Hey Grunt: You know exactly why no ink for Gville and TC - the schools are not located in Metro Nashville. The best two teams in their classification in TN and can't get any recogination. If either/both were in Nashville, the sports section would be full about each team. Now let it be MBA, BA, CPA and so on, you can't read enough about them. Good luck to both teams sthe rest of the year.

 

Uhhh...Smith County and Trousdale County are both in the Metropolitan area. The Tennessean probably has more readers and subscribers closer to Nashville who knew nothing of this game or cared about it. They've got to follow their demographics and if the majority of their readers are supporters of other teams than this can be expected.

You can make whatever you want out of "the Metropolitan area", I suppose. Fact is, as everyone

in this area knows, if you're not bordering Davidson Co., you're pretty much S--- out of luck, when

it comes to sports coverage. Been that way as long as I can remember. They also sell quite a few

papers in this area as well. Doesn't count for much. Also doesn't hurt to be a private school either.

Regardless, congrats to G'ville for another win. Keep it rolling....

The Gville-TC game was mentioned twice in the Tennessean before the game. They wrote it up, made predictions, and mentioned players.

After the game, they didn't even print a score. That's what was being discussed. The Cookeville paper didn't write anything up about it afterward when they did the same thing as the Tennessean pregame.

And, as far as I know there is nothing metropolitan about Gordonsville.

Gville won 40-3.

It was 27-0 at half, and Gville came out flat in the 3rd, turning it over on downs and then letting Monterey kick a field goal.

Our freshman QB scored our last TD.

The boys looked good overall, and I felt that the coaches could've taken advantage of some matchups on the field.

Monterey had some athletes, there was a couple I wouldn't mind having on a team, #85 and #20 for sure.

 

I will also say this, I've had nothing but problems out of refs from the Cookeville office on all levels. They are the biggest homers I have ever seen. Some of their calls are just plain ridiculous how obvious they're slanted. <_<

    • So much talk about an investigation about student record manipulation and then everything has went silent. Has anyone heard how the investigation is going?
    • Basically what you're saying is schools can basically bully students around and get away with it because they are protected. I agree to a certain extent but when schools decisions to keep knuckleheads on staff starts costing kids careers and a college education there is a problem. Our school system last week had a teacher supposedly push a kid and the parents went to the law and the teacher is suspended. So I wouldn't say that they can just do what they want without liability. This case don't pass the smell test because the coach had already been fired before and she got fired after a year on the job. Sounds like the student was right in this case on the outside looking in because the coach gets fired after one year. How many coaches get fired after one year?? Not many. 
    • Problem with DB football goes beyond coaching. Like Waco said. Thr band is the main focus of their community and school. They have the resources to be a championship level team. Guarantee Ballard or Witten could have them nationally relevant at some point but everyone down to peewee would have to buy in and at DB we all know that would never happen. 
    • I know the RB from OR he’s fast and has good hands. Is good on special teams also. Didn’t want to play defense over to the Ridge.
