That is a change. In the past, they would refuse to shake hands, the coach would bad mouth opposing players on the field, and they would get red cards often. Maybe they have rounded a corner, but I'll wait to pass judgement.

Did I mention run up the score?

 

This must have been years ago..cause i dont remember any of this..an this is my 2nd year on the team but i came to the games before

Portland won 3-1 over Dekalb County. This was a well played game. Dekalb runs a very effective trap. Portland was called for offsides 10 times. Portland scored 3 goals by 3 different players. Each of those goalscorers were sophomores. Dekalb got in a goal in the last 2 minutes of the game. Great ball through.

 

Good game to both teams and good luck to both in their districts

 

I think highly of the Dekalb team after seeing them play last night. I was impressed with their coach and their players. Classy organization

 

 

Does anyone think they can beat a strong station camp team this year??? 8-0 win over Portland... not to mention the 6 goals scored in the first twenty minutes. and then another 8-0 the next day to Macon Co. and a 5-1 win over friendship? and Portland is a very classy organization as well don't leave them out. very impressed with there effort and sportsmanship. good luck to all teams in the rest of their seasons

First of all, how did station camp get brought up?

 

However, since they have been brought up, I'll say what I've said all year- watch out for station camp. This is a very under rated team and thats saying something because most teams are afraid of them. But not enough. This team is GOOD. very good. Need I remind you that they went to the state tourney last year and lost only one senior? Great team. They'll go deep into the postseason

 

As far as portland goes, class doesn't win games. Effort wins games but even that isn't enough sometimes. They're a good team but they need to prove themselves. I don't care how good SC is, 8-0 is unacceptable. I just hope they're getting better and not making excuses. Time will tell

 

District 7, be prepared for some good teams in the region

Wow, what class? Talk about the pot calling the kettle black, you've spent the entire season trying to trash me to the refs and anyone else who would listen. For the record we've never refused to shake hands, just for one instance, I distinctly remember leaving your field to chants of "Retartdo" coming from your locker room (directed at Recardo one of our players), We've only had two straight reds in the 13 seasons(boys&girls) that I've coached (you had 3 in one game last season), You coach your team to pick a fight with our best player to get him kicked out, then cheered when he got a second yellow, so don't worry I HAVE PASSED JUDGEMENT, I used to respect your team. PS 8-0 over York "run up the score?"

I have nothing but respect for Station Camp and region 8. There was not been a boys team from region 7 make it to the Region Finals since LA did four year ago. I've seen most of region 8 and it may be 5 years straight. I bet one team hang 10 goals on another this year.

 

must be having trouble reading this is district 7 go start your own for 8 we dont care dont start bashing any teams

Great Game From DeKalb last night.....DeKalb had a lot of chances to put the ball into the net last night and just couldnt do it. La's Goal should not have went in. DeKalbs Goalie seemed like he reacted slowly to the shot and it kinda kept fading to the left. How do they do the tie breaker?

 

 

i wish i knew lol.. goal differential maybe..

    • I've always been a football fan first and then if you have a band that's awesome.No question that DB has one of the best bands in the country and the whole region should attend at least one DB game just to see their band. I don't know if Nick Saban could come to Kingsport and build a football program that could match the Dobyns Bennett band's success.That said,as mentioned before, a couple of things would have to change in order for the Tribe to just win a state championship on the field.Besides a program that starts from the peewee teams and goes all the way to J Fred with all coaches and weight training { in time }on the same page. Sometimes it also takes a little luck like the 1998 Vols .There are a lot of great athletes at a lot of big schools around the state and just because you want something doesn't mean your going to build a program like Alcoa has. Yes,start at the bottom and have guys that are quality coaches teaching at every level is 100% the first step. Parents can make it a lot easier by getting their young athletes into an early start with conditioning and weights as well when they are old enough to lift.If your son is a man in the weight room before he gets to DB , then it won't take a "Dobbs" coach to make him competitive against other schools athletes when it comes to strength.
    • Dyersburg scrimmaged South Gibson last week
    • A complete cultural change happened at Greeneville and the administration and community opened up their checkbooks.  What a lot of people don't know is Ballard was Zeller's OC for many years and stopped coaching for two years because Zeller and Ballard didn't see eye to eye on some things.  Zeller lead Greeneville to it's first ever Semi Final appearance in 2000 and lost 28-12 at Maryville and had them in the Quarter Finals in 2002 and 2003.  Z was a great coach but lost some control when it came to making workouts mandatory. (He learned from that Mistake and it was at LC when i coached with him.).  Z was let go going into my Senior Year and was replaced by Steve McCurry who was the one that turned the program around.  Steve had won a 4a state championship at AC Reynolds in Asheville and made the administration completely redo the weight room with new equipment, had a football period at the end of the school day to lift, started devil camp, and brought in coaches like Danny Bentley (Still the OL coach), Ballard as the OC, Cody Baugh (QB coach and still there), and even Spradlen who is Greeneville's head coach now as the DB's Coach.  McCurry only coached for two seasons at Greeneville and took a team that had a losing record the year before and finished my Senior Year making it to the Quarters and having a 10-3 record and then followed it up with a Semi Final appearance the next year with an 11-3 record and back to back conference championships.  Loved McCurry to death but the recession hit and the story i heard was he was still buying new equipment for the team that the Principal didn't authorize and his response was "I don't answer to you and only to Niswonger and Bewley" (Two huge donors).  That was it for him and they Promoted Ballard shortly after that.   Greeneville had always been relevant ever since the the late 70's under Coach Fred Sorrell's.  Since Sorrell's took over in 1977 Greeneville overall winning percentage is over 76%.  The biggest reason people might not have thought Greeneville was "Good" until Ballard was Greeneville always played up Classification wise and could never get over the hump. (When there were 3 classifications we played 3a, when it went to 5 we played 4a).  Greeneville is the largest its ever been with 953 students and where playing teams 2 or 3 times there size back in the day (I had a little over 800 kids in the school when i graduated in 2008).  Other teams always would know they would be sore after a game but depth took over and never won a Championship until Greeneville played in the classification the TSSAA actually assigned them. You had names like Dustin Moore (1993 Mr Football for 3a and who Phillip Fulmer said was one of the greatest athletes he ever recruited), James "Mud Turtle" Mayes, Brigham Lyons, Byron Gillespie, Frankie Debusk (National Champion Qb at Furman with GQ), Jasmine Lowery, Cody Baugh, The Greenway Brothers, Joe Watson (Furman), etc.  Now the cultural is from the Pee Wee league up and you grow up as a young kid wanting to wear the Greene and White.  Here is a really good link when it comes to anything Greeneville Football related. https://greenevillefootball.com/   I also don't coach anymore.  Z told me i was to smart with how the school systems are ran these days and ended up going into real estate in Knoxville which has been a great decision for my life.
    • Yes, they will. I'm wondering what kinds of strides Sale Creek will make heading into the second season under Coach Fitz.
    • No yellow stripes on the rug last night. Biggest crowd I’ve seen at 825 since the alco debacle.
