No losers tonight, both teams gave us one of the best high school games that have ever been on Thursday Night TV. Sure there were mistakes made but these are two teams that have had their share of struggles this year. 

Easy for you to say. WB got embarrassed on tv. How on Earth do you lose that game? Fall forward a yard and the game is over. Coaching malpractice!

One of the problems with WB is confidence. Our guys dont believe in themselves. Well, tonight we got irrefutable evidence that the lack of belief comes from the coaching staff. As a coach, you have to have confidence in your team to pick up a yard. If you dont think you can do that then you need to stay at home.

You could give William Blount the same players as Alcoa or Maryville and they might I meant might win 2 games

No they didn't. I bet no one that watched the game has ever seen a 51 yard field goal made in high school. I'll tell you something else also and it's called what goes around comes back around. There was a touchdown that WB scored with twelve players on the field and got away with it and also an obvious pass interference against a Sevier receiver in the end zone when he got hurt. My gut said something will come back around to even those mistakes up which it did in the end.  Like I said earlier it was a great game.

Barney,

Things like that happen in every ballgame. The difference is most teams win games when they get those lucky breaks. Not WB. We find new ways to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory. 4th and 1 with a 9-point lead and good field position and you take a delay of game penalty and punt it away instead of falling forward a yard and icing the dam game. That is stupid. That's all there is to it. It doesn't matter that it was a good game. It doesn't matter that people like Mark Packer were impressed by our kicker. That's all meaningless. What matters is we are 2-4 when we should be 3-3 right now. The kids were devastated after that loss tonight. 

It's really easy for a Maryville fan to have a positive worldview. Everything has gone your way the past two decades. Meanwhile, I've been invested in a losing program for over 10 years now. So I apologize if I'm not thrilled with the moral victories.

91 i have had my say a few times at WBs expense but after reading the paper this morning i feel sorry for the kids and fans.I go to bed early so i cant see the games BUT i 100% figured to see a win last night.You all need a change and its more than evident now.Good luck to you and your boys.More than enough time to at least show progress!

4th and two in the first half. Throw it in the end zone into double coverage. Incomplete. FG there wins game.

Yep. And there are lots of plays in a game that can determine the outcome-not just one. But I have to say that fake xtra point at the start of overtime was a biggie when you have the best kicker in the area. #riverboatgambler #takethemoralvictory

    • The winds of change are blowing in Hartsville.     Will be an interesting follow.    Would go back to the 90s and turn black the clock!
    • Did he promise you a coordinator job or something if he ever got a head coaching job? He resigned? He was at the top of the dugout last night calling plays. I wonder if those 30+ parents would let him give their kids a ride. by the way the board meeting was last night and it was not mentioned. must have been at the work session earlier this week which is not public. must be trying to keep it quiet.  Since you know so much, how much is Robbie Atwood willing to pay Adam Cothron?  Didn't you slander Eden earlier on here? You also didn't know he was a faculty coach again so how much do you really know? Some people outside this county baffle me with their need to slander others.    
    • 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.
