Dobyns Bennett Football

[DBTeepee]

As a DB fan, just wait until you guys have to travel and play at schools like Daniel Boone and Volunteer. It will feel like DB dropped down in classification.

 

You're right and that's very disappointing. It may be an overused cliche but "to be the best you have to play the best".

It is an overused cloche, IMO.

 

Maryville and Alcoa don't play the biggest and the baddest each weak, but it doesn't seem to hurt them that much. If you are good, you are good.

 

Maryville and Alcoa are just deep, well coached football teams.

Good post Rolltribe, some of the arrogance that other posters have can be an infection that affects players. The players do sit down to eat dinner with parents, rub shoulders with rest of the student body and have good adult friends everywhere.

 

The King wore a suit of nothing and only a little boy was honest enough to deal with it.

 

I like DB so I am not trashing anyone. I wish you all were still playing this week.

I somewhat look for Dobyns Bennett to be an underdog next year. I think with the new classification, teams such as Science Hill, Sullivan South, and Tennessee High will be more sexy than the Indians. We're old news, with a recent history of not getting it done when it counts to boot. As a sports fan I like the underdog roll, I wonder if the kids will too. All of the previous is IMO.

But how much improvement will a team make between the first game and the playoffs if they are playing inferior talent?

Looking at the roster from this year, I see we will lose 29 seniors, 17 of which made significant contributions this season on offense and defense.

Please explain.

DB has a history of reloading rather than rebuilding. It's not always true, but it is most years. I remember the year they beat MBA in the first game, which was also supposed to be a rebuilding year. Never underestimate GC (at least in the regular season).

Yet again, does anybody know the 2009 weekly schedule for Dobyns Bennett?
