Science Hill Comes to Oakland


Recommended Posts

Oakland steps into their second row game not having been challenged all year but this Friday night things get turned up a notch with a strong East Tennessee team from Science Hill comes into Murfreesboro. Science Hill is riding a 5 game winning streak with their only losses this year to Maryville, Bradley Central and this week’s Riverdale opponent Hardin Valley. Hardin Valley is capable of putting up points averaging 46 points a game over their 5 game winning streak. They bring a balance run pass offensive but have given up points on the other side of the ball. They are well coached and seem to be peaking at the right time with a 48-0 shout out over Siegel Friday.

 

Oakland on the other hand has been dominating on both sides of the ball. After seeing then several times this year’s faults are hard to come by but they have been a little week over the middle on the short to intermediate passes. This game will be a step up on the level of competition they have faced in awhile so they will have to caution themselves on a mental let down. If they play with the intensity they are capable of bringing then they should advance on to the third round.

What do you mean by their second row game?

Excuse me???? I didn't have that high paid Maryville education like you and if all you have to do is hit someone on a typo I feel sorry for you. And by the way im at 95% on all of my picks this year...

You don't know what Leonard's Losers is, do you? Pick the search engine of your choice and do a little research. Leonard's losers was a college football radio show that started in 1958 by a guy named Leonard Postero. It was taped at WRFC-AM in Athens, GA. The show described college football matchups and then predicted which team would lose. Postero taped his show using a pseudonym of "Leonard Postosties" and was introduced by his sidekick "Percy Peabody" (also voiced by Postero). The show's "schtick" was a rural delivery style (à la Jerry Clower and comedic scripts using alternate team nicknames related to the school mascot or the school itself. Some of these references included "riflemen" for the University of Tennessee Volunteers, "red clay hounds" for the University of Georgia Bulldogs, "giant water lizards" for the Gators, "pachyderms" for the University of Alabama (because of their elephant mascot), and "the Pope's pupils" for the University of Notre Dame (for its status as a Catholic university). Leonard claimed that he possessed a "little smart pill machine" to come up with his prognostications and always closed his broadcast with a plea to his sidekick to "get me outta here, Percy." At the height of its popularity, Leonard's Losers was carried on over 1400 radio stations.

 

Why are you so defensive and why do you jump to conclusions? As we say down south, you're tighter than Dick's hatband.

    • One final thought. Coach Keith claims he was not aware of the player's failing grades. I won't comment on that, just to say this, IF he did not, whose job was it to see that this kid did not play ball at CHS? That person should be looking for a job and they might be, I don't know.
    • They have fired the principal, 2 teachers, at least 1 counsellor and 1 coach so far. I don't see it from my view in Oak Ridge as a coach thing, he  was just implicated in asking 1 teacher to  fix 1 kid's grades.   In our local media(Clinton and Oak Ridge)the principal is who is the originator and pusher of the fraud. The others are peripheral. The coach isn't even the big story, just here on a sports site.  The media view is the principal did it to cause CHS to be seen as excellent by the state. He committed fraud to do that so he might spend a little time in jail IF that is valid.
    • And from coach himself, he wasn’t told he was let go because of the ineligible player.    that’s just what the schools needed to happen to fit their bull 
    • Wish it was made clear before a coach gets let go or not retained instead of being sold as the reason he was in trouble. I was told the kids who got grades changed, 97% or better were non athletes but the coach is taking all the heat so the schools can pretend it wasn’t their job to know. heck, what do you think could happen when you hire husband and wife as head principal and head guidance….   that’s not being said though…
    • Hmmmmm……doe dee doe doe.  Last time I came up there to watch my pirates one of those guys in that pickup trucks flattened the tires on the lawnmower.  This is payback.  You can bet the lawnmower on that.
