What a bad time to have possible disruptions and distractions during the most important time of the season, the playoffs. Says something about a coach for having rules and sticking by them no matter what, when, where or who. Very sorry to hear this news on the players. Just heard about this. Good luck Rebels on Friday evening.

Obion Central head football coach Shawn Jackson has dismissed three players from the program for the remainder of the season and suspended a fourth for this week’s second round playoff game against Covington.

Jackson confirmed that junior linebacker Nathan Spaulding, senior receiver/defensive back Parker McMinn and senior Garrett Dunn had been removed from the team for a violation of team rules. Junior linebacker Blake Powers will sit out this week’s game as a result of a seperate incident.

A school disciplinary hearing was scheduled for this afternoon for the three players who’ll miss the remainder of the season, but Jackson said his decision will stand, regardless of that committee’s ruling.

Spaulding led the team and all of Obion County in tackles with 113 in 11 games, while McMinn has been a starter in both the secondary and at receiver for the Rebels. Dunn and Powers have seen action on special teams and as reserves.

Article may be a bit premature. From what I hear, they have not been dismissed from the team for the year but are suspended for the Covington game...

I will just say not having all the facts and listening to a kid that wasn't even there and then calling it a PR move is knee-jerk reaction!!! Hutch is a bad dude and couldn't wait to print negative things about oc. I will leave it at That!!!

You Hutch haters are nuts...I bet if you look The Messenger has dedicated more space in their sports section to OC than they have to Union City...If he was such a homer the sports section should be smothered with SF Red Devils stuff since he played and graduated from there...

 

I know the guy and believe me, he finds no joy in reporting on stuff like this...

They have guys that can play in the suspended kids' positions...

 

 

Purple,

 

I'm sure that they have some boys that can fill the spots, but you dont replace starters and the first guys you have coming off the bench that easily. I believe one of the boys was the leading tackler on the team. You just dont replace those guys that easily. It will hurt the Rebels. And, anyone would have to say that this hurts the Rebels chances of winning, unless they're just being a homer.

 

I'm picking Covington with a little more surety now. I was at the first game between these 2. It was a great game. BUT, Obion Co. better have learned to tackle better than they did that night, or they might be done. I saw a lot of missed tackles and arm tackling going on that night...and the Rebs are minus their leading tackler now.

I didn't say anything about how often he writes about one school or another. There we Go jumping the gun again. Just Like y'all say Jackson did. I said he was a bad dude! To say I said or meant anything else is a little premature don't you Think??

This is the old man that made the video. I have been doing video for about 17 years. Last Friday when I heard the song for the first time it gave me chills, it fired me up! I approached #12 with an idea about a video to that song. He agreed and called some of the Seniors to participate. The video is not directed at anyone. As a member of this wonderful community and a supporter of the chargers, we believe in them. It's our goal not to just raise great football players but to raise great young men. Win or Lose, we , the charger nation Believe in them and support them. The video is ultimately for them. Just think 20 years from now, they can set down with their children and show them this dvd of them and their team mates. Thats Priceless! For anyone who took offense to this, we are sorry you misunderstood our motive. We are the Chargers, and we are Proud.

great video man...ur right the kids will love it and so will their own lil ones...

 

i remember just a few years back when liberty had their lil walk-out song that they made for basketball...it does more good than harm...especially when ur backing it up...i remember watchin other teams come in and warm up...gettin into the music...and then they started catchin the lyrics...was pretty funny...

 

good luck tmrw...to both teams...

    • Yeah and the coach is gone. Whole bizarre situation here. We played them a couple of times at MTSU last few years. She was a player for sure. 
    • This whole situation is bonkers. You don’t just kick your star player off the team just because you heard them say the F word; the coach definitely had something against the player, or somebody definitely did. Also, nobody has brought up the idea that the school blackmailed the college to get the college to withdraw the scholarship offer, not to mention that the coach who kicked her off is no longer even with the program; they were fired. I think this is a pretty easy lawsuit. I don’t know if she should deserve that much money, but I think she should get enough money for a full-ride scholarship if she cannot get one after this situation.
    • Oh yeah, I’m sure you are different people just always on the same thread for some reason, always agreeing with each other, perhaps just a bunch of dorks who would like to ###### and moan about high school football coaches do a lot of other students, so you make a football team and get a yell at them. When they do something wrong, but I’m sure you don’t like that, do you?   and I’m sure I’m aware of where you get information. A teacher who was on the coaching staff but was fired after the new coaching and staff came in and realized he actually had to start taking his assistant job a little bit more seriously than just wanting to make a little extra cash on the side, hardly even showing up to most practices, should’ve left with his buddy to go to Farragut. I’m sure he could get him a defensive coaching job, but I doubt he will be there in three years. Looking at the way Farragut is currently going.
    • It may be hard to believe but there’s more people than me that think you guys are a bunch of losers.    I’m sure the coaching staff, yourself included, cursed at a bunch of high school students. Nobody could name more than 3 coaches on staff due to the constant turnover. 
    • That's complete BS.  Nobody at ACHS has access to CHS student records unless a transfer is made from CHS to ACHS.
