I had 49 teams to pick from and the last 7 or 8 will give you total ALE to try and figure out and this was one of the last 2 or 3. I know Meigs has owned them in the past but McMinn has gotten better and I figured this was going to be the game they finally got this monkey off their back. I am really shocked last years coach left them after one season to jump into the dumpster fire at Sweetwater and possibly destroy his resume to the point of no return. Great job for the coaches at Meigs County for rebuilding a team that had a lot of kids lost to graduation the year before. Your right not an upset but a wake up call about Meigs County.

Spot on sir!

I figured simback would do good over there. He was a really good quarterback for mcminn county in 2011 and 2012.  Figured hed be a pretty good coach, think back around 2013 he was gonna go on and play college football but got a career ending injury off the field that altered his path in life so I'm glad he is able to at least coach all these years later. If mcminn county ever got rid of cagle I could see them courting Nathan as a coach. Usually seems like they always want someone connected to the program to step up into head coach position

I think sometimes going outside the programs is a better option, just sayin,. Meadows, Reid, Rankin, now Nix at Alcoa, all have carried the weight & torch of a championship team. Your thoughts! I’m just asking & commenting. Not looking for an argument just thoughts here, you know your program.

Nah I get it. I actually a 100%, agree with you, I was just saying the most likely course of action in that situation, not that I necessarily agree with, but mcminn is definetly a good ole  boy program that would definetly favor an insider over an outsider. It's not impossible, I just think if simbeck does well and things fell on hard times hear after a few years I could see them courting simbeck for a coaching position

Truly understand, but I hate to see these programs suffer because of it. Sad.

Alot of these towns and counties will never change honestly. Cagles resume as coach isn't all that bad couple of bad years, but good out weighs the bad.

I totally agree that a lot of communities will not change,& that’s ok, & they seem to be ok with it, but they are the first ones to start crying foul, when kids want to transfer out to a winning program or to a winning coach who can get them to the next level. Your average player isn’t going to want to go because they don’t want to play at the next level, but your really good athletes want better & want to be coached up. I agree it’s a messed up system, & T$$AA isn’t going to anything about it, but to your point, I could see them courting him at some point.

Hey Barneysox!!! Lots of teams open this week  week 8 but seems like none have any sack to play Alcoa.      Cocke County,Anderson.Co, Cherokee,Webb are all open

Looking at my list and I have 41 games for this Week 8 coming up. More than I thought would be on here.
