Up here in East Tennessee it's been Elizabethton and Greenville for the past  couple of years. 

I don't know. Most people I know around here have a favorable opinion of those two. I'd say DB is probably the most hated because they're one of the biggest schools in the state, mostly beat up smaller/weaker schools, and never do anything in the playoffs.

Not trying to be harsh but how is it that DB is such a large school that has so many financial resources but never has a great team?  Yes, they may have a good team for East Tennessee but if they had to compete against Maryville, Alcoa or the good teams from Middle Tennessee or Memphis it would be welcome to the real world.  Everyone knows that Nashville area schools are really growing fast but I have also heard that East Tennessee cities are also growing at a rapid rate so DB must have good athletes.

DB actually won the basketball state champ in 2022 I believe(not sure what year). Every year there's at least one guy who goes D1 for track, sometimes other sports. The athletes are there. The track guy never wants to play for the football program. Football and baseball both have year round programs, and they lose a lot of great athletes to the baseball program. Pretty much never the other way around. The football coaching staff is weak like most schools around here not named Betsy or Greeneville. There is favoritism for booster club players, but I'm not gonna rant about that because it irks a lot of people. Also probably one of the only school systems capable of losing athletes to its marching band. There's something like over 500 kids in the band. And a lot of them do play sports, but it's like swimming, track, cross country. The program is also not unified. I've seen the middle schools running the wing t like TN high used to do(not sure if they do anymore) when the high school runs mostly RPOs out of the shotgun. The program is just bad, and it does not attract the talented youth in Kingsport. DB has really good CTE and academic programs to where someone can have a promising career and not give af about football. State championship wrestlers don't want to stand there and watch guys get pummeled. Guys who run sub 5 40s dont wanna grind football all year just to sit on the bench and watch a wr, cb or safety with a 5.3 40 to get completely outclassed. In short, the amount of resources means the football program has to compete for talented youth in a way most schools don't, and it doesn't do it well.

Sorry to hear that the football program is in disarray.  For a high school to have a well rounded athletic program it’s a must that coaches share the best athletes

Yea but Coach Christian is getting old, and his son is a senior this year. A lot of coaches stop coaching high school or lower once their kids graduate. Hoping once he is gone we can get a better OC and HC. I do worry if our o line will suffer or not. He's one of the best o line coaches in the state.

    • This whole situation is bonkers. You don’t just kick your star player off the team just because you heard them say the F word; the coach definitely had something against the player, or somebody definitely did. Also, nobody has brought up the idea that the school blackmailed the college to get the college to withdraw the scholarship offer, not to mention that the coach who kicked her off is no longer even with the program; they were fired. I think this is a pretty easy lawsuit. I don’t know if she should deserve that much money, but I think she should get enough money for a full-ride scholarship if she cannot get one after this situation.
    • Oh yeah, I’m sure you are different people just always on the same thread for some reason, always agreeing with each other, perhaps just a bunch of dorks who would like to ###### and moan about high school football coaches do a lot of other students, so you make a football team and get a yell at them. When they do something wrong, but I’m sure you don’t like that, do you?   and I’m sure I’m aware of where you get information. A teacher who was on the coaching staff but was fired after the new coaching and staff came in and realized he actually had to start taking his assistant job a little bit more seriously than just wanting to make a little extra cash on the side, hardly even showing up to most practices, should’ve left with his buddy to go to Farragut. I’m sure he could get him a defensive coaching job, but I doubt he will be there in three years. Looking at the way Farragut is currently going.
    • It may be hard to believe but there’s more people than me that think you guys are a bunch of losers.    I’m sure the coaching staff, yourself included, cursed at a bunch of high school students. Nobody could name more than 3 coaches on staff due to the constant turnover. 
    • That's complete BS.  Nobody at ACHS has access to CHS student records unless a transfer is made from CHS to ACHS.  
    • Trez's last scandal has died down, so I guess this is there opportunity to be the best 4A team playing in 2A a la Sissy MTN.  At least they won't be in a Z-district with 1a teams in the regular season.
