Anybody go over to Halls last night? Couldn't make it so was wondering how everybody looked with the new coaches!

I was there until 7:00.  I thought we looked good, but considering it was a joint practice and not a scrimmage it is hard to draw many conclusions.  We have a lot of speed on both sides of the ball.  Our lineman competed hard; first unit defense dominated up front.  If we can keep our guys healthy, it should mean a special season.  Some players that stood out:  Dozier should have a monster season for us; Heyward, Amari and Cummings  will burn a lot of teams that we play; also, Noles #20 gives us another option at TE; both Stansbury and Garza looked good at QB.  Defense was dominate and aggressive.  We have good depth backing most of the starters.

Most important, I thought everyone on the field had a good idea of what they were supposed to do.  Probably the most positive thing I got out of this session.

I was there, I would agree, especially with the last statement, I think this staff is well organized and has players in the right positions and this could be a very good season. will be even better once the freshman join them in August and guys that are in track and baseball now return as well.

    • After that first paragraph, I can see why you’re a TA and not a teacher. Have you made the move from South Knoxville to Bearden yet?    Maybe he left because he is an actual teacher and coach, and didn’t want to be associated with a group of foul mouthed middle school coaches who like to pretend they’re big time. 
    • Yeah and the coach is gone. Whole bizarre situation here. We played them a couple of times at MTSU last few years. She was a player for sure. 
    • This whole situation is bonkers. You don’t just kick your star player off the team just because you heard them say the F word; the coach definitely had something against the player, or somebody definitely did. Also, nobody has brought up the idea that the school blackmailed the college to get the college to withdraw the scholarship offer, not to mention that the coach who kicked her off is no longer even with the program; they were fired. I think this is a pretty easy lawsuit. I don’t know if she should deserve that much money, but I think she should get enough money for a full-ride scholarship if she cannot get one after this situation.
    • 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.
