Knox Association has a guy like that.  As soon as you see him on the field, both teams know they're getting screwed.  It's a shame they are allowed to continue to work games and continue to consistently suck.

This is why Aloca stayed 3A and didn't come to 4A. Just to much talent once you get to 4A

Everything I'm being told is that the association is desperate for officials, not just in Knox County, but statewide. This is what happens when you don't have the ability to weed out subpar officials. They just don't have anyone better (or anyone else). It's also why we're seeing more Thursday night games because they're so short-staffed.

I want to get involved and be a part of the change that is necessary to improve the product on the field, but I'm also not a glutton for punishment; they just don't pay officials enough to take that kind of abuse.

I try not to be critical of officials because they're human, they have a challenging job, and sometimes they don't have the best angle to make a call on a bang-bang play. But my goodness, I'm at a loss on that one. I don't know what he saw from that angle, but he was in the perfect position to see where that hit occurred.

That's why I called him out by name. He needs to be fired or moved down to midget league. What a buffone. He got caught with his britches down on live TV and called out by the announcers which you never see that often in a high school game. We all make mistakes but this MF'er goes out with an agenda and Mr.Coulter and Mr. Hodson need to take this clown over to Amazon and ship him off somewhere without a return address on the box.

You're being very generous Nut , he was in the perfect Position to see the Play and that's what makes his call so Terrible . I appreciate these guys who are putting the time in to help our communities , but guys like this makes everyone look bad . I saw a great game last night where both teams played their hearts out and if this Ref had been the one who decided the outcome of this game it would have been a tragedy . Fans will always argue over holding calls because they're just about a little holding going on during every single play , but when a Ref throws a flag for hitting someone 2 yards in bounds during the most critical time of the Game ... That's pitiful . 

I think both of these teams will go on and win State Championships this year and I'm glad that Maryville is playing both of them because great competition can only make you better .

BTW , I hope the Alcoa QB is ok , man that Kid is a Gamer ! He tried to put the team on his back and carry them to a win last night . He was the difference in the Maryville game I thought , not only a great passer but he's a great runner too !

was a fun game to watch.  I think the alcoa announcers are the best I have seen in high school football.  I absolutely loved them.  really funny and engaging!

Where do you get one of those radio's where you can see the announcer? Didn't know that existed yet.

Congratulations to your Rebels. Great game to watch. If The Ridge can’t win it all in 5A, I wouldn’t mind at all seeing West win it all. Lamar deserves one. He’s been there right on the brink for a while. Good luck buddy.

Thanks SS...Classy as always and would love to see it.

Fact. I'd hate to have seen that call cost a good team...........either way!
