I actually posted this last week in the baseball and football forums. I didn't mention the name, but I suspected that Greenway was the one.

 

Here was the thread/topic http://tennessee.coacht.com/boards/index.p...howtopic=171458 That post has the link to the newspaper article and the text from the article. Apparently, the school tried to keep it quiet, but someone emailed the video to the newspaper.

 

The big question will be whether or not Greenway is admitted back into Greeneville High after being sent to the alternative school. Since there were so many cell phones involved, I can't believe the video isn't on you tube.

I know I couldn't reply to that so I came to this topic.

 

Whoever emailed the details to the newspaper had everything twisted. There was no verbal disagreement, just boys saying they are big and bad and then someone being challenged. Nobody was mad at anybody. Its amazing how word of mouth can get details misplaced and twisted to the way that sounds worse or best to their needs.

Where you there during this incident? If so, what's the deal with this statement from the video?

 

"the youth who subsequently was punched, allegedly told the youth who delivered the punch "If you'll just stop this, I'll give you your best shot at me."

 

What's the story? Are you saying that the reporter watched the video, but was mistaken about the events that transpired?

If an individual can hit someone with the ferocity that the video showed and the individual that threw the punch is not mad or angry in any way, that in and of itself would indicate severe behavorial and/or emotional problems.

I'm assuming that the video is making the rounds? How badly was the kid injured?

I've seen the video, an there was no arguing whats so ever an i have talked to people that were there an they said they were just goofing around. the kid that got punched was telling greenway were to punch him. an greenway did. The newspaper does have the story all twisted an who ever called them an told them about it added some things to the story. From what i have heard greenway will be in ALP the rest of the year an the school has not sure if he is going to be able to play next year.

yup

 

If he doesn't get to play next year that will be sad I was looking forward to seeing him play again this year. It will be even sadder if it is indeed just a story being twisted around. With cell phones around everywhere kids really have to watch what they do nowadays, back in the good ole days we didn't have to worry about this and an incident like this was was the norm and was never heard of outside. I hope he gets to play and hope we beat them devils this year!

Bottom line is those kids are team mates. Any kid that could do that to someone on their own team is a bad apple. The way he hit that kid showed that he has some problems and the intent was there to hurt him badly. He shouldn't be allowed to play another down anywhere. Also this was during school f so where is the supervision of the coach? Shouldn't he have some questions to answer as well? If I was the boys parents who got hit could you smell lawsuit?

      Good ole Bradley Zulliger. He was a really good QB @ OR. Fun to watch.  Wore #15 and was like a mini Tebow, with the exception of being right handed. He could take a pounding and keep on ticking. Played with a collapsed lung against Powell that year. Tough as nails.

      2024 5A Season

      They should be pretty good in year two for Rang.  Replacing most of the offensive production losing Dozier, Hayward and Rembert , but they're are skill kids in place ready for their shot.  I know I say this every year, but the o line should show improvement after two years in Rang and Kevin Day's weight program.  I still would favor West over Plow and OR come November.  The Rebs will have to grow up a bunch between now and then, and will probably take some lumps along the way with that schedule.  But I predict come playoff time they will be ready.   One of their coaches half joked to me that they could go 5-5 regular season and win the state championship.  Ha ha.

      Dyersburg may win back to back to back championships. They are going to be hands down the best 3A team. Plus their District/region/sectionals are not very good. They basically just have to make it to region out of a 5 team district that has a few decent teams. South Gibson will be okay but they graduate their best player and there is nobody in the region 7 or region 8 who is going to compete with them.

      Who vandalized Maryville's Football Field?

      By BarneySox2007 · Posted

      I remember very well watching things change in the late 80's and yes it's all schools. Most people that are in charge today have any idea because they were raised and taught under this social experiment so they don't have a clue. Anyone that does see the truth for what it is usually try and hide it by blending in so that the School Gestapo doesn't round them up and take them to the Fuhrer ( kindly putting it ). Yes it is all schools not just Maryville. This train ride is not headed in a good direction and if the public had seen a movie of what's happening now back in 1980 everyone would have been headed home afterwards to change underware.
