Rhea County Off-season

Excited for Rhea County football! Last night's intra-squad scrimmage at practice went very well. First team offense still has work to do, but, to be fair, the first team defense didn't give them any breaks, sacking Zach at least one good time and making him run it himself more often than not on pass plays. Second team offense and defense had a pretty good showing with the offense scoring on a run by sophmore fullback Jackson Langley (#23). Third team offense and defense went well. Offense scored once on a long run by sophmore wing Gabriel Maldonado (#11). First team offense only scored on a field goal by junior kicker Haden Frasier (#1). 

The take away for me, once again, was the dominance the defense was showing. Linebackers flying to the ball, linemen putting heavy pressure on the passing game, and the secondary keeping tight coverage was the norm when it was first team offense v. first team defense. The backups looked capable of providing depth. Should be a great season for the Eagles.

Looking forward to the scrimmage next Friday at home against Austin-East! Start time is slated for 7 PM.

Yes, they scrimmaged Saturday night. It was pretty even, but in the end they won 21-14. We lost a fumble near the goal line going in and lost another fumble that really hurt. I think these things are to be expected in an early scrimmage so I would say that both teams were pretty equal.

 

Ok cool. I hadn't heard about it and he was saying he went.

    • Winfree's senior year was the season she needed to secure more college interest. That opportunity was taken away from her. A lot of false assumptions can be made about what happened and what the options are. Unfortunately, the former coach and administration did not allow Winfree to have due process. A lawsuit was filed for a reason, and it will run its course by people who conduct discovery and take depositions. Unless the parties settle out of court, a lot of the pertinent issues will come to the public surface. I wrote about many of the issues here: https://bdnewsletter.news/2023/11/17/grounds-for-investigation-and-suspension/ I interviewed Winfree after she was dismissed from the team and wrote about it here: https://bdnewsletter.news/2023/12/01/a-new-interview-with-sable-winfree/ Winfree had been on teams in Warren County since the fourth grade and never been dismissed from a team. The real questions are why was Winfree dismissed from the team, and why the administration backed a coach whom they did not rehire.
    • What is the hold up here? I have not heard anything in weeks. Are they waiting for the right person or is something else going on?
    • Per usual, we'll be hard to beat in the regular season, I'm sure. It's the post season that I'm more worried about, specifically the coaches. Maybe they'll be able to make some adjustments that will keep the momentum in our favor. How's Grays recovery coming along?
    • Something don’t add up here a college coach is not going to turn away a good player they need just because they didn’t get along with their high school coach 
    • RR, you might remember. Didn’t someone hide the kicking shoe that game? It seems I remember we had missed a kick the week before, and we needed all the points we could get. We thought we had a better chance going for two, so $?&@$ hid the shoe after the first miss that game. No one on our sideline looked for it very hard.
