Pirates scored on almost every play. There was fierce wind that night. We kicked off so often and the ball kept falling off the Tee. Refs finally had Kicker Charles” Goodboy” Allen  get him a holder after it blew off the Tee half a dozen times. At one time the ref threw up his hands, as if to say, just kick it.

Believe it or not Sequatchie scored a Saftey early in the game for a 86 to 2 final. Legendary Coach Phillip Beene actually didn’t run up the score Sequatchie just could stop that Single Wing offense. The leading Fullback was just  “Knocking A Hole” so big even that  Dillard man could have scored on every play. Not a pass was thrown. 

Donnie Phipps, Rooster, Goodboy, Don Ray, David Hudson, all could knock a hole!

I watched that just before I saw that you posted it. The funny thing is, the last thing he said to me was exactly the same as what he said to Wes, only it was a good bit longer ago, before any of this was going on with him.

I always try my hardest and so far haven't missed a homecoming game since I've been out of school. I try to make it to as many games as I can, but sometimes situations come up that don't allow it, but it's always good talking with some classmates I went to school with that were grades ahead of me or behind me. You just never know when it's going to be your last game to watch the Pirates play. I saw Bob at the Oliver Springs game and never thought that would be the last time I saw him alive.

Saw him as well.  Spoke to him briefly. Had I known it would have been the last time, I'm not sure if I could have come up with the words to have thanked him.  Gonna take some time to process this.  Bob will be missed.  He's already missed.  

Go Pirates!!

    • Anyone know how the scrimmage at Central went?
    • I grew up watching Greene Devil Football since I could walk and still close with a lot of the coaches so should know my history pretty well lol.  Everything worked out the way it should have but firmly believe McCurry would have won some State Title if he wouldn't been let go (Greeneville still runs the same D he brought here and he let Ballard run the O and stayed out of it when it came to calling plays.  Greeneville was put out in the Semi's McCurry's last year against Maryville and the next year Greeneville stayed in 4a and was State Runner up playing were they were placed for the first time by the TSSAA.). It was definitely a McCurry and Ballard show that turned everything around along with the Community buying in and revamping the weight room and field house. Since Ballard got promoted to HC every Coach after him has been within the Greeneville Coaching staff because your right, they know what it takes to win a state championship.  Ballard was a master mine on O and what i think Greeneville has lacked since he left and let some Championships or making it to the Championship slip away over the last few years
    • Sounds like you know your area history well. Going back and looking the records were better than I thought but mostly still beating Upper East TN schools. Ballard sounds like he came/was promoted at the right time.    I do think it’s no coincidence that them keeping the HCs as guys who were former guys on the staff. Too many times schools want a “state championship” leveled coach from the outside but they don’t know the landscape. Promoting from within will help with less turnover and keep the program consistent.
