Fayetteville also had an open week, so even though they had a lot to deal with, unfortunately, they have had some time to heal up also. If they can focus, going from the high of sewing up the school’s first ever district championship to having to say goodbye to a teammate, the off-week has been tumultuous. Tomorrpw, though, things get back to a normal game week schedule. We’ll see Friday the mental state of the team. 

I couldn’t imagine what the family, friends and community are going through. Praying for you all.

Fayetteville will be ready to play.  It's a long ride up there.  We travel pretty well this year, even so.   The last time we played there a kid told the team as they were getting off the bus,  "Y'all sure came a long way to get your (expletive deleted) kicked."  It shook some of our players up that a 90lb kid had that kind of swagger.  Our coaches thought it was great!  It's a fun story that a few of us old timers tell every year.  The ride home is not too bad if you win. On a side note, the kind words and statements of support and prayer for our community and school family are much appreciated!  Go TIgers!!!

I do not for one moment think that the events of the last week will impact our team's desire to show ANY opponent what they are capable of, and their newfound focus and rallying cry to continue their success.  As somebody on another thread mentioned, "I feel sorry for their next opponent".  Esp. if they are the ones bringing up that stupid question of eligibility of one of our players.

Are you saying Gville is who questioned the player's eligibility?

Good luck to both teams

No.  I have no proof of who it was, only know that earlier we were contacted and cleared by TSSAA.  I don't see any logical reason why an out-of-region opponent would even be interested.

I would say every opponent is suspect.

We are much healthier. We still have 3 or 4 still out,  and we may get 1 or 2 of them back. One good thing though is that our QB is settling into the role, and the offense is looking better as they've played more together.

That's what I was gonna say. Gville would have nothing to gain. The way you worded it made it seem that you thought your next opponent is who contacted the TSSAA.

Good y’all got cleared!  But be careful, that Childress man as @MountainTroll and @Roy Dillard refer to him, has been known to make mistakes then come back and cover himself.
