Does Pigeon Forge Have Any Winners?

I originally posted this in the class A section. Sorry for the mistake.

 

I took a trip up the the UT game this past weekend. While killing some time the next day on UT's campus I bought a Knoxville News Sentinel. While reading the sports page I came to an article on PX3 titled Batts goes to bat for Gibbs. Something startled me about the article. A big quote was out to the side from Pigeon Forge's coach Lee Hammonds. It states "We've got some winners on this team, but I don't know if we have enough". How does that make his team feel? I've seen Pigeon Forge play a few times while visiting their area over the years. I've seen many times how this team can do well running the ball only to have the coach change to spreading it out and trying to throw only to get shut down. This team's had some promise but it seems like it's their coach gets in their way. Maybe his quote should have been "We've got some winners on this team, unfortunately I am not one of them...........

Does PF have anything for Cosby this week should be the question right now. Cosby got the Tigers last time they played at the Nest. Both teams looking for their first win of the season we'll see who wans to turn this year around and who's ready to lay down this friday.

It is gonna take some strong defensive practices and playing for PF to win....Offensively we played very well for the first quarter and half at Gibbs last Friday night and was tied at 7 with about 6 minutes left in the half before the defense self imploded. It was very frustrating watching it go from 7-7 with 6:30 or so left to 28-7 before the half was over. Hope they can get things worked out on the defensive side of play or its gonna be a longgggggggggggggg year.
