I live in west Tenn. and didn"t make the game either. I spoke to people who went, they believe that they had somewhat of a let down after that emotional game against Fayette-Ware. The defense was solid as usual but the offense was sluggish to start the game. East played hard because that game was their state playoff game.

I would like to welcome all Northside fans to Orangemound. I am a Melrose grad and my wife is a Northside grad. We live and work in Jackson but we own property across the street from Melrose stadium. We will sponsor a joint tailgate for fans of both schools so that fans can socialize before and after the game. The tailgate will start around 5pm complete with smoking grills and live music. GO INDIANS/GO GOLDEN WILDCATS

Henry County has played at Melrose each of the last two years. The hospitality was great and the food was wonderful. One of the greatest venues in Tennessee for high school football.

THANKS GUYS,THESE COMMENTS ARE VERY REASSURING TO THE JNS FANS. WE HAVE BEEN HEARING HORROR STORIES ABOUT THE CARS PARKED OUTSIDE THE STADIUM IN YEARS PAST. WE LOOK FORWARD TO THE GAME BUT ARE JUST A LITTLE NERVOUS ABOUT THE SURROUNDINGS. SOUNDS LIKE THE NEGATIVE TALK MAY BE JUST RUMORS. LOOKING FORWARD TO A GOOD NIGHT AT THE MOUND.

Of all the out of town teams that have come and played in Orange Mound, including Hillsboro and Jackson Central Merry, my favorite would have to be the Henry County fans. We played them the last two years in Da Mound and they are truly great fans who really follow their school. We made friends with several fans who we allowed to park on our property and tailfgate with us before and after the games. This is what High school ball is all about. They promised us the same hospitality if we came to Henry County. Northside fans don't worry you will treated with the same kind of hospitality. Just try and get there early, lets say around 5pm or so. Ask anyone from JCM and they will tell you that there were not any problems at all. Just follow the grill smoke down Park avenue and it will lead you directly to Melrose stadium.

YOU'RE RIGHT THIS IS WHAT HIGH SCHOOL BALL IS ABOUT AND IT'S A SHAME THAT THESE WORRIES ARE EVEN INVOLVED AT ALL. THANKS IN ADVANCE FOR YOUR HOSPITALITY. WILL I BE ABLE TO RECOGNIZE YOUR PROPERTY IN ANY WAY WHEN I SEE IT ORANGEMOUND4EVER? HOPE YOUR NEIGHBORS THERE ARE AS CORDIAL AS YOU SEEM TO BE. LOOKING FORWARD TO THE FOOD AND FELLOWSHIP FRIDAY NIGHT.

Don't listen to the horror stories. The people treated us great. Just don't eat on the way there. You want to save plenty of room for their food.

 

 

THANK YOU FOR THE REST OF THE STORY. LOOKING FORWARD TO THE FOOD AND THE GAME. IT'S BEEN A LONG TIME SINCE NORTH SIDE HAS BEEN TO A PLAYOFF.

    • The winds of change are blowing in Hartsville.     Will be an interesting follow.    Would go back to the 90s and turn black the clock!
    • Did he promise you a coordinator job or something if he ever got a head coaching job? He resigned? He was at the top of the dugout last night calling plays. I wonder if those 30+ parents would let him give their kids a ride. by the way the board meeting was last night and it was not mentioned. must have been at the work session earlier this week which is not public. must be trying to keep it quiet.  Since you know so much, how much is Robbie Atwood willing to pay Adam Cothron?  Didn't you slander Eden earlier on here? You also didn't know he was a faculty coach again so how much do you really know? Some people outside this county baffle me with their need to slander others.    
    • He resigned smh, and have you ever heard of charged but not convicted. Some people in this county baffle me with their need to slander others. Have you asked any of the 30+ parents that signed a petition to get him reinstated at the board meeting this week how they feel about this? Just let it play out, at the end of the day the only people that will bring TC back are the ones that know what its about at its core.    People hate losing and they aren't used to it at TC. I for 1, and I'm sure others too, understand having a dip in talent and not being able to compete for a state title every year. But in the past, TC teams have outworked more talented teams, they didn't continuously lose the turnover battle, they didn't commit 8+ penalties in several games each season, and I believe several of the folks in town that want Blake out feel as if he is neglecting the history of the program. This is from a source that used to be extremely close to the program (not me lol), Blake gets out of school midday and the players show up and there is no practice plan or itinerary.  I also understand those that are on team Blake, when he has loads of talent, he wins. He does know football and he is a tremendous DC, and if the rumors are true then he will do great things. As for the board member issue, it is what it is, everyone that's true to the county know that and nothing has changed. I agree though that they should strive to make the facilities as good as we can. And as far as potential candidates, I agree there is very few options. West, Vetetoe (yes I know), and couple others that could have some interest. Whatever happens is massive for the program during a pivotal time before the next big wave of stars make their way through.
