Hey, even the "Sweet One" is wrong ever now and then. I could've swore SI told me he was on the relay team yesterday, so I blame him LOL Sorry, SI haha. See, not everything is Gaddis' fault. But, if it isn't his fault it is BFSI's fault lolol Love you guys.

 

Yes, and even I am wrong (if you talk to my kids that is often).  Sorry for the misinfo SS!

I was there. They had to run the 100 into a nasty headwind so the times are slow. He also ran out of lane 8 which wouldn't be the best lane because he couldn't see the whole field. He looked even better in the 4x100 where it looked like the 3rd runner stumbled or ran out of gas just as he got to graham but graham flew on the straightaway. Honestly he looks more impressive than last year whether he's hurt or not. OR had a strong group of sprinters because they didn't run the same group for both sprint relays but were still very good. I think several of them are football players so that should bode well for them this fall.

I was there of course, Oak Ridge wins 4x100 if 3rd leg doesn't pull up. He seemed hurt or something. Graham basically had to slow down and wait for baton. But he made ground quickly. On 100 he didn't look to push out on start which makes sense if a hip area injury but once up and going he motored down. I was sitting with DB parent and he said Graham is one kid who's as fast on a field as he is on a track. Not many people can convert that speed. An OR parent said on both relays relays it was only 1 SR. And they all play football.

Rivalry Thursday will not carry any Oak Ridge games this season according to Mark Packer. He said he offered OR a game but Coach Mullins declined.

 

Oak Ridge is among several area schools that are opting not to host those games.  Some feel that the way that the broadcasts alter the normal flow of the game and game week is much too distracting.

 

In order to get Maryville on the air, Rivalry Thursday is going to Ooltewah in week 9.

    • Oh yeah, I’m sure you are different people just always on the same thread for some reason, always agreeing with each other, perhaps just a bunch of dorks who would like to ###### and moan about high school football coaches do a lot of other students, so you make a football team and get a yell at them. When they do something wrong, but I’m sure you don’t like that, do you?   and I’m sure I’m aware of where you get information. A teacher who was on the coaching staff but was fired after the new coaching and staff came in and realized he actually had to start taking his assistant job a little bit more seriously than just wanting to make a little extra cash on the side, hardly even showing up to most practices, should’ve left with his buddy to go to Farragut. I’m sure he could get him a defensive coaching job, but I doubt he will be there in three years. Looking at the way Farragut is currently going.
    • It may be hard to believe but there’s more people than me that think you guys are a bunch of losers.    I’m sure the coaching staff, yourself included, cursed at a bunch of high school students. Nobody could name more than 3 coaches on staff due to the constant turnover. 
    • That's complete BS.  Nobody at ACHS has access to CHS student records unless a transfer is made from CHS to ACHS.  
    • Trez's last scandal has died down, so I guess this is there opportunity to be the best 4A team playing in 2A a la Sissy MTN.  At least they won't be in a Z-district with 1a teams in the regular season.
    • Facts...until someone takes down the Rebels they should be the favorite. Got loads of young guys salivating at the opportunity to prove themselves and get a 3peat! Blazer how is Region 1 looking this year?
