So sequoyah hired last year’s middle school coach from concord Christian instead of William Blount high schools head coach? 

If I were Shad and my luck was that bad I would go down to the Dollar General and pick up a Pregnancy Test and take a whizz on it and maybe it could be the new beginning where his luck turns around.

I would like to take this moment and thank the William Blount football program for being so inept that their most talented and capable players are willing to jump ship. The two that moved to the Greenback community are outstanding young men and athletes, and they are wonderful additions to our team. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

Sincerely, Blackhelmet

I do realize that may have been a pizz poor example of articulating my point but this actually goes for all schools. Every team has turned their kids into door to door salesmen trying to raise money and some kids simply can't play because the family may not have the extra funds laying around in a cookie jar to buy into things other kids born with a silver spoon in their mouth can. I hear lots of parents tell me the cost involved is never ending and may be one reason some kids can't play.

So what is the solution to the rising cost of participation?

    • Understand the young thing.  I was one of those.  Barely 17 when I graduated from high school and started college.  But redshirting for athletic purposes isn't doing them any favors, in my opinion.  Life isn't always going to be fair.

    • The Girls Basketball team I am a part of played for a gold ball this season. One of the biggest differences in the sports is that there is no field prep/maintenance in basketball.   Our baseball is successful and play 30 games in the regular season as well. All of the teams dedicate A LOT of time in preparing for their next opponent. 
    • Im pretty excited about the new rules that NFHS voted to adopt. Does anyone know if this will take place in Tennessee starting this year? I think I heard/read somewhere that the TSSAA bi-laws say they have to mirror what the NFHS does, and when the NFHS offered the current weight classes as options, TSSAA didn’t adopt them until NFHS made them official. Did NFHS make these changes official starting next season or will it be similar to the weight classes where TSSAA doesn’t change what they are doing until it is  an officially official part of the NFHS rule book? It’ll be interesting to see if it is rolled out for the new TSSAA Middle School season and I saw a post where the youth wrestling in TN was going to vote on adopting it as well.  I’ll pray for all the youth coaches that will have to shoulder the confusion from all those crazy #### parents who already think they know the rules more than everyone else  . Imagine the first time their kid is taken down and a 3 goes up on the scoreboard or their kid gets pinned with only one point of contact in the cylinder. Their heads might explode. i kid, I kid. Sort of. I’m surprised ride time was brought down with all the other changes. I know some argue that it promotes stalling on top, but its been an official scoring method in college forever, so I figure it must be doing something right. Do any of you think that’ll ever be implemented?
