I just know that ohs is god awful in football. They were 6A when I was there and were really good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MCKees Posted October 4, 2023 Report Share Posted October 4, 2023 I’m not saying I have an opinion one way or another. Hamilton County rezoning allowing kids opportunity to go outside their area has probably not helped. The “affluent” population in Ooltewah may have been going to private’s anyway but this has probably increased an exodus. Our society segregated itself in a lot of ways. Economic status and race are unfortunately some of those Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Economic status and race are unfortunately some of those I won’t say names but there are many god football players that were zoned for ohs but didn’t go there. In all honesty I don’t blame them. In all honesty Ooltewah is a crap show of a football program right now. Since the pool stick incident they haven’t been the same in all their sports. I will be at the Rhea county and Ooltewah game I will be doing some scouting and feedback of some of the coaching and etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And let’s face it there are a lot of well off people money wise in Ooltewah. They can afford to send their kids to private schools (without scholarships) and that is every bit their right to do so. But yea u are right the basketball incident was very unfortunate and doesn’t reflect what 99% of the kids are about Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ooltewah has had good teams since EH. Its coaching, prior to the current coaching staff, the coach that came from North Carolina was successful. Ooltewah has talent. If you’ve been to ooltewah game, the players sometimes don’t show effort and are just not in the right spots with busted plays. That’s 100 percent coaching they indeed have players....and a couple jimmy and joes....not enuff but there.....they were winnin a few more would have stayed....enuff to beat top of region????...Booger thinkin they could be competin for the region now....not winnin it, but challengin it......overall philiosiphy and culture could be comprimisin it Booger just sayin Edited October 5, 2023 by Booger Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
