Whats even worse is we dropped in the rankings. Etown didn't play and moved up 2 spots, GP got upset and stayed  where they were and we never got a single vote.Oneida got the same treatment.Oh well, It is what it is.

HAHA! That's funny right there....On a good note, we're the ones talking about this and it appears the boys couldn't care less...They're just wanting to win

And if they win enough,  they will get some attention as it goes along. Rankings at this point means nothing and its really all about how many local papers try to help you. My only concern is these kids staying healthy and getting the fruits of their labor. We've got some kids who deserve ALOT.

Heck! Unaka was good enough to get a 1/2 page article in the Press LOL

BUT, Fritz did say our 500+ yd game peaked his interest....Who cares! :angry:

Our local media has gone dramatically down hill. I think Tim Chmabers writes for a paper in mountain city now. Maybe there will be some good coverage of your all a game Friday in that one at least.

Pujo....didn't put any stock in preseason polls and could care less if we are ranked in AP.  Let it get settled on the field, can't get it wrong there much.  Believe it or not we chucked the forward pass...!  That headline news in any paper.  Other thing good about it....dudes on the other end caught'em.

Passing game could help you guys a ton. Really don't need to throw it alot but you have to keep teams honest.

We will get a good write up from Tim...The Star is ridiculous and it's probably not the sports writer's fault...They don't cover much anymore, and even quit printing FB programs for the schools! Now, you know there was money to be made in that!

Whomever took over seems to be trying to run the Star farther in the ground than it already was

Yea, what Pujo said.....The way I look at it is, if we were a ranked team or on the radar, heading to GP (a ranked team) then there's more interest in that game from those at the next level.

Not much can be done about it, it's just a shame that many hard working kids dont have the support of local media helping get them to the next step....It's not about getting lil Johnny his minutes of fame b4 he graduates   

 

As far a being listed on the pole, just to be there...Couldn't care less

We actually had alot of coverage last week, Asheville Citizen, Avery Journal, Star,Carter County Sports. WCYB and WJHL. Only one lacking was the Press. I also think there is going to be a special preveiw of all the area teams in the star on Thrusday.

My post was based on past experience.....Heck, if they printed stats about a game last season, you know where they got their stats from! Wasn't anything they sat down to do themselves.

I will say, some seem to be doing better based on preseason & first game info...Still haven't seen a stat on tackles, and so on, have you?

 

BTW, Collin Brooks has a new digital magazine out that showcases all local teams...All local fans should take a look at it

    • I hear the Stansberry kid is having receiver's come out all the time to help put in some work.    RWR!! I hope 20+ kids are showing up. 
    • I think that pretty much sums it up, really. To be perfectly honest, I'm far less sour about Eagleville getting to host themselves in the state tournament every year than I am the fact that we find ourselves in a position that we have to play STATE TOURNAMENT games at a blamed Single A facility. 
    • It's time to put away with the award. 18 players selected, and 17 of those players are from Middle and East Tennessee. I guess they don't play baseball in West Tennessee. I understand there will be players that were "snubbed." We can make a legit argument that it occurs in Mr. Football and as well as Mr./Mrs. Basketball. But baseball is not a place where we can sit here and say "these are the 3 best players in this class and that class."  And we got to get rid of these polls bullcrap that's being released. It's all nonsense. 
    • Thanks. I'm just trying to understand how this process works.   It seems like a bit of a sweetheart deal to me but the cookie has to crumble somewhere I guess.  
    • He won’t got anywhere he has it made in h20 he prob makes almost what a head coach in t c makes plus there’s not as much pressure there everyone is a use to the losing there. I say he will be there for many years just waiting for Webster to leave…
