I have no idea who you could be talking about "alot of people that want Coach Cummings to fail"...unless you're talking about the same people who wanted Gaddis to fail...everyone in Knoxville and Clinton! If that's what you mean, then I agree...if you mean people other than that, then please explain

I think he is talking about Cleveland.  Cummings and them were not a good match when he left West to coach there and didn't turn the program around.  Cleveland fans don't like Cummings at all! (Look back at some of the Halls threads when he came back to Knoxville)

Anyone thinking Coach Cummings isn't a great coach really hasn't been paying Attention . West under Cummings always played Maryville tough . 

That’s what I’ve always said. His West teams gave Maryville very stiff competition. Granted, those teams were very talented, but we have plenty of talent here in OR to go around too. People get fooled by his time at Cleveland, but that was just a crappy situation all around, and it’s not like any other coach that has coached there since Monroe left has really tore it up by any means either. Cleveland is a tough place to succeed it seems. I mean, look what he did at Halls, with a lot less talent than he’s gonna have at his disposal  at OR. They came within a hair of beating Powell last year, and were in just about every game they lost.

In this era of football, the weapons at Oak Ridge make it impossible to be unsuccessful. Unless you’re Joe Gaddis. 5-6 skill players that would start on any area team. They should be able to score in bunches, even if the great Winston Russell calls plays from the retirement home.

I won’t disagree with that. Honestly, I think Joe lost his fire, and with that lost the whole team. I mean, when you don’t have mandatory workouts, something is badly wrong, and it showed on the field. Credit to him, he knew he had lost it and hung it up. At least he was humble enough to admit that by his action of stepping down.

He back stabbed Mike Mullins. Wouldn’t really call what he did humble. Oak Ridge would’ve been in better shape to get rid of both Mullins and Gaddis.

I don’t know the whole story, so I don’t have the right to talk about it. I’m not gonna drag his name through the dirt when he isn’t here to defend himself. That’s all I’ll say about that. I’m glad a new era is starting up though.

I agree Coch Russell was great. In fact he is one of the most successful Oak Ridgers of all time. If that is not clearly apparent to you then maybe you deserve a bed in the retirement home.

Your negative comment to Coach Gaddis is also silly Willie like me.

I hope the season turns out well for your team. Mine is going all FOR THE RIDGE!  RWR!

    • Oh yeah, I’m sure you are different people just always on the same thread for some reason, always agreeing with each other, perhaps just a bunch of dorks who would like to ###### and moan about high school football coaches do a lot of other students, so you make a football team and get a yell at them. When they do something wrong, but I’m sure you don’t like that, do you?   and I’m sure I’m aware of where you get information. A teacher who was on the coaching staff but was fired after the new coaching and staff came in and realized he actually had to start taking his assistant job a little bit more seriously than just wanting to make a little extra cash on the side, hardly even showing up to most practices, should’ve left with his buddy to go to Farragut. I’m sure he could get him a defensive coaching job, but I doubt he will be there in three years. Looking at the way Farragut is currently going.
    • It may be hard to believe but there’s more people than me that think you guys are a bunch of losers.    I’m sure the coaching staff, yourself included, cursed at a bunch of high school students. Nobody could name more than 3 coaches on staff due to the constant turnover. 
    • That's complete BS.  Nobody at ACHS has access to CHS student records unless a transfer is made from CHS to ACHS.  
    • Trez's last scandal has died down, so I guess this is there opportunity to be the best 4A team playing in 2A a la Sissy MTN.  At least they won't be in a Z-district with 1a teams in the regular season.
    • Facts...until someone takes down the Rebels they should be the favorite. Got loads of young guys salivating at the opportunity to prove themselves and get a 3peat! Blazer how is Region 1 looking this year?
