Sorry, his grammar is fine and you are a troll. You don't have a team? You must not be loyal to the high school you attended or are attending. Very sad either way. Also, you don't know STILLNUM1 so be careful who you call a little guy. You might be writing a check your #### can't cash.

Its called the Oak Ridge 85 and the Clinton 12.  Both groups were honored last August at Scarboro Community Center by Gov. Bill Lee.  

Willie, not all of us are scared of our shadow like you, and did you really use hashtags to blur out the word "butt"? 

 

And OR cat, that is true but both groups were only honored at one high school in the entire county so... I guess Old man Joe didn't see the need since he just wanted to get to the end of his final glorious season.

I would say Old man Joe realized that since there was a ceremony in August of 21 in Oak Ridge with the governor on hand that a second honoring just weeks later wasn't necessary, especially since Clinton did it for a second time also in August.  Do you think that a third ceremony in a row in a matter of weeks was really necessary.   C'mon man.  And Old man Joe still managed to beat Clinton even in the season of the worst record in OR football history.  What was that your boy said?  Sucks to suck?  YB, don't start acting like those people.

Fair enough OR cat. Fair enough

Pretty sure we honored the "85" during halftime of a game a few years ago. I remember some students, football players, as well as some of the faculty on the big screen monitor showing their respects to them in words. Also, just a few weeks ago, Rufus Shepherd, the first black sports player at OR (in any sport, I think)  in the 1960's was honored before a baseball game, and got to throw out the first pitch.

I figured you'd chime in on this one SS.  On another subject,  I did hear where we have plans in the works this year to honor Walmart Bag Guy and BC Jr.  at halftime of a game.  

On a serious note, I think the ole man just might have it in him to make back into the stands for home games this year.

That's awesome news, my friend. I've missed him the past few seasons. I'll be sure to come see him and give him a big hello and welcome back. Good Lord willing.

And can't wait to be present during the recognition of both of those guys. What an incredible honor that will be. I'll be sure to put my hand over my heart during the anthem so bag guy doesn't kick my ayse.

I should have pushed him off that hill when he called me an imposter.  Said I was probably a South Doyle fan pretending to be an OR fan.  He's like, "Who's this guy?"  And then BC jr. asked me what I did for a living, and when I told him he challenged that, just refused to believe it, he said, "I'm gonna have to check into that".  Lol.  What a crew.

They are definitely something to behold, albeit not in a good way.

    • Worst thing SC could do is get rid of Dyer. I agree with everything said above.
    • Jada Hart, Jasmine Bailey and Kaitlyn Patterson the first two being PG's are all good guards and can handle ball pressure and are good players. Raven Wells will be a good post. There were games this summer where any one of the one's I mentioned were in double figures. Gibson County will control TO's much better this year and they will press more and get back to playing faster. AA is down across the board. I have been all over watching ball. Alcoa jumped to AAA and Jackson County moved down. to A. No telling who wins it this year. I agree Union City, Westview and Gibson County will be a dogfight and must see basketball. Poster insuated that Gibson County has a mental block against Westview. Well give me Maddie Gray and we line up last year and they wouldn't have won a game. Let's see how Westview does this year. Their starting five last year had three transfers in it. Rogers from Obion, Trevathon from Greenfield and Gray from South Fulton. Looks like they swung and missed with the girl from Florida this year so let's see how they do playing with kids from Westview. Gibson County has a really good 7th grade class this year.I have done learned you play with what you got and work them hard and develop them and see what happens. Just keep battling and see what happens. I like our team this year. Very athletic. Every year is the same with injuries and can be catistrophic to any. I watched GC all summer long. South Side and GC was very evenly matched and was a classic war.We had some quality wins this summer. Beat Huntingdon, Henry County, Bowling Green, Liitle Rock Central as well as a couple other quality Kentucky Teams. Westview's talent pool may not be what it has been without transfers the next few. And as far as Wilkins riding off into the sunset, where do y'all seem to think he will leave?? Wilkins is a healthy dude and he loves basketball and loves coaching. I wouldn't be suprised if he coaches a few more years. He loves the game and loves every minute of coaching.   
    • I think Gibson County is a top five team this next season but I do agree they will drop off a lot after this year.  Westview lost a ton and will be down this season and hopes of returning to glass house again is slim.  The run they have had is super impressive!
    • My take on GC for this year: Based on what I saw last year and heard this summer, I’m not sure GC could surprise me next year with any outcome. Wilkins is a great coach - they could win the district and region and go to Murfreesboro. They could also come in third in the district and not get out of region. The two returning starters are very talented but Guru is right that they didn’t always play hard last year. The other three starters are good enough in their roles for GC to be successful. There is no depth. Foul trouble could be a problem - Wilkins may avoid it by playing a lot of zone. An injury would be catastrophic. I hope they have a big year and Wilkins rides off into the sunset in Murfreesboro because, without some significant transfers, there are some tough years coming in the next few.
    • Daniel Boone coming down to 3A makes this much tougher. They added a couple transfers to the Flores girl. Cocke Co, Northview, Greeneville, and Daniel Boone - only two headed to Murfreesboro.
