I'll answer that TRF.

This is a region game.  AND Coach Turner could have taken the forfeiture win over Jasper but didn't. HE rescheduled it.   Jasper reneged on a contract with Walker Valley to play this game.  

 

Anyone that would forfeit a region game instead of making it up in order to make up a non region game is a flaming idiot. Can’t see how anyone can blame Marion on that one.

A region game is a lot more important than any other game. I wouldn't say reneged. There was a $5k buyout of the game but WV coaches said not to worry about it they could find another opponent. They understood the reasoning. 

That's sorta my point PP68.  A region game is important.  Important enough that if you only had 3 days to prepare and play on Saturday you would.

And yes it is reneging on a contract.  That's why there's a $5 grand buyout clause to alleviate any hard feelings and is used as a determent to cause others not to do the same and create all sorts of mayhem.

Our game could have been made up along with their game against Tyner.  

This game against Tyner had no bearing on our game being rescheduled with Jasper.  None at all.

You guys are going to have to let it go. What's done is done.

I've let it go.

You can't have your cake and eat it too.

You can't expect others to bend over backwards to help yall out of a scheduling jam and turn around and poke others in the eye with theirs.  

Double standard in my book.

If I recall I think TSSAA wanted region games made up if at all possible. Obviously the teams involved in this game had no problems with the schedule changes.

Feller that ain’t a nary bit hard to figure out. Yous see, Pruitt knowds his group of purple clad warriors weren’t going to come close to beating the Pirates. Pert near the same mind set regarding WV. Each game come before a region game. Pruitt my be a coward, but he’s not stupid enough to forfeit a region game. Figure them jailhouse fellers can’t afford to forfeit region games and want to be as healthy as possible. Old Pirate says the Pirates would have physically monkey stomped the Warriors! Does you have any idea how long it takes to recover from one of them? Recon a smart long time!  GO RAMS, Old Pirate says Rams by 8,  More Ifin the Rams play with discipline. 

Funniest thing I've read all day lol.

TSSAA had a plan in place if it was needed where all region games would have taken precedence had we started the season late.  As you know they voted to go with the Hybrid plan that was introduced.  The governor allowed football to be excluded from the restrictions that were in place and the whole season was back on.

No where does the TSSAA say region games must be played.  

That's part of my point.    Tyner didnt have to play this game. They didnt have to reschedule to accommodate yall.   But Coach Turner did.  It is something your coach was unwilling to do for the Pirates and our game.

    • Never in my life have I seen a team in a scrimmage against their own defense look so lost and confused. The defense didn’t look much better, the coaching staff can’t keep their anger together, not only with the players but also with their other coaches. I feel awful for those players. None of them look like they wanted or should’ve been out there, but for the grown men on the sidelines acting like fools, it's just embarrassing to the Farragut name and reputation. I now see why they chose not to live stream this on their YouTube channel.
    • We could sure use some math teachers country wide. Ever go into a store or restaurant and the bill comes to $9.97 and you give them a ten dollar bill and 2 pennies because you wanted a nickle back and then the meltdown starts and the next thing two more people have to come and help figure it out and the place comes to a complete halt. I see this everyday and it's a sad representation of all these schools allowing these kids out the door to get shortchanged the rest of their life. 
    • I like the Pirates chances. I’ll be there as soon as work allows.
    • Stars, I heard we were searching far and wide for some math teachers. Any chance their kids bench press or 40 times are getting checked? LOL I’ve heard good things from 825.  
    • I think it was expected. “Bad” luck I guess to get a couple difference maker QBs in the same class. I thought the decision was made a little early myself, but they were struggling offensively last year.  I assume the running quarterback alco had last year would be a senior this fall, and the transfer would start the following two years in addition to getting a ton of playing time this year. Maybe he waits two yrs, but I doubt it. The kid is good. So is the one who stayed.
