You all lost a good man in Coach Kries.He was a good coach and a great competitor. My prayers go out to his family and the Coalfield football family!

onb I remember Gary Kreis as a player at UT in the late 60's and a childhood hero....He had great hands and ran precise routes and started at SE on Doug Dickey's Vols for 2 years I believe...Thoughts and prayers to the family and the good people in Coalfield and Oliver Springs.....

Never saw him play but have heard tons of stories.I did play against him 4 times,2 times in 1987 on our way to the championship and man did he want to beat us!!LOL.I am good friends with some players from that team and they said he wanted that second playoff game real bad!Good memories from one of the great coaches we are slowly losing!

In remembrance of the ole ball coach I figured I'd throw his stats out there. Gary's regular season win/loss record was 147-61 (70.7%) and playoff record was 18-18 (50%) for an overall record of 165-79 (67.6%). Also he made the playoffs 18 out of the 21 years he coached (85.7%).

      Why? Low pay. Low budget thanks to the Rotary milking the programs revenue. Foul smell. There are other negative things... Positives: the players and being toward the top of the classification numbers wise.

      Who vandalized Maryville's Football Field?

      By BarneySox2007 · Posted

      What we have here is an influx of outsiders raining down on the town of Maryville like a swarm of locust trying to change our culture into the same crap they moved away from. I have no issues with anyone coming here but don't bring your politics with you. Most people around here never pay attention to the elections and keep letting the same ole rats and vermin right back in the back door and wonder why things are like they are. The problem at Maryville High is mainly due to letting outsiders get a foothold on control and shove their agenda down everyone's throat. Anyone that leaves there or let's say ranoff are replaced with an outsider with the same mindset. Eventually Maryville High will never be the same as it once was which I'm beginning to believe already but it's only chance of survival are to recruit people that will get in there and reverse the damage that has already happened.

      Athletics is just a piece. It can help them academically, socially and add confidence. I was still 17 when I finished my first quarter at UT. I was the last to get my driver's license. It's not always just for athletics.
