DB's schedule will be upgraded over the next two years. Right now DB and Maryville scrimage the final week of pre-season. It was held at Carson Newman this year and while not a regular game, it is as close to one as any scrimages get. This helps prepare the Indians for the season. DB and Mo West will start playing in 2008. West will be upgraded to a 5A region 1 school in the next reclassification. Dainiel Boone might get moved up. Also in 2008 Maryville will be in 5A region 2. So two years from now DB will have William Blount, Oak Ridge, Tennessee High and Elizabethton as non region opponants. Mo west and possible Daniel Boone in the region. This is a much more competitive schedule.

 

Where are you getting your information, just curious?

If Morristown West does move up the 5A Region 1 I think they will do fine. Daniel Boone, on the other hand, will get pounded week in and week out and a one dimensional running attack will be unsuccesful. Classification changes in 2009 or 2010 will be interesting, hopefully it will benefit the Big East.

Sounds good. Although a big fan of J. Fred, the Castle in Bristol has an aire of history just the same. Good luck to you guys on Friday, give Morristown West heck.

 

 

Hey Thanks. It'll be a tall order but I know our boys will do their best. We're playing pretty good ball right now and I wouldn't bet against them. Sounds like you guys had some tough breaks Friday night. That's a shame I really thought you all had a shot at making the show. We'll see you on the gridiron next August.

Coach Clark announced the William Blount addition this week. Setting up changes to a schedule is a very difficult thing. It is real easy to say;"I want to drop this team and pick up that team". You have to look at the slots available for change. I also believe the TSSAA does not let you travel long distances to play in state teams. Seems like we were rejected from continuing the MBA relationship because of this. Anybody out here know about that???............ On DB's schedule, the Sullivan South game has been played on thursday nights; because of the Bristol Race. The William Blount Administrators had to sign off on playing this game for the next two years on a Thursday night. At first they said no, but then came back and agreed. DB is the team that pushed for this change after South said they would not play DB any more. DB will travel to William Blount next year. TSSAA Re-Classification will happen prior to the 2008 season. It is based on School size. It is my understanding that Mo. West, Daniel Boone, and Maryville have enough students to make the move to 5A. If a schools population numbers drastically change before the next scheduled Re-Classification, the TSSAA can move them up or down but this is rare. Does anybody out there know the exact number of students at Mo. West, Daniel Boone, and Maryville??? I firmly believe that Mo. West will be 5A Region 1 & Maryville 5A Region 2. I am hoping that Daniel Boone makes it to 5A and they move Campbell County to Region 2............ As far as DB's Schedule is concerned, schools go through cycles. Region 1 has been weakened by poor play from Jefferson County. It may be a few more years before they get it turned back around. The right coach could make a big difference. Jeff County and Science have very large student Populations. For Region 1 to be strong those two schools have to get better. Bearden made great strides with their new coach this year and will be of the top teams in Region 1 next season. I believe that DB's schedule by 2008 will be very competitive.

Daniel Boone - 1295

 

Morristown West - 1428

 

Those are the students as of 2005. The Tennessee report card is not up for 2006 yet, but this is taken from the Dept of Education on the Tennessee website.

 

I guess that there is some choice by the school if your rumor is true, because look at Crockett, they have 1628 students as of 2005 and they are still a 4A school with no talk of them moving up.

 

I can't remember if 5A is 1500 or 1400 students. I can see Morristown West having to move up, but I can't see Boone at that level yet. I can see Boone having the number in 4 years, but I can't see them being forced to move next year.

Graham Clark confirmed on the radio today next years out o conference schedule:

Week 0 @ Tennessee

Week 1 @ William Blount

Week 3 Oak Ridge (may have this week incorrect)

Week 6 @ Elizabethton

 

No South on the schedule and no contracts have been signed so this is subject to change.

Why Eliz? Come on these 2 used pack the gates. But now, this is hurting both teams. Eliz gets beat up, while DB doesnt really gain anything. Add Mo West.

 

The TSSAA will reclassify sumtime in the spring. They will announce the new conferences and classifications prior to the 2007-2008 school year.

    • A little confused.  What charter/prep schools made it to state in Baseball?  
    • Fortuitously encountering Clint amidst the ambience of Goodyear this morning sparked an impromptu yet intellectually stimulating conversation, wherein we engaged in a rigorous assessment of prospective candidates for the esteemed role of head football coach. Our discourse, characterized by its spontaneity and depth, led to the formulation of astute observations and discerning judgments regarding the suitability of various individuals for this pivotal position. Allow me to elucidate the fruits of our collaborative contemplation: This commentary endeavors to offer a discerning articulation of my subjective viewpoint, emphasizing a conscientious commitment to maintaining impartiality and refraining from any semblance of derogation directed towards individuals.  Those who possess meritorious qualifications for the esteemed head coaching role, delineated without hierarchical precedence, include: Rennard Woodmore, an esteemed alumnus of the Yellow Jackets, presents a magnificent pedigree, having held prominent positions in head coaching capacities across various regions. His pivotal role as a coordinator for teams contending for state championships further enhances his stature in the realm of football leadership. Kyle Gregory, erstwhile adorned in the resplendent gold insignia, though lacking direct head coaching experience, brings to the fore his invaluable insights garnered as a coordinator for esteemed teams, showcasing an acute understanding of the requisites for triumph whilst attired in the esteemed purple and gold regalia. Steven Jackson, whose contributions transcended mere clipboard duties under the tutelage of Kevin Creasy, emerges as an exceptional candidate for Trousdale County. His prior tenure and triumphs as an assistant coach underscore his suitability for the role. The sole drawback lies in his lack of affiliation with Trousdale County as an alumnus. Brandon Eden's extensive tenure within the chronicles of Trousdale County football, spanning a significant portion of its State Championships, coupled with his successful stints as a coordinator across diverse locales, underscores his candidacy despite a dearth of direct head coaching experience at the high school level. Davy Cothron, while beset by a modest playing career, has emerged as a luminary in offensive strategy, drawing parallels to the transformative appointment of Barker in 2015, thereby warranting consideration for his proven acumen in this realm. Joshua Hackett, notwithstanding his non-alumnus status, has left an indelible imprint across Middle Tennessee, distinguished by his adept curation of formidable defensive units as a coordinator at Watertown, albeit without direct head coaching experience. Kevin Creasy, the epitome of coaching prowess, merits an offer irrespective of his current inclinations, his unparalleled capacity to secure victories transcending geographical and institutional bounds, potentially extending to a role as Director of Schools should it align with his aspirations. Conversely, individuals who have not demonstrably earned the mantle of head coaching, enumerated without sequential precedence, encompass: Brad Waggoner David Barker Paul Pitts Jeremy Pruitt Clint Satterfield Robbie Atwood Wesley Satterfield Ben Johnson BJ West Whom do you all deem most fitting to assume the mantle of the next coach, and what rationale informs your choice? Conversely, whom do you perceive as ill-suited for the role, and what underpins your reasoning for their exclusion?
    • He's a Clinton fan.  But I wouldn't admit that either.  
    • Their any schedule out their for team camp?
    • This sums it all up to perfection.
