Not sure on the total number of players this year (i'm sure its around 40 give or take a few) but i do know that 18-19 of them are freshman and these kids are ballers. And then a nice size group of 7th & 8th graders following behind them... The next few yrs should be fun watching these boys grow and become football players.

I hope they have at least one down year so we can make a run again. They have owned the East in 1A for 5 years. lol

Lol I hear ya. I do believe this maybe our down year, i hope not but we are definitely young. I've been following SP on twitter and the workouts, player updates, etc. you boys got some dang studs... imo you are the #1 in the east and i also hope we continue to meet and play that Friday after Thanksgiving.

The upcoming  freshman class on paper is better then the Greenback team that won a state championship several years back that had Bryce Handly. They have won 3 super bowls, a Blount County Championship, that had Alcoa and Maryville in it, and also a national championship  through the battle of Rocky top  tournament!!!!!  This class will make a statement guaranteed if they play too their potential.

Always sad to lose anyone but when we can relate to them through such a loved sport like football, well, it hits even harder

A few years ago I remember Rivalry Thursday and Mark Packer was broadcasting the Greenback vs Coalfield game at Greenback.  Mark Packer interviewed Shawn Muncey about the tradition of watching game in back of pickup truck. It was also Breast Cancer Awareness day.  Shawn Muncey had his hair and beard dyed pink. Me and my coworkers had a good laugh about that.

It was his truck they broadcasted in if I'm not mistaken,and yes ole Shawn was all pink.Back when we played together he and Snail (his partner in crime lol) would play jokes on anyone they could.We all were like brothers even us younger guys.Going to miss him for sure!!

We lost another great man, Saturday morning... Teacher/AD/Admin/COACH Jerry Masingo lost his battle with cancer. He'd been at Greenback 52 years b4 he retired... Rest Easy Coach! 

Friday nights at Cooper Field wont be the same without Shawn and Jerry! 

But the 1st day of full pads is finally here, think i'll go over and watch the boys practice in a little bit.

    • Groves got the ball over 20+ times. His son arguably played the best for East in that game. 3rd and long multiple times and he came up big to continue a couple drives. Please shut up for the 3rd year in a row
    • 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.
