Can't really complain about any of these comments made previously. The Cherokees haven't played well in what is most definitely a down season so far. Will say that I saw some improvement against Alcoa from the previous week's loss to Cleveland. Still, a lot of work remains in what is already a brutal schedule.

 

My prediction: Oak Ridge with the "W".

I just read on the Clinton thread where you saw the Gaddis pregame talk before the Clinton game. Is there still a way to watch that? I can't believe that I missed it. What was it like?

I dvr'd it, so if you wanna come over my house to watch it, feel free to LOL. He was just talking about how our players should feel so lucky to get to play at a place like OR. How much Blankenship Field means to him, etc. Then he started to talkin' about them suckers! (Clinton) lol. Said we never wanna lose to anybody, but if their is a team we don't EVER wanna lose to , it's them guys and yeah he really called them suckers and "them guys" lol

Who are some players to watch for Mcminn? What offense do they run? Spread? Thanks.

 

The Cherokees run the spread, with various backfield and wideout alignments seen in the first 4 games.  There isn't any one player that stands out on either side of the ball.  The running back is a pretty tough runner, though he's not too big.

Thanks for replying. McMinn usually has pretty good speed. Are they lacking in the speed department this year?

    • I've caught a few games this year. We have a decent team.   I'm hoping this group can qualify for state.  
    • Pirates baseball team is region 3 champs.  Host sectional Wednesday.   Go Pirates!!
    • I am interested in seeing how much they progress in year two under Fitz myself. I do believe they will improve but how much will be the question.
    • Pirates can make a run at the dance for sure.
    • I've always been a football fan first and then if you have a band that's awesome.No question that DB has one of the best bands in the country and the whole region should attend at least one DB game just to see their band. I don't know if Nick Saban could come to Kingsport and build a football program that could match the Dobyns Bennett band's success.That said,as mentioned before, a couple of things would have to change in order for the Tribe to just win a state championship on the field.Besides a program that starts from the peewee teams and goes all the way to J Fred with all coaches and weight training { in time }on the same page. Sometimes it also takes a little luck like the 1998 Vols .There are a lot of great athletes at a lot of big schools around the state and just because you want something doesn't mean your going to build a program like Alcoa has. Yes,start at the bottom and have guys that are quality coaches teaching at every level is 100% the first step. Parents can make it a lot easier by getting their young athletes into an early start with conditioning and weights as well when they are old enough to lift.If your son is a man in the weight room before he gets to DB , then it won't take a "Dobbs" coach to make him competitive against other schools athletes when it comes to strength.
