Powell visits Clinton for our first home game of the year.  Clinton will be without the services of one of our best players, so someone else will need to step up.

I would love to see Clinton come out and play with some heart and determination and give Powell all they want and more. 

Powell is my surprise team of the year. I believe Powell has a better than average defense and a very good offense. 

I'm going with Powell in this one.   

Powell 38  Clinton 14

Hope Clinton proves me wrong! Go Dragons!!

Clinton showed a lot of improvement against AC, and I think this game could be closer than some think, for 3 quarters or so. In the end, Powell probably has too much on both sides of the ball. Dragon, you're prediction looks spot on.

I worried last week's game against Karns would be a bit of a let down for the Panthers, and for one half, I was right. Powell's defense struggled early, but they really played well after halftime. Offensively, Powell clicked on all cylinders. They never punted, and only 3 drives results in zero points (INT, fumble at the goal line, took a knee on the final 2 plays at the goal line).

Thomas Harper for Karns is going to give alot of teams trouble this year, but I noticed Powell finally put a safety over the top and shut him down pretty much. 

We're still struggling on defense stopping the pass, it's no secret. I hope we can true that up sooner rather than later.

I know this will be a very physical and hard hitting game. I just hope both teams come out injury free.

Yay a home game. Powell should win comfortably but I think Clinton could give em a game for a bit. I'm interested to see who the interim will be (assuming McKamey's suspension appeal gets denied) and how that will change things on offense, if it will at all.

Kinda like how I do on NCAA 2017....Hail Marry every play on offense and 4-4 all out blitz every play on defense. 

See....coaching ain't that hard.

      Clinton Problems

      From my understanding, Jay Graham pretty much took over HC responsibilities in that game, so you can thank him. Cute Andy didn’t need help, though. Cute Andy could’ve beaten us without any assistant coaches.

      Head Coaching Jobs in West TN

      By warmachine7954 · Posted

      Tax payer dollars are paid for certified teachers to "teach" and then coach. The primary job is to teach.  There are some district that ay awesome supplements and others that don't. Dyersburg and Dyer County are pretty close if I remember correctly. I would imagine that Football and basketball are above $10,000 now.  I've heard that Milan is $20,000 for boys basketball. I would imagine that football is more than that in Milan.  Collierville has camps that coaches get paid extra for. 3 camps a year, 100 kids a camp, $30,000 right there.  There are places like Memphis-Shelby County schools where the supplements are garbage even for the head coaches. I made less than $3,000 as the head assistant at Germantown in 2015 when we were 26-4 and one of the best teams in the Southeast. As a head middle school coach next year I will make between $4-5,000 at a municipal in Shelby County.  Coaches should be compensated for the jobs that are required but lets keep in mind that they are educators first.  It's pretty frustrating to other teachers that work their tale off teaching 6-7 classes a day to watch someone roam campus, not teach (or have very minimal responsibilities), and get paid the same (more with supplements) as a person who has the some years of experience or sometimes less.

      This will get coaches leaving the profession very quickly if this kid wins this case. This is absurd...
