Where is everybody? SS, Catswild , Boy from SI even Hitch. Well maybe not Hitch.  What's the story on the Cats? QB situation/ Know we got a running back and some receivers but anybody else?

I was going to wait until after the Fulton scrimmage.  Hope to catch a little practice today.  I'm still around!  Hard to tell about a team until after the hitting starts.

According to 5 Star Preps, there is a QB battle between Stansbury and Goins.  Garza, who started the last half of the year, is no longer on the team.  We have had some attrition from last year, but the team still looks pretty solid.  We'll know more for sure come Friday.

The fact is the secret city hired the wrong coach

 

 

We all know that 1414 loves 6% more than a supplement. So when interest rates drop 1414 will drop pigskin and devote full attention to showing his listings. That’s when rang goes home. We all know that he lives in Blount county, we read it on the T. Cummins would have been a secret city lifer, and y’all traded him for a rental.

Coach Rang is engaged to be married and they are building a house in Oak Ridge. But I have to admit I've had some of the same thoughts about  "When Derrick goes marching Home". Don't think it will happen though! Getting excited for this season to get started.

Great post. He may stay in the secret city. It’s a dream job for a lot of coaches. But FYI, learn how to spell Derek if you want to keep him. I sure do wish we would have hired him when we had the chance to.

I was over in Oak Ridge all day Saturday keeping an eye on a job we were doing just up from Jefferson Middle School but I did get a moment to run up Kentucky Avenue where the old school used to set and read the marker that said "Our Memory Garden" and another one that had Oak Ridge High School 1943-1951. As I looked around and thought to myself Mr. Rang may not want to come back home if he can get this running without anyone's interference. He is going to have the athletes there that Maryville don't. He is also going to get that town fired up over Oak Ridge Football like it was when Emory Hale was there. I don't have a clue what is going on at Maryville or even who is starting but I guess I'll have to wait until next week and get surprised when Oak Ridge and Maryville play each other in a scrimmage. If any of you guys from Oak Ridge come over to see the game please let us know where your setting, and please come over to the Maryville side and not set in those hot bleachers with the sun in your eyes it's always fun catching up with you all.

I hope you're right about Rang staying around because I'm hearing good things about him. Who would interfere with him? Hopefully nobody!

What you say about Rang going to Maryville might be a fact but he is building a house in OR while Cummins bought a house in West Knox after getting the OR job, so I'm not sure he would have been a "lifer".

Rang has everything in the world going for him right now and would be crazy to leave there for anywhere else. Maryville just don't have the athletes it once had plus the leadership in charge really don't give a rats azz about the football program. You might see a lot of Maryville fans loading up to come to Oak Ridge on Friday Nights if things at the top keep messing up over here.

    • A little confused.  What charter/prep schools made it to state in Baseball?  
    • Fortuitously encountering Clint amidst the ambience of Goodyear this morning sparked an impromptu yet intellectually stimulating conversation, wherein we engaged in a rigorous assessment of prospective candidates for the esteemed role of head football coach. Our discourse, characterized by its spontaneity and depth, led to the formulation of astute observations and discerning judgments regarding the suitability of various individuals for this pivotal position. Allow me to elucidate the fruits of our collaborative contemplation: This commentary endeavors to offer a discerning articulation of my subjective viewpoint, emphasizing a conscientious commitment to maintaining impartiality and refraining from any semblance of derogation directed towards individuals.  Those who possess meritorious qualifications for the esteemed head coaching role, delineated without hierarchical precedence, include: Rennard Woodmore, an esteemed alumnus of the Yellow Jackets, presents a magnificent pedigree, having held prominent positions in head coaching capacities across various regions. His pivotal role as a coordinator for teams contending for state championships further enhances his stature in the realm of football leadership. Kyle Gregory, erstwhile adorned in the resplendent gold insignia, though lacking direct head coaching experience, brings to the fore his invaluable insights garnered as a coordinator for esteemed teams, showcasing an acute understanding of the requisites for triumph whilst attired in the esteemed purple and gold regalia. Steven Jackson, whose contributions transcended mere clipboard duties under the tutelage of Kevin Creasy, emerges as an exceptional candidate for Trousdale County. His prior tenure and triumphs as an assistant coach underscore his suitability for the role. The sole drawback lies in his lack of affiliation with Trousdale County as an alumnus. Brandon Eden's extensive tenure within the chronicles of Trousdale County football, spanning a significant portion of its State Championships, coupled with his successful stints as a coordinator across diverse locales, underscores his candidacy despite a dearth of direct head coaching experience at the high school level. Davy Cothron, while beset by a modest playing career, has emerged as a luminary in offensive strategy, drawing parallels to the transformative appointment of Barker in 2015, thereby warranting consideration for his proven acumen in this realm. Joshua Hackett, notwithstanding his non-alumnus status, has left an indelible imprint across Middle Tennessee, distinguished by his adept curation of formidable defensive units as a coordinator at Watertown, albeit without direct head coaching experience. Kevin Creasy, the epitome of coaching prowess, merits an offer irrespective of his current inclinations, his unparalleled capacity to secure victories transcending geographical and institutional bounds, potentially extending to a role as Director of Schools should it align with his aspirations. Conversely, individuals who have not demonstrably earned the mantle of head coaching, enumerated without sequential precedence, encompass: Brad Waggoner David Barker Paul Pitts Jeremy Pruitt Clint Satterfield Robbie Atwood Wesley Satterfield Ben Johnson BJ West Whom do you all deem most fitting to assume the mantle of the next coach, and what rationale informs your choice? Conversely, whom do you perceive as ill-suited for the role, and what underpins your reasoning for their exclusion?
    • He's a Clinton fan.  But I wouldn't admit that either.  
    • Their any schedule out their for team camp?
    • This sums it all up to perfection.
