Recommended Posts

Oak Ridge and D-B fans remember to enjoy the tailgate dinner sponsored by the D-B PTSA...it will be in the dry of the lobby of the Buck Van Huss Dome...Pratt's Bar-B-Q pulled pork or chicken sandwiches, beans, cole slaw, dessert, and tea; only $ 6.00.

 

We have seen so many classics between these two fine institutions, I hope tonight can also qualify as one to remember. What is the status of the two linemen discussed previously as possibly not playing for the "Cats"?...they are listed on the probable starter line-ups I have seen...

 

Rain is still falling in Kingsport...

 

On a personal note, many of you Oak Ridge fans have spoken with or to one of the D-B faithful on here (and all the D-B fans know him) Art Vandalay, well Art's wife has had some medical concerns and could sure use some good thoughts and prayers...so...thank you for your time in that regard...

 

Everybody please drive safely, enjoy the game; let's appreciate these young men and woman as they are, as Coach Clark puts it "trying their best to be great"...

 

Good luck and good health to the Wildcats.

It has been raining pretty good all day...100% chance of afternoon rain (calling for some hard rain) changing to 40% tonight, so it should rain all game and temps in the 70's (brrrrrr). As far as umbrellas, there is a sign in the stadium stating that umbrella use is discouraged (or words to that affect)...so bring your poncho

 

According to WCYB channel 5, the rain should be east of the Tri-Cities by 7pm. It is just west of us now, and moving fast.

    • That was after the 2nd year of a 4 year cycle.  Since Covid we have been on a 2 year cycle.  So, there really isn't a "mid cycle" reclassification this time.   Idk if there's anything in place to address the issue of a school closing.  My guess is, nothing can be done.  This would be akin to the 1st year of a 4 year cycle, where a school has the 20% +/- but not allowed or even have the option to move up or down.
    • 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.
