U.T. Martin would be the best location in west Tennessee.   To the best of my knowledge there has not been a state championship game played in west TN since the TSSAA quit having them at one of the two teams home field.  That is unacceptable.

They went to a bid selection. They send out requests for bids each contract cycle and the “best” bid given compensation and accommodations gets the contract. I 100% agree it should be centrally located (Nashville) to be the most fair it can be but no one in the Nashville or west has any interest in hosting it apparently. If UTM or Memphis or wherever doesn’t want it it’s not like you can force them or if UTC or Tech submit a better proposal what else would you do. I do think Chattanooga is not fair for west teams but we have 2.5 hour travel to some region games (by bus, imagine how long it takes me to hitchhike in heels!), 5 hours for a championship game would be fine by me. I just want the best atmosphere and venue for that weekend. MTSU was awful I agree and Tech field was in bad shape towards the end.

For the geographically challenged, Chattanooga is 3.5 hours from Johnson City.

Chattanooga is not a bad location.

Not gonna call it on a fumble scramble 

Obviously.  But the can and they should.  That boy was on his knees hand on that ball and perfectly still for 3-4 seconds before that thug charged into his helmet.  What kind of dumbazz are you to agree with that no call.

    • Now that wouldn’t surprise me a bit. That has been going on heavily since the days of Larry Kerr @ AC. One of the major reasons CC has never really had much at all, barring about 2 seasons in football. AC milks it dry.
    • Interesting how quite it is. Rumors are going around that Anderson County is being looked at by TSSAA for recruiting violations with the Campbell County transfers. 
    • I heard from a member of the teaching staff that there has been a dispute over use of the game field between football, and girls lacrosse team. Girls had a game and wanted to warm up and football coaches did want to leave. The football coaches came down hard with some bad vulgar language and the girls lacrosse backed down. What a classy act BHS athletics has become.
    • The lawsuit requests a jury trial. Sable Winfree has extremely competent legal representation. FYI - her lawyer represented the Warren County school system for years, and I believe he knows what constitutes a reasonable lawsuit.
