Does Woodi play one side of the D or does he follow the opposing team's stud regardless of what side the receiver lines up on? Either way, Woodi might see some action come his way because if Woodi is defending Keveon one on one in man coverage ... Balls will be thrown to Keveon. Woodi is going to Oaklahoma and Keveon is going to S. Carolina. SEC against the Big 12. How big is Woodi?

Oakland has several defensive packages, I assume, because he lines up all over the place, depending on what they call. He is 6'1" or so. Probably taller, but I'm guessing. Probably weighs 180. Again, just guesses here. He is long and really athletic.

Yea in our era yes lol but you can’t even touch a receiver now a Days . Do I feel he got Laid out! Yes indeed! Football is not the same anymore... they protect the  offensive players but there is not a single rule in playing to protect a defense player.  And it’s sad

There is definitely a rule against crack back and peel back blocking, too. Also taking the physicality out of football.

CONGRATS TO OAKLAND AND DA HAVEN ON YOUR TRIP TO COOKEVILLE. THIS ONE IS A HARD ONE TO PICK. I SAW TEXTBOOK TACKLING FROM OAKLAND THAT I HAVENT SEEN SINCE 2008. DA HAVEN IS LOADED BUT COMES OUT SLOW AT TIMES BUT WILL IMPOSE THEIR WILL ON THE OPPONENT AT ANY GIVEN TIME BUT CAN'T BE THE COMEBACK KIDS IN THIS MATCHUP IF THEY EXPECT TO WIN. COACHING IMO IS EVEN ITS ALL ABOUT WHO IMPOSES THEIR WILL AND I HAVE SEEN BOTH DO IT IN DOMINANT FASHION. PA CAN'T RIDE WITH OAKLAND BECAUSE OF 2008 SO IM ROLLING WITH DEM TIGERS FROM MEMPHIS!

We have our share of athletes, but I have no idea who 'eers' even is! He keeps getting on here saying that we are being 'modest', but I honestly think that this should be a great game. You guys look loaded. So are we. We have our share of 'studs', (the entire defensive line and their backups are nasty (South Carolina commit and several FCS offered players), the secondary is incredibly big and athletic (Oklahoma commit and several Power 5 offered players), all of the backs run hard and can take it to the house at any time (an Illinois State commit with others to follow for some of the other backs), the quarterback has several NAIA/Division 3 offers, the o-line is big and nasty)but that's not what makes this team go. They are physical, fast, and hungry. They play for each other and couldn't care less about who does what, as long as we win. I personally witnessed 100 yard rushing games by more running backs than just Xavier Myers. The team didn't care who toted the rock. I also saw several games where we threw the ball for more yards than we ran it. Again, the team didn't care how we scored. Our fullback, wingbacks, quarterback, and kicker/punter have all been players of the week in the Rutherford County paper. What makes them great, in my humble opinion, is that they don't care who gets the carries, passes, catches, TDs, interceptions, sacks, tackles for loss, etc. They play for the man beside them and it's obvious from the stands. These guys, for the most part, have played together since 6th grade. I would suggest that is what makes them as good or better than the 2016 team.

KWC, that's as good as I can give you from my perspective.

    • He resigned smh, and have you ever heard of charged but not convicted. Some people in this county baffle me with their need to slander others. Have you asked any of the 30+ parents that signed a petition to get him reinstated at the board meeting this week how they feel about this? Just let it play out, at the end of the day the only people that will bring TC back are the ones that know what its about at its core.    People hate losing and they aren't used to it at TC. I for 1, and I'm sure others too, understand having a dip in talent and not being able to compete for a state title every year. But in the past, TC teams have outworked more talented teams, they didn't continuously lose the turnover battle, they didn't commit 8+ penalties in several games each season, and I believe several of the folks in town that want Blake out feel as if he is neglecting the history of the program. This is from a source that used to be extremely close to the program (not me lol), Blake gets out of school midday and the players show up and there is no practice plan or itinerary.  I also understand those that are on team Blake, when he has loads of talent, he wins. He does know football and he is a tremendous DC, and if the rumors are true then he will do great things. As for the board member issue, it is what it is, everyone that's true to the county know that and nothing has changed. I agree though that they should strive to make the facilities as good as we can. And as far as potential candidates, I agree there is very few options. West, Vetetoe (yes I know), and couple others that could have some interest. Whatever happens is massive for the program during a pivotal time before the next big wave of stars make their way through. 
    • McKenzie had no trouble with Huntingdon.  
    • Has BA landed any cornfed cowboys to block up front?
    • Yea I agree I will say tho I was a big “ v “ fan if an  opening ever did happen I think it would’ve been good to see him have a shot coming from a power house like Oakland. I’m sure he’s learned a lot from Kevin.  I bet he would bring a really good offense scheme IMO But after all this I just dunno anymore.  Whatever happens with the rumors an such if it did come to and opening I think this messes it all up.  The board members dreams are slowly slipping away now. I haven’t lived there for awhile I just hear what I hear, but my question is would there be any good potential candidates?? That’s why I don’t understand why people want b s out so bad who else could do any better ?? IMO there’s nothing attractive about it? As I stated earlier I went to the last game last year and taking a leak in a porta Potty is pretty sad and still nothing being done they say ..
