William Blount 2023

I was very critical of William Blount's football program and coaches after last year, so I wanted to make sure I came on and praised the boy's basketball team for an exceptional season so far and they are still playing! They've beaten Bearden 4 times this season after losing 40 in a row to them. That's no small feat. They play at Karns tonight for the region and a trip to sectionals. Go Govs! And let's hope the basketball team's amazing season can breed a culture of winning that bleeds over into football and other sports.

The final possession of that basketball game against Karns last night was something else. We were down 3 with the ball and a chance to tie with a 3-ball in the final seconds. Then Karns intentionally fouled our guy with the ball - which made sense - and they literally knocked the guy over in the process right in front of the ref and no foul was called. That was sorry and that was just one of many questionable things that were and weren't called in the game. Any how, it was still a great game and hopefully we can get a more even officiating crew in Kingsport. Go Govs!

The only possible win is Union County and that will be toss up right now. This program has dropped to an all time low and may be there for a while until feeder system is developed. They hung onto Shad to long which the effects will be felt for a while down the road. Love to be wrong but don't think I am.

I agree with Barn. The wins look sparse. Amazing how things have changed since the last win against f’n hairtage. They gotta be close to reaching the bottom. Maybe they can hit and bounce up some.

Some programs hit the bottom but I'm not so sure this is the bottom as a coma on life support. Like I said Shad stayed to long and wasn't committed or wouldn't pulled all the shenanigans like a week off during fall break while applying for every opening coming and going among other things. That's why we all gave WB so much grief on here  hoping he would get the hint and leave because it was evident no one was calling him down on it. The difference between Robert Reeves and Shad is one is a class act and the other is a Flim Flam Man. I think Robert is going to have a hard time and nothing against him but it may break an older man into with the shape this program is in waiting for the feeder system to start bearing fruit when it's actually not even started blooming yet.

    • hey goat! how’s monterey looking this year?! 
    • several people actually. they said “snoball, do you know who railbird81 is on coacht?” I said, “never heard of her.” they said, “you ought to check it out they’re getting fired up on there like the old days.” well, you can imagine my disappointment when I came here expecting sharp, witty banter and all i found was more akin to toddlers slap fighting. and what looks like 1 guy/gal talking to themselves with multiple accounts.
    • Shopping? His family is loaded and he's 6'6 I'm pretty sure he could start anywhere in upper East TN,So no need to shop. Word is Witten got caught trying to work him out on campus and some 7 on 7 while playing athletics for Sullivan East. Word got around pretty quick and Someone turned them into TSSAA.
    • Quick update on Jacob -  Jacob celebrated his 16th birthday at Vanderbilt on Tuesday and has been in decent spirits.  His sense of humor has begun to show as he was visited by many friends.  He is swallowing a lot better now and has eaten some of his favorites (Chik-Fil-A and Five Guys).   He is getting prepared to head to Atlanta to the Shepherd Center first thing tomorrow morning.  His family has been waiting on insurance approval. In case you dont know the Shepherd Center it a world class facility and supposedly one of the best in the country for spinal injury rehab.  Praying for perfect results there. Considering the circumstances, Jacob is in decent spirits.  He has some reflexive movement in his legs which I think is probably a very positive sign.  Don't read too much into that just yet as there is no telling what the real prognosis is... just hopeful that is good thing.  I am really just happy that it seems like he has a punchers chance of getting something back.  He is a strong young man and very determined so I think he will fight as hard as he can in physical therapy while down in Atlanta. More than one of you has asked me about an address to send donations.  I know GoFundMe isn't for everyone.  If you want to go that route, you can make a check to "Blackman Wrestling Club" and we will pass anything received directly to the Kinderdines.   Jacob Kinderdine c/o Blackman Wrestling 4836 Trevino Court Murfreesboro, TN  37128 Also, want to thank everyone who has donated so far.  Jacobs dad will take a month off work and stay in Atlanta with him.  They need to learn how to take care of him and do home therapy work..... and surely Jacob will be glad his dad can be there.  All that could not happen without you all.  Depending on what happens, they will probably end up doing some home remodeling in order to accommodate Jacob at their home.  Thanks again. Here's a pic I lifted from Facebook of Jacob on Oxy talking to his Uncle.  LOL
