Guess our "Righteous Indignation" don't have a chance tonight.  60-7 Powell, is about how everyone is making it sound on the radio.  Would love for our young men to put about 30 on Powell. - It's stil

That’s the thing, its saying multiple schools. There’s definitely something to it, like I said all it takes is for a player to say Coach X talked to me after X game and Powell is screwed. Then it’s  not He said he said anymore. 

I don't have any inside information, so this is a bit of a devil's advocate take. Why would a coaching staff, who already had to forfeit 6 wins the previous year, openly recruit kids postgame (in broad daylight/nightlight)? That doesn't make a lot of sense, on the surface. It seems like you'd have to be really arrogant, or really stupid, to do something so blatant even with all of the recruiting that currently goes on. And maybe Lowe (and his staff) is that arrogant and/or stupid. But I'll let TSSAA decide how to handle these allegations.

We all know that Lowe has gotten his fair share of OOZ players, right, wrong, or indifferent. Combined with his persona, I'd say there are at least a few coaches with an ax to grind.

I think I'm pretty level-headed on the T, but I'm not exactly sure that TSSAA will do anything in this situation, unless there is some pretty damning evidence presented. Without that, you're just looking at a lot of he said-he said. If it hadn't been for the situation with the ineligible RB last year, we probably wouldn't even be hearing about this.

The Powell AD publicly came out yesterday and is backing his coaches, FWIW. We'll see what happens. Friday night could be a beat down in the wake of all of this. Same thing happened vs. West last year, which immediately followed the forfeiture of those 6 wins.

Nothing will happen right now due to the playoffs but I'd say in the off season is when you'll see the sanctions by TSSAA or a resignation. We as a community knew bringing him back we would operate in the gray area so anyone who pays attention should not be surprised with the quick turnaround. I expect Matt to have them ready to take it out on Rhea Co. but feel it'll be too much of a distraction moving into next week or beyond.

They may very well "take it out" on Rhea County but our young men will be able to look in the mirror the next morning. You may cheat yourself to a few wins here and there but the day of reckoning always seems to come. If the Eagles miraculously win this game they will have done it the right way and not "if you are not cheating you ain't trying"     GO EAGLES!

I’m with you on multiple points here.

Here's the thing that people forget about high school sports.  The Powell kids aren't cheating.  If anyone is cheating it's adults.  So the Powell kids will "be able to look in the mirror the next morning" too.  Hold off on your righteous indignation...

Yes! Couldn’t agree more. Ultimately, the young men haven’t done anything wrong. The sad part is it really only hurts them in the long run. People forget that as well.

HERE'S THE THING..........Powell kids know if there are team mates that don't belong on the team. Sure, they are not responsible for it but they are going to suffer all the same. What about the honest player that loses his starting position because they brought in a ringer?

This I am in 100% agreement with. I feel bad for those kids. The kids themselves have done nothing wrong. The adults in this matter are ridiculous!

Wrong.  They don't know.  Legal transfers happen all the time.  Those kids can live in another zone and play a different school.  The transfer isn't illegal.  The recruiting is.

      And can you tell me who those two quarterbacks were, and every kid that was put into college from Bearden is a Bearden kid? It’s kind of why they graduated from Bearden.   and I would definitely not consider ETSU “waste”…

      Most of this is complete gibberish. But the one part I could decipher is putting kids in college. This coaching staff hasn’t put a single Bearden kid in college. They completed wasted one of the best WRs in East TN and have ruined two talented QBs. All because they’re in over their heads.

      Well, I’d hope the new coaching staff thinks they are all that because they can always walk around the school, anytime they want, thinking that, especially for what they’ve done for the student athletes and the players, putting more kids in college in his first season than the old coaching staff did in numerous years combined, but we will just sweep over that because I know you don’t like facts. But trust me, nobody wanted Mr. Big britches, made the star player switch to quarterback, which is ultimately the reason he ended up transferring to play the position. He loved, but unfortunately, had to be at another school because Mr. Big Britches doesn’t like when a teenager knows more than him, but can’t expect much coming from a guy who used all class throwing pencils up into the ceiling and making fun of football kids who were failing class right to their face, and in front of numerous students, even projecting on the board most of the time.

      After that first paragraph, I can see why you’re a TA and not a teacher. Have you made the move from South Knoxville to Bearden yet?    Maybe he left because he is an actual teacher and coach, and didn’t want to be associated with a group of foul mouthed middle school coaches who like to pretend they’re big time.

      Yeah and the coach is gone. Whole bizarre situation here. We played them a couple of times at MTSU last few years. She was a player for sure.
