It was games like this that gave me a wierd feeling in my stomach, I can't get a feel on this game at all. The last time I remember Rhea County was an Ooltewah homecoming opponent was 1986, Andy Kelly's senior year, and it was 21-7 that night. That was during the bad old days of Ooltewah football. I miss going against Coach Horton, his teams played hard and were so classy, plus pretty darn good (state AAA finalist that year I believe) I wish I could be there, but glad it will be on TV,

Great post, Coach Horton was a class act. He is missed not only as a football coach but as a leader, a mentor, a friend and just a really good person.

    • Im asking everyone to keep roy whited and his family in your prayers. Coach whited won back to back state championships at white county in 98-99. He is very well liked and respected in this area. For those of you that dont know he went missing 3 days ago. No one knows where he is. His truck was found in a rural part of the county. Thanks again. We are all very concerned. 
    • West would be a good team to get behind if they can pull it off again like last year. That championship game last year was awesome. 
    • I say that because he stepped out of a MUCH better situation on his own than he would see at least his first 3 years at DCA and it would take at least that much to bring him back to coaching. There are other fish in the sea, but again money talks. Need to fix the girls hoops too. Now I'll try again. Who has Pierce locked in for his staff? Hearing a McGavock man but not the Iceman.
    • I’ve heard mostly good things from the gridiron. Lots of optimism. It sounds like the portal has mostly helped, though there are a few expected defections. Comeback year!
    • Rudesell 1 year at Crockett. Coach Tate 2 weeks a Bradford. South Gibson supposedly going with jcs middle school coach. Which isn’t who I thought would get it, I know the top 2 was between him and Obion girls head coach.
