william blount vs farragut


Recommended Posts

in the game? like yall outplayed MHS in the 2nd half? half your pts were on a short field and other than 1-2 plays FHS controlled los throughout and didn't mean you said fhs was bad just that I said earlier that we weren't as bad as record

Short field??? You wanna talk about a short field? We squibbed it or kicked it on side pretty much every single time we kicked off. Farragut had great field position most of the night. The score was 28-17 at halftime, we were in the game. It should have been 28-21 at the half but we had that bad snap at the 1 yard line that set us back and had to settle for the field goal. That was our only goof of the first half, and we had zero turnovers. But in the 2nd half we had multiple turnovers,penalties, and injuries. It was just a disaster. That pick 6 started it off and things just snowballed from there.

agreed your coaches decided to squib it - so we started at the 40 almost every time 45--once  that's a 60 yard drive -short?  compared to your short 30 yd drive ? maybe but should have been 28-21? well then we should have 77 instead of 63 lol T Thomas housed 2 incredible runs that were called back on bs penalties I mean sympathy penalties  but have it your way it was REALLY tight in the first half  should of could of would of I get it

So it's a sympathy penalty when you get called for holding when your players are holding? Lol

I just looked at the stats. The Govs had 409 yards of total offense to Farragut's 393. How in the world does a team outgain another team in total yards and still get beat by over 30 points? It all comes down to the fact that our offense hasn't been able to finish drives consistently and our defense can't make stops when it matters. When the Govs had that bad snap on the 1 yard line that made them settle for the field goal instead of getting the TD and the defense gave up that TD right before halftime, they found themselves in an 11 point hole, instead of being tied 21 all. If the game was tied at 21 that pick 6 wouldn't have been a dagger through the Govs heart. This just goes to show how much 1 or 2 bad plays can really make or break a team and how important it is to sell out for 48 minutes every friday night. The Govs haven't been able to do that yet this year and that's why they end up in the loss column more often than not. They just can't make plays when it really matters. They do not have the killer instinct that winning teams have. I hope they can change that.

IMO the offense is good enough to win 6 or 7 games a year. Defense is not very good at all. Young qb looked great in first half, dead on accurate and threw beautiful deep balls. Farragut kid made good play on pick 6 to start 2nd half. WB running back didn't flare out enough to take the end out of the play. QB pressed a little to much after the score widened trying to keep us in it. Overall the offense did enough to win the game if the D had showed up. Farragut looked a lot better than their record.

We have given up 70, 63, 48, and 30 + points multiple times this year. Has a WB defense ever given up this many points in a season? I know they haven't given up that many since I have been following them closely. But yea the young QB looked awesome and Hannah, Nuchols, Miller also made some good plays. So we have some reason for optimism if they can get their defensive issues worked out by next year.

    • A complete cultural change happened at Greeneville and the administration and community opened up their checkbooks.  What a lot of people don't know is Ballard was Zeller's OC for many years and stopped coaching for two years because Zeller and Ballard didn't see eye to eye on some things.  Zeller lead Greeneville to it's first ever Semi Final appearance in 2000 and lost 28-12 at Maryville and had them in the Quarter Finals in 2002 and 2003.  Z was a great coach but lost some control when it came to making workouts mandatory. (He learned from that Mistake and it was at LC when i coached with him.).  Z was let go going into my Senior Year and was replaced by Steve McCurry who was the one that turned the program around.  Steve had won a 4a state championship at AC Reynolds in Asheville and made the administration completely redo the weight room with new equipment, had a football period at the end of the school day to lift, started devil camp, and brought in coaches like Danny Bentley (Still the OL coach), Ballard as the OC, Cody Baugh (QB coach and still there), and even Spradlen who is Greeneville's head coach now as the DB's Coach.  McCurry only coached for two seasons at Greeneville and took a team that had a losing record the year before and finished my Senior Year making it to the Quarters and having a 10-3 record and then followed it up with a Semi Final appearance the next year with an 11-3 record and back to back conference championships.  Loved McCurry to death but the recession hit and the story i heard was he was still buying new equipment for the team that the Principal didn't authorize and his response was "I don't answer to you and only to Niswonger and Bewley" (Two huge donors).  That was it for him and they Promoted Ballard shortly after that.   Greeneville had always been relevant ever since the the late 70's under Coach Fred Sorrell's.  Since Sorrell's took over in 1977 Greeneville overall winning percentage is over 76%.  The biggest reason people might not have thought Greeneville was "Good" until Ballard was Greeneville always played up Classification wise and could never get over the hump. (When there were 3 classifications we played 3a, when it went to 5 we played 4a).  Greeneville is the largest its ever been with 953 students and where playing teams 2 or 3 times there size back in the day (I had a little over 800 kids in the school when i graduated in 2008).  Other teams always would know they would be sore after a game but depth took over and never won a Championship until Greeneville played in the classification the TSSAA actually assigned them. You had names like Dustin Moore (1993 Mr Football for 3a and who Phillip Fulmer said was one of the greatest athletes he ever recruited), James "Mud Turtle" Mayes, Brigham Lyons, Byron Gillespie, Frankie Debusk (National Champion Qb at Furman with GQ), Jasmine Lowery, Cody Baugh, The Greenway Brothers, Joe Watson (Furman), etc.  Now the cultural is from the Pee Wee league up and you grow up as a young kid wanting to wear the Greene and White.  Here is a really good link when it comes to anything Greeneville Football related. https://greenevillefootball.com/   I also don't coach anymore.  Z told me i was to smart with how the school systems are ran these days and ended up going into real estate in Knoxville which has been a great decision for my life.
    • Yes, they will. I'm wondering what kinds of strides Sale Creek will make heading into the second season under Coach Fitz.
    • No yellow stripes on the rug last night. Biggest crowd I’ve seen at 825 since the alco debacle. 
    • I know most Pirate starters were seniors last year. Im not sure how accurate it is but someone said we only have 3 seniors. That Prep team will probably make some noise this coming season too.
