Actually alumni band geek dad x 2. We are worse than the band geeks themselves. I do love the game though.

 

 

What is up with our band this year? They no longer play music but spend all their time trying to make the trampolines look like something normal for a marching band. I think someone has been over doing the caffeine during the off-season. I would love to see our band get back to playing music and showing off their musical talents.

 

 

I predict a split Friday night. Owls football team wins with defense and the Cleveland Blue Raider band wins with playing music.

First let's talk a little football since I have already been accused of talking on the food network (I keed). This early in the season it is so hard to compare teams and the strength and weaknesses of their competition. There is no way you can compare Alcoa and Knox Catholic to Brainerd and East Ham. Later in the season we will be able to compare their strengths and weaknesses to more accurately tell how we did against them. All we know now is the Owls won both of their games rather handily and Cleveland lost theirs.

 

I did not see the first game, but against East Ham the Owls had a good balance of running and passing and except when they had the big lead and lost intensity the D looked good too. The middle of the D line played lights out and except for a time our two the DE's and LB's had good containment. Secondary was not tested often. Thought they tackled well after catch. Kick Off and Punt teams need to maintain discipline and tackle better. Return teams were excellent.

 

Now to the band. They are bringing back a show they did in 1996. The Owl band is a show band and likes to use props. They call it theater on grass. I too wish they would play more in the stands and please learn some new stand music. Mr Denton has been there 30 years so I don't think he is going to change.

 

I predict Owls by 7 in a back and forth game. And yes I am looking forward to a BBQ sandwich.

Trampolines are the worst idea i ve ever seen for a BAND..... kinda makes me wonder if i ve heard them play anything besides Rocky Top in 2 yrs.I know what the band is responsible for BUT play some music and keep us X-Band members/football fans fired up!!!! Cleveland will be tough to stop in the air all night long!!! DB s gonna get a work tomm!! In saying that i really do think the Ooltewah band is VERY VERY good while there playing at half just cut out the dog and pony show!!

Food,trampolines?Really,one of the biggest games so far and no cleveland fans are saying anything,no owl fans are saying anything,whats up with that?

This will be Ooltewah's toughest test no doubt,but as good as our defense is we still better be on our toes with Voytik.

As long as we pressure him and make him run more than he throws,the better.

If we play as good on offense as we did last week,cleveland will be in dog fight.

No predictions from me,do not want to jinx us.,.hope everyone stays healthy.Go Owls!!!!

Like most games it is going to come down to line play. Get after Voytik and don't give him time and it will be a long night for the Blue Raiders. Similarly Stevens needs some time to get rid of the ball. Last week we had a lot of short passes that turned into big plays, plus some big runs up the middle. Tried to do some quick research about Clevelands running game. In the one article I read it appeard Voytik was their leading rusher as well with 16 carries for 57 yards. If that is all they have for a running game and I am not saying it is, than the Owls should come out on top.

 

Go Owls

    • Shopping? His family is loaded and he's 6'6 I'm pretty sure he could start anywhere in upper East TN,So no need to shop. Word is Witten got caught trying to work him out on campus and some 7 on 7 while playing athletics for Sullivan East. Word got around pretty quick and Someone turned them into TSSAA.
    • Quick update on Jacob -  Jacob celebrated his 16th birthday at Vanderbilt on Tuesday and has been in decent spirits.  His sense of humor has begun to show as he was visited by many friends.  He is swallowing a lot better now and has eaten some of his favorites (Chik-Fil-A and Five Guys).   He is getting prepared to head to Atlanta to the Shepherd Center first thing tomorrow morning.  His family has been waiting on insurance approval. In case you dont know the Shepherd Center it a world class facility and supposedly one of the best in the country for spinal injury rehab.  Praying for perfect results there. Considering the circumstances, Jacob is in decent spirits.  He has some reflexive movement in his legs which I think is probably a very positive sign.  Don't read too much into that just yet as there is no telling what the real prognosis is... just hopeful that is good thing.  I am really just happy that it seems like he has a punchers chance of getting something back.  He is a strong young man and very determined so I think he will fight as hard as he can in physical therapy while down in Atlanta. More than one of you has asked me about an address to send donations.  I know GoFundMe isn't for everyone.  If you want to go that route, you can make a check to "Blackman Wrestling Club" and we will pass anything received directly to the Kinderdines.   Jacob Kinderdine c/o Blackman Wrestling 4836 Trevino Court Murfreesboro, TN  37128 Also, want to thank everyone who has donated so far.  Jacobs dad will take a month off work and stay in Atlanta with him.  They need to learn how to take care of him and do home therapy work..... and surely Jacob will be glad his dad can be there.  All that could not happen without you all.  Depending on what happens, they will probably end up doing some home remodeling in order to accommodate Jacob at their home.  Thanks again. Here's a pic I lifted from Facebook of Jacob on Oxy talking to his Uncle.  LOL
