I have a feeling this is going to be overturned. The fact of the matter is the TSSAA approved this, not once, but twice!. Now if there were false documents or something involved (stating a divorce had taken place, for example) that'd be one thing. But I doubt that strongly. If I was a betting man, I'd say Gallatin wins the appeal and is back to 7-1.

I hope you are right FHSrebel27. But I do not think that the TSSAA or Ronnie Carter will admit fault. This is gonna be placed on the coaching staff and their lack of suppling enough info for the decision to be made.

 

I wish I knew more of the facts but I don't. I imagine that there will be a write-up in tommorrows paper about it.

 

By-the-way, I hate the current setup with all the state titles and what not but I still believe that the old Clinic Bowl for the the state title was a thing of beauty. Ronnie Carter put on a great environment for a state championship. That just shows that everything he does is not bad. That was all for charity. That has to be admired.

 

But this Gallatin 1-7 stuff just stinks!!!!!

I agree Rebel. I think that the TSSAA would be smart enough to double check court documents, especially if they were local. I think that gallatin wins this appeal and TSSAA eats CROW. Memebership dues will go up to cover what Gtown sues them for.

I'm thinking maybe a retractable dome stadium..... :rolleyes:

If "The Tennessean" has coverage on this story, their online edition will appear sometime after midnight - maybe around 1 AM or so. Anybody want to wait up with me?

I wish I could but tommorrow is gonna be a long day. Especially when the topic of conversation is going to be Gallatin and what will happen. Or did happen.

 

Thanks ya'll, I am sure we'll all have more to add tommorrow.

    • I've caught a few games this year. We have a decent team.   I'm hoping this group can qualify for state.  
    • Pirates baseball team is region 3 champs.  Host sectional Wednesday.   Go Pirates!!
    • I am interested in seeing how much they progress in year two under Fitz myself. I do believe they will improve but how much will be the question.
    • Pirates can make a run at the dance for sure.
    • I've always been a football fan first and then if you have a band that's awesome.No question that DB has one of the best bands in the country and the whole region should attend at least one DB game just to see their band. I don't know if Nick Saban could come to Kingsport and build a football program that could match the Dobyns Bennett band's success.That said,as mentioned before, a couple of things would have to change in order for the Tribe to just win a state championship on the field.Besides a program that starts from the peewee teams and goes all the way to J Fred with all coaches and weight training { in time }on the same page. Sometimes it also takes a little luck like the 1998 Vols .There are a lot of great athletes at a lot of big schools around the state and just because you want something doesn't mean your going to build a program like Alcoa has. Yes,start at the bottom and have guys that are quality coaches teaching at every level is 100% the first step. Parents can make it a lot easier by getting their young athletes into an early start with conditioning and weights as well when they are old enough to lift.If your son is a man in the weight room before he gets to DB , then it won't take a "Dobbs" coach to make him competitive against other schools athletes when it comes to strength.
