I imagine it’s about the same. It’s a ways from the field but when we played them there during regular season there was a breeze and the field smelled bad 

Go watch a game at Dresden :oops: it reeks there

The stench at Huntingdung games is far worse. The cheerleaders never bathe and they dried tobacco juice in their beards.....

I thought they made the cheerleaders shave. Maybe it was just for the playoffs. Anyway ole CB10 picked up a few over there last year. He showed them his corn dog and they grabbed up a bottle of mustard and followed him home.

No place like the Creekbank in Trousdale except when it floods!

Worst field is Pickett County. Poor guys have to play on a baseball field. There are no real bleachers on the visitors side.  There are no lights at one end of the field. Fans from there sit up on the hill at the school and watch instead of paying to come in! I admire the players who stick it out all season. 

 

We went there for a game a few years ago, we arrive, and the Coach walks up to us, as always we introduce ourselves and ask where will we be setting up? His response has yet to be beat, "I guess y'all can stand on the first base dugout." Lol needless to say we called the game from about 50-75 yards away in the baseball announcing booth with speakers blasting in the same room.

The nicest stadiums/venues i've been to: Oneida, South Pitt, Hampton, Huntingdon. The nicest we have played on was Knox Grace Christian Academy absolutely gorgeous. The worst for me would be Pickett (horrible playing conditions), Marion County (fans harassing players as their seasons/careers end), and last was the old Watertown stadium (horrible bow in midfield, new one is much improved, stands and look one of best around but playing surface is not as nice as some say).

Old Watertown was very unsafe for players.

Our (Greenback) field grass rivals anyone thats not plastic.

SP has a awesome place for football with nice facilities.

Huntingdon on film looks like a college field.

Trousdale is up there also.

Oneida my second favorite place to watch a game other than GB!

Worst-Hancock their first year was the worst i had ever seen dry it may be better now.

Cloudland is the worst i have seen in the last 5 years HANDS DOWN.When its wet down all night before your game its even worse!

Sunbright is rough

Wartburg i agree with helmet they let the goats eat it because they dont have a mower! 

 

Oneida is getting some renovations before this upcoming season. All new lights have been put up and a new scoreboard is going up in the opposite end of the field.

Jasper fans (Marion County) were rocking the Ambulance just before half time when Eddie Moore left the game with an I.V. just before halftime.  That was his junior year.  They paid for that with interest the next year (1998).  Lets just say he ran over some guys on offense and tackled some people on defense.

    • Lee would have been a good choice, also.  I'm sure Benny was involved with the decision.  
    • Personally I was pulling for Lee Hammonds to get another shot. He’s earned it! 
    • Tyler Williams was the logical choice to be named head football. He served as the Highlanders’ strength coach and offensive coordinator.
    • I went to practice yesterday and liked what I saw for the most part. Derek and crew have done a good job during the off-season. I was very impressed with the size of some of those boys on the offensive line. My only regret was one of the boys I was really pulling for to have a good year was dismissed from the team. I have to applaud the coaches for setting examples for the others, no one is bigger than the team. One other thing, I was hoping with that big rain we got this week some of that  yellow paint would dissolve but it didn't.  
    • Couple of thoughts: 1.  I just don't understand all the intricacies in TSSAA transfer rules anymore.    William Blount had a kid that played the final part of the basketball season with them this year,  that played at Hardin Valley last year, and played football for Bearden this year.  I say that to say, I know the coaches and the AD and the Principal at WB and I will never believe they would do something they knew was wrong.  They are men of character.  I BELIEVE the same thing about the coaches and administration at Maryville.  Call me gullible, but these are men and women of integrity in my experiences with them. 2.  Much like the transfer of the Clemmer kid a couple of years ago, with Smith, the football team is getting a huge boost, but the impact on the basketball team will be just as great or maybe even greater.  With Smith playing post, it frees the Sigmund kid who will be coming back from injury, to play more with his face to the basket.  The Rebels basketball squad in my mind, will be "the program" in East Tennessee next year.
