September 27 -- John Battle at Patrick Henry

October 4 -- Chilhowie at Virginia High

Wasn't sure where to post this since there are multiple classifications involved with the Tennessee schools.  TSSAA games are in bold.

It's not a major thing, but it's important to us who live here:

Powell is not "Knox" Powell.  Powell High is located in Powell, TN 37849, not in Knoxville.  

It's just plain Powell High School.  

I agree, but I think this started years ago when there was a Powell Valley High School up that way.

Sorry about that.  When they announced the games on their Facebook Live the other day, that's what they called it, so that's how I typed it.  I'm not familiar with any of the teams outside of upper east Tennessee, so I didn't know myself.

Silly ole me thought Knox Powell was in "Knox" County. :shock:

It is. It's a Knox County School. It always has been. Now some of the schools in Knox County used to be Knoxville City Schools, but Powell has always been in Knox County's System. Powell does have their own zip code though.

Not going to argue with you on this one.  

My son played football and baseball at Powell.  I did radio play by play for Powell football for 12 years.  Been in this community now for over 25 years.  Not once have I ever seen anything at Powell or heard anybody at Powell refer to the school as "Knox Powell".  It's Powell High School.  Period.  

It's funny that it's always outsiders who try to tell us what the name of the school in our community is.

I get what you're saying, but it's petty in my opinion. 

For years I've heard the following examples and never knew it was such an issue...

 

Knox Powell

Knox Carter

Memphis East

Chattanooga Howard

Maryville - Heritage

Murfreesboro Oakland

Clarksville Northwest

Kingsport Dobyns Bennett

Jackson Northside

 

I could go on and on, but really just don't see the big deal in Knox Powell.

    • 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.
