Thanks for your well wishes. I haven't been to E-town in about 15 years, but it was the same as you described. First time for a football game, so I'm excited about that. Since your Tornadoes aren't playing Friday you can take a peek at whats happening with the game by tuning into 96.3FM. The transmitter is in S.Knoxville so hopefully you can pick it up. It's our first year for a complete radio broadcast of our games so don't be too critical

 

Footballdad, you all are doing a great job. Exciting game to listen to. I will be at the CAK/Alcoa game next week but will listen to your broadcast...........be nice now :thumb: Have to admit pulling hard for the Cyclones. 4 min. left in the game. GO TORNADOS!

yeah, Our starter QB went down but was slow jogging down the sideline after half time. The other injuries, #18 and #14 didn't stand back up the rest of the game.

 

plain and simple those missed FGs cost us a win.

 

Some quick stats: CAK averages about 300 yrds/game but were held to 199 tonight. EHS had 185 yards as well...the actual numbers might be a bit different if you count the rushing yards etc. But overall EHS did better then I expected. CAK managed to squeeze by us this time :popcorneater:

 

The game was good and CAK fans were good but there was this one Armchair Coach from CAK that yelled the whole time. It was tolerable until our player Hodge(#14) got injured while making a great catch for a first down and the guy continued to yell about how we didn't get the 1st down even though we had a guy down and everyone was silent, fans across the stadium heard that clown and it was was very poor showing and he did a GREAT job of representing a CHRISTIAN academy. I felt sorry for the respectful CAK fans that were there for having t claim that fool. One of EHS former students told him to shut up and he replied with "Bring it" and this was from a grown man telling a college kid to "bring it" lol

Good game. I am a Cyclone "homer", but sat on the CAK side and had a nice conversation with a couple of CAK fans the whole game. Neither offense gained over 200 yards. The CAK defense stuffed the Cyclone run all night and that was the key to the win. The Cyclone receivers, especially Zach Boles, were every bit as good as CAK's. Both teams had several turnovers and lots of penalties. The missed extra point and field goals may have cost Betsy, but the injuries are my main concern. QB Ryan Thomas, WR/FS/Kicker Taylor Hodge, and DE Alec Whitehead all went down and did not return. Congratulations to CAK. You are good and did what you had to do to win. Good luck against Alcoa and if we see you again in the playoffs it will be another good game.

    • He resigned smh, and have you ever heard of charged but not convicted. Some people in this county baffle me with their need to slander others. Have you asked any of the 30+ parents that signed a petition to get him reinstated at the board meeting this week how they feel about this? Just let it play out, at the end of the day the only people that will bring TC back are the ones that know what its about at its core.    People hate losing and they aren't used to it at TC. I for 1, and I'm sure others too, understand having a dip in talent and not being able to compete for a state title every year. But in the past, TC teams have outworked more talented teams, they didn't continuously lose the turnover battle, they didn't commit 8+ penalties in several games each season, and I believe several of the folks in town that want Blake out feel as if he is neglecting the history of the program. This is from a source that used to be extremely close to the program (not me lol), Blake gets out of school midday and the players show up and there is no practice plan or itinerary.  I also understand those that are on team Blake, when he has loads of talent, he wins. He does know football and he is a tremendous DC, and if the rumors are true then he will do great things. As for the board member issue, it is what it is, everyone that's true to the county know that and nothing has changed. I agree though that they should strive to make the facilities as good as we can. And as far as potential candidates, I agree there is very few options. West, Vetetoe (yes I know), and couple others that could have some interest. Whatever happens is massive for the program during a pivotal time before the next big wave of stars make their way through. 
    • McKenzie had no trouble with Huntingdon.  
    • Has BA landed any cornfed cowboys to block up front?
    • 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.
