You may be right about the records for junior games in the last three years, Madisonvile and Vonore have made improvements in their youth programs over the last few years, while Sweetwater ( which is unusual ) has had some questionable Coaches and Coaching! Also Coaches that think you stick with one system no matter what age or what players you have. I could go alot more into this, but thats a whole other story. Let me say this I am complimenting your feeder programs, they are getting much better, but the team with the best tallent doesn't always win. Their also seems to be an increase in parents not letting players play till they get to Highschool. Sweetwater has good players coming up! That said, this is how I think it could go. 2008 Sweetwater wins again next year, they still have several good players coming back in the skill positions and on the line, but the score will be around what it was this year . Sequoyah has their best chance to win the County Championship in 2009 and 2010. Not saying they will Sweetwater could easily continue the streak, but their should be some tough games for a couple years. After that Sweetwater gets strong again for a few more years. Times are changing, it would be unrealistic to think that Sweetwater could continue to dominate Madisonville and Sequoyah like they have always. Madisonville and Vonore are really growing and they are a larger school, with more population. It's just not like it used to be anymore, parents have changed, kids are spoiled more than ever and soft. But that being said, Sweetwater will for many more years to come win more games than they lose to Sequoyah. Thats just the facts.

. All disagreements aside I do wish Sequoyah luck the rest of the year and hope the Chiefs go far, I would love to see more County teams make the play-offs!

 

Unfortunately,you are correct about players walking the halls of each school that could really help each team. I wish all three county teams were in the playoffs each year. Some good players get overlooked by college coaches for that very reason. Good luck to the Cats the rest of the year. Already looking forward to next year. I do disagree with your so-called facts. I don't believe the dominance will continue. As a matter of fact, I believe the series will swing beginning in the near future. That is my opinion on the condition we keep our coaches for the next several years.

Sequoyah is not Madisonville High School. It is a combination of Madisonville and

Vonore. We are 3a and Sweetwater should be proud to have (been) so dominant of such a large school. But, as was proven Friday night, changes have begun. We are improving and Sweetwater had all they could handle this year.

Maybe you should think about your posts before you post or change your name to flip flop.

 

In your first post you said, "From seeing the two teams on Friday night, I'll pick Sweetwater by 35". In your next post you said, "I feel that after watching SQHS last Friday, they are much improved this year". Then, two posts later, you said "Let's don't compare teams from the Jamboree". In your dum dum criticism post you said, "Officials are brought in from all over, so don't blame that lame excuse on you guys getting beat!!!". Then, when the game wasn't a blowout, you said "the REFS stunk!!!! Some of the calls were GOD awful". If you make a rule, stick to it!

Finally: You said, "Sequoyah was pumped after the game, because they played GOOD, but Sweetwater was mad even though they won. That's why Sequoyah will never beat GOOD OLE SHS on a consistent basis".

I say that Sequoyah was pumped after the game because, for the first time in a long time, we have a coaching staff with the ability to build a team that can win games and Sweetwater was sad because they recognized the beginning of the end. That's why GOOD OLE SHS had better be ready for a change in the "win / loss" stats.

Good luck to you guys for the rest of the season and for years to come. I hope you win out this year and go 9 and 1 next year.

First off congrats to Sequoyah they came in with heart and played as a team. Great job, but don't read to much into it. Sweetwater came in very uninspired, thinking they could just show up and win without putting forth the effort. Thats noway to come into a reg. 2 game unless you want to go home with an L! I believe if they played again it would be like it should've a 35 point win, same thing for the end of the season if they met again, a 35 point win. Sweetwater didn't show much, it was plain to see that if Sweetwater threw the ball their skill people would simply outjump the Seq dbs like they did the few times they threw the ball. The holding pen. 8 for Sw 0 for Seq. Come on, an Official could call a hold on 33% of the downs if they wanted to. There were deffinitly some on Seq that should've been called! All were good calls, ofcourse you would say that, you are from Seq. If it would've been the other way I wonder if you would've said that, I think not. Now Im do wish our County rival luck the rest of the year, and hope they make the play-offs, but don't look for GP to come in and play uninspired ball. I do hope you beat them though. The future is bright for Seq, keep up the good work!!! I would'nt trade places though, the same players coming in the next few years are the same ones that beat Mad and Von in youth football most years. The Cats still have good players coming back next year, and as always watch for Sweetwater to reload, hence the 38 -3 record over the last 41 years!

Everything aside I don't blame you guys for being excited and good luck the rest of the year!!!!!!!! I love the new attitude at Seq, work together play for eachother, and don't give up, thats what a team is all about!

Sweetwater showed what they had! No coach would have been comfortable with such a small lead. If they could have put any more points on the board they would have. Your receivers were tall and talented but the coverage was right there. A ball thrown slightly off was too risky or more would have been thrown. The refs called a good game. The Sequoyah coaches teach the players to follow the rules and obviously, they do. The Sweetwater coaches either don't teach their players to follow the rules or the players don't listen to them. Sequoyah brought competition to Sweetwater, and Sweetwater answered the call. I doubt that the Sweetwater players woke up on Saturday morning wishing that Sequoyah had played or hit any harder. Sweetwater played tougher and won the game. Congratulations on a well played and well coached game! Your team has a lot to look forward to.

 

Notice that after I gave the compliment above, I didn't take it back by throwing in a bunch of "ifs" and "buts". That would have turned the compliment into an insult.

 

Good Luck!

Thank you for more compliments followed by excuses! Do you think Sweetwater has the only feeder program with these problems and situations? You're a joke! That's just the facts.

    • They did a 10 play series deal instead of down and distance. LC scored twice but if it had been an actual game neither would have mattered because they turned over the ball twice with Sweetwater forcing fumbles both times. LC only scored on the 2nd stringers as well. Defense is looking solid and the offense has a good running back and receiver who did not play last year but made several great catches during the scrimmage, I believe the cats had some key pieces missing with baseball and track still being in season at the time. Considering the wildcats were matched up against a 5A school the cats held their own and forced multiple turnovers while also creating scoring opportunities against the LC defense.

I spent 27 years, faithfully in the United States Military. I don’t know if it was because I am Black or an easy target”
    • I don’t see any of them guys why leave programs to go there with no community backing or anything. Word up here on the hill is davy and veto into it over whose kid should be q b for jr high. Tough times in tc hope it all changes with a new face. And once again we aren’t giving up shoulders. And he doesn’t want that crap down there lol
    • They had the toughest bracket last year and no one said a word. You will never make everyone happy. Someone is always complaining. 
    • Whoever gets hired I don’t think they will be there long, they’ll get ran out of town because they can’t win a tough region with a pee wee team.
