot of them :ph34r::blink:

Well some of us negative posters aren't eating yet. The coaches have alot more to prove. The players have been proving themselves for along time. I will say I was glad to see some different plays being run Friday night, maybe the coaches are FINALLY learning to change up the game plan a little. Anyway I 'm still very glad for the players. THEY are the ones that EARNED it. As for the coaches...they have a lot more to prove. :thumb::ph34r:

i agree the boys have been working hard. I dont think 1 game says the coaches have going the right way but it is agreat win. I still dont believe the coaches are very good. By the way didu see who homecoming is and it is comcast gane of the week? I wonder who had that set up? AD

Well what do you expect, apparently once a Powell Panther always a Powell Panther. I do think it is the comcast game of the week just not real sure. I have heard the only reason he picked this game was because he thought it would draw more money for homecoming,( (yeah right) it was originally going to be Gibbs. Anyway this stuff is going to keep happening as long as the parents allow it too. I have exhausted all avenues and am about ready to throw in the towel. I sit at these games and listen to everyone complain about the AD and the coaches but I never hear of anyone having the guts to do anything about it. Power travels in numbers. I have been fighting the fight a long time. The only way things will change is if more parents would speak up, but I guess they would rather sneak around and whisper about it , then actually do anything about it But as always GO KEES, and I am very proud of you guys. :thumb:

    • A complete cultural change happened at Greeneville and the administration and community opened up their checkbooks.  What a lot of people don't know is Ballard was Zeller's OC for many years and stopped coaching for two years because Zeller and Ballard didn't see eye to eye on some things.  Zeller lead Greeneville to it's first ever Semi Final appearance in 2000 and lost 28-12 at Maryville and had them in the Quarter Finals in 2002 and 2003.  Z was a great coach but lost some control when it came to making workouts mandatory. (He learned from that Mistake and it was at LC when i coached with him.).  Z was let go going into my Senior Year and was replaced by Steve McCurry who was the one that turned the program around.  Steve had won a 4a state championship at AC Reynolds in Asheville and made the administration completely redo the weight room with new equipment, had a football period at the end of the school day to lift, started devil camp, and brought in coaches like Danny Bentley (Still the OL coach), Ballard as the OC, Cody Baugh (QB coach and still there), and even Spradlen who is Greeneville's head coach now as the DB's Coach.  McCurry only coached for two seasons at Greeneville and took a team that had a losing record the year before and finished my Senior Year making it to the Quarters and having a 10-3 record and then followed it up with a Semi Final appearance the next year with an 11-3 record and back to back conference championships.  Loved McCurry to death but the recession hit and the story i heard was he was still buying new equipment for the team that the Principal didn't authorize and his response was "I don't answer to you and only to Niswonger and Bewley" (Two huge donors).  That was it for him and they Promoted Ballard shortly after that.   Greeneville had always been relevant ever since the the late 70's under Coach Fred Sorrell's.  Since Sorrell's took over in 1977 Greeneville overall winning percentage is over 76%.  The biggest reason people might not have thought Greeneville was "Good" until Ballard was Greeneville always played up Classification wise and could never get over the hump. (When there were 3 classifications we played 3a, when it went to 5 we played 4a).  Greeneville is the largest its ever been with 953 students and where playing teams 2 or 3 times there size back in the day (I had a little over 800 kids in the school when i graduated in 2008).  Other teams always would know they would be sore after a game but depth took over and never won a Championship until Greeneville played in the classification the TSSAA actually assigned them. You had names like Dustin Moore (1993 Mr Football for 3a and who Phillip Fulmer said was one of the greatest athletes he ever recruited), James "Mud Turtle" Mayes, Brigham Lyons, Byron Gillespie, Frankie Debusk (National Champion Qb at Furman with GQ), Jasmine Lowery, Cody Baugh, The Greenway Brothers, Joe Watson (Furman), etc.  Now the cultural is from the Pee Wee league up and you grow up as a young kid wanting to wear the Greene and White.  Here is a really good link when it comes to anything Greeneville Football related. https://greenevillefootball.com/   I also don't coach anymore.  Z told me i was to smart with how the school systems are ran these days and ended up going into real estate in Knoxville which has been a great decision for my life.
    • Yes, they will. I'm wondering what kinds of strides Sale Creek will make heading into the second season under Coach Fitz.
    • No yellow stripes on the rug last night. Biggest crowd I’ve seen at 825 since the alco debacle. 
    • I know most Pirate starters were seniors last year. Im not sure how accurate it is but someone said we only have 3 seniors. That Prep team will probably make some noise this coming season too.
