Back when we ( Maryville ) played Clinton it never failed every time I got to the game I had to end up setting on the Clinton side because there were no seats. Two years ago I went there to a jamboree and was surprised to see the new stands on the opposite side of the field and plenty of seating. I honestly didn't see anything wrong with the concrete stadium unless there were issues I don't know about. I despise having to go somewhere that has those aluminum bleachers and set there like a trapped animal and having to get up and down to let someone by that can't set their butt down for two minutes.

I've always loved those concrete bleachers! It was very hard for me to make the transition to the other side. It just doesn't feel right to me still today.

No, I just find it hard to believe that there is more talent at schools like Halls and Campbell Co when it comes to basketball. Clinton boys and girls won last night against Central. Our boys teams haven't been the same since Don Locked left.

Don's last year was 2000 I believe. His son Chris took over and the Dragons won the district in '01 and went to the state in '04 and substate in '05. We also won the district in 2010. Since then it has been lean with only one regional appearance in '13. Hopefully we can get back to the regionals this year, as the district tournament is at the Donnie Dome.

 

Excited to see coach Gaylor back to help and coach McKamey and some of his assistants here as well. Coach Byrd in baseball is a good hire too, as he is bringing enthusiam and working the boys really hard.

 

Exciting time in Dragonland!!!

I have heard that they are tearing down the concrete bleachers down and building new ones with a locker room. And also making that the new home side like it used to be.

Well if we make it the home side again I hope we make it larger with more room and maybe back rests like the Lady Vol softball stadium has.

 

Miss the ole home side as well.

There is alot of excitement brewing in Clinton, not just the fans but even the players I've talked to.

I think we will be more competitive this year just because everyone has a positive attitude. This is what Clinton has been missing and that is one of the many reasons we needed a change.

    • Most of this is complete gibberish. But the one part I could decipher is putting kids in college. This coaching staff hasn’t put a single Bearden kid in college. They completed wasted one of the best WRs in East TN and have ruined two talented QBs. All because they’re in over their heads. 
    • Well, I’d hope the new coaching staff thinks they are all that because they can always walk around the school, anytime they want, thinking that, especially for what they’ve done for the student athletes and the players, putting more kids in college in his first season than the old coaching staff did in numerous years combined, but we will just sweep over that because I know you don’t like facts. But trust me, nobody wanted Mr. Big britches, made the star player switch to quarterback, which is ultimately the reason he ended up transferring to play the position. He loved, but unfortunately, had to be at another school because Mr. Big Britches doesn’t like when a teenager knows more than him, but can’t expect much coming from a guy who used all class throwing pencils up into the ceiling and making fun of football kids who were failing class right to their face, and in front of numerous students, even projecting on the board most of the time.
    • After that first paragraph, I can see why you’re a TA and not a teacher. Have you made the move from South Knoxville to Bearden yet?    Maybe he left because he is an actual teacher and coach, and didn’t want to be associated with a group of foul mouthed middle school coaches who like to pretend they’re big time. 
    • Yeah and the coach is gone. Whole bizarre situation here. We played them a couple of times at MTSU last few years. She was a player for sure. 
    • This whole situation is bonkers. You don’t just kick your star player off the team just because you heard them say the F word; the coach definitely had something against the player, or somebody definitely did. Also, nobody has brought up the idea that the school blackmailed the college to get the college to withdraw the scholarship offer, not to mention that the coach who kicked her off is no longer even with the program; they were fired. I think this is a pretty easy lawsuit. I don’t know if she should deserve that much money, but I think she should get enough money for a full-ride scholarship if she cannot get one after this situation.
