Wasnt Elizabethton missing there starting QB Everett that game and Corey Russell had to play QB. He hurt his hand in the game and was limited a little.

5A is always a 1 or 2 team race so it's laughable to say 5A is stronger. As for Alcoa they have our number, as they do with any other team not named Maryville in the state. That being said EHS has giv

That is true, but going back to 1972 Boone's overall record against Elizabethton is 2-32, so even when we play then tough we seem to find a way to lose.      Elizabethton did not play their best game

Yes it is but I haven’t seen one close up but JMorton I know you have.

Shockingly heavy. It swallows his first ring. Still waiting on the third to get here. He said he told them he wanted it bigger than the football ring. If that’s the case I don’t know how he will wear it. Good problems.

Thanks for your support lawnman. You’ve always been very gracious towards him and we greatly appreciate it. Regardless of how this whole deal shakes out he has been incredibly blessed.

I am not sure what's up but most predictions locally that I have seen are not giving Betsy credit. They love Greeneville. Even after Betsy open a can of you know what last year. Lol

What do you classify as Local?  Everyone in NE TN knows that Tricitiessports and Fritz hates Greeneville and doesn't even include them in the NE TN top 10  when winning State Championships. (They use to when i played and didn't win state).  Knoxville News and 5starpreps doesn't cover them in rankings since they are to far away  but 5starpreps did a good write up on Betsy.

:roflol:Betsy beat Greeneville by 3 the first time and 2 td's the 2nd time after being down 2 Td's  so I hardly call that opening up a Can but maybe that is in the eyes of a Mav Fan :popcorneater:

In my opinion I think our local East Tennessee media should not include upper East. I mean there in there own area. Last time I checked I do not even think the weatherman includes there forecast. So it would be a long stretch adding them on area poll locally. But they did put Greeneville at #13 which is about right and have AC at #7 along with Maryville Alcoa. This year is exactly where they should honestly be.

Check again because they do include NE TN on the regional weather report and will see Johnson City weather on local Knoxville News Stations. (Doesn't mean I agree that they should be).  Greeneville is I guess in no mans land since Knoxville covers us (Even though we are NE TN) and Tri Cities doesn't.   The same Knox News paper has Knox Central ranked #2 ahead of teams like Maryville and Knox Catholic.  Anyone that actually knows football will tell you that man is an idiot who did the rankings. This is coming from someone who pulls for Central in 5a and have since they moved to 5a (Central's new head coach is a Greeneville Alum).

Swipes, you’re always great with greeneville history. Did the Knoxville area claim greeneville before all those state championships or after?

When the state went to 6 classifications in Football and Greeneville made the first run to the State Game in 2009 before losing to Giles County and QB Bo Wallace by 7 is when they started following us more and has just grown since then (Nick Crainey Knox Centrals head coach was the Senior MLB on that team).  The upset of Red Bank at Red Bank in the Quarter Finals opened a lot of peoples eyes that year since they were ranked #1, undefeated, and just put a 55-22 beat down on Fulton the week before.  Greeneville went into Chattanooga and grinded out a 14-13 win with a blocked pat to win the game. 

 

What a lot of people don't remember is Greeneville and Betsy had played up for years until the 6 classification system came out and both decided to play where the TSSAA put them. The previous year Greeneville had made it to the Semi's before getting beat by Maryville in 4a and the year before that was put out by Sullivan South and Curt Phillips who they beat in the regular season. The program and culture had changed in 2007 and when 6 classifications came out and they stayed in 4a then a lot of teams we never played before would soon find out about Greeneville Football since Maryville and Schools twice our size weren't in the way anymore

Swipes is right, Both Greeneville and EHS played up for years. For a while EHS was in the same class as DB/Science Hill before going to 3A where they actually were supposed to be. I think a lot of people don't realize that Greeneville were beating teams they weren't "supposed" to beat for a while due to everyone just assuming Greeneville was playing in the class they were supposed to be and not realizing Greeneville was playing up that much

      I don't know what's going on in the town of McMinnville, but I've read this and it's disturbing.  I'm a "player" person, and I want what's best for the player. If a player gets cut off the team because she said the "F word" then good grief. I mean, come on guys. I wish there was a way for the player to transfer to a different program and just play ball. There are a lot of athletes that are stuck because they're in crappy situations regarding their team/coach. This is player just happens to be one them.

      Won't happen. College coaches will back the coach every time and it cost this young lady her senior season. Looks like the player may be right on this one. School let her  go after one season. This stuff happens more than you think.

      “No college is going to offer a scholarship to a player that is kicked off of the team.” For language? I’m not seeing that as a dealbreaker.

      Why did the coach get rehired after she was let go as an assistant by the former Warren County coach and the current AD?? Is that accurate?? I am very familiar with situations like this. Suprised lawsuits haven't happend before. If the coach unfairly let the player go, I think she has a shot because it cost her a scholarship. No college is going to offer a scholarship to a player that is kicked off of the team. Not going to happen. There are bad hires like this a bunch and kids are treated unfairly by coaches that can't coach a lick and have super long ropes somehow. Amazing how some of these coaches get hired and keep their job.
