Very Unofficial Wildcat posts


Recommended Posts

Thanks Willie I met LOD when Oak Ridge played Riverdale in Oak Ridge. I had cooked a rib dinner for the boosters and the Rivera bus went to our side of the field by mistake so I fed a bunch of Riverdale fans also. Thus the ribs comment from Mike. We went down there one time and he set with me on the Oak Ridge side for the first half, in all of his Riverdale gear of course. It was fun.

Mike was a good friend and a fine man and I'm gonna miss him!

Countdown Breakfast Fundraiser at Aubrey's in OAK RIDGE...PANCAKES and PANCAKE BLOCKS in 16 days.

June 12, 2021, 8 am - 10 am.

We made it to State in 2020 but it will be harder in 2021.

Remember we Won State in 1991, not so much in 1992.

Was last year a fluke or can the Cardinal and Grey GRIND it to Finley Stadium in WILDCATanooga?

Grind It VictORy City Grind It!

RWR!

A flood of Cardinal and Grey Wildcats stormed Blankenship Field for one last time. Led down the STEPS of CHAMPIONS to the field by All State Defensive End / Student Body President / Son of the ORHS President was Jaxon Adams. All the 2021 Wildcats and Lady Wildcats were there from Mitchell Gibbons to Khamari Mitchell-Steen. They even let Willie on the field in 1982 where I proceeded to light off fireworks. For some reason I didn't get in trouble for it.

What am I talking about?

The 2021 Commencement for Oak Ridge High School. Shown on YouTube at WCAT LIVE! Scroll down around seven videos and look for the WCAT LIVE! with the Symbol of the Atom.

I said it's GREAT to be an Oak Ridge Wildcat.

RWR!

It was a hot, but wonderful night, Wille.  Lots of current and former Wildcats were in attendance.  My family alone had representatives there from ORHS Classes of:  1958, 1978, 1982, 2007 and 2021.  It's always great to be an Oak Ridge Wildcat!

 

RWR!

I am super glad you got to go see QB 1 take his place in the long line of Wildcat alums. If all my sisters and brothers were still alive we would have had eight Palmer children, three nephews and one niece in attendance.  That is 12 ORHS graduates with one former Wildcat football player, one former Wildcat Fish, two former SoccerCats, and two former TrackCats.

I didn't do anything at ORHS except be weird and go to most sporting events.

    • And can you tell me who those two quarterbacks were, and every kid that was put into college from Bearden is a Bearden kid? It’s kind of why they graduated from Bearden.   and I would definitely not consider ETSU “waste”…
    • Most of this is complete gibberish. But the one part I could decipher is putting kids in college. This coaching staff hasn’t put a single Bearden kid in college. They completed wasted one of the best WRs in East TN and have ruined two talented QBs. All because they’re in over their heads. 
    • Well, I’d hope the new coaching staff thinks they are all that because they can always walk around the school, anytime they want, thinking that, especially for what they’ve done for the student athletes and the players, putting more kids in college in his first season than the old coaching staff did in numerous years combined, but we will just sweep over that because I know you don’t like facts. But trust me, nobody wanted Mr. Big britches, made the star player switch to quarterback, which is ultimately the reason he ended up transferring to play the position. He loved, but unfortunately, had to be at another school because Mr. Big Britches doesn’t like when a teenager knows more than him, but can’t expect much coming from a guy who used all class throwing pencils up into the ceiling and making fun of football kids who were failing class right to their face, and in front of numerous students, even projecting on the board most of the time.
    • After that first paragraph, I can see why you’re a TA and not a teacher. Have you made the move from South Knoxville to Bearden yet?    Maybe he left because he is an actual teacher and coach, and didn’t want to be associated with a group of foul mouthed middle school coaches who like to pretend they’re big time. 
    • Yeah and the coach is gone. Whole bizarre situation here. We played them a couple of times at MTSU last few years. She was a player for sure.
