Nathan Cottrell?

yes that is who I'm thinking of. Was he an OR product.

Indy looked awesome last night. I did wonder why the 1st string was still in with 4 minutes to go with a 49 14 lead. Should have given backups some time.

After we scored our last TD, Blade pulled all the juniors out and put the seniors who don't play much into the game. They ran the ball every play and waited till the play clock was down to 5 sec before the snap. Typical stuff a coach does the last game of the season with a big lead. Not sure what the issue is.

Not sure if he was from OR. Sweet Science will have to clue us in.

No, he was originally from Halls. I'll tell you another Oak Ridge product that got away who is playing for UT now. Kyler Kerbyson who played for Catholic. He grew up in OR, and his grandfather was an All American at Oak Ridge.

I'm alright with that but I saw the QB and the other key players in there on the last plays and I was just hoping that they wouldn't score again just to rub it in.

Thanks for the good information.

Didn't Blade end Quarles long winning streak in the title game when he was at Hillsboro?

Quarles beat Blade in the 2006 title game

They always are. When was the last time an East Tennessee team won a state title?

Awesome you have Maryville that typically wins 6a, then what???? Every other class is either Middle TN or West dominated... Mainly Middle TN

It's football? Right? Or are we talking about women's tennis?

That's Gaddis' specialty (getting players out) Blade wasn't so good at that here. For whatever reason kids just didn't go out for him, and we had some transfer, too. Zak Stuart from West a few years ago was one, who was a great player. We had another go to Fulton. His name eludes me at the moment. Penny Smith who was Fulton's QB a few years ago was also originally an OR kid, I do believe.

When Gaddis was at Henry County he had all the kids wanting to play for him. Say what you want but the man knows how to get athletes on the field and to oaky for him.

You're right. He's a master motivator, and great at selling a program.
