I was talking bout the middle school game but I didnt make that clear.Speaking of Robertsville was in a close game tonight but I never heard the final.Jefferson was beating Clinton like they stole something 34-0 at Half.I wonder what mercy rule is in middle school?Also I wonder if the better team won or not?Sorry I had to to say it

Jefferson seems to be really good and they have a lot of talent from what I hear. Bodes well for the future.

Yes they are and not just a star or 2 that does it all but a well rounded team.Heywards group was really good at Robertsville and we see a lot of those guys already playing and even though Jefferson was awful that yr.Good news is Robertsville is a solid or a lil above avg to go with a really good Jefferson team this yr.

Hopefully both teams have some linemen. And let’s hope most of them stick with it, I’ve noticed a lot of kids quit from MS to HS, gotta stop that trend.

But they are scared of my dog.

Walking dog at practice last week. Some players got nervous - "put a leash on that beast". I told them, "that's OK. Tee Higgins is scared of my dog, too"

They liked that.

Haha, Pit or Rott? How you holding up, ORN? Haven’t seen you on in a minute. Hope all is well? Looks like another year of struggles for your Seminoles. Them and my Vols both have struggled for years, barring the Winston years @ FSU. The college football landscape just doesn’t seem right when the Vols, Seminoles, and Huskers are all down.

Kickoff tonight!

Dog is no beast. Friendly Lab, hound mix. 80 lbs. And Tee was playfully scared of him.

All is very well. Family is healthy and happy. I'm around. Just not as visible. 

Noles, Vols, and for now Cats. Hope is a dangerous thing. Leads to heartache. Once I understood other things (only a few) are more important than football, it was easier to deal with FSU and other more local schools.

Amen to the last part of your reply. Couldn’t agree more. I’m glad to hear the family and yourself are doing well. Hope to see you around at a game sometime soon.

The word is they do.Im no expert at middle school OL projections so its hard to say for sure just watching.All though down a little this yr we have done pretty good most yrs avg 35 plus freshman.I notice some of schools we play have only 45-55 total on varsity roster counting FR.Oak Ridge is one of few schools I see in papers that dont list FR on varsity roster or we could dress out 80-90 players.I think we have a bigger problem keeping guys from fresh to soph than we do from middle to high school.It would be really nice to see us hire a great freshman coach and put a lot of time and care into them instead of sending them out of the way and forgetting about them until next yr

I just posted to Twitter and Facebook an interview with Tee's mom. She said he used to be afraid of dogs but now has one who lives with his mom.

I wonder if UT would be up for a Friday night game on our bye date?
