The TSSAA has reached a decision. DB & McMinn are going to play in Knoxville at Neyland Stadium....there haven't been any good games played there all year.

Then once again we have DB who has no issue here being slowed down because McMinn possibly  a covid Issue and then McMinn can’t get their documentation in. How long does DB get to be screwed over beca

Maybe the Mcminn health department didn't have the paperwork the TSSAA asked for because it was never done in the first place..just wondering out loud

Bingo.

If I had to make a wild guess the I would say MCMINN (either school or HD) screwed up because otherwise I would have expected a lot more protest coming from down that way after DB was awarded the win.    But seeing as we are dealing with the TSSAA its anybody's guess, I could be way off base here

In yesterday's Athens newspaper there was an article explaining what transpired, according to the Director of McMinn County Schools, Lee Parkison: “Somebody is not telling the truth, and I don’t know what else to tell you, because we put out a statement ourselves with corroboration from the Tennessee Department of Health and McMinn County Schools,” Parkison said. “And we followed our protocols and processes to the letter. And after the contact tracing process, the requested information was turned over to the TSSAA. Because that’s exactly what we’re told. Somebody’s not telling the truth here. But I can promise you we’ve done our part.”

IMO - not good enough to just simply say: well I guess someone's lying and then just wash your hands of it.

I'm hoping he's not just simply washing his hands of it - I guess that remains to be seen.

I don't think the Director of Schools is washing his hands of it, but he is using discretion - which he should. The State Rep for McMinn County has been and still is looking into it. Basically, the TSSAA is saying "end of discussion" on the matter, so I'm not sure anything other than legal action will expose the truth going forward.

Hope you're right in relation to the Director of Schools.  If legal action is what it takes, I hope that's where it goes.  I've been trying to do all I can to make sure this doesn't just quickly fade away.

Is the Hunt kid a senior this year and if so where does it look like he may play at on the next level, kid has some wheels.

Word is this is the walkthrough at DB the day before McMinn was to play up there:

HC: Guys, we can't stop Hunt.

Defensive Coach: Let's see if any of the players feel they can.

HC: Team, we have to stop Hunt, but it looks like we have no chance. Suggestions?

JV Kid in the back: Heck, he isn't anything special. My grandma can stop him!

Varsity players glare at the bold freshman.

HC: Now, son. You know he is fast. No way your grandma could get the job done.

JV kid: Well, she works at the Health Department...

Db couldve held him in check

      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.

      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.

      I'm from Cloudland and we've never played a sectional game.  We need to win tomorrow night to avoid that bus ride.  Us and north greene can play with you guys so I'm expecting good games whoever the matchup is.
