So they would have over 2,100 students?

Last time I checked Alcoa was around 660 students. but if we want to round it off, that's cool. Some 6A schools have over 2000. But my point is even  if they have only an additional 1000 students to be added to the school, that might make a difference. Surely out of 1000 extra students they could find some help to win a couple of close games.

No disrespect to Maryville at all, since several of those years an argument could be made for Maryville being the at the top of the nation's elite.

For Alcoa( a 3A school) to be the only school to beat Maryville at home over the last 10 years, I think, says all we need to know about the elite dominant status of both schools.

I'll go ahead and make everyone unhappy after my dark knight side has almost started another mythical game or league.So.Lets just say for " whatever reason",Alcoa and Maryville combined to make both schools  part of one monster 6A school.Now ,can you imagine the best from both those schools along with the very best staff and oh yes a great weight program .I've seen some great Maryville and Alcoa teams that would have been nearly unbeatable with a few players from the other school and I'm talking against the best anywhere in the nation.

I agree, it will not be easy, but 4-6 is just unfathomable.   As Red Rebels has pointed out above, DB has never had back to back losing seasons, so while the statistical probability is certainly not zero it has to be extremely close that the Tribe goes no less than 5-5.    DB lost a lot of seniors, true, but all schools lose a class of seniors each year.   As they say, we will just have to line it up, kick it off and see what happens.    Can't wait for HS football to begin

I could see anywhere from 3-7 to 5-5. They lost arguably the region's best RB and several other really productive players. There's not a lot in the pipeline either, as both middle schools have really struggled.

3-7 would be unthinkable, let's go with 5-5, but I think it will be better than that.

5-5 is being pretty optimistic, and after this year I'm afraid it's really going to start sliding downhill. 

Just saw where Hardin Valley lost their head coach, so that would certainly slide HVA over towards the win column for DB.    6-4 maybe??

Hardin Valley put a 2nd half beat down on D-B last year to win going away. I'd guess that it may depend more on what Hardin Valley has returning than anything, unless they make a really bad coaching hire. I'm still going with anywhere from 3-7 to 5-5.

    • Couple of thoughts: 1.  I just don't understand all the intricacies in TSSAA transfer rules anymore.    William Blount had a kid that played the final part of the basketball season with them this year,  that played at Hardin Valley last year, and played football for Bearden this year.  I say that to say, I know the coaches and the AD and the Principal at WB and I will never believe they would do something they knew was wrong.  They are men of character.  I BELIEVE the same thing about the coaches and administration at Maryville.  Call me gullible, but these are men and women of integrity in my experiences with them. 2.  Much like the transfer of the Clemmer kid a couple of years ago, with Smith, the football team is getting a huge boost, but the impact on the basketball team will be just as great or maybe even greater.  With Smith playing post, it frees the Sigmund kid who will be coming back from injury, to play more with his face to the basket.  The Rebels basketball squad in my mind, will be "the program" in East Tennessee next year.
    • Could not agree more. After this year, McKenzie's new coach will have their work cut out for them. Staying in 1A would definitely be a huge plus. Most years there is not much difference in the top 5- 1A and 2A teams across the state, but after the top 5 or so there is normally a huge drop off for 1A. Regular season region play is a lot easier for 1A in West TN  right now.
    • Word is Jason Maxwell will be new AD - he is currently head baseball coach. Also heard Roc might be headed to Pope as an assistant coach.
    • you must not know how tssaa operates lol 
    • I agree. A lot more people are starting to see what is really going on around here and how a certain few board members are abusing their power. Eyes are starting to open.
