Good Game To both teams. Once again the Cavs got us, and the streak continues, but the boys fought hard. It would have been easy to give up down 23 that early in the third, but we fought back and for that I am proud. As for what we have to do to get better, our special teams are horrible. Every punt is an adventure. There has to be someone that can snap a punt, and our punter, though young really needs to be able to get some more distance on his punts. Kickoffs are going deep but we often give up big returns. If we hope to be a good team, our special teams has to improve.

Anyways, good luck the rest of the season to both teams. Jets, lets get this thing turned back around next week against York.

I agree it was a great game. The Jets are clearly an improved team and your QB is a tough and shifty runner. The field position that special teams gave up certainly was a big part of the game. As a CCHS graduate from way back that has lived in Cookeville for many years now, it's good to see the Jets turning things around. Good luck the rest of the season.

We actually won the second half. If our coaching staff would not start the game out trying not to lose, we might have had a chance tonight. When our play calling has some balance, we play much better on offense. I think we threw one pass in the first half. I might have missed one or two but I don't think so. We mixed it up in our two wins and in the two losses, we seemed afraid to pass the ball until we had to do so. I do like our chances in the rest of our schedule. By the way, the original long snapper had one high snap against Marion Co. and was replaced immediately. Many times we would be better off going for it on fourth than punting. Last week, we had a punt under five yards net and it wasn't a big return. Not trying to complain, just disappointed because I really thought we had a great chance tonight. Still a drastic improvement in comparison to the previous few years.

I hope the administration sees what the fans do and continues to support this team. A quality special teams coach and another assistant or two could really help this team turn the corner in the next few years.

 

I hope the boys continue to play with the same intensity and if they do, I see no reason why we can't finish second in this district. Lets get it back on track this week and get some revenge against York.

 

 

Go Jets

I agree with you. I have noticed more fans in the stands these past two seasons. It's good to see it.

 

Like you said, second place is a very realistic and achievable goal. Good luck to the Jets and keep those motors running boys!

    • RR, you might remember. Didn’t someone hide the kicking shoe that game? It seems I remember we had missed a kick the week before, and we needed all the points we could get. We thought we had a better chance going for two, so $?&@$ hid the shoe after the first miss that game. No one on our sideline looked for it very hard.
    • I will never forget the 1983 Heritage vs Maryville game. I remember driving home and listening to WGAP. Can't remember the announcers name. He asked Coach Story why he kept going for 2? Story told him " Why didn't you ask Renfro that last year"
    • TSSAA will let them all go to Mase.
    • Well nothing new, the Mustangs are really talented again this coming season!  They very well could go undefeated in regular season.  We shall see what happens in postseason.  I think the path to state title game is a little clearer than years past.  I think the Stangs are going to be really good and I think the traditional teams around in 2A are not going to be as strong.  It should be a fun season!
