Interested in hearing how things are shaping up for this season, scrimmage results, jamboree etc. East is going into their third year of competition with new coaches and a new region....... I would hope that some excitement around the program would be building.

 

We all know that the east faithful (myself included) are able to put together a negative thread, let see if we can get something positive going and get behind the coaches and players.

 

How are things going at east? Whats the good word????

I hope they do well this year, My cousin plays for them. I know that the new Head Coach is a nice guy, his assistants are Phillips- Last year Offensive cor.???? , New coach , Coach Spatts, my cousin really likes him, not sure of his football resume , Another coach named Manor, I think he is from Centerville, and another newest addition coach Copley he is from the Jr. Pro league in East what i have been told. As far as the game ??????? Dont want to be negative ,but he said it looks like the same team, no new looks, but the kids are happy I guess. I think they have 2 scrimmages this week. I am Graduated now and dont leave until November, so i will be at Fairview and East games as much as possible.

I was at the Scrimmage against Houston County, they looked ok, I dont think the Coach looked at any tapes from last year, still some key changes need to be made, to gain positive yardage,# 22 needs to get the ball, #24 just dont have it........sorry, he should be blocking for #22. I hated to see Coach Jones go, but the new Coach seems like a nice guy, I think he should of cleaned house though. I looks like the same team as last year, All we can do is keep hoping for the best, we shall see how it unfolds.

Yes they will have plenty of Seniors, the spread system is not easy to learn, I predict a suprising season for the new Coach. The Seniors (most) have been starters since sophmore year so that will make a difference when the season gets rolling. Word is, this new Coach does seem to be pretty smart and willing to do what it takes to win., it may take a few games to get rolling, but the group he has should win some games this year.

    • Dyersburg is going to be good, really good. As mentioned, they have a lot of talent on the way and the trio of Chelby, Joya, and KayKay will only be better with a full season together under their belt. To me, playing in Murfreesboro two consecutive postseasons will only serve to make them more dangerous if/when they stand among the final eight teams this March. Experience, good or bad, always makes you better. And not only do they have experience, they know how to win there. Schedules are coming together for all of the teams and I am excited about what I am seeing on the preliminary drafts on Dyersburg’s schedule. I know I am being a tease, but it’s simply not my place to announce what another school is doing. With that said, I won’t go into specifics. However, I am excited about renewed home and away contracts for the non-district portion of the calendar. I think west Tennessee will have a lot of interest as well.
    • What does everyone have in the final 8? In no particular order. 1. Eagleville 2. Gordonsville 3. Greenback 4. Oakdale 5. South Pitt/ East Robertson-- not sure 6. Richland 7. Halls 8. Union City
    • They struggled to field a team last year. I don’t see them being much better?
    • sx good two know thay didun't waint that entarr citty two see yeller/red......
    • Couldn’t agree more.. Tate is a special kinda player , but fortunately for us we get a best of 3 series. I think our pitching is better than last year when we made the trip to west tn. Should be a fun 2 or 3 games.
