Came to our game at Lawrence County, game went without incident and on our way to buses started hollering rude, vulgar language. We get on buses and leave and they proceed in 2-3 cars of them to swerve in and out of our cars hanging out window giving the bird finger, cussing and get in front of buses and hit their brakes repeatedly. 2 ladies had to take the shoulder to keep from getting hit and cops were called and they were pulled over. And 3 players were suspended because of it, funny when a parent went to GCHS to complain the AD and assistant principal knew nothing about it. I’m sorry that GCHS principal had to deal with all that during her illness, she’s a fine lady. So I’m personally just glad our game is over, wished we would have won to feel less mad about the whole situation but it is what it is. I enjoy the rivalry part as much as anyone for 49 years now, but what happened last week took it to a dangerous level. I remember in school we stole banners and had tacky language between Marshall and Giles but there was a level of respect that’s just not there anymore, it makes me sad. But social media is probably to blame for most of that!

Yeah that’s uncalled for.Did the right thing by calling police.Yeah social media puts a different spin on things these days.I hate social media to a point.I miss the days where a rivalry was a friendly rivalry and the worst things we did was send black roses to the rivals school the week of the game.

Yes I agree with you, social media has totally changed the rivalry into a very ugly battle now and also along with a lack of parenting at home for some as well. See ya next year bobcat93!

Also I left out Giles players destroyed our visitors locker rooms last night, with fire extinguishers. Doesn’t change the outcome of our game but shows how unclassy  they can be, wonder how coach will handle that. They should be made to come clean it up, instead of us having too.

Wow. The school should send the Giles County School Board a bill for the clean up. That would put a stop to it in the future.

1st time watching the Tigers played this season and it seems that OC has a spell over Osteen. Marshall is the better team but good grief we were undisciplined. I was thinking we would win the region but no way we beat Nolensville now. Still think we are a quarterfinal team this year. 

Giles will be a tough out for whoever gets them as a 4 seed out of their region.

Naw the coachs should take the players back over to clean up and paint.

There doesn’t seem to be any discussion about MC players throwing bottles and stuff out of their bus at Giles county fans as they left the parking lot Friday night Love my tigers??? Are you going to be willing to suspend your players like OC and administration did? Plus the vulgar language and hand signs they used toward player parents standing as they left? Nor the mention that your number 3 wanted to fight long after the game was over. Let’s be balanced in our story.

I don’t condone any of that stuff and I can assure you it will be handled accordingly. But it seems to me that doesn’t justify a parent climbing into the bus wanting to fight kids either. But look all I’m saying is we need to get it back to a respectable level rivalry, I just don’t compare kids saying vulgar words ( which is unacceptable as well) to your kids trying to run us off the road and cause multiple wrecks and vandalizing school property! I’m not going to discuss anything else with you, both teams need to play ball and leave the rest alone! So I’m sorry I don’t feel at all “ balanced” in my storytelling! 2 wrongs don’t make a right, but y’all started it at Lawrence County and now it’s escalated to this mess!

For crying out loud you sound like one of your students.  "You started" sounds like a kid.  You are a teacher so please act like one.  Sounds like kids from both kids where wrong and unfortunately this seems to be the youth from all over now a days.   Not a fan of either coach but I don't think any of this is their fault

I’m not a teacher, and I don’t condone any of it but what you think about me I really could care less! I’m a grown adult that wanted to remind people our kids had left them alone until they “ started “ the trouble at Lawrence County. It’s exactly the youth of today all over I agree with that but I’m in no way affiliated with teachers, just a long time Tiger alumni and fan. I know our coaches are not happy about any of it, and it will be handled accordingly. So why don’t you worry about your team and not “start” anything else with me! I’ve dealt with you before in case you had forgotten. And no the coaches can’t be blamed from either team, you try to teach kids life lessons but unfortunately sometimes they still act out , especially when you can’t be around 24/7.
