Guys yes they’ve made changes imo big changes but doesn’t mean anything to me. We will just have to see how it goes.. imo I can hearing it I think it sounds good so I’m hoping it is good.. we do have two issues that I don’t want to put out there which is a bummer.... we will see Friday 

I'm intrigued by your post. You're more positive than normal and that has aroused my curiosity. I haven't been able to see any practice this week so I have no idea what changes have been made. I also don't know about the two issues you mention although I can probably guess one of them, which isn't good. I'm looking forward to see how we OR plays.

That's great news....was there any size or speed on the field for OR?

Jayden Williams, freshman, Reining 200 meter Middle School Champion. Took first place at 2019 Middle School State Meet with a time of 23.66 seconds.

Coach Gaddis also pointed out several other freshmen players who can fly.

However,   Joe did say size wise the 9th graders are typical OR linemen - smal

Did he say he was going to blend in the new freshman speedster? Now that would be something special.

No, I didn't hear him say that. He's pretty small and maybe he's not quite ready for Friday nights yet. He did say that he wasn't going to blame his players for the poor offensive performance but that he would take the blame himself. That's no great consolation but how many times do you hear a coach say that? The players should appreciate that and I hope the offense is much better this week. He did say that he thought DB was better than Hardin Valley. That's a concern.

DB is huge. Always been a big team. Hoping the O line gives the QB more time to get the ball off...hoping that the OC makes adjustments or resigns. Will be listening!! RWR!

I've decided to go ahead and make the trip. I love the atmosphere up there, I love the stadium, I love the restaurants, and I love the Wildcats, and I think they need us (fans). It's a beautiful day and I can't think of anything better to do. I don't like our chances but I hope I'll be surprised.

Way to go bonkers! It has always been said the best and loudest Wildcat fans are the ones who go to the Away games. Great to see you keeping that tradition alive. RWR!

    • 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.
