Called the game and it turns out that Mcminn had Know idea of a positive player ?? Doesn't make sense ! But if indeed a player tests negative(Mcminn) and Sullivan called the game , Then Mcminn advances ... Weird year If thats true then Thats a load of crap. Everything this year is though lol. If there is no case then why not play the game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because from every source I've seen in the tri-cities has it that Sullivan County Health Department called the game. If McMinn Co proves that they in fact didn't and them not calling the game and wanting to play like scheduled then McMinn would get the win. Can't have no repercussions when your health department called the game on false information (If proven) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

timcraw Posted November 14, 2020 Report Share Posted November 14, 2020 Just now, Solomon said: Because their health department made a decision based on little to no facts. Based on Knoxnews: "TSSAA assistant director Richard McWhirter, who handles high school football, confirmed the game was canceled, though no reason was given. Bernard Childress, the Executive Director of the TSSAA, said that a winner of the game would be decided on Monday." Looks like uh oh for the Tribe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TSSAA will have the final say on who wins with what looks to be different info coming from everywhere. Sucks but I think the TSSAA would give the win to whoever health department didn't call the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The TSSAA did not make the call. it was cancelled by the SC Heath Dept. I can't understand why the SC Health Dept. didn't inform McMinn earlier in the day before the team with parents and fans drove all the way up there? When was D-B's Athletic Director informed? As I said, this is "supposedly" what transpired. Not pointing fingers at anyone. Just lots of questions from everyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
