Making the playoffs the very first year with mainly 10th and 11th graders and some that have never played football in their entire life is a surprise cosidering how Tellico Plains ran them off the field the first game. I'm positive this game won't be pretty but looking back at other start up schools and their 1st. year Eagleton actually done quiet well.

Did Eagleton Academy draw away athletes from Maryville?  I was surprised to see Maryville struggling this season. 6-4 would be good for most teams but not for them. but then I was also surprised to see them beat Alcoa.

The main school it's going to hurt his Heritage. The kids that are not getting any playing time at either Alcoa or Maryville may end up there if they want to play. I do know of one kid from Maryville on that team.

Maybe we will get lucky Pujo and it will grow so fast they will be in 3A before the next classification is set

Aren't they land locked in a bit?  Can't grow?  @BarneySox2007

Didn't I read that they are looking at a max of 105/110  per class?  If so, that's 2A classification every year.

Check out our pregame interview when we played them. Our media guys interviewed one of their admin or someone, not a coach. Our media guys asked him specifically what they planned to keep their enrollment and he gave a straight forward answer that they plan to cap enrollment at 410-415 if I recall correctly. They’re not jumping to 3A but they’re gonna flirt with the line from time to time.

Well my bad. I went to find you a link and realized it was no longer available. Our “administrators” decided last year I believe they would only allow broadcast to happen if the full game was only left up for a period of time, I believe a week, then it had to come down. Now there’s only a 6 minute highlight reel available. Sorry for the bad intel.

No problem.  I know I've read that information somewhere.  Thanks.

    • Won't happen. College coaches will back the coach every time and it cost this young lady her senior season. Looks like the player may be right on this one. School let her  go after one season. This stuff happens more than you think. 
    • “No college is going to offer a scholarship to a player that is kicked off of the team.” For language? I’m not seeing that as a dealbreaker. 
    • Why did the coach get rehired after she was let go as an assistant by the former Warren County coach and the current AD?? Is that accurate?? I am very familiar with situations like this. Suprised lawsuits haven't happend before. If the coach unfairly let the player go, I think she has a shot because it cost her a scholarship. No college is going to offer a scholarship to a player that is kicked off of the team. Not going to happen. There are bad hires like this a bunch and kids are treated unfairly by coaches that can't coach a lick and have super long ropes somehow. Amazing how some of these coaches get hired and keep their job. 
    • I am going to assume you are not a lawyer, and most reasonable lawyers would not say the lawsuit has a zero percent chance in court. I agree with you that a coach has the ability to dismiss anyone from a team. However, Ms. Winfree was never presented with the opportunity to present her witnesses and have them tell the coaches and administrators what they heard. A lawyer could better explain the lawsuit and the grounds to you. Before you start making wild assumptions about the lawsuit, would it be too much to ask that you do a little legal research first? The lawsuit is dealing with due process, loss of property, and defamation.   You can read the lawsuit here: https://bdnewsletter.files.wordpress.com/2024/04/doc-1-complaint-filed-4-18-2024.pdf  
    • The administration took the path of backing the coach and whispering to people that the kid was a problem. The reality is that the kid was never a problem on a team or classroom. The player says she has witnessed who back her not saying the f-word.  Why did the coach make that story up and other stories? I am not Sigmund Freud and do not have an answer for the ex=-coach's behavior..
