Blaze45 Posted October 15, 2018 Report Share Posted October 15, 2018 Lookslike Blackman is taking on more homework in building a tougher resume. 2019 season will feature, Alcoa, Mt Juliet and Ravenwood and an undetermined 4th non-conference team to round out the schedule. For those folks saying Mt Juliet plays asoft schedule I believe this will be a better Non conference game for both of us as we prepare for possible playoff games later in the season. Not to mention taking on a very talented and loaded Alcoa. Now if we could only add Maryville or Hoover we would have one of if not the toughest Non-conference schedule of anyone in the region 3-6a. https://www.dnj.com/story/sports/high-school/2018/10/15/high-school-football-blackman-alcoa-play-series-2019-20/1644801002/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know that we have the size, talent or coaching to play with them next year, but I do know IRON SHARPENS IRON. The only way Blackman will ever be on the level of Maryville,s Hoovers. Alcoa's and even Oakland year in and year out is to play quality opponents. I believe that great competition helps to set the std and bar for what you have to do to get there. Playing great competition once or twice a year gets you a first or second round ticket to watch the playoffs from the bleachers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BarneySox2007 Posted October 15, 2018 Report Share Posted October 15, 2018 Well this might be a very interesting game. Glad to see Alcoa step up to the plate and sign this one up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Traveling west doesn't bother me, swing by TTU and get some Ralph's donuts for the ride. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now if only Oak Ridge would answer the call... It was not Alcoa looking , it was actually Blackman looking to fill some slots. Florence Alabama decided to drop coming to Blackman which left and open week one. Just so happened that Alcoa was open as well. It didn't hurt that current Blackman Kit Hartsfield also played for Rankin state Championship squad.
