Reading all of this is actually kind of amusing. Do l think Coalfield recruits? Who knows? Maybe. But I also believe that some of those kids want to play for a top notch team. Someone on here earlier said that Wartburg football has been a mess for 50 years? I can't agree, because I played on a Wartburg team that beat Coalfield three years in a row. Granted, that's been many years ago and Coalfield didn't have the program they do now. But I feel that the dogs are in another Larry Davis "slump" now that won't change until he's gone. I hear Wartburg has a good middle school program that's very well coached and I hear they have a kid that's a heck of a player and all this will bode well for the dogs future on the high school level(providing he doesn't go to Coalfield! Iol!) Anyway I look for Coalfield to roll over the dogs this week and yet again Larry Davis can be heard saying, " the effort wasn't there....I just don't understand...."

IF your profile is correct then we played together and I only  played coalfield twice in my 4 years because they was not on the schedule in 86 and 87 and if not what years did you play

The recruiting budget isn't up to snuff if Coalfield is just getting Oakdale, Oliver Springs and Wartburg kids. You could combine those three teams and not win a middle school championship. Greenback has the heavy recruiting budget. Picking fallen apples from Alcoa, Maryville, William Blount, Loudon, Sequoyah and Alabama. I talked to a man that has a nephew that plays at Wartburg and he said they have players that transferred in from Sunbright and Coalfield. They were "talked" into playing football with chance of more playing time from some Wartburg boosters.

I think one of our waterboys went to Wartburg. He was one of the best we had. He will be sorely missed. I hope he gets a car though because that is one long trip by a riding lawnmower.

To get the good ones you need to know how to recruit and what to offer them fallen apples. I would tell you what to offer but then everyone would get our new recruits lol 😎

Well, like I've stated on here before, I never said what the 86 means, but let's just say I played a few years before you and we did beat Coalfield 3 times. One year we were a decided underdog and still won. Yes, I remember the first years Wartburg moved up to 2a, I was probably in the military at that time. But I do remember the years you refer to. That was the Bill Winstead "dear in the headlights" time when the dogs were so overmatched, most games were a debacle and serious beat downs....kinda like now.

Heck, in 2010 Wartburg had a good team. I believe the score was 12-6 that year. Great game!

Right you are, rt. They actually went to the state quarter finals that year and ran into a buzz saw in Boyd Buchannon that resembled an Alabama team! But yes Coalfield did beat them that year in a great game with a packed house. I really would like to see this rivalry competitive again. Even back in my day, it was always a heated, emotional affair, but I had friends that played for Coalfield, not to mention a relative or two.

I'm just ready for the Harriman and Coalfield game. I think Harriman will win it, because I don't think Coalfield can keep up with all of Harriman's athletes.
