WesVLT Posted August 22, 2004 Report Share Posted August 22, 2004 I've got to go with Twitty on this one. BA will only play 4 JV games this year. There are less than 10 freshman that are likely to see action in the blowout games. I would much prefer that they play 7 or 8 games in a freshman schedule. Also, it would be tough for a Junior to watch a freshman get playing time in a blowout game. 825309414[/snapback] Only 4 JV games? That changes things a bit. I'd tend to agree with you guys in that case. I still think the freshmen should dress. BA has a special tradition, and I wouldn't refuse it to anyone. They can "pay their dues" in other ways.

Guest region4fan Posted August 22, 2004 Report Share Posted August 22, 2004 I guess when we can pick and choose what we get instead of relying on crooked re-zoning that only reaps us foreign speaking illegal aliens...............we'll talk.

I agree with Itzme that it is a big deal for the freshmen to dress. If nothing else, it is good for them to be able to experience the atmosphere. However, I would still like to see a separate schedule for the freshmen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest region4fan Posted August 22, 2004 Report Share Posted August 22, 2004 I think any real game experience that Frosh could get would beat standing on the sidelines all season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jek Posted August 22, 2004 Report Share Posted August 22, 2004 Itzme: One of the earlier posts made a slightly derogatory comment about the receiver core. I thought the passing game looked very good for the first game of the season. Kottas and Turner both had nice catches and yardage after the catch. What's your opinion?

How did the kicking game look? There were no punts but the kicking game was solid. Baker converted on all but one PAT (the other was a miss-handled snap). He also had a 29 yard field goal that had plenty of leg. Kick offs were decent and should improve with time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigDogDaddy Posted August 22, 2004 Author Report Share Posted August 22, 2004 (edited) If TSSAA wants to make rules they should make one to outlaw the "Fiiirrsstttt Dooowwwnnnn" nonsense. Brentwood and Brentwood Academy do that nonsense and I think its juvenile. If I ever hear it at Howard Gamble I'll cut the cord myself!! The Titans do it because First American(AmSouth) pays them hundreds of thousands of dollars to do it , but I'm sure Bud Adams cringes every time he hears it!
