last years coalfield hampton game it was freezing!!

Yeah, I opted to stay home for that one! It must have been cold outside because I listened to the game on the radio and had central heat going, a portable heater in front of me, and wrapped up in a blanket and was still cold!! I wonder how cold it'll be for the rematch Friday? I was considering going, but if it's too cold, I might just make a pot of coffee, crank up WECO and kick back in my recliner like last year! What is the forecast for East Tennessee games Friday anyway?

The 1975 Maryville vs. Ketron (Kingsport) playoff game. 19 degrees at the end of the game with a stiff breeze.

 

My dad attended the 1950 Tennessee-Kentucky game. After a freak blizzard that weekend, more than a foot of snow fell at Neyland Stadium and the game time temp was 12 degrees. Dad said people actually set fire to the old wooden bleachers inside the stadium to keep warm.

    • No reasonable lawyer would take up this case. I am not a lawyer, but I know school law in and out.  Similar situations just like this play out thousands of times each year across the country, even at the college level (i.e. Ole Miss)  The Plaintiff's never win...ever.  If I am wrong, please provide a legal precedent for me. I will be waiting.  https://www.espn.com/college-football/story/_/id/39431892/judge-drops-ole-miss-player-lawsuit-lane-kiffin  
    • Yes Justin Cruse was named head coach
    • It used to be, I think it still is, a change of 20% +/- gives reason to reclassify. Schools can choose to play up classifications but not down. Here is the mid cycle reclassification info on TSSAA.org When Memphis East changed from a regular public school to an "all-optional" school in 2017 the would've dropped to A but chose to stay in AAA in basketball (baseball, and softball) Penny was still coaching there and with the players they had they would've beaten A teams by 40 and slept walked to the championship. Other Memphis schools stayed in their classifications (mostly in basketball) until the next reclassification cycle. Of course this is the same time that a 4th class was added basketball.
