I noticed several Forrest folks at the JB/E. Robertson game back in week 1. I asked one of them if they were scouting and he said yes. Any Forrest folks (on coach t) go to that game? If so, what'd you think of JB?

 

Probably not many adults made the trip.

 

 

Does Forrest have a local paper that reports on their football team. We have the Robertson County Times.

 

Yes, The Marshall Tribune. It comes out twice a week, and one full time sports reporter covers all three high schools, middle schools, etc. in every sport. The guy who used to have that job covers Lewisburg and Cornersville sometimes. A Lewisburg lady wrote a letter to the editor a couple of weeks ago complaning about how Chapel Hill (Forrest) got all the coverage. BooHoo. We got the short end of the stick for a lot of years. The online version isn't worth much.

Bummer I was hoping to read some articles on how your year was going. I'm not sure that the East game would do much to help anyway. We have improved a lot since that game.

All I'll say for now, is keep your heads up, Rockets. Don't let the name "Jo Byrns" do to you what "Moore County" did to teams in years past (yes, I am old). Any team can win or lose on any given night. Believe in yourselves like your fans believe in you. You can beat anybody you want. Make us proud!! Go Rockets!!

 

 

Couldnt have said it better myself. The main obstacle the Rockets have to overcome is the name Jo Byrns, and all of their studs are gone from last year. Sure they are 4-0, but they have beaten a 1-3 East Robertson team, an 0-4 Clarksville Academy squad, 1-3 Unionville, and last week beat an "ok" MTCS team with a 3-1 record. So their opponents have a combined 5-11 record. They are ranked as high as they are, like many others in the rankings because of reputation. They can be easy beaten with a little confidence.

 

Bottom line is, neither of these teams have has a legitimate test this season. I think Nan hit the nail on the head with the MC- JB analogy. Any team is beatable on any night as long as you believe it is possible.

I don't know him, but the way he came out and tee-d off on Joe Burns was pretty impressive.

One other thing, you missed the best 1A half time show you'll see this year. Community and Cascade's bands performed last week and I don't think you'll ever see two better 1A bands on the same field at halftime............ Okay, I'm now editing this post because I have myself wondering if I'm talking to the right person. For some reason I was thinking that Lee was "VoiceoftheRockets"... Do I have the right person or not?

I thought he did, too. I sent him a PM the other day to see if he was alive. Can't believe he's in Corn-town. /roflolk.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":roflolk:" border="0" alt="roflolk.gif" />

    • Yea I agree I will say tho I was a big “ v “ fan if an  opening ever did happen I think it would’ve been good to see him have a shot coming from a power house like Oakland. I’m sure he’s learned a lot from Kevin.  I bet he would bring a really good offense scheme IMO But after all this I just dunno anymore.  Whatever happens with the rumors an such if it did come to and opening I think this messes it all up.  The board members dreams are slowly slipping away now. I haven’t lived there for awhile I just hear what I hear, but my question is would there be any good potential candidates?? That’s why I don’t understand why people want b s out so bad who else could do any better ?? IMO there’s nothing attractive about it? As I stated earlier I went to the last game last year and taking a leak in a porta Potty is pretty sad and still nothing being done they say .. 
    • I have a sophomore that can do 177 (preferred) or 192. Sent you an email.
    • speaking of board members how can a man get arrested 12 days ago and still be head coaching a team in TC school system? looks like your right about the tc board members. I bet it would be different if they had a kid on the team 
    • Grandma from Heaven looking down at the field to see if that gulley washer rain this past weekend sent to make a dent on that paint that some are claiming washes off of turf. Nope looks like Krylon Tough Coat.
    • I was just talking to a guy the other night about the basketball impact.
