That's completely different money. But I'm glad this coach got vindicated. Sorry state of affairs in sports in Oak Ridge. Too many coaches quitting.    

What needs to happen is the superintendent should have to pay whatever the jury awarded because he was an idiot.  He may not have the money but you could sure garnish his wages and make him feel the pain.  If the courts would start doing this and stop allowing these administrators  to hide behind the county governments much of this foolishness would stop.

On a positive note "The Ship" now has 35 yards of dark and light green strips each 5 yards wide on it. So it's happening ..... artificial turf! 

Go to the Oak Ridge Wildcat Football Facebook page to see a bird's eye view of how the field looked like today. Still need numbers and end zone lettering. Watch with the sound up so you can hear the fight song.

According to     oakridgefootball.net    Oak Ridge and Maryville will scrimmage August 9 @ Blankenship Field. The Wildcats also scrimmage William Blount on August 2 @ WBHS. Then OR takes on Alcoa, Heritage and the Blount County All Star Cheerleaders to wrap up the Blount County Preseason Tour of Champions. Okay, I made some of that up but which is real and which is phony bologna.

Clemson news...You Knoxville area fans probably already know but former Knox. Catholic star WR Amari Rodgers hurt his ACL on Tuesday. it is weird because I pray a lot that Tee Higgins stays healthy.

You get to come play on WB's natural surface. Best grass in the area.

Oak Ridge used to be the dominant sports program in the area and one of the pre-eminent programs in the state, but not any more. It’s been a while since OR won anything.

    • I assume with the hiring situation they are in, and pretty much everyone is in for that matter, he will call the defense. I think he brought someone in to do the offense. I have heard that it is a Skelton crew over there at the moment. It's just so difficult to hire coaches for anyone really. I hope he can get some guys in there.

    • Finally he has returned. Maybe he can tell us if it was one of the new players Keith brought in
    • I heard it was a Loudon County school. I don't think LC will be hurting. They are about to build an indoor facility that will put Clinton's to shame
    • the news story said that the contract between the operator of the school and the school board was expiring and was not going to be renewed.  The news story also reported that the students would be going to Trezevant as that is the closest Shelby county school.
