I think the unit will be pretty strong and had a some fight in em honestly.  They were all sitting together on the sidelines so theres gotta be some chemistry there. 5 returning starters is nothing to shake a stick at

Chemistry is a good thing and I hope you're right but five returning starters didn't seem to do much for OR tonight. They better get it together.

5star Preps per Gaddis: 

While Gaddis was hardly pleased with his team’s showing, he pointed out that Oak Ridge was blown out in similar fashion by Maryville a year ago in a preseason scrimmage.

“Last year it was practically the same thing,” said Gaddis.

“They were up 30-0 at halftime and 14 weeks later we were three points from (advancing to) the semifinals.

That give hope

I actually remember that and I'm sure Gaddis is wanting them to retain a little confidence in the wake of being demolished. But this beatdown felt a little different. This team isn't as good as last year's team, at least not yet. The secondary is awful and oline/dline just got annihilated.

Doesn't matter much. Just seems the Rebels like to talk a lot when putting a pounding on someone. But let the rolls Reverse, and its crickets 

Yeah, well, until we do something about that then I don't blame them one bit. I didn't see any smack talk though. Willie asked for updates....Well, he (and we) got 'em, and a lot of 'em at that. Lol

Well time will tell pretty soon. Not sure how good HVA is this year.

Hey SS, I'm concerned that Gaddis, who must be well over 60, had more energy that any player on the entire OR team. I'm serious, that really is a problem.

Your right again.  Secondary seemed like they had guys behind them all night especially past middle of field. Seems like the coaches on defense aren't to good right now and need to get it fixed pronto. After seeing gaddis fired up tonight I feel sorry for Karns!

    • Never in my life have I seen a team in a scrimmage against their own defense look so lost and confused. The defense didn’t look much better, the coaching staff can’t keep their anger together, not only with the players but also with their other coaches. I feel awful for those players. None of them look like they wanted or should’ve been out there, but for the grown men on the sidelines acting like fools, it's just embarrassing to the Farragut name and reputation. I now see why they chose not to live stream this on their YouTube channel.
    • We could sure use some math teachers country wide. Ever go into a store or restaurant and the bill comes to $9.97 and you give them a ten dollar bill and 2 pennies because you wanted a nickle back and then the meltdown starts and the next thing two more people have to come and help figure it out and the place comes to a complete halt. I see this everyday and it's a sad representation of all these schools allowing these kids out the door to get shortchanged the rest of their life. 
    • I like the Pirates chances. I’ll be there as soon as work allows.
    • Stars, I heard we were searching far and wide for some math teachers. Any chance their kids bench press or 40 times are getting checked? LOL I’ve heard good things from 825.  
    • I think it was expected. “Bad” luck I guess to get a couple difference maker QBs in the same class. I thought the decision was made a little early myself, but they were struggling offensively last year.  I assume the running quarterback alco had last year would be a senior this fall, and the transfer would start the following two years in addition to getting a ton of playing time this year. Maybe he waits two yrs, but I doubt it. The kid is good. So is the one who stayed.
