I missed a couple of days reading the T and the thread exploded with smack between Alcoa & Baxter. wow! Its been a good read though.

 

As far as the game tonight between Alcoa & CAK goes, it will be difficult for CAK to win.  GVK mentioned that you have to have some elite type of players to beat the Tornadoes, and CAK was fortunate enough to have a few of those the past several years.  This year is a little different.  CAK has some good players, just not enough of the elite level players to beat a team as talented as Alcoa without some help.  The wildcard tonight could be the weather.  I've always believed that bad weather helps the underdog.  Conventional wisdom has always been that bad weather helps the team that runs the ball.  Although CAK is a passing team they have proven they can effectively utilize their offensive scheme in wet weather.  A couple of years ago when CAK beat Alcoa for the first time the field was wet and became somewhat muddy over the course of the game, and  CAK actually passed and ran the ball effectively.  Of course that was with different personnel than we have this year...but I still think the weather forecast could help the Warriors.  Maybe Alcoa slips, stutters and fumbles a few balls away which could allow CAK to keep it closer this time.  CAK has had a good week of practice and they are in a familiar position...deep into the playoffs and facing Alcoa.  The Tornadoes should win this one, but they know they will have to go out and earn it.  Good luck to my Warriors....I will be there cheering you on, eating band burgers and rubbing elbows with the Goons  :D

    • look at the leadership
    • Biggest position to fill is QB. Kamden was special. A 1A team that can run and pass is very dangerous.
    • That would have been Coach Benjamin who was his legal Guardian and the DB coach.  I was the LB's Coach that was barely older than the players (I was going to UT for school and had started at Greeneville since my Sophomore year when Z coached there and he asked me to help coach)
    • Going on over a month now and still nothing, rumor mill or not I think a decision needs to be made. Maybe they don’t have anyone wanting it and maybe rumor mill don’t need it they are taking this long to come to an agreement.
    • Gibson County proved last year you can win it all with 6 players and if I’m not mistaken they only played 5 in the championship game. I would expect them to be good by end of season but I think losing Hart is a huge loss.  Summer camp gives teams a preview of what to expect and it’s exciting to see where teams are at. The Fillies return 3 starters and the 6th man that is 6’2” and I think she is going to surprise folks this season.
