Thanks lead. Big win for MC last night in OT. Congrats 

No problem man. Yes it was. MC is the walking wounded right now. I think we had about 10 players out due to injury. Gutsy play call to go for 2 and the win.

I first posted on a CoachT Message Board back in the 1990s when it was dedicated to the recent Class AAA Girls Basketball Champions Lawrence County team. They had just beat my favorite school OAK RIDGE. CoachT evolved over the years into a site for LCHS District, Girls AAU Basketball then what we know and love of CoachT.com today.

I think as the site grew a guy from Oliver Springs played a big role in helping CoachT go where no high school message board had gone before.

It is weird this tread about old time posters appread when it did. I decided to stop posting about a month ago after over 20 + years because I was posting too much after drinking and was afraid I was making Oak Ridge look bad. I have been happy not posting but I HAVE to check the Boards four or five times a day. I just love all the information CoachT posters provide. You all are really just people who love high school sports and are not afraid to show it. I admire you all.

Oak Ridge has had it share of trouble makers on our threads. Some have hated a certain OR coachs, some were fathers who tought their sons were done wrong and some where NOT Oak Ridge fans but pretended to be and constantly changed their user name.

The one poster that I hated the most was a guy back in the early 2000s that claimed to be a Jefferson County fan and posted about Oak Ridge. I think he came back later as a Farragut fan.  He was scum.

The thing I will take from my time on CoachT is how I have been changed by the people here. I used to HATE Clinton and Maryville fans but now respect their opinions. I still hate FarragutLESS though lol.

For those few people on CoachT who even knew I posted on here for many years, this is a fitting final post. IT IS LONG AND RAMBLES. I never could master the ability to say my thoughts in few words.

Take care all and thank you Coach Thompson. As always RWR - Roll Wildcats Roll. Oak Ridge is the BEST yes yes the BEST.

I joined the CoachT Boards in 2003 as a Camden Central fan/teacher. I usually post in 2A and 3A football on the West TN teams. I've been a teacher at Riverside since 2013. I like high school football and I have several friends in coaching and broadcasting - people I've taught with in the past, gone to college with, etc. When my teams get eliminated in the playoffs, I go to other games. I get mad when people get on and post nasty things anonymously. I think, one's email at the least, should be readily identifiable; or better yet, have to show one's real name.

I started posting in 07 but got off awhile and had to change my name and password when I came back in 09. Used to love going at it back then with Guru, Shep, Moto and the Jo Byrns faithful.  Later it was always fun with the NCS bunch, now I'm more into the serious side and let the youngsters do the fighting but things have sure changed!

    • This whole situation is bonkers. You don’t just kick your star player off the team just because you heard them say the F word; the coach definitely had something against the player, or somebody definitely did. Also, nobody has brought up the idea that the school blackmailed the college to get the college to withdraw the scholarship offer, not to mention that the coach who kicked her off is no longer even with the program; they were fired. I think this is a pretty easy lawsuit. I don’t know if she should deserve that much money, but I think she should get enough money for a full-ride scholarship if she cannot get one after this situation.
    • Oh yeah, I’m sure you are different people just always on the same thread for some reason, always agreeing with each other, perhaps just a bunch of dorks who would like to ###### and moan about high school football coaches do a lot of other students, so you make a football team and get a yell at them. When they do something wrong, but I’m sure you don’t like that, do you?   and I’m sure I’m aware of where you get information. A teacher who was on the coaching staff but was fired after the new coaching and staff came in and realized he actually had to start taking his assistant job a little bit more seriously than just wanting to make a little extra cash on the side, hardly even showing up to most practices, should’ve left with his buddy to go to Farragut. I’m sure he could get him a defensive coaching job, but I doubt he will be there in three years. Looking at the way Farragut is currently going.
    • It may be hard to believe but there’s more people than me that think you guys are a bunch of losers.    I’m sure the coaching staff, yourself included, cursed at a bunch of high school students. Nobody could name more than 3 coaches on staff due to the constant turnover. 
    • That's complete BS.  Nobody at ACHS has access to CHS student records unless a transfer is made from CHS to ACHS.  
    • Trez's last scandal has died down, so I guess this is there opportunity to be the best 4A team playing in 2A a la Sissy MTN.  At least they won't be in a Z-district with 1a teams in the regular season.
