And I have to admit, although TC is a 2A team (seem to win the title every year though) they bring the best crowds to our games than anyone else we play. So I don't see them wanting to drop that game. I think the team that they have fielded this year can be a good football team, they just have to play smart. They have talent on the field. That's not hardly ever a problem at Gallatin High.

Have to agree with Thegreatone here. The non-district schedule is rather weak. It will not help the team prepare for solid competition they'll face in the playoffs. Don't get me wrong I respect the Gallatin program and what they have accomplished (a lengthy history of winning and state championships) but the team is not what it once was and it is ok to come to terms with that. Playing weaker teams is not going to build a state championship program. Competition should be the priority.

Competition under this format to enter the playoffs does not exist. It is all based on total wins. Nobody is claiming Gallatin has a strong schedule but I would not let one 2 year out of district scheduling period say Gallatin is playing the dregs of the football world. I think the past speaks for itself in who they are willing to play. It's laughable to think otherwise. Not only that but I know that over 30 teams were contacted for this past scheduling cycle and most said no thanks. You have to have an open date on the right week and extended travel were both concerns. Mid state teams besides those with 2000 kids said no!

WCP can fill you in. A parent of a player who got a letter told me. Luckily he was on the list. Way to divide your fanbase and team. Not too smart in my opinion.

 

Wave; I would be really interested in this letter thing. What list? I live in Lexington, KY and not privy to all the things said and done .

    • You are correct.   The teacher's pay scale is virtually the same in Knox County, now, as it is at Oak Ridge.   The coaching supplements are still higher at Oak Ridge, from what I was told, but not a huge difference.   Plus, Rusty is going from a position coach to an OC position, which is what he was at South Doyle and where his comfort zone is.  And from a special education teaching slot to a PE teaching slot.  There is a lot of positivity in that move without even considering the coaching aspect.   Anybody who sees something negative here is just looking for negativity to begin with.  But some live in that world.   Really good hire for Brent.  He now has two experienced and quality coordinators and can concentrate on being a head football coach.  
    • He was pretty darn good for a freshman, but he will have a hard time seeing the field at Oakland for a good while, I’m afraid.
    • Dang I feel bad for the kid. I’m sure he loves his dad and wants to do anything for his dad but I don’t think he realizes his dad isn’t doing the best for his football career if he keeps jumping schools.
    • I’m not taking shots at the kid, but “athlete” is not something I would use to describe him. He was a long, lengthy, defensive back
    • Mistakes like that should never happen.
