Not true. they were at the bottom of the heap, but he built it with players from different places. Eric Locke ring a bell? 

Juicy was from Cookeville. Juicy didn't just happen to get a job in Rutherford Co. Also, you failed to mention Rutherford Co was open zoning back then, so it was simple to just go to whoever was the best team. 

Agree.  That above post was far from true.

I doubt anyone will surpass his win total.   He is in his 70"s and still doing it. As for Creasy inheriting a well-oiled machine at Oakland, couldn't be further from the truth.

Not saying nor did I say a well oiled machine. Simply said Oakland was on the right track. And they were under TM. Creasy has obviously taken them to another level and credit to him.

KC makes Rankin look like rookie with zoning.

Anyone know what Gary's record is right now. Just curious how close he is to 500 wins. Love to have seen him do this at Alcoa. This is like Hank Aaron getting traded to the Montreal Expos the week before he brakes Babe Ruth's record. 

As of July 2nd, 486 victories in 42 years

    • Sheriff stirrin’ the ole pot, as usual. Death, taxes, and the Sheriff stirrin’ the pot are a given in life!
    • Didn't misinterpret any thing. He was throwing our players under the bus saying they werent trying and then made a comment like Westview's jersey was in GC and Union City's head. My comment was that Westview has tons of talent especially with the transfers that have came in. Sure wasn't we choked out with the talent they had last year. I don't know if he is a South Gibson Fan or a Westview Fan but this is a message board and I for one am going to defend my school. 
    • 4&6?  Please break down AE's schedule and tell me how you get 6 losses.  I'm interested in hearing this..
    • You have sucked ever since he left, like UT and Fulmer
    • Correct me if I'm wrong Guru, but I interpreted what you were saying as some Westview opponents having a mental block to overcome because of the name on the uniform.  Much like Duke or Kentucky in Men's college hoops. I do think you're wrong about Gibson Co. being that way. They are Duke's North Carolina. No fear there! Think Pioneer misinterpreted what you were saying and lashed out with the "transfer rhetoric." Anyway back to the present, I believe the parity in the district will be good this year, much like the days when Obion Co. battled those two in district.
