Don't act like the turf lag didn't bother you. Looks like it's time for the Irish to go ahead with the plans for a dome. Recruiting wars. LOL How long til Webb follows suit?

 

It is really cost effective and prevents a lot of wear and tear on a field when you have three football teams, two soccer teams and two lacrosse teams all using the same field (not to mention the Catholic youth football). At least you all have been able to avoid the "other" football teams from wearing out your real football field.

Now Irish you know the truth is that KCHS had to get turf because you were killing all the grass on the practice and playing fields with all of those "voluntary...no coaches allowed" practices  8-)

 

Actually I would prefer to keep the grass field, just make sure it drained well and was well maintained by diverting all the other activities to other playing/practice fields.  Ensworth probably has more money than CAK & KCHS combined, but they have a grass field.  Of course the subsurface drainage system on it rivals Neyland Stadium.  I'm sure we will get good use out of it and I think it looks good, but I still like playing on grass and getting a little muddy ever now and then.

Cost is cheap over this way for field maintenance. No mowers or reseeding needed. Most school don't even play soccer or lacrose. A few billy goats tied to a cinder block keeps thew grass mowed, fertal

Well...that hairy legged bagpipe lady is very distracting.

I'm with you, FBDAD, I guess that is the old school coming out in us.  Don't care much for Friday nights on the turf when a team can play in white uni's and end the game with no grass stains or dirt on the uni.  But, I guess we better get used to them, it seems that it is part of the trend they call "advancement".

      Oh yeah, I’m sure you are different people just always on the same thread for some reason, always agreeing with each other, perhaps just a bunch of dorks who would like to ###### and moan about high school football coaches do a lot of other students, so you make a football team and get a yell at them. When they do something wrong, but I’m sure you don’t like that, do you?   and I’m sure I’m aware of where you get information. A teacher who was on the coaching staff but was fired after the new coaching and staff came in and realized he actually had to start taking his assistant job a little bit more seriously than just wanting to make a little extra cash on the side, hardly even showing up to most practices, should’ve left with his buddy to go to Farragut. I’m sure he could get him a defensive coaching job, but I doubt he will be there in three years. Looking at the way Farragut is currently going.

      It may be hard to believe but there’s more people than me that think you guys are a bunch of losers.    I’m sure the coaching staff, yourself included, cursed at a bunch of high school students. Nobody could name more than 3 coaches on staff due to the constant turnover.

      That's complete BS.  Nobody at ACHS has access to CHS student records unless a transfer is made from CHS to ACHS.

      Trez's last scandal has died down, so I guess this is there opportunity to be the best 4A team playing in 2A a la Sissy MTN.  At least they won't be in a Z-district with 1a teams in the regular season.

      Facts...until someone takes down the Rebels they should be the favorite. Got loads of young guys salivating at the opportunity to prove themselves and get a 3peat! Blazer how is Region 1 looking this year?
