I know brother. It’s all good. By the way y’all take it easy on Da Haven Friday. 

With no spectators, we may never know.  Lol

Y'all take it easy on Westview.  I'm sure the Bulldog secondary will rise to the challenge.

Haywood fans, so sorry to hear about the lose of one of your own. I just read where the voice of the Tomcats loses his son. 

 

Certainly in my thoughts and prayers! 

I'm sure I can speak for all of Tomcat nation in saying that he is in our thoughts and prayers as well.

Okay Tomcat fans!  What's the latest on a turf field/new stadium?  I haven't heard anything in months.

According to the Brownsville Press, there are two options:  

Option One - Renovate the current stadium.  That would involve moving the field and tearing down and rebuilding the bleachers, concession stand/restrooms and dressing rooms.   A rough estimate of the cost would be 10 million dollars.

Option Two - Locate all athletic facilities on campus.  This would include a new stadium, band and football practice fields, moving the baseball field and tennis courts, and building a new softball field on what is left of the old baseball field. The estimated cost for this option is 19 million dollars.

A 60.000 square foot indoor practice facility would also be constructed.  This structure would be built regardless of stadium location.

I'm not sure if they have even considered parking.  It would be a nightmare.  

I'm going to add a third option, and that is do nothing!  I hope not, but having lived in Haywood County all my life, I see this option as the one they will choose for the near future. However, I do know money doesn't grow on trees.

    • Never in my life have I seen a team in a scrimmage against their own defense look so lost and confused. The defense didn’t look much better, the coaching staff can’t keep their anger together, not only with the players but also with their other coaches. I feel awful for those players. None of them look like they wanted or should’ve been out there, but for the grown men on the sidelines acting like fools, it's just embarrassing to the Farragut name and reputation. I now see why they chose not to live stream this on their YouTube channel.
    • 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. 
    • I like the Pirates chances. I’ll be there as soon as work allows.
    • 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.
