That stadium needs to be filled like it used to, and it sounds like it is on its way. I talked to one of the Anderson County coaches the other day, and he says the Mavericks will return the scrimmage from last fall camp to DB in a few weeks. That scrimmage was a good one for the Mavericks as it got them ready for a physical Powell team which they play week 1. I will make that trip to see all the improvements and hopeful to see a big crowd for the scrimmage. The Mavs have had a very good run, and hope to be a deep playoff contender this season. DB still packs the stadium for big games, like against Alcoa. But yeah, for the most part a lot of people are there to see the band. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Band parents/grandparents, blue hairs, and middle school kids just hanging out. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LINEDAD Posted July 11, 2022 Report Share Posted July 11, 2022 Here we go boys! 7 on 7 Tuesday at J Fred 6pm - Eliz, Vol, Unicoi DB has a very deep team coming back and some dandy's coming up. Going to be a fun season for the Indians no doubt about that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gritsngravy Posted July 18, 2022 Report Share Posted July 18, 2022 After watching the 7v7s, the secondary looks worse than before and regressed over the 7v7s. They looked decent vs Powell but Unicoi torched them twice last week. Maybe they can get it together over the next month and 3 scrimmages. Offense looks like it will be explosive -- and it better be based on what I've seen so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No disrespect for UC at all but they are a 2A school with 760 students. Had a good season last year but it's not like they are Alcoa....

Real football practice started today so we'll see what happens. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BatmanDB Posted July 18, 2022 Report Share Posted July 18, 2022 I wouldn't put one cent on what a 7v7 against Unicoi means and I wouldn't put two cents on any scrimmage.What counts is how a team grows from the start of a season until playoff time comes. I've seen DB hold it's own in scrimmages against Maryville but that means nothing in november.I still remember whipping DB in a scrimmage all over the practice field when I was in high school.Yep, DB lost about two or three games that season and we only won two. Practice is a practice but I would like to see Unicoi and Betsy go at it in pads. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BatmanDB Posted July 19, 2022 Report Share Posted July 19, 2022 Never know,Unicoi may have a team like they did in the very early days and beat my Greene Devils 120-0 . But,I'd agree and say that's not a matchup they would want .Back to the Indians. Not knowing but just guessing,I'd say it's about time that the Tribe was loaded with talent and I'm not talking in the band because they are always at the top.
