I worry about you sometimes Willie. 

You and me sister. Thank you for your concern and I will try and straighten up and fly right. Beat those Pats from Oakland,

Here is a story about Oak Ridge and Oakland. Back in the late 1990's, OR played Oakland at LaVergne HS because MTSU was working on their field. Oakland jumped all over the Wildcats and at the half was up 28 - 0.

During the Halftime the Oak Ridge band just went nuts and played Loud and Proud the entire game

Coach Gaddis led the Wildcats out going nuts and the OR faithful went crazy. OR QB Jared Tharpe played the game of his life and the game was tied 28 - 28 at the en of the game. The Wildcats scored and made the XP in OT. Oakland scored but missed there. Fun ride back home

I'd tend to agree if this is a close game or DB wins .However,you never know the whole story until the season is complete.I hope Greeneville can win another title this year but no team is guaranteed that at this point and time.So many factors can derail a season .

So very true. A key injury here or there and there goes the season.

DB has a good football team.  Throwout that 43-3 loss at the hands of Greeneville.  You have to understand just how good this years Greeneville team is, just watch the highlight footage on p62 of the Greeneville @ DB thread..  They are going to abuse everybody they play, not just DB.  OR better come prepared for a dogfight.

You have to understand that score could of been worse, much worse. You have to understand DB is a 6A school with a very good tradition and is the 2nd winningest school in the state. Yeah, Greenville is a awesome football team and without taking anything away from them DB was terrible Friday night. I don't think anybody (even DevilMan} expected it to be that easy. It was truly like a high school vs. a middle school. It was not the players. DB has good athletes. We will see if the coaches can get their #### together Friday night. They have a long way to go and a short time to get there.

Yeah, when I watched the footage, to an outsider DB looks like the typical DB team; big, strong, fast and poorly coached.  Lol.

    • Pickett is good, may have a Mr. Football like season if he’s used correctly. One of the best teams Marion has fielded in a while. I think they go 12-1 and loose to ER.  ER has better players at almost every position. If they play discipline this year, they win soundly. If they don’t though…Marion could sneak away with it.
    • I’m betting the house on the Indians. Pickett and Co will be the only team to challenge the Indians in the East. Huntingdon can in the West. I think Brooks goes 15-0 and has the first perfect season and state championship in ER history.
    • Sounds like a great opportunity has opened up for the football team.  With the head coach of the diamond rebels making it official and quitting this week, there should be some room for the gridiron guys to benefit. I assume the administration won’t continue paying six figures to two former coach that quit to continue teaching drivers Ed. Thats pretty good money that could be redirected toward the football program. Also, with the more recent policies of pushing kids to only play one sport, abolishing the baseball program altogether would help on Friday nights in the fall. There is some decent speed on that baseball team that should’ve been playing on Fridays IMO. I’m not sure if anybody would really miss that baseball program anyway with it being across town from the school. The liability of letting players actually use the facilities could also be mitigated with closing the program. That liability seems to be a really big issue for 825. Anyway, it seems like a great opportunity is available.
    • Yeah, I read about their spring blue/gray scrimmage after I typed that.   Sounds like a real mess over there.  I just hate that for 'em.  Haw
    • Maybe OR will be, but Farragut, nah, I don’t think anybody realizes how much of a bad situation that program is in currently. I’m sure they will build out of it, but the next 3 to 4 years are going to be a long climb up.
