I will go on record having been part of similar productions in the past on the college level...

This will be the WORST high school football experience for the fans in attendance at the game.

There will be a lot of places that fans have had access to in the past (and will after this game) that they will not be allowed to go. ESPiN brings their own security and they will be pretty firm (field access will be VERY limited.)

Long TV timeouts (unlike Packer TV) TV timeouts are based on the time allotted for the game. If it is a game that is taking a short amount of time (like ALCOA running the ball 70 times a game) there will be more "filler" to kill tiime in the three hour allotment for the game.

It will be LONG and HOT and will take the total alloted time to play the contest. A lot of the people that don't know this will be yelling at the guy in the red hat a bunch.

I do agree, however that it is good to get the recognition for both programs. Maybe Greeneville will get on one day after they have won about 10 more titles... [:) BVDevil]

Really? Tell me where in the BIBLE does it say that you have to go to church at 12pm on Sunday? Do you know 100% that the Sabath is on Sunday? Are you a disgruntled fan , parent or just a hater? Are you going to put a hex on me? lol

 

I personally think it is a shame that the churches have to move God around football. I hear about a lot of integrity from both coaches and they missed an excellent opportunity to make a stand as Christians. Play the game but leave the church services as they are. Don't approach a church and ask them to adjust for football!

I have to say that I am not 100 percent happy about the new stuff going on at Maryville. I think it is neat and exciting, but at the same time I think that it makes high school football lose some of that essence that makes it so great and magical. I think it makes it lose that small town feel. You know what I am talking about... where you and your couple thousand closest friends feel like every game is really important but you know that outside of this stadium and this city a lot of people might not care. Yet you still feel like you've tapped into something special. Something pure. I just feel like the turf and the tv take away from that a bit. Maybe it is just the change that scares me, maybe I will get used to it. I don't know, but right now I'm not extremely comfortable with the changes even if they are 'cool'.

the churches do not have to move anything plus I think GOD is bigger than all this.

Not many people have access to the field before or during the game anyway but they will when the clock reaches zero or their security will need security.

I really do not care much about ESPN and could care less about this game being on TV. What they want does not concern me in the least and "we" pay the taxes that fund all this so not to worried about them.

      Never said I thought it was a smart decision. I'm scratching my head at it too.

      If he wanted to play QB he should have either went to Heritage or William Blount and had a real good chance there. In stead he'll be exactly what he was going to be at Maryville. They already know who their QB is going to be in 2025 and it ain't going to be him.

      Easier said than done. The man who ran for 250+ yards and 3TDs is gonna be back….and a lot bigger.

      You are correct.   The teacher's pay scale is virtually the same in Knox County, now, as it is at Oak Ridge.   The coaching supplements are still higher at Oak Ridge, from what I was told, but not a huge difference.   Plus, Rusty is going from a position coach to an OC position, which is what he was at South Doyle and where his comfort zone is.  And from a special education teaching slot to a PE teaching slot.  There is a lot of positivity in that move without even considering the coaching aspect.   Anybody who sees something negative here is just looking for negativity to begin with.  But some live in that world.   Really good hire for Brent.  He now has two experienced and quality coordinators and can concentrate on being a head football coach.
