"rfbatboy" you said, "Would love to see T High beat Greenville but odds are the want happen, unless #3 lays on the ground faking half the night crushing the momentum of Greenville." It is a shame that you stooped to that level on a great game. The kids on both sides played so hard. Many of the kids for Trezevant played both ways and they are going to get banged up a little. The best rusher for Trezevant who ran for 50 plus yards on the first play was hurt and never played another down in the game. There is a good chance if he plays that the game would not have been close enough in the 3rd quarter for LHS to have a chance. Doesn't matter, congratulations to LHS on a great season and go Trezevant Bears!!!

I don't think you quite know what you are talking about saying that the LHS ball players were more classy than the Trezevant boys. I've been around this team and have stood on the sideline with them for most of the games the last five years. T High has never been anywhere close to this point. Correct me if I am wrong, but neither has LHS. The reason we celebrated like we've never been there is simply because we have not and we were on our home field. As for the classless LHS players, there is no excuse for calling an African-American young man the "N" word. It is obvious to me by the way you are talking, saying that the Trezevant boys are not "winners in life," it sounds like you are exemplifying the same racist mindset. What a pitiful sore loser response. The Bears played better and deserved the win.

Okay, you might be the most ignorant person to ever create a CoachT account. You acted childish and calsseless after your win. Don't act like just because it's never happened before is an excuse to act completely immature and classless. You have no clue what you're talking about when you're talking about the "N" word. You may not of noticed this but we have a couple "African Americans" ourselves. And half of our coaches are African American I can assure you no racial slures like that were sent out. The reason our QB was thrown out of the game is because one of your classless players were holding his ankle wouldn't get off while another player came by and kicked him in the face so he jerked his foot out from the guy holding it and the official thought he kicked someone. Get your facts straight son. And your boys really aren't winners in life. We're not exemplifying any kind of racial mind set. We're exemplifying Reality.

Thanks for the apology "rfbatboy". I am sure that the issue with LHS qb will be seen in two different ways. I thought both teams played well and played with class. I am not sure what LHS would have done if you guys had won and made it to the state championship game, but I am pretty sure they would not just have stood there without any emotion. I had the chance to stand beside some TSSAA officials and be on the field after the game....Trezevant and Lexington players I thought handled the outcome pretty well. I think that one has to remember that those boys from Trezevant winning a game of that magnitude is a huge deal, just as it would be for Lexington. However, you can tell by the crowd, the Trezevant kids have had very little support to this point and still have very little. The fact that they ran and jumped around and were excited....that is kids being kids after winning a huge game. I guess I am not sure what people considered childish and unsportmanslike?

 

Speaking to LHS2012....the only ignorant thing that about this whole debate is the fact that you said "And your boys really aren't winners in life. We're not exemplifying any kind of racial mind set. We're exemplifying Reality." The reality is they are winners and are more successful than most of the kids from the community they live in. They are winners and so are the Lexington boys.....the only non-winners are those who are on here claiming that KIDS playing football are not winners!!!

They're more successful than most kids in that area? You do realize that means absolutely nothing right? Most kids from around there aren't successful. And you're irrelevant comment saying the only non-winners are the ones saying your boys aren't winners? That's retarded. So you say I'm not a winner however, I have a 4.0 average and I'm going to college. I assure you, All I do is win, son.

    • A complete cultural change happened at Greeneville and the administration and community opened up their checkbooks.  What a lot of people don't know is Ballard was Zeller's OC for many years and stopped coaching for two years because Zeller and Ballard didn't see eye to eye on some things.  Zeller lead Greeneville to it's first ever Semi Final appearance in 2000 and lost 28-12 at Maryville and had them in the Quarter Finals in 2002 and 2003.  Z was a great coach but lost some control when it came to making workouts mandatory. (He learned from that Mistake and it was at LC when i coached with him.).  Z was let go going into my Senior Year and was replaced by Steve McCurry who was the one that turned the program around.  Steve had won a 4a state championship at AC Reynolds in Asheville and made the administration completely redo the weight room with new equipment, had a football period at the end of the school day to lift, started devil camp, and brought in coaches like Danny Bentley (Still the OL coach), Ballard as the OC, Cody Baugh (QB coach and still there), and even Spradlen who is Greeneville's head coach now as the DB's Coach.  McCurry only coached for two seasons at Greeneville and took a team that had a losing record the year before and finished my Senior Year making it to the Quarters and having a 10-3 record and then followed it up with a Semi Final appearance the next year with an 11-3 record and back to back conference championships.  Loved McCurry to death but the recession hit and the story i heard was he was still buying new equipment for the team that the Principal didn't authorize and his response was "I don't answer to you and only to Niswonger and Bewley" (Two huge donors).  That was it for him and they Promoted Ballard shortly after that.   Greeneville had always been relevant ever since the the late 70's under Coach Fred Sorrell's.  Since Sorrell's took over in 1977 Greeneville overall winning percentage is over 76%.  The biggest reason people might not have thought Greeneville was "Good" until Ballard was Greeneville always played up Classification wise and could never get over the hump. (When there were 3 classifications we played 3a, when it went to 5 we played 4a).  Greeneville is the largest its ever been with 953 students and where playing teams 2 or 3 times there size back in the day (I had a little over 800 kids in the school when i graduated in 2008).  Other teams always would know they would be sore after a game but depth took over and never won a Championship until Greeneville played in the classification the TSSAA actually assigned them. You had names like Dustin Moore (1993 Mr Football for 3a and who Phillip Fulmer said was one of the greatest athletes he ever recruited), James "Mud Turtle" Mayes, Brigham Lyons, Byron Gillespie, Frankie Debusk (National Champion Qb at Furman with GQ), Jasmine Lowery, Cody Baugh, The Greenway Brothers, Joe Watson (Furman), etc.  Now the cultural is from the Pee Wee league up and you grow up as a young kid wanting to wear the Greene and White.  Here is a really good link when it comes to anything Greeneville Football related. https://greenevillefootball.com/   I also don't coach anymore.  Z told me i was to smart with how the school systems are ran these days and ended up going into real estate in Knoxville which has been a great decision for my life.
    • Yes, they will. I'm wondering what kinds of strides Sale Creek will make heading into the second season under Coach Fitz.
    • No yellow stripes on the rug last night. Biggest crowd I’ve seen at 825 since the alco debacle. 
    • I know most Pirate starters were seniors last year. Im not sure how accurate it is but someone said we only have 3 seniors. That Prep team will probably make some noise this coming season too.
