Yeah, sorry they don't have a recycled beer can built stadium. Anybody who actually is informed knows Gallatin has great facilities. Weightroom is large and top quality for any high school. An actual indoor dedicated practice facility. No, not your basketball gym floor. Two over full sized practice fields. Stadium is old, yes. But that is what your are supposed to like about it. Who else can say their football team has been playing on the same field for over 100 years? Has more sitting room than most any high school stadium statewide. What looks like a "packed crowd" at a lot of stadiums will appear like a half full crowd at their stadium.

I don't think anyone wants to say they have been playing at the same stadium for 100 years. We have gone from talking about Gallatin 40 years ago to now a 100 years. You are a special breed my friend. Im sure next you are brag about having your 1919 Ford Model T. "She don't run anymore but she is a classic." Kinda describes Gallatin Football don't ya think?

Bruce you are the kind of guy that would probably like Gallatin's stadium then. Its nothing like the Creek Bank but it has that old rusted vintage feel. Gonna need some of those Miller High Life's with you though.

You are special, just not a breed. And yeah, people definitely want to be able to say they have been on the same field for that amount of time. It is supposed to be cool aspect of it. How old are you again? Go tell Tennessee that Neyland Stadium is no good because of how long they have been playing there since 1921. Go tell The USC Trojans their stadium is no good because it was built in 1923. How about Wisconsin's Stadium built in 1917? Or Ole Miss from 1915? Or how about the Rose Bowl built in 1922 that holds College Football Playoff games? Michigan Big House was built in 1927. Tear them down though, right? And yeah, your classic car argument is terrible. Classics are going up in value every day. New cars drop significantly every day. 

Have a good day peanut brain.

As a Die Hard Vol Fan...I appreciate Neyland. But it, the Coliseum, Camp Randall, and the Rose Bowl are complete dumps. Ole Miss is too small. The Big House is almost underground. These places you mentioned are also irrelevant in CFB today because theyve stayed in their "Classic Car" Era. UT will rise again though!

Dumps? You have lost your mind. They are the most well-known stadiums IN COLLEGE FOOTBALL! What do you mean they're irrelevant? Big House and Neyland Stadium are known amongst the most elite stadiums in the country, college or pro.

Too bad "elite" stadiums don't create "elite" teams or win championships as you have just provided with a cornucopia of examples. Those stadiums you mentioned....they also try and update them from time to time unlike the wave yard. You can put lipstick on a pig but the end of the day it is still a pig.

Ever been to 'The Pit' at Lincoln County?  How about Oak Ridge's field?  While both are old they give you a special feeling just being there.  Gallatin is the same.  It is called TRADITION!

Oh boy don't get these Gallatinites started on tradition. They may get that "special feeling" in other places that are not coachT message board appropriate.

Yeah, says the anonymous small boy football troll.

    • “facts” or better yet ‘opinions’ had been up for weeks/months. that’s not why the thread was deleted. get over yourself. 
    • Im pretty excited about the new rules that NFHS voted to adopt. Does anyone know if this will take place in Tennessee starting this year? I think I heard/read somewhere that the TSSAA bi-laws say the have to mirror what the NFHS does, and when the NFHS offered the current weight classes as options, TSSAA didn’t adopt them until NFHS made them official. Did NFHS make these changes official starting next season or will it be similar to the weight classes where TSSAA doesn’t change what they are doing until it is  an officially official part of the NFHS rule book? It’ll be interesting to see if it is rolled out for the new TSSAA Middle School season and I saw a post where the youth wrestling in TN was going to vote on adopting it as well.  I’ll pray for all the youth coaches that will have to shoulder the confusion from all those crazy #### parents who already think they know the rules more than everyone else  . Imagine the first time their kid is taken down and a 3 goes up on the scoreboard or their kid gets pinned with only one point of contact in the cylinder. Their heads might explode. i kid, I kid. Sort of. I’m surprised ride time was brought down with all the other changes. I know some argue that it promotes stalling on top, but its been an official scoring method in college forever, so I figure it must be doing something right. Do any of you think that’ll ever be implemented? 
    • Crazy how the thread just gets deleted when facts come out.
    • I understand I guess it depends on the school you are with and the time you want to put in.  It’s evident of the schools that don’t put in as much times.  I would say basketball players put in as much time as any sport in our school system and this is coming from a football town.  Bball is a longer season than other sports.
    • 7 Pages of complaining because the lacrosse team put removable lines on the field so that they could practice/play lacrosse  Y'all boys are bored huh lol
