Athlete for athlete this one isn't close, but.....  Coach Webb will have a plan to run the clock and keep this one close for awhile. I believe Tyner will hit some long passes that will ultimately be the difference in the game. Tyner by 21 after pulling away in the second half. 

You may be right about the long passes and I could see Tyner winning just because of who they have on their team. The amount of great athletes they have is incredible. Athletes we don't compare, but I bet they have more heart. They want to win and it's shown. I kind of feel like this compares to Austin East. Not saying Tyner is AE and AE is Tyner, but both have some pretty good athletes. I only mention AE because the players alone are similar to what Tyner has to offer. I do believe Rockwood will be prepared, obviously I have to say that or what kind of fan would I be? I want them to win, but I won't be surprised if they don't.

I agree with you. I know Rockwood will be prepared and play hard.  Tyner is one of those teams though that a lot of time even if you out play them you still come up short because of the amount of big, fast, athletic kids they have every year. When they don't commit turnovers and get costly penalties they are always very hard to beat. That's been the difference for them the last few months.

    • You are correct.   The teacher's pay scale is virtually the same in Knox County, now, as it is at Oak Ridge.   The coaching supplements are still higher at Oak Ridge, from what I was told, but not a huge difference.   Plus, Rusty is going from a position coach to an OC position, which is what he was at South Doyle and where his comfort zone is.  And from a special education teaching slot to a PE teaching slot.  There is a lot of positivity in that move without even considering the coaching aspect.   Anybody who sees something negative here is just looking for negativity to begin with.  But some live in that world.   Really good hire for Brent.  He now has two experienced and quality coordinators and can concentrate on being a head football coach.  
    • He was pretty darn good for a freshman, but he will have a hard time seeing the field at Oakland for a good while, I’m afraid.
    • Dang I feel bad for the kid. I’m sure he loves his dad and wants to do anything for his dad but I don’t think he realizes his dad isn’t doing the best for his football career if he keeps jumping schools.
    • I’m not taking shots at the kid, but “athlete” is not something I would use to describe him. He was a long, lengthy, defensive back
    • Mistakes like that should never happen.
