THEY PLAY THE SAME CUPCAKES YEAR AFTER YEAR AND STAY IN THEIR LANE...6A IS NO DIFFERENT FROM 5A.....THEY DON'T GO TO GA OR S. CAROLINA OR EVEN KENTUCKY TO CHALLENGE THEMSELVES TO SEE IF THEY ARE REALLY A POWERHOUSE TEAM...

THEY TRIED ENSWORTH FOR A QUARTER AND GOT EXPOSED......I WON'T BE IMPRESSED UNTIL THEY GO OUTSIDE OF THEIR COMFORT ZONE AND PLAY SOME REAL POWERHOUSES....WILLIAM BLOUNT, WEST, HERITAGE, HARDIN, LENIOR, WEB, ALCOA, SEVIER, BEARDEN. AND FARRAGUT ARE THE TEAMS THEY PLAY YEAR AFTER YEAR AFTER YEAR AFTER YEAR....SAME RESULTS...NO CHALLENGE...REALLY???? THEY HAD A CHANCE TO PLAY 5A BALL...BUT THEY WENT RIGHT BACK TO THE SAME OLE CUPCAKES......THEY ARE THE BIG FISH IN THE POND FEASTING ON GUPPIES.....REWARD....GOLD BALL....

Salty huh? Lol. How can you not respect greatness no matter what class or sport or aspect of life it is... I don't care if they played 1a ball in Alaska 199-7 since is impressive...

I had the chance to watch the semi-final game vs Siegel a few years ago. Maryville was getting beat in the first half but they never panicked. As the game went on it became apparent that they expect

I don't buy the PA.  Explain to me the playoff and championship numbers then.   You might can win your region every year by beating up on the same old "cupcakes", but you can't go win championships and still do that.   By round three you are playing good teams.   

 

You being a Ooltewah fan should know its not easy to make a playoff run!   and I don't think your Owls are playing out of state that much either!

The Ensworth thing was a jamboree,you really can't really take anything out of that.

I thought there was 4 schools in that county.  Maryville, Alcoa, William Blount and Heritage right?

and three of those are 6A schools too right?  or is Maryville the only 6A

There are four schools but Maryville and Alcoa run their own school system while the other two are county schools. More money for funding when you have less schools.

WE DON'T CLAIM TO BE A POWERHOUSE.....I HAVE NOTHIN TO LOSE OR GAIN...I'M STATING FACTS......AND MY OPINION.....ALL I'M SAYING IS NO CHALLENGE.....AND COMING TO 5A COULD HAVE BEEN ONE IMO....I CAN'T SAY A TEAM THAT I HAVE NEVER PLAYED WOULD BEAT ME BECAUSE OF IT'S PAST HISTORY WITH THE SAME TEAMS THEY DOMINATE YEAR AFTER YEAR ........IF 5A IS A CUPCAKE THEN COME ON DOWN AND WIN A GOLD BALL OFF SOME TEAMS YOU HAVE NEVER PLAYED....THAT'S A CHALLENGE IMO BUT TO GO BACK TO FAMILIAR SURROUNDINGS....I CAN'T RESPECT THAT...

There are certainly a number of factors in play here. School system, supportive community, winning tradition, quality coaches, "team" concept, feeder program, depth, growing city, etc. But what stands out to me, more than anything else, is the kind of continuity that they've had for so long between the feeder program(s) and the high school team/coaching staff. When you've got that in your corner, you're going to be successful. That creates a ridiculous amount of quality depth and an extremely high level of preparedness.

 

And with that formula, the rich only get richer.

      several people actually. they said “snoball, do you know who railbird81 is on coacht?” I said, “never heard of her.” they said, “you ought to check it out they’re getting fired up on there like the old days.” well, you can imagine my disappointment when I came here expecting sharp, witty banter and all i found was more akin to toddlers slap fighting. and what looks like 1 guy/gal talking to themselves with multiple accounts.

Word is Witten got caught trying to work him out on campus and some 7 on 7 while playing athletics for Sullivan East. Word got around pretty quick and Someone turned them into TSSAA.

      GoFundMe for Blackman Freshman with Spinal Cord Injury

      By mat73557 · Posted

      Quick update on Jacob -  Jacob celebrated his 16th birthday at Vanderbilt on Tuesday and has been in decent spirits.  His sense of humor has begun to show as he was visited by many friends.  He is swallowing a lot better now and has eaten some of his favorites (Chik-Fil-A and Five Guys).   He is getting prepared to head to Atlanta to the Shepherd Center first thing tomorrow morning.  His family has been waiting on insurance approval. In case you dont know the Shepherd Center it a world class facility and supposedly one of the best in the country for spinal injury rehab.  Praying for perfect results there. Considering the circumstances, Jacob is in decent spirits.  He has some reflexive movement in his legs which I think is probably a very positive sign.  Don't read too much into that just yet as there is no telling what the real prognosis is... just hopeful that is good thing.  I am really just happy that it seems like he has a punchers chance of getting something back.  He is a strong young man and very determined so I think he will fight as hard as he can in physical therapy while down in Atlanta. More than one of you has asked me about an address to send donations.  I know GoFundMe isn't for everyone.  If you want to go that route, you can make a check to "Blackman Wrestling Club" and we will pass anything received directly to the Kinderdines.   Jacob Kinderdine c/o Blackman Wrestling 4836 Trevino Court Murfreesboro, TN  37128 Also, want to thank everyone who has donated so far.  Jacobs dad will take a month off work and stay in Atlanta with him.  They need to learn how to take care of him and do home therapy work..... and surely Jacob will be glad his dad can be there.  All that could not happen without you all.  Depending on what happens, they will probably end up doing some home remodeling in order to accommodate Jacob at their home.  Thanks again. Here's a pic I lifted from Facebook of Jacob on Oxy talking to his Uncle.  LOL
