Our record against Alcoa is 63-23-3, how does that add up?

The success Maryville  has had is unbelievable. But they have almost 3 times as many students.

Bantering back an for is fun, but we also can appreciate the accomplishments of both. 

I don't think any school in Tn history has ever beaten that years  6A state champion while being in the 3A classification ( and I think could have played in 2A classification that year if they had not chosen to moved up) 2010

During Maryville's amazing run, I think they were 148-2 in the regular season, which is unthinkable.  But those 2 losses came in consecutive years to a school with less than half their student population.

In wrestling it would be very similar to a 125 pound state champion beating the HWT state champion two years in a row.

It helps when the 3A program in question has 80 or 90 players on the roster and gets to draw some of the best talent from two 6A programs in the county.  You know.. Those two that "run from competition." lol

lol. but the other local 6A program and a close 1A program pulls kids from those schools as well

and I know you're just having fun with me but I'll still bust their chops for running from competition.

When adult leadership does things the wrong way, can't blame a parent for not wanting them leading their kid

One thing at Catholic that definitely is small will be the seating for such a big crowd the Maryville game will draw. I can't understand why it wasn't on TV. Now everyone who gets a seat will have to go set in the hot sun for two hours to do so. 

Games like that are when I appreciate my VIP seating in the end zone. Unfortunately when they designed the campus layout, not much thought was given to the athletic fields. They looked into trying to add visitors seating (after the fact) but it was not feasible. Baseball field faces the wrong direction so the pitcher and infield are looking directly into an afternoon sun.

If Alcoa starts at 5 today I might be able to slip by for an hour and 15 minutes then go see the Maryville and Oak Ridge game. Was hoping to see all four teams before the season starts.

Barney, dude so jealous of you. If you can let us know what you see with an emphasize on Oak Ridge. THANK YOU! I take these scrimmages seriously  but know Gaddis has many ideas he wants to work on.

By the way, My Go Fund Me Page to raise the $5 admission charge tonight raised a record breaking $0.00.

Willie have RW to point me out to you and make sure you set on the Maryville side or the sun will set you on fire in those aluminum bleachers during this time of the year. When they arrest someone in Maryville they take them over to the football field and make them set on that side in the sun until they give up and tell the truth. It's our police departments form of waterboarding.

    • The winds of change are blowing in Hartsville.     Will be an interesting follow.    Would go back to the 90s and turn black the clock!
    • Did he promise you a coordinator job or something if he ever got a head coaching job? He resigned? He was at the top of the dugout last night calling plays. I wonder if those 30+ parents would let him give their kids a ride. by the way the board meeting was last night and it was not mentioned. must have been at the work session earlier this week which is not public. must be trying to keep it quiet.  Since you know so much, how much is Robbie Atwood willing to pay Adam Cothron?  Didn't you slander Eden earlier on here? You also didn't know he was a faculty coach again so how much do you really know? Some people outside this county baffle me with their need to slander others.    
    • He resigned smh, and have you ever heard of charged but not convicted. Some people in this county baffle me with their need to slander others. Have you asked any of the 30+ parents that signed a petition to get him reinstated at the board meeting this week how they feel about this? Just let it play out, at the end of the day the only people that will bring TC back are the ones that know what its about at its core.    People hate losing and they aren't used to it at TC. I for 1, and I'm sure others too, understand having a dip in talent and not being able to compete for a state title every year. But in the past, TC teams have outworked more talented teams, they didn't continuously lose the turnover battle, they didn't commit 8+ penalties in several games each season, and I believe several of the folks in town that want Blake out feel as if he is neglecting the history of the program. This is from a source that used to be extremely close to the program (not me lol), Blake gets out of school midday and the players show up and there is no practice plan or itinerary.  I also understand those that are on team Blake, when he has loads of talent, he wins. He does know football and he is a tremendous DC, and if the rumors are true then he will do great things. As for the board member issue, it is what it is, everyone that's true to the county know that and nothing has changed. I agree though that they should strive to make the facilities as good as we can. And as far as potential candidates, I agree there is very few options. West, Vetetoe (yes I know), and couple others that could have some interest. Whatever happens is massive for the program during a pivotal time before the next big wave of stars make their way through.
