Attending any 7 on 7? Scrimmages? I know they lost a lot of experience. Will they be competitive? What's the future look like? Also any info on the new video scoreboard? Posts have been up for a long time but nothing else. Can't wait for football season! Go Wolves! I originally had Boone winning on Aug 26, but I recently heard some rather disheartening news about our team, so I'm going to label our game against you as a toss-up at this point. I saw a West Ridge player in the grocery store recently, I asked him about the team and he seems to think too many guys graduated and it's going to be more of a rebuilding year. I tried to encourage him and said just play each game as hard as you can and let the outcome be whatever it is. Except of course the Boone game, lol.....

We have an all-state kicker/punter so that will help out. Guaranteed losses will be Elizabethton, Science Hill and CAK. The other games are winnable but I think we can go 6-4.

NETNSportsFan Posted July 20, 2022 Report Share Posted July 20, 2022 hmmm. I hear they have some new coaches for offense so maybe they'll try some new things things this year. Will just wait and see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Run...Run...Incomplete Pass...Punt) gets old after a while. I really believe the defense will carry this team but they can only do so much. Sure hope we finally get to play West Ridge, especially after missing the South game in 2020 and the WR game last year due to covid. Maybe this could turn into a good rivalry eventually.

83SouthRebel Posted July 22, 2022 Report Share Posted July 22, 2022 Looking forward to welcoming the blazers to The Ridge. I still have no clue how the Wolves will be on both sides of the ball. I know they lost a lot to graduation. Hope they are competitive. The new video board is up and looks very nice. Great facility. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't wait to make the trip to Sullivan County. Boone has a new video board too. Actually it is an iPad duct-tapped to the top of the fieldhouse, but if you use binoculars it looks the same as a video board. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red Rebels Posted July 22, 2022 Report Share Posted July 22, 2022 I talked to a few coaches from West Ridge at the playoff game. Some of the nicest people I met all last season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NETNSportsFan Posted August 8, 2022 Report Share Posted August 8, 2022 How did West Ridge look against Elizabethton in their scrimmage? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
83SouthRebel Posted August 11, 2022 Report Share Posted August 11, 2022 Well here we are, 9 days out from the start of the season and I have absolutely no clue about the Wolves other than they are replacing a lot of starters and I think will be starting a sophomore QB. I think. I know the Wolves scrimmaged Betsy and I think Greeneville. Not heard a thing about either scrimmages. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NETNSportsFan Posted August 11, 2022 Report Share Posted August 11, 2022 I was told WR actually looked pretty good against Betsy. But I've also heard Eliz has switched QBs since then. WR's sophomore QB beat out the Jr who lead the JV team to an undefeated season last year so he must have showed something... I still think they'll be more of a run team than passing team.
