Do what? You mean they aren't the Eagleton Eagles?  

#Shocked

The Elementary School was the Eagleton Eagles. It was originally 1-8 (no K back then) When they built the Jr. High they became the Royals (royal blue/white) and the Elementary remained the Eagles. Colors black/white.  Bearden Bears?

Royals sounds like wussie name plus there isn't anything Royal about a Rockford Redneck anyway if you get what I mean. Eagles would be a great name or Bulldogs in memory of the old Everett High School which a lot of 60 year old plus Blount County Natives attended that live on that side of the county, even the county mayor who loves to get his picture in the paper all the time went to Everett. We can even say he came up with the idea so he can get his picture in there another time.

Eagleton Jr. High has a big reunion group/alumni association, that meets quite often.

 

PS: The county mayor was there.

You guys still think small "community" schools can compete with Maryville and Alcoa for players? lol 

Greenback seems to be doing pretty well.   Three state championship appearances in 2015, 2016 and 2017. State championship in football in 2017 and state championship in baseball last year.  Some greenback addressed are actually in Blount County. Why are they not complaining about losing kids to Alcoa or Maryville? Really interested to hear an answer.

 Its about building community ties to a school that kids want to be a part of and eventually send their own children to the same school.

No, small community schools were fun and competitive until some Einstein came along with a brilliant idea and put them together. You'll still be talking about the 2007 WB team in 2037 to your grandkids.

This may be your best post EVER!

By the way the 2007 team lost 30-0 in the 2nd round of the playoffs and ended up 9-3.

This had/has everything to do with cost-savings.

    • Im asking everyone to keep roy whited and his family in your prayers. Coach whited won back to back state championships at white county in 98-99. He is very well liked and respected in this area. For those of you that dont know he went missing 3 days ago. No one knows where he is. His truck was found in a rural part of the county. Thanks again. We are all very concerned. 
    • West would be a good team to get behind if they can pull it off again like last year. That championship game last year was awesome. 
    • I say that because he stepped out of a MUCH better situation on his own than he would see at least his first 3 years at DCA and it would take at least that much to bring him back to coaching. There are other fish in the sea, but again money talks. Need to fix the girls hoops too. Now I'll try again. Who has Pierce locked in for his staff? Hearing a McGavock man but not the Iceman.
    • I’ve heard mostly good things from the gridiron. Lots of optimism. It sounds like the portal has mostly helped, though there are a few expected defections. Comeback year!
    • Rudesell 1 year at Crockett. Coach Tate 2 weeks a Bradford. South Gibson supposedly going with jcs middle school coach. Which isn’t who I thought would get it, I know the top 2 was between him and Obion girls head coach.
