32hammer Champion

You're right. I think it was 32hammer. O stand corrected

Yes. I like small schools. Its better for the kids. Better for the community. Some kids live almost 16 miles from the HS.

 

If I'm not mistaken, in the 5 years before consolidation, Walland won a state championship, Friendsville had a 1 loss season and Lanier had a state rushing champ and  a guy in the NFL. Compare that with the last 30 years of WB and Heritage football.

Which do you think is better?

Walland won the 1975 State Championship in Single A, which was the spring of 1976 graduating class for the Seniors. Heritage started the very next year in the fall of 1976 with their first class graduating in the spring of 1977. Porter stayed open two years longer than Walland, Everett and Townsend. WB didn't open till the fall of 1979. When it opened they closed Lanier, Friendsville, and Porter. The Porter kids didn't go to WB though, they went to Heritage. A lot of Heritage kids in the Fairview area were re-zoned to WB and were able to transfer without sitting out in athletics.

Typo. I was thinking one thing and typed the other. The whole football season being one year and the end of school being the next year got all jumbled up between the brain and the keyboard. If ole Hammer Time would use the search engine, this has all been covered before.

      $750,000 Lawsuit Files Against Warren County School District

      I don't know what's going on in the town of McMinnville, but I've read this and it's disturbing.  I'm a "player" person, and I want what's best for the player. If a player gets cut off the team because she said the "F word" then good grief. I mean, come on guys. I wish there was a way for the player to transfer to a different program and just play ball. There are a lot of athletes that are stuck because they're in crappy situations regarding their team/coach. This is player just happens to be one them.

      Won't happen. College coaches will back the coach every time and it cost this young lady her senior season. Looks like the player may be right on this one. School let her  go after one season. This stuff happens more than you think.

      “No college is going to offer a scholarship to a player that is kicked off of the team.” For language? I’m not seeing that as a dealbreaker.

      Why did the coach get rehired after she was let go as an assistant by the former Warren County coach and the current AD?? Is that accurate?? I am very familiar with situations like this. Suprised lawsuits haven't happend before. If the coach unfairly let the player go, I think she has a shot because it cost her a scholarship. No college is going to offer a scholarship to a player that is kicked off of the team. Not going to happen. There are bad hires like this a bunch and kids are treated unfairly by coaches that can't coach a lick and have super long ropes somehow. Amazing how some of these coaches get hired and keep their job.
