Stanton Stevens couldn't coach his way out of a wet paper bag.

 

1) Scott Meadows - William Blount

2) Steve Brewer - Sevier County

3) Gary Householder - Seymour

4) Bill Young - Christian Academy of Knoxville

5) Jeff Wattenbarger - Cumberland County (if that counts as East TN)

 

These five men would make the best upper-level college head coaches.

You cannot have a legitimate list of the "best" head coaches in East Tennessee and not include George Quarles of Maryville and Graham Clark of Dobyns-Bennett...

Period

 

Roll Tribe Roll

Quarles and Clark were left off for a reason.

 

Quarles-

1) Took an already winning program, let's see him take Midway or Heritage to the Murf'.

2) Players secretly hate him.

3) Has a huge discipline problem.

 

Clark

1) Has never taken his team to play on the turf of MTSU.

2) Plays in a seriously weak region.

3) Also has large discipline problems.

i dont see where you find that quarles has a problem with discipline, give me an example of when this has been a problem, in all occasions that i can think of quarles has done everything that he should have done in all disciplinary situations, and im sure all the other coaches you have named arent loved by all of their players, so i feel that is an unfair statement

1. Thats true. But they are still a team that can play with anyone, any year, with what I take as below overall talent. Clark plays good team ball and is very disciplined, thats why they do so well with what they have. Overall, there are very few major prospects that come from DB football

2. Overall Region 1 5A is weak top to bottom. But, you always have a Jeff Co, Sevier Co, and Science Hill that can be pretty tough. Sevier Co won the 5A state championship so the best team or teams in Region 1 5A can play with anyone.

3 It is obvious that you have no knowledge of Clark's coaching methods. He basically told our best player last year before the quarterfinals to serve the punishmet handed down to him or leave, Clark does not back down. Most of our passing offense was designed for this player and he was always double teamed, and still took over any game he wanted to. In other words, nobody walks all over Clark, nobody will misbehave without punishment. In fact DB is know for playing with class.

 

And again Tezcatlipoca, you are wrong. And again, you are always negative about any team that you don't like. I still want to know what your team is. If it is William Blount, you have no room to talk.

 

 

Oh and one more point. Meadows is an awesome coach. I think he is a great guy and he is nimber 1 on your list. But, Clark is not. How do you explain the fact that Meadows (with more talent on theis past years team than DB) can't beat Clark. I mean everyone had Jeff Co as number #1 in Region 1 5a due to their returning talent. Again, Clark is good at using the talent he has, and that talent will never be as high as Riverdale and similar schools. I mean look at the schools around DB, most are not that great, same talent, just good coaching and good team ball at DB and that is why Clark is worth his weight in gold.

Now, explain how Meadows is number 1, but can't beat Clark with more talent on his own field. We are all waiting. Clark is 3-0 vs Meadows.

1) "Took an already winning program"......Good point thecatlicksahola, Murvul was hotter than a $4 dollar pistol the first 4 games in 2000, at 0-4. Ol' GQ took tha Rebs to tha' "Murf'" that year. The only time ever in the history of the TSSAA, a team started 0-4, won 11 in a row and a gold ball.

 

2) "Players secretly hate him"........They sure do. That's why they have such a small squad. Last count, I believe there is something like 145 in the program. I wished the players hated him more, like Vince Lombardi's players hated him.

 

3) "Has a huge discipline problem.".......Yeah, but if that gets too huge they don't play anymore. I wanted all those discipline problems play at Central last year, but they didn't. I also wanted to see an all-state RB play his senior season at MHS. GQ has lost control. I know more than GQ. But he is still 63-9, with 3 gold footballs.

 

825 Lawrence.

 

Go Rebs.

    • Shopping? His family is loaded and he's 6'6 I'm pretty sure he could start anywhere in upper East TN,So no need to shop. Word is Witten got caught trying to work him out on campus and some 7 on 7 while playing athletics for Sullivan East. Word got around pretty quick and Someone turned them into TSSAA.
    • Quick update on Jacob -  Jacob celebrated his 16th birthday at Vanderbilt on Tuesday and has been in decent spirits.  His sense of humor has begun to show as he was visited by many friends.  He is swallowing a lot better now and has eaten some of his favorites (Chik-Fil-A and Five Guys).   He is getting prepared to head to Atlanta to the Shepherd Center first thing tomorrow morning.  His family has been waiting on insurance approval. In case you dont know the Shepherd Center it a world class facility and supposedly one of the best in the country for spinal injury rehab.  Praying for perfect results there. Considering the circumstances, Jacob is in decent spirits.  He has some reflexive movement in his legs which I think is probably a very positive sign.  Don't read too much into that just yet as there is no telling what the real prognosis is... just hopeful that is good thing.  I am really just happy that it seems like he has a punchers chance of getting something back.  He is a strong young man and very determined so I think he will fight as hard as he can in physical therapy while down in Atlanta. More than one of you has asked me about an address to send donations.  I know GoFundMe isn't for everyone.  If you want to go that route, you can make a check to "Blackman Wrestling Club" and we will pass anything received directly to the Kinderdines.   Jacob Kinderdine c/o Blackman Wrestling 4836 Trevino Court Murfreesboro, TN  37128 Also, want to thank everyone who has donated so far.  Jacobs dad will take a month off work and stay in Atlanta with him.  They need to learn how to take care of him and do home therapy work..... and surely Jacob will be glad his dad can be there.  All that could not happen without you all.  Depending on what happens, they will probably end up doing some home remodeling in order to accommodate Jacob at their home.  Thanks again. Here's a pic I lifted from Facebook of Jacob on Oxy talking to his Uncle.  LOL
