69-7 Oak Ridge. Why is Karns always bad? I never really get a good answer from anyone over that way. It's like a big black cloud hangs over that place for some reason.

Most of the good players that live in the Karns District transfers to other schools. Like the 6'3 Freshman OL that goes to Catholic, plus the big Freshman DL that goes to Catholic. Deshawn McKinney WR at Fulton lives in the Karns school district. A few yrs ago Daryl Rollins Davis the all everything RB at Fulton also lived in the Karns district. They just can't keep kids that live in Karns. But who blames them. Karns changes coaches every few yrs.

I think its a two part problem. First, kids naturally want to be part of a winner.  Karns has had one good season ever.  Second, kids just don't want to be a Beaver.  Beavers ain't cool.  Rebels, Falcons, Irish, etc.  way cooler.  Seriously, I have had a transfer player that lives in the Karns zone actually say these words to me, "My mom didn't want me to be a Beaver"

Ha Ha.  The older of two brothers that were both good players told me that.  Both kids were 3 year starters, but not for Karns.  This could be a good thread topic:

 

"What should Karns change their nickname/ mascot to?"  

 

Killerz? How 'bout Krushers?

 

Chattanooga high schools have two great nicknames in Chatt. Central Purple Pounders and even better, GPS - Girls Prep. School Bruisers.

 

Karns could become the Vandals, Huns, Crushers, Wildcats, or Satanic Klowns.

Or the Bulls....What a change that would be...From a weak paltry utterly non-intimidating animal to the type of animal/man to be feared on the field and in the bedroom.

    • Y’all boys can’t spell discipline. Probably lead the state in personal fouls last year. Being halfway disciplined in 1 game against Smith County in 3rd round doesn’t dismiss the rest of the season. “Shoulda” won the state championship but those mouths got the best of you yet again. Marion already had a lot more retuning than y’all this year. Adding these 2 D1 kids will 100% make a major impact. Marion will stand on business this year. They haven’t forgotten. I’m just keeping it real
    • MC upgraded with 2 studs. If they can’t get it done this year with a generational speed talent in Pickett then I’m not sure they ever will. Huge favorite in the East currently.    Multiple offers from FCS calls for gold. 
    • no they will be tough for sure
    • Marion just jumped ER as the favorites in the East. Two big time transfers for y’all kinfolks. Bullseye has been set now. I said it the last two years it is time and both times y’all let me down. Can’t say you’re short on talent this year or that you’re young. Time to put up or shut up. Surely y’all can get over the hump this year. I’m just keeping it real
