According to the Columbia Daily Herald, MP's season is starting out on the wrong foot a little bit.

 

Starting Junior QB Walter Crawford broke his foot last week on the 18th playing basketball making a lay up. The break read to be not too severe as several days later he is already out of the boot and able to put a little pressure on it. Crawford is doing what he's able to do during practice so far, mainly throwing and studying new offense; he said about he's about at 75% and hoping to be at 100% before Aug. 22nd opener at Eagleville.

I think mTp may have something going on.

:thumb: bout time you get back on the T..... Been aweful lonesome as a MP fan on the T as of late.... I guess after Zioneaglet55 got done trying to fuss with me a bit over the hiring process, he/she turncoated back to the other side and quit talking MP football. On the bandwagon for a minute and then fell off down the road somewhere.....lol.

  • will be a tough, first game

Can be a good game IF MP can hang on to the ball and if Coach brings a game plan with short, quick passes to keep the LB's honest to allow a run game to develop for MP to take pressure off a not 100% QB... Could be interesting.

 

Going long occasionally with just run, run, run.?.?.? Gonna be a long nite for MP... Eagleville can and will stuff the run if LB's are free to help their D line and keep Crawford running for his life on an injured (not 100%) ankle setting up long passes.

 

Don't need to loose our QB first game of the season re-injuring it. Get the ball out of his hands quickly.

 

GO TIGERS! :thumb:

Halftime....

 

MP........ 6

Eagles....3

 

Eagles drive takes some time off the clock only to be stopped by Tigers D with Woodson for the Tigers making 2 big stops and forcing a turn over on downs.

 

Tigers Offense takes over and drives the 3/4 distance of the field with the final play leading to a TD being a good scramble by QB Crawford throwing right before he was sacked to WR Warrensly for completion, then Warrensly broke a tackle to go on in for the TD.

 

Eagleville takes an out of bounds kick off and starts at their 35, has just enough time on the clock for a couple of plays to set up about a 30-35 yard field goal to put 3 on the board.

    • 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.
