I don't guess I understand the issue. I have been deep supporter of every Coach Blackman has had; This time it just happens to be in my opinion that was he is not a good fit for the program at this time. and somehow the thought is I/ we are not going to support him. As the biggest Blackman fan on this site, it is baffling to think folks who don't have a dog in the fight have gotten so riled up by the ideal that a very loyal fan to the program is not overly excited about the choice. Nothing said about not supporting him or the program. 

The funniest thing about all this is some of the folks throwing a fit in this thread who had no clue who Tygard was,  the same ones slamming me for supporting him. Seems like it . is darned if you do darned if you don't . Most of these folks will crawl back in their shell or flip the switch midway through this next season, and by season 2 will ready to see him tarred and feathered regardless of his record at that point 

 

 

 

 

 

Totally agree. You can and will still support him while also having the opinion that he wasn’t the right hire. They’re not mutually exclusive.

Not riled up Mr. Blaze. And I’ll vouch 100% that you are the biggest Blackman supporter on this site and that I have no dog in this fight. In fact, I usually add the latter quote when I make a post like I did. Just adding a relevant example from an outsiders perspective. I hope the hire works out great for you guys. BTW, I remember, back when I used to go to the BlueCross Bowl at MTSU each year,that one particular year during Riverdale’s heyday, a man and his wife wearing Blackman shirts or jackets came in and sat a couple of rows in front of me. Could that have been you?

I wasn't directing that post at you directly, just in general. Good probability . At heart I am a true Blue Blaze fan, but the core I support all these kids in RuCo. and will continue to do so. I believe the most important thing you can do for the youth in your area is simply show up, They may never know your name , but to look in the bleachers and know that their effort matters, be it Football. baseball, soccer track, ROTC or underwater basket weaving I think it matters....

Underwater basket weaving? You go through BUDS Blaze45?

    • Crockett County's post is a beast and will keep them in a lot of games. They have a PG as well and a shooter or two. Gibson County didn't shoot well especially at the FT line missing about 12 FT's but our defense and ball pressure was the difference late in the game. They were the only team to beat us last year and their post was a big reason why. 
    • South Gibson is real long and plays a stingy defense. Crockett County has a a good team. Their post sets the tone for them. Very hard to score on. Dyersburg is loaded beating a really good South Side team. I do think Dyersburg is firmly at the top in West TN. Then you have a group that are good teams and can beat anyone on a given day. I would say South Gibson, Gibson County, Westview, South Side, USJ, Union City, Huntingdon and Crockett County are all in that next group. 
    • Great win for Dyersburg South Gibson has been impressive the two times I have seen them.  They have good length and play great defense.
    • Yet to see SGC in person but that’s a great win. They will make it to the ‘boro again this spring. Over in Jackson, Dyersburg beats South Side by 20 in a game where they led by as many as 24. Game was tight until Dburg blew the game open in the third quarter. I still have South Side penciled in for Murfreesboro. They have too much talent and Brent will have them ready for a run.
    • Crockett was a mirage. They entered today 80th out of 83 AAA teams in schedule strength.
