The talk here in Athens this week is about the tremendous oppurtinity that our football team has in front of them. You must first understand we almost always have a competitive football team even though we may not have the best athletes. Our program has never gotten the respect I think it should get, maybe because we have never won a state championship( several times region champs). Our teams year in and year out are competitive and always play a tough nose syle of football. With our new head coach Erik Hutchins that trend continues but he has added a passing game that we have not had in the past, this is waht gives us our balance. In the past teams have put 8-9 players within 5 yards of the football and dared us to pass. Now teams can't do that because we can throw the ball, now I don't mean we are the "Fun & Gun" but we are efficient.

I think DB is a good football team and a great place to play football but our team will not be afraid to compete. In fact our kids are excited about the oppurtinity to show that they are indeed a good football team.

My fault on the bad info. on Holland. I was told he had actually previously been in Florida. You know know how bad info can go (sorry). I'm not trying to talk smack, but you have to see where I'm coming from. I know Friday is our chance to prove ourselves, but you DB fans have got to admit if I were posting some of the messages that you all are you would be a little upset. That's just passion for the game. So, with all that being said good luck Friday night.

 

 

P.S. By the way, there is some kind've illness going around here in McMinn co. There has been an excessive amount of students absent from school, including some key football players. I just ask that you keep these students in your prayers.

MCHSGoTribe you are correct about the illness going around and we have been fighting this for about a week. I have spoken to two of the players that have been out and they are fealing better and hopefully are @ school today if not they should be @ practice.

I realize your point about the cherokees not getting any respect but DB is a class act and they are smart enough to know that McMinn has a good team and that this should be a good game.

All I need to know is are all of the cherokee fans invited to Big Ed's if we are fortunate enough to beat DB. We sure would like another chance to show OR we are a better football team than when we played you guys in week #6.

We must beat JC first, then sure tribe fan you can drive to Kingsport to eat pizza, would love to have you.

91statechamp you are sadly mistaken because if everything goes according to plan Jeff Co. will be playing in Athens next Friday night againist the cherokees. Know being the gracious host that we are we would happily invite you to dine with us or maybe would even leave you a pass @ the gate for free admisson.

I believe that OR is a fantastic team but so is Jeff Co. and it would be a great stiry line next week. Jefferson County plays againist its former offensive cordinator and Jeff Co. alum.

Good luck OR you are playing againist in my opinion the best team in TN.

No the best team in Tennessee is probably Lincoln Co. or Maryville. And I wish you the best of luck, but I want an OR DB rematch, no disrespect to your program.But you guys go down 28-14,sorry!!!!

    • Never in my life have I seen a team in a scrimmage against their own defense look so lost and confused. The defense didn’t look much better, the coaching staff can’t keep their anger together, not only with the players but also with their other coaches. I feel awful for those players. None of them look like they wanted or should’ve been out there, but for the grown men on the sidelines acting like fools, it's just embarrassing to the Farragut name and reputation. I now see why they chose not to live stream this on their YouTube channel.
    • We could sure use some math teachers country wide. Ever go into a store or restaurant and the bill comes to $9.97 and you give them a ten dollar bill and 2 pennies because you wanted a nickle back and then the meltdown starts and the next thing two more people have to come and help figure it out and the place comes to a complete halt. I see this everyday and it's a sad representation of all these schools allowing these kids out the door to get shortchanged the rest of their life. 
    • I like the Pirates chances. I’ll be there as soon as work allows.
    • Stars, I heard we were searching far and wide for some math teachers. Any chance their kids bench press or 40 times are getting checked? LOL I’ve heard good things from 825.  
    • I think it was expected. “Bad” luck I guess to get a couple difference maker QBs in the same class. I thought the decision was made a little early myself, but they were struggling offensively last year.  I assume the running quarterback alco had last year would be a senior this fall, and the transfer would start the following two years in addition to getting a ton of playing time this year. Maybe he waits two yrs, but I doubt it. The kid is good. So is the one who stayed.
