Doesn't look like anyone is ready to talk about it. Let it rest.

I would guess that in 5A on this side of the state it is pretty much always going to be Oak Ridge, Fulton, Catholic and Knox Central.

Catholic no longer allowed to play in 5A. They are now in the division two arena.

Oh yeah, that is a great point.     So it's going to always be OR, KC or Fulton.

Aside from that, lots of holes to fill on both sides of the ball but heard that the rising JR class is loaded and the rising Sr class has several key players returning. I’m going to go out on a limb here and say the entire offensive strategy will change with Gibbons at the helm. The defensive side will remain comparable to last year though I’d expect to see more corner blitzes. They have a few sophomores with great speed that just didn’t see a lot of playing time this season.

Kendall Jackson and Jaquez Johnson will be a few of the studs next few years. There are always a few who surprise us also. Also Blazer, don't forget Powell. They will be in that mix of teams too.

    • Agree. The man literally sacrificed time, moments, memories you can't get back with his own family for every single athlete at that school. (and many others) To those that continue to be negative about him and continue to bring him up; He's been loyal, hardworking and just his entire coaching career. Ask anyone that actually has a leg to stand on in regard to Coach.
    • Egotistical? That's a new one.  It's funny, I'm friends with two of the younger coaches that he "ran off" as you say. In fact, he helped them find jobs, encouraged them to do what was best for their growing families, provided advice, support and still does to this day.

    • Track has always been big at OR. Ran off about 7 straight titles in the 60s. Your hate for Gaddis runs deep, huh? What did he ever do to you, to make you disdain him that much? You can’t seem to stop talking about the guy. He’s living rent free in your head. Might wanna get that checked out, you don’t wanna go to the grave with that on your heart.
    • This late in the year, you’d have to think they’d go with an Asst. on staff, right? I’m pretty new to the area so still learning how folks do things around here…if Woods stays there to teach, it could be hard on a new guy/staff coming in…
