Hey, not blaming Boone, not blaming South, but I am blaming TSSAA for devising a system that is so simple yet still doesn't compare apples to apples. I'm just saying, you better win as many as you can and not take any chances with non-conference games. Just schedule perennial cupcakes regardless of classification. South took a financial bath with the scheduling of West as well. We filled their place up while they brought about 150 to our place representing lost revenue of approximately $5000 for us.

 

The economic factor is a fact of life. I don't think any of the Knoxville area teams travel well. Meanwhile South is as fanatical as Texas commnities in this regard. Gate City fans are a good $. Probably almost as good as DB. When South travels we take every drop of blood relation and then some. We will be hard pressed to find such dedication.

At the DB/Farragut game most of the visitor section was Big 8 fans. Farragut brought next to nothing. I sat with them and they were more concerned with the race than the game.

I would think our fanbases would help with our scheduling because we travel so well. Other schools should be lined up to play us because their gate is going to be really good. In the end finances will win out with smaller schools. If I am a coach at a smaller school why would I want to play the likes of Boone or South and get taken to the woodshed and possibly hurt my playoff chances? Money is why and it will win out in the end.

Why is a D-B fan more concerned with South's program than the Tribe's? Hmmmmmmm

 

Listen Smart ___ I am a fan of a lot of the NET schools. I am concerned for South's program. You enable and support the bad choices made which will become evident to even the densest this season. The sad thing is the kids will have to deal with it and will be held responsible at school, in the community and on here for things out of their control.

 

If you would like to continue, I would be glad to spell out exactly what my concerns are. Your buddies might not like that much.

      Well personally I see us going 9-1 so that isn't doom and gloom to me , Most people are thinking 6-4. Bearden will be the possible loss but hoping not. I was very impressed with what I saw this spring.

      the kid you are speaking about, played in JV games,  2H half Science Hill game, split time in Hardin Valley and Bearden and that was it.   The upcoming Senior RB was All Region as a Junior and is regarded by the media as one of the top running backs in East TN for 2024 season. Scouting services have him as a top 10 back in the state.  Something aint adding up with gloom and doom. Maybe he was hurt and not at spring practice when you watched?

      Clinton names new OC

      Are you kidding me?  You are just trolling now.  The new head coach's qualifications would be volunteer coach at the Oak Ridge Boys Club?  C'mon man, you can't be serious.  You're trolling us.  Anybody working at Clinton High School has to be like a cat in a room full of rocking chairs at this point.  They are coming after anybody and everybody that had knowledge of what was going on.  This is about to get real ugly.  Only in Clinton.
