He made a big difference in many areas. He started the video program when I was there, and grew it into something special. He is already greatly missed.

So you have to be a life long dyed in the wool from day 1 to be considered a Maryville kid? BTW ….. there are a couple of posters in this thread that haven’t a clue what they are talking about. Sometimes the information you get from the Hardee’s morning crew should be fact checked We definitely need a fact checker because they don't meet at Hardee's anymore or haven't in the last two and a half years.

REBELRON Posted September 9, 2022 Report Share Posted September 9, 2022 Derek Hunt told me back in 2008 that coaching at Maryville High School was his dream job. Had Quarles stayed 15 more years Derek would have been happy being an assistant. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pepvol Posted September 9, 2022 Report Share Posted September 9, 2022 1 hour ago, ILB1999WHS said: I love watching them. Have been in knoxville 10 years or so now and I love HS football. They're the best coached team ive ever seen just about. And I care because I hear this "outsider progressive" crap a lot lately, and I understand some of it, but what I know about maryville is they've benefitted alot from those outsiders. So saying such nonsense is a bit silly. I have no problem with new blood, but Maryville is what it is today because of all the “ Rebels for Life” over the last 50 years . Tradition and History goes a long way in sports. This game tonight is part of the tradition and history that have made Maryville and Alcoa 2 of the premier High school football powerhouses in the state of Tennessee. Without each team constantly pushing each other to higher levels of play neither Team would be what they are today. Looking forward to another episode of this Classic Rivalry tonight! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

REBELRON Posted September 9, 2022 Report Share Posted September 9, 2022 Pepvol is right. When me and my brothers go to a Maryville Rebel Football game. It is almost like going to a class reunion. There are people that will be there tonight that hasn't missed a game in 20 to 30 years. Maryville vs Alcoa High School Football game is really important to both communities. I went to the Maryville vs Alcoa Junior High game last night at Alcoa. There were more people there last night than most of the High School games Maryville and Alcoa will play the rest of the season. Alcoa Grasshopper team plays the Lil Rebs tomorrow. There will be a good crowd at that game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm just saying, folks in here talking about the maryville mafia, when almost no place other than the nashville suburbs has empraced non-natives more. Quarles was from Jefferson County, Hammontree was from Greenback, and I think Olive was from Maryville. Those are the 3 coaches who proceeded DH and each put their all into being the HC here regardless of where they grew up.
