Heard maybe a senior WR transferring to private school… 

Talk is the veer is not a good fit for the athletes they have currently…

Running game should be good if you RBs stay but who knows 

Heard the same on the WR.  Hear a public school in Knox County public and a private school in Sevier County are in play.  

He would have to move in to the zone to be eligible at another public school, and I am pretty sure he would have to move to be eligible at the private schools, too.

Yeah, the A, B, A move wont work here without a move.

What little I have got to know our new coach has been great.I have no doubt he will have us on top in no time.If you are good he will find a way for you to help the team.Ive been impressed and if parents can get behind him and just tell little Johnny to go to work they will be happy in the end.Its too bad so many kids today are taught its all about them because its so much better when you play for the right reasons.Im just glad my parents told me to get better instead taking my side when I would complain about not getting ball enough.We have some really good players and it can get good quick if we can fix or improve a few areas in yr 1.Go Wildcats

I can appreciate your excitement. He is a good coach, but I think everyone knows he is only as good as his Defensive Coordinator. He scores points but most of OR games will turn into shoot outs… if he has any players left by August

So..... a former Vol/NFL player as D coordinator isn't going to cut it?  Are you making your stand there?  With any changes to any program, there will be some turnover.  It happens.  Also, everything is new, offense and defense.  I expect a slow start to next season and finishing stronger.  But, I like what I see out of this staff so far.

All I could find out was Spring Practice is May 2 - 19.

Those of us who are going to follow Harden Valley, their Spring Practice is May 4 - 20.

Spring practice starts today.  today and tomorrow are in shorts.  Full pads on Monday.  Kids are carpooling to Blankenship.  Hard to believe we can't afford a bus.  smh.  One car accident (God forbid) will be way more costly than a bus in many more ways than one.  That exact thing happened at DB one time.  The band gets the game field on Thursdays at DB and the team used to carpool to a private facility for Thursdays practice.  One of the cars full of players got in a car accident and that was the end of carpooling.  Get a bus !!!! No brainer.

Out of curiosity, didn't the Vol/NFL player DC come from Catholic? Why didn't he stay? Is there a lot of trust in him because of his playing career? Playing and coaching do not always go hand-in-hand.

Didn't that same D coordinator get demoted at Catholic?

We will have enough players left to beat Clinton.

    • I will never forget the 1983 Heritage vs Maryville game. I remember driving home and listening to WGAP. Can't remember the announcers name. He asked Coach Story why he kept going for 2? Story told him " Why didn't you ask Renfro that last year"
    • TSSAA will let them all go to Mase.
    • Well nothing new, the Mustangs are really talented again this coming season!  They very well could go undefeated in regular season.  We shall see what happens in postseason.  I think the path to state title game is a little clearer than years past.  I think the Stangs are going to be really good and I think the traditional teams around in 2A are not going to be as strong.  It should be a fun season!
    • I would not put too much stock into the UH over Eagleville. From what I understand they were pretty banged up in that tourney. Catcher was out, they were throwing pretty deep in their bullpen and a few key players were beat up in their infield. Sounds like they are pretty healthy heading into the district tournament. Look at their schedule, they played some really good teams.
