TE. Maryville is losing Jonah Arms but has Hudson Jamerson and Mack Serr coming back. 

OL. Maryville is losing Alex Boyd and Henry Chambers. Maryville has Brody Smith,Nash Stinnett and Nic Henderlight coming back. Also Landon Marcus had a start last year. He will be back. 

WR. Maryville is losing Casey Cobble,Nolan White and Britton Barrett. Colton Foust is coming back. Need some guys to step up.

K/P. Hudson Jamerson and Mack Serr  are back as punter and kickers.

DL. Losing Jonah Arms and Zach Hample. Ryan Henry and Mack Serr are back.

LB. Losing Matthew Covert,Sayer McNeilly and David Crawford. Jaxon Rutledge will be back. One to watch for will be Dax Cole.

Three Red Rebels made all state. Two will be back. 

Congrats to those guys-well deserved. I admit I’m more than a little surprised the RT wasn’t named as well. He has been a standout.

That was a slight. He's the leader.

Off topic, not football related, but the boys basketball team seems to be struggling more than I thought they would this year with all the returning talent. Didn't see the game, but the Bearden game last week was a blood bath looking at the box score. I know Bearden is really good this year, but that game was never competitive. Anybody have any insight on the struggles?

Definitely thought they would be near the top of the District again, but they got beat pretty handily by a mediocre West team last night. Not sure what the deal is. And agreed, I'll never understand the Coach West deal.

Last yrs team had a 6-9 team player who played a role without having to score. Guys like that are hard to replace in high school. Also had a 6-6 sr who played his role. Remember, there’s only one basketball.

He was sacrificed by the Great Woke God of Maryville High School to show their power and to push anyone else back that dare come fourth and challenge the new leader.

You're not wrong, but the 6'9 kid last year wasn't the focal point of their offense. Definitely helped rebounding and defending the paint, but they have two big post players this year as well. The Smith kid is strong and skilled. From seeing just a handful of games, it looks like to me the guard play has declined, besides Hazelbaker. He's s stud, but they're not getting hardly any production from the PG and other wing consistently. Not sure what's happened with the PG. He's been a stud the last two years, but has struggled mightily in a lot of games this year.

I do not disagree at all. The kid last year filled a similar to role to what Okpara fills for the Vols. And where would they be without him? I’m definitely not a basketball junkie, but it seems the other four guys need to understand the offense needs to go through the best scorer. Everybody is never the best scorer. Maybe it will just take them a little while longer to learn everyone’s roles. They are very talented for sure. Maybe the other teams have gotten better also?

I think the Maryville basketball team will eventually turn things around. Just too much talent out there not to. For what it’s worth, it’s better to be struggling now than when the playoffs start up. I’ll be really surprised if they don’t get things going by then. Basketball is a sport of momentum. All it takes is a few good wins, and you can get on a roll. You just never can tell when you’re dealing with High School kids. As an OR fan, I’d rather see them be good any day than Bearden, but that’s just me. Wish them the best.

And why on earth would they have gotten rid of the girls coach? That guy had y’all’s girls being one of the top programs in the Knoxville area. Strange, indeed.
