It will be a tall task to beat Greeneville at home. Upperman wont be intimidated but will they have enough athletes on the field to win?  I still say one year away from the State title game but would take it a year early if it came. 

Playing Elizabethton and Greeneville will give the coaches an idea of what it takes to push through. I’m sure they are better prepared for this game than they were last time when they played Betsy. There’s no substitute for that big game experience. They are were we were after moving up in class in 2017. We had good teams in 17 and 18 but ran into the two best teams Greeneville has ever had and two really good Anderson County teams. The coaches realized it was going to take more. The players were challenged. And they made a commitment. Player ran 6:30am workouts started every morning before school the week following their second round loss to AC. We had 2020 pegged as our year. It came early in 2019. So, you never know. The old saying is true. “That’s why we play the game!”

Good stuff Dave! I love the Upperman fans on here. Not cocky but confident. Probably reflects team and program attitude. I think we are developing Quadrant 2 friends and like minded football folk. Looking forward to a great game Friday.

Just watched some of the Greeneville vs Anderson game on YouTube. They look to be playing at a totally different level than what the Upperman vs Macon game was played at last week.

Will Greenville have a live stream of the game? Does Grassroots cover it? I’m hoping Uppercumberland Reporter will be able to stream there but if not I need a back up plan

Not this week Crow. I contacted Grassroots and they are not. NFHS is it at this time. We are not fans of NFHS. WGRV does a great job even though they are the hometown radio. I just go to Coacht scoreboard and go to our game.

I have NFHS but they are typically really bad quality with no audio. That’s kind of a bummer.

JohnnyRay, you must be new to Upperman football the GOAT is Blake Metzgar! Check out his stats then you can edit your comment. Go Bees!!!

Thats not the goat. Until someone has 74 tds in a season, 2700 pass and 2600 rushing in a season, scores 9 tds in a playoff game, and has 125 career tds....the goat will be Conner "Sunshine" York.

I actually do know math quite well.  The moral of this story is after watching the games you all have played.  The kids play hard and to the end.  But, when u are  playing 2a and 3a schools as non conference games you should win.  This Friday may the best prepared  team win.  Go Devils!!!

Lebanon is 6a

    • A little confused.  What charter/prep schools made it to state in Baseball?  
    • Fortuitously encountering Clint amidst the ambience of Goodyear this morning sparked an impromptu yet intellectually stimulating conversation, wherein we engaged in a rigorous assessment of prospective candidates for the esteemed role of head football coach. Our discourse, characterized by its spontaneity and depth, led to the formulation of astute observations and discerning judgments regarding the suitability of various individuals for this pivotal position. Allow me to elucidate the fruits of our collaborative contemplation: This commentary endeavors to offer a discerning articulation of my subjective viewpoint, emphasizing a conscientious commitment to maintaining impartiality and refraining from any semblance of derogation directed towards individuals.  Those who possess meritorious qualifications for the esteemed head coaching role, delineated without hierarchical precedence, include: Rennard Woodmore, an esteemed alumnus of the Yellow Jackets, presents a magnificent pedigree, having held prominent positions in head coaching capacities across various regions. His pivotal role as a coordinator for teams contending for state championships further enhances his stature in the realm of football leadership. Kyle Gregory, erstwhile adorned in the resplendent gold insignia, though lacking direct head coaching experience, brings to the fore his invaluable insights garnered as a coordinator for esteemed teams, showcasing an acute understanding of the requisites for triumph whilst attired in the esteemed purple and gold regalia. Steven Jackson, whose contributions transcended mere clipboard duties under the tutelage of Kevin Creasy, emerges as an exceptional candidate for Trousdale County. His prior tenure and triumphs as an assistant coach underscore his suitability for the role. The sole drawback lies in his lack of affiliation with Trousdale County as an alumnus. Brandon Eden's extensive tenure within the chronicles of Trousdale County football, spanning a significant portion of its State Championships, coupled with his successful stints as a coordinator across diverse locales, underscores his candidacy despite a dearth of direct head coaching experience at the high school level. Davy Cothron, while beset by a modest playing career, has emerged as a luminary in offensive strategy, drawing parallels to the transformative appointment of Barker in 2015, thereby warranting consideration for his proven acumen in this realm. Joshua Hackett, notwithstanding his non-alumnus status, has left an indelible imprint across Middle Tennessee, distinguished by his adept curation of formidable defensive units as a coordinator at Watertown, albeit without direct head coaching experience. Kevin Creasy, the epitome of coaching prowess, merits an offer irrespective of his current inclinations, his unparalleled capacity to secure victories transcending geographical and institutional bounds, potentially extending to a role as Director of Schools should it align with his aspirations. Conversely, individuals who have not demonstrably earned the mantle of head coaching, enumerated without sequential precedence, encompass: Brad Waggoner David Barker Paul Pitts Jeremy Pruitt Clint Satterfield Robbie Atwood Wesley Satterfield Ben Johnson BJ West Whom do you all deem most fitting to assume the mantle of the next coach, and what rationale informs your choice? Conversely, whom do you perceive as ill-suited for the role, and what underpins your reasoning for their exclusion?
    • He's a Clinton fan.  But I wouldn't admit that either.  
    • Their any schedule out their for team camp?
    • This sums it all up to perfection.
