Congratulations to the Union City Golden Tornado and their 1st 2A state championship. They are not very exciting to watch but what they do is run the ball and beat you up front and they do it to perfection. Those kids were written off after Mayfield and especially after Adamsville. But I have been around several of these kids and coached a few of them( in recreation baseball ) their mentality is never top till horn sounds. Great job young men and Coaching Staff..

They weren't written off by anyone that really knows what they are all about.

I am just telling several people had them losing to Peabody. Their defense came together and starting playing good football when it counted. Like I said I have known several of these young men and they have a lot of heart and fight in them. But the truth is a lot of people were shocked to see them get this far. I didn't say I was one of them.

Hard game to watch but got exciting at the end, wouldn,t be much fun playing for UC. I'd rather play horse shoes . lol. 30 was a BEAST but Ithink it would have worked with 21 as well. 21 was a monster on d.

Yeah he had over 800 yards rushing on the season and at least one 200+ rushing night filling in for Trey Jones #30...

The defense is what had everyone questioning if they could go all the way...The loss to Mayfield, not the loss but the way we lost and the Adamsville game...You can't give up 54 points in a game, in regulation,and be thrilled about your chances of winning a Gold Ball...They really tightened their chinstraps the last three games though...

Our defense has been a work in progress all season. Ugly at first but got prettier as the season progressed. Not a 10 maybe a 7 or 8, but it put a Gold Ball in the case.

    • What you are saying is true about high school athletics being a privilege and not a right, but NO ONE ever knows what will happen if a case goes before a jury.  Again, I have been in a couple of jury rooms and it's always a little crazy.  That is why my prediction is you will see a settlement before the case goes to trial.
    • What rules does everyone not operate by?
    • So you want a have and have not split? Sound like the perfect ramp to elitism. Tell those rural kids that they'll never be able to compete with those urban kids. They're not good enough right? Or we could just do what travel baseball does and have tournaments every weekend and give kids big fake rings for winning a few games. The suburban public schools are typically the ones with more funds. Urban and rural schools have more in common in finances than they do with rural schools. I've taught and coached in all of it. The difference is attitude. But if you're jsut going to say you can't compete because you don't have the money then that's an excuse. Especially in basketball. The balls are the same size, the rims are the same height and size. The ball dribbles the same in some rural gym in mountains as it does in the FedEx forum. Charters come and go like a fart in the wind. They are no real threat to anyone. Magnets could be but rarely do they win either. It just hasn't been seen in Tennessee.  
    • That’s a good line. Wins would be Soddy, Howard, and Ooltewah. Maybe East Ham again or Knox Central. Tyner maybe but being that late in the year it’s hard to say. I don’t think we get by Red Bank this year.    Rhea could be anywhere from 2-8 to 6-4. 
    • I agree with the Farragut and Bradley claim. Those will both be wins. Bearden like you say is depending on when you get them in comparison to when the wheels fall off.  As far as West goes I’m 50-50. They have been able to reload so far so until they show me they haven’t I can’t count them out.
