Tight Ends Blocking or catching?

Here's is some fresh fat to chew. This may be my naivety, but why is it that 7 AAA ball does not utilize the tight end in small screen passes or little drag routes? Seems to me with the size and speed of some of these tight ends 3 and 5 yard screen passes would be magic, but looks like most schools just use them as another blocker. Especially teams that have a tendency to play hard off the edges.I just can't believe that in all of Tennessee we don't have an exceptional catching Tight end.

It's still the 20th century for most TN high schools, however teams from Memphis throw the ball to the TE

    • Never said I thought it was a smart decision. I'm scratching my head at it too.
    • If he wanted to play QB he should have either went to Heritage or William Blount and had a real good chance there. In stead he'll be exactly what he was going to be at Maryville. They already know who their QB is going to be in 2025 and it ain't going to be him.
    • Easier said than done. The man who ran for 250+ yards and 3TDs is gonna be back….and a lot bigger.
    • plus it removes the pressure around winning.
    • 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.
