I went to my sons middle school game this evening and was dumb founded(unbelievable huh?) The game ended up tied up and in overtime. The opposing team stopped the run and took over on downs. They ran three plays and then trotted out the kicker . The ref then told the team that they were not allowed to rush the kicker or attempt the block or there would be a penalty and a re-try.because the kicker is a  girl. so she basically gets a free shot at a field goal off the tee at 10 yards.  You ever hear that you can't rush the kicker or block the kick in middle school?

Our Blount County Jamboree has that rule. The coaches agreed on this some time ago. The jamboree doesn't count. It's basically a glorified fashion show for teams to show off new unis.

oh well, I thought maybe there was some rule that you couldn't rush the kicker in overtime or some silly something I had never heard. As far as I know you can't tell a team they have to take a play off ... pretty stupid... Should have never let it come down to a play anyway, but was dumbfounded when the team just lined up and let them snap set and kick and no one came off the corner. Heck I had time to go get  popcorn during that play alone...

I get it if it is a Jamboree, but this is district play... no warm up.... This game counts and the two of eight teams plays for county Championship.

    • 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.
