Also, congrats to both the boys and the girls for clenching their respective District Championships and a trip to the region tournament.

I can’t get over how much the girls have improved. They’re really hitting on all cylinders. The boys are slowly but surely adjusting to playing without Brennan, which has been nice to see. The emergence of the Sophomore CT (I don’t wanna misspell his last name, so using his initials instead) has been nice to watch. That guy is going to be really good.

Well, having the gang all back sure helps.  I think the opposing coaches are having a hard time defensing us.  Right now they are tripling #5 inside, but that frees up everyone else.  Defensively we are much, much better.  However, need to be if we want to go back to State.  East Tennessee is deep this year.

I would agree that the boys are finding their way without Brennen.  Ray Ray and Caden are playing much better and not rushing their shots.  I like our chances in the District the way we are playing the past 2 games.

He and the freshman backup PG are darn good for kids. They keep gaining confidence, that's good depth for post season

I think Oak Ridge will cruise to another district title. But when the region rolls around, gotta get their big boy shorts on to advance.

In all fairness, all the rest of the region does too. Any of the top teams can beat the other on any given night. OR has as good a shot as any of the rest.

    • Problem with DB football goes beyond coaching. Like Waco said. Thr band is the main focus of their community and school. They have the resources to be a championship level team. Guarantee Ballard or Witten could have them nationally relevant at some point but everyone down to peewee would have to buy in and at DB we all know that would never happen. 
    • I know the RB from OR he’s fast and has good hands. Is good on special teams also. Didn’t want to play defense over to the Ridge.
    • Lieutenant Flip flops is on a roll. #1 recruiter in Anderson Co, fo-sho.
    • Has there been any effort to contact college coaches other than Trevecca? 
    • 5star put out and article about the QB competition for Clinton like they have 9 other schools. They listed a QB that was previously on Powell’s roster last year. He was the Frosh that could throw great wearing number 5. He was not mentioned as a transfer.  HC was quoted in getting two running back transfers one being from OR that has been mentioned on these boards as well as another from TKA.  I had heard about these and more transfers. It is impressive that Clinton is able to steal away from the recruiter at Powell.  I wonder if the issue with the principal will change that or open the gates even more.
