Lol I see your point, but can you blame him if that's why he chose to play for them? I can't. I mean if I knew for a fact I wasn't going to get any playing time I may have chose the same thing. Not gonna lay a lot of blame on a 16 yo kid for wanting more playing time as much as I love the Cats.

Looking back at our receivers and DBs I actually think he would've started here so unless he wanted to be "the man" with a losing team rather than a contributor with a winner, then it's strange to me. I would assume Clinton feels the same way...if they have a player there who would rather be a Wildcat then I assume their position is "good riddance!"

Ask 92Dragon if he would've liked for Isaac Chapman to stay and play at Clinton. I bet he would come back with a resounding yes. For what it's worth I don't look at Clinton as ISIS like you do lol. It's just not THAT serious to me.

I've made it clear in consecutive posts that my position is that if anyone chooses or prefers to leave OR and go to Clinton, then I personally don't want them. That's a general statement that I stand by without compromise. In your example, that's different. But I've heard that OR had a player leave because he wanted more PT and more "touches"...if true, good riddance. Go be a dragon, keep up with your stats and count your losses.

You are a very bitter human being.

That made me literally LAUGH OUT LOUD! I'm far from that but I do take high school, college, and NFL football seriously. If a player wants to leave Riverdale and go to Oakland, I must assume the feelings of the Riverdale community are "good riddance"...not "good luck". If a player would rather leave Auburn and play at Alabama, I must assume that the Auburn Nation would say "good riddance"...not good luck. If a player decides he would like to leave FSU and play at Florida, I bet the Seminole community is thinking "good riddance"...not "good luck". If a player wants to leave Farragut and play at Bearden, I seriously doubt the Farragut fans/players are saying "good luck", rather than "good riddance". If a player at Clinton prefers to play at OR, I'll bet you that the Dragons will say "good riddance", and not "good luck". I'm being realistic...not bitter and not politically correct. I would wish no ill will on a player for leaving OR to go to Clinton...I just say "good riddance"...with no bitterness or malice.

Who said anybody said "good luck" to him? Although I would, because I'm a nice guy like that and I can put things in perspective and realize that football is just a sport and it is/was a 16 yo kid at the time we are talking about. :) Relax, broski..

I'm not a "bad guy" because I feel the way that I do, nor am I bitter. But I am NOT politically correct either. Example...Jalen Hurd...good riddance!!!

You are more politically correct than you think. Maybe not in this instance, but if someone is critical towards any part of the coaching staff or team you become unhinged lol. Like most posters you are scared of offending someone :( That is being politically correct. Me on the other hand. I don't care. If I feel the coaching staff deserves criticism then I will gladly give it. But, keep on thinking you are like Donald Trump :)

      When she starts farting around with the football team the powers in Maryville will run her out of town on a rail and everyone connected with letting her in the door. You saw what happened when Alcoa's radio announcer thought he was coming to Maryville, the people rose up and stopped it.

      West TN Head coach jobs

      By sportslover88 · Posted

      20 but had 5-6 not dressed every game. It went down towards the end due to injuries and obviously only 15 got to dress for the state tournament. Then, they only lost 2 from this year and gain 8 from the middle school for next year

      Clinton grade changing scandal

      By oridgecat · Posted

      As somebody mentioned before, this is going to result in a massive lawsuit, can you imagine professional "educators" actually having the conversation about getting "the bad kids" out of the high school?  And the head coach asking directly to change grades, gets turned down, comes back again and gets it approved?  This is unbelievable.  In addition to the lawsuit, the state Department of Education is going to come down extremely hard on this.  WYSH is on the war path.  There could be dozens more lose their jobs by the time this is over.  And yeah the real shame is the kids being affected that literally had nothing to do with this and actually worked hard to earn their grades.

      I've heard Powell from someone who talked to him. I saw the kid two days ago and I should of pulled over and talked with him and wished him well where ever he goes. It will be a ale of a loss for us because I don't believe we have anyone in the stable good as him from what I seen in the spring.

      Clinton grade changing scandal

      By boyfromsi · Posted

      I would have to think that the firing of the 2 teachers is just the beginning of future moves.  If not, it is woefully short.  If the AC school board thinks that the damage is just limited to Clinton, they are sadly mistaken.  Any outsider would view the whole school system as suspect, and rightly so.
