I was just looking over Cloudland's schedule and I didn't realize they played Hampton twice??   I'm sure that was arranged with Coach Lunsford was still over the Cloudland program, but I don't remember ever seeing that before.  Anyone else seen that?

I noticed it when the schedule first came out.

To be honest, I see nothing wrong with it.  You prolly don't either.

And also, I don't think  a school has to schedule anyone other than their regional opponents. 

Let's say there's 6 teams in a region.  That's 5 region games.  A school can schedule each of their five regional opponents twice for a total of 10 games.  Only the first of the two games will count towards the region standings.  The other 5 will be regarded as out of region in the standings. 

Never seen it happen but I suppose it's a possibility.

I didn't say anything was wrong with it.   Just thought it was unusual and I haven't seen it before.

Not been long ago they did it every year, Cloudland went through a spell where no one would play them and Hamptons coach helped them out.  Really a good game for both. Always got a gate and most times the games are competitive.

2002 was the last time they played each other twice a year until this year.

It's not unusual, it just doesn't happen very often...Greenback played Vonore(district opponent also) twice in reg. season six years in a row from 1981-86.

    • 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  
    • The administration took the path of backing the coach and whispering to people that the kid was a problem. The reality is that the kid was never a problem on a team or classroom. The player says she has witnessed who back her not saying the f-word.  Why did the coach make that story up and other stories? I am not Sigmund Freud and do not have an answer for the ex=-coach's behavior..  
    • I think they have they coach they want close to being done. I guess we will all see how this plays out. I hope the hire a good one. There are some players in the box for the next coach to work with. 
    • Going to grundle Troy Fleming?
    • I agree I don't think it will go to trial either, but I feel like that will be because no judge would deem this to warrant a law suit... If the school board settles, they loose and all coaches and schools loose too.
