ROANE COUNTY FOOTBALL

[olerockyrebel]

You have to admit though, that would be some really good BS.

It's easier to bs stories like that when you're school is being paid for as well as playing on a $50,000 football field.

Olerockyrebel, your a joke. I may be a disgrace to Rockwood, but I don't owe you or anyone else in that town anything. I am not a coward who hides behind screen names, and talk trash. Your malicious comment about their school being paid for is not accurate, and pretty much insulting. Their school has been paid for by their deceased mother. Your the disgrace to Rockwood, for being soo ignorant to get on here and post when you have no facts. Obviously you can't read either. I never said they weren't going to play sports, I said that wasn't how we determined what school we were gonna attend. It's sad when a grown man attacks the integrity of two high school kids, because they leave your school. Your a joke, and I would be more than happy to sit down and discuss this with you in private. I have been called everything under the sun for leaving Rockwood and I can take it all day. I don't take kindly to you attacking them. Schools lose players everyday, why is it such a big deal when they leave? As for your comment about investigation, I have no worries. We did nothing wrong, I guess you might want to check your source.

Very well put 'inman03....and by the way, I personally don't know you but welcome to GCA. There will always be the haters out there over this public vs private school debate. "It's not fair, it's not fair"....I'm so sick of hearing that but we might as well get used to it. I too transferred my children out of public schools about 9 years ago, and yes, my kids were in a Roane County school too. It was by far the best move we've ever made for our children. We were looking for a school with very high academic standards. We checked all the privates in Roane, Anderson and Knox Counties and Grace was by far the best choice for us. After 1 year at Grace you could not have begged, bargained, or forced my children to go back to their public school. It was a no brainer. We too chose Grace because of their highest academic standards and the tuition was very affordable......still is. I'm so glad we made that change. The school atmosphere at Grace is so different than their public school they attended. We had no worries 9 years ago and still none today. Top notch teachers, some with master's and doctorates. As I said before, it's a no brainer. i read your initial post and I'm here to tell you that you're children made the right decision basing it on academic reasons and the size of the school. I totally agree with as it would be a shock to most kids that attend a small school like Rockwood and go to one that has 1200-2000 students. Grace has roughly 350 students in the HS which is a few less than RW. And yes,as you stated to the clueless olerockyrebel, he will always state things and start rumors....with no facts. Olerockyrebel has always been a Grace hater.....I try not to let it bother me until it gets personal. Pujo is pretty nice fella, I don't think he's a Grace hater...but just not a fan of Privates in D1. Hang in there 'inman03.....You're children will love everything about GCA.....well except maybe the dress code....lol. Just kiddin. Actually, our students at Grace look very good in our dress code. Publics should adopt a dress code poilicy. Take care and God bless.

 

Go Rams!

Ram Fan,

I could care less about this argument because it seems like there is always some reason you guys have to defend yourselves. BUT there are two sides to every story and the story coming out of Carter is that several family members and friends talked him out of leaving. Could it be possible that your Coach wants to save face and its easy to say a kid didn't get admitted to the school.

 

Could it be possible....could it be possible, well I guess it could be.......but it was not to be. Hey, was that Shakespeare?

 

Sorry to burst your bubble but the athletic dept turned down the request for transfer.

[NextLevelRecruiting]

Hey Ram Fan, Speaking of athletic Dept? Did the AD and asst get fired recently? Also, Didnt the Baseball coach get fired too for unspecified reasons? If True? What in the Holy World is going on over there at Grace?

Seeing how you wanna quote Shakespeare,

"A fool thinks himself wise but a wise man knows himself to be a fool"

You'll figure it out

Read the post above....you'll figure it out.

 

But to answer your question, yes the AD was not asked back. No the asst AD was not released. No the baseball coach was not released either. Once again, read post above.

Is this a Roane County Football thread or a Grace thread. What does all the teams bring to the table this year in this county

[rcpatriot]

I'm not a fan of how TSSAA allows private schools to do some of things that they are doing, but.......I'm not going to blame a parent for doing what they believe is best for there own childs future, whether that be academically and/or athletically. Each parent is responsible for doing what they believe to be best for there child. Mr/Mrs Inman made a choice for there children with the hopes that it would benefit there future.

You may not agree with there choice and/or decision, but it's not your child and you aren't responsible for there future.
