Yes honestly they have no real competition and this year it’s mainly Cloudland. Greenback is down and OZ may be their toughest game they have in the regular season in region play. 

The honest truth the biggest thorn in CF side the last 5-7 years has been Greenback. They have gotten them in the regular season and playoffs more than anyone. Gordonsville got them twice but that was regular season and CF thumped Gville good in 2019 regular season. 

They sure did. We had a lot of freshman/sophomores playing at that time

Then when those kids were upperclassmen we returned the favor

I’m not a Coalfield fan just an outsider that’s been apart of many many Coalfield vs Oneida games and have grown to respect them from those games. The way that program is ran is ran the right way.

In my opinion it’s coaching mostly. They scheme and plan better than most in 1A. I’d give them the nod in coaching in region 1 & 2 small A ball. Maybe up to 3A except Alcoa but honestly I don’t know if the current Alcoa staff or any other staff regardless of classification could produce any better results with what coalfield has to work with. I’m not a fan of coalfield at all but I do respect what they’ve consistently accomplished there.

What I think is the best part is how after the Henry’s sadly passed away the coaching has stayed the same. It’s almost as if they are still right with them every Friday night.

Yes Napier is doing a good job managing the program and keeping a good staff together. Honestly I expected a big drop off him being a young first time HC but he’s done a very good job. I’m still not a coalfield fan, I did mention that right?

Nope wish they’d lose every game they play by 100 but I do give credit where it’s due.

Same for Greenback as well right??

No if I’m being honest I don’t actually feel that way about coalfield or greenback. I do wish they’d lose one game a year by 100 (when we play them) but honestly I don’t wish any ill will for either program. They’re both small schools that regularly smack around larger schools (like us) and more often than not field a quality team. If I’m honest I respect both a lot and wish them success as long as they’re not lined up across from us. The “hope they lose by 100” is more smack talk BS than anything really.

This should be a pretty good game. I’d give Coalfield the advantage though but a few scores.
