Well folks.... I'm ready for some football.  Definitely get there early or if you're in the area, stop by the high school during business hours to go ahead and buy your ticket.   I know the last time Milan played at Peabody, the game had started and there was still a line of folks wrapped around the back side of the home stands.  It was past the 50 yard line.  

No doubt with this being a Thursday game, plenty of area schools will be in attendance in addition to the hoards of Peabody and Milan folks.   I've even heard mention that those Trousdale County boys are piling onto a bus to make a special trip to see this game.     That would be pretty cool, and I'd surely welcome them!   

This is going to be a close game.  I'll make my prediction about 9pm on Friday.  lol

Do you know the capacity of the stands?

I’m not sure exactly, but it will be standing room only....  and not just shoulder to shoulder.  

Try not to drink too much water Friday.  Lol.  It will be hard to get to the restroom through the people.  

This game will probably be a replica of Milan @ Peabody in 2012. First game of the year for Peabody under new head coach Joe Gaddis. Milan went on to win by 1 point in OT that night but Peabody gained tremendous respect from the Milan faithful after that game. People were standing 3-4 rows deep along the fences across that stadium. I don’t think everyone made it into the stadium until halfway through the 2nd quarter. Peabody has a big & open facility so you know there is a crap ton of people if that place gets filled up.

The Milan game in 2017 and the GC game in 2018 saw people standing several people deep.  I’ve seen the numbers for those games.  I’ll try and find it.

    • I don't know what's going on in the town of McMinnville, but I've read this and it's disturbing.  I'm a "player" person, and I want what's best for the player. If a player gets cut off the team because she said the "F word" then good grief. I mean, come on guys. I wish there was a way for the player to transfer to a different program and just play ball. There are a lot of athletes that are stuck because they're in crappy situations regarding their team/coach. This is player just happens to be one them.
    • Won't happen. College coaches will back the coach every time and it cost this young lady her senior season. Looks like the player may be right on this one. School let her  go after one season. This stuff happens more than you think. 
    • “No college is going to offer a scholarship to a player that is kicked off of the team.” For language? I’m not seeing that as a dealbreaker. 
    • Why did the coach get rehired after she was let go as an assistant by the former Warren County coach and the current AD?? Is that accurate?? I am very familiar with situations like this. Suprised lawsuits haven't happend before. If the coach unfairly let the player go, I think she has a shot because it cost her a scholarship. No college is going to offer a scholarship to a player that is kicked off of the team. Not going to happen. There are bad hires like this a bunch and kids are treated unfairly by coaches that can't coach a lick and have super long ropes somehow. Amazing how some of these coaches get hired and keep their job. 
    • I am going to assume you are not a lawyer, and most reasonable lawyers would not say the lawsuit has a zero percent chance in court. I agree with you that a coach has the ability to dismiss anyone from a team. However, Ms. Winfree was never presented with the opportunity to present her witnesses and have them tell the coaches and administrators what they heard. A lawyer could better explain the lawsuit and the grounds to you. Before you start making wild assumptions about the lawsuit, would it be too much to ask that you do a little legal research first? The lawsuit is dealing with due process, loss of property, and defamation.   You can read the lawsuit here: https://bdnewsletter.files.wordpress.com/2024/04/doc-1-complaint-filed-4-18-2024.pdf
