The Spencer Riley era at Jefferson County officially begins this Friday as the Patriots travel to Karns to take on Grace Christian Academy.  The Patriots handled Grace 48-21 last year but there are a lot of new faces on both sides of the ball to go along with a new offense.  Both teams will have new starting quarterbacks. 

 

I think the game could be close for a while but I'm hoping that in the end, Jefferson County's depth wears Grace down.

That's my take on this game as well. JC's depth should be the deciding factor in the end. JC 28 GCA 14

GCA lost 22 seniors off last years team and to my knowledge they didn't get any transfers in which will make it extra tough. Last year GCA should of gave a better game but things just didn't work out that way. I was heading to the Heritage and Maryville game but since the QB for the Mountaineers will be out most of the season that game won't be worth ten cents to watch. I have a family member that is on GCA so I will most likely go to this game now. Jefferson should win big but in all reality this game should have never been scheduled in the first place.

You're probably right Barney but the overwhelming consensus last year was that Grace was going to win going away.  Of course, Grace was coming off a 10-4 season while Jefferson County was coming off a 2-8 season, their worst in school history. 

 

It sounds like both schools are in rebuilding mode.

Yep I remember. I think the boys got the big head when they played Clinton in a scrimmage and won and started counting chickens before they were hatched but that's the mindset of a high school kid and you can't tell them anything because they already know it all.

      Pickett is good, may have a Mr. Football like season if he’s used correctly. One of the best teams Marion has fielded in a while. I think they go 12-1 and loose to ER.  ER has better players at almost every position. If they play discipline this year, they win soundly. If they don’t though…Marion could sneak away with it.

      I’m betting the house on the Indians. Pickett and Co will be the only team to challenge the Indians in the East. Huntingdon can in the West. I think Brooks goes 15-0 and has the first perfect season and state championship in ER history.

      Sounds like a great opportunity has opened up for the football team.  With the head coach of the diamond rebels making it official and quitting this week, there should be some room for the gridiron guys to benefit. I assume the administration won’t continue paying six figures to two former coach that quit to continue teaching drivers Ed. Thats pretty good money that could be redirected toward the football program. Also, with the more recent policies of pushing kids to only play one sport, abolishing the baseball program altogether would help on Friday nights in the fall. There is some decent speed on that baseball team that should’ve been playing on Fridays IMO. I’m not sure if anybody would really miss that baseball program anyway with it being across town from the school. The liability of letting players actually use the facilities could also be mitigated with closing the program. That liability seems to be a really big issue for 825. Anyway, it seems like a great opportunity is available.

      Yeah, I read about their spring blue/gray scrimmage after I typed that.   Sounds like a real mess over there.  I just hate that for 'em.  Haw

      Maybe OR will be, but Farragut, nah, I don’t think anybody realizes how much of a bad situation that program is in currently. I’m sure they will build out of it, but the next 3 to 4 years are going to be a long climb up.
