SweetScience Posted March 5, 2013 Report Share Posted March 5, 2013 (edited) ^i bet gaddis brings back the old helmet decals. Funny you say that...There was made a Gaddis page on FB a few mos agao to help bring him back..Over a 1000 OR fans are on it..I just posted a pic of our old helmet on it and said "Bring this back too, Coach!!!!!" lol...I'm with you. I think he will, without a doubt..He is very conscious of our traditions, and that is a big one.

coach1076 Posted March 5, 2013 Report Share Posted March 5, 2013 I love Oak Ridge football & its tradition, but those decals were very outdated. Decals on a helmet don't matter as long as you win. Great hire, I'm sure the Ridge will win a state championship in the coming years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great hire, I'm sure the Ridge will win a state championship in the coming years. Absolutely! Walking on Blankenship still moves me after 30 years, I love the tradition, but it's just a decal, the players like it, and we need to allow them to add their own to the tradition as well.

Lost Old Dad Posted March 5, 2013 Report Share Posted March 5, 2013 First things first, Congratulations Oak Ridge! Second, with this hire will improvements be made to the field and facilities there? A shuttle from the high side to the low for us OLD folks would be nice seeing as y'all can't install an escalator. LOL Third, will this mean a return of Bounder cooking ribs?!?!?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
