Went to the Riverdale/Cookeville game tonight and was kinda suprised at the final score, to tell you the truth, I thought that it would have been worse than it was. This does not seem to be the same Riverdale team that I saw back in week 3, especially on offense, they just didn't look as crisp as they did then. But they might have had an off night, or, the Cookeville defense may have been better than they thought it was. That said, they are still better than they were last year, and they handled OR at OR last year,( And we were there), and at this point I don't see them letting OR come in and beat them at home. I saw quite a few empty seats on the Riverdale side tonight and that I don't understand, but there were a lot of people standing around that would have more than made up for the empty seats.

The most enjoyable thing about the trip was the fact that the P.A. for some reason, was turned way down on volume, and I could just barely hear that OBNOXIOUS, and I mean OBNOXIOUS, p.a. announcer screaming at the top of his lungs every time that riverdale did something. I think that he is more interested in bringing all the attention to himself than to the game. I know Coach Rankin, and he is a class guy, and runs a class program, but, as far as Mr. Scream at the top of his lungs goes, i can do without him . Maybe that's why they had the volume turned way down, the home team may be tired of his old song and dance too. :D

Riverdale plays no one until now every year, they should be undefeated. Cookeville - No. 2 in the state. You have got to be kidding me. If D-B was last ranked #1 and Cookeville was #2  and Oak Ridge is #3, then where is Riverdale ranked?

 

Riverdale has not played one single team that could beat Oak Ridge, D-B, Soddy-Daisy or Ooltewah for that matter.

 

Get ready for some real competition.

 

ROLL WILDCATS ROLL!

O......kay, please tell that to Smyrna, Lincoln County and a couple of other teams.

 

Also if Riverdale is sooooo bad and has played nobody then WHY are they ranked in the top 20 in 5 national polls? For that matter why aren't any of the teams you mentioned in the same national polls?

 

Not saying OR is bad because they are for sure a very good team. I am looking forward to watching them next week.

    • Did he promise you a coordinator job or something if he ever got a head coaching job? He resigned? He was at the top of the dugout last night calling plays. I wonder if those 30+ parents would let him give their kids a ride. by the way the board meeting was last night and it was not mentioned. must have been at the work session earlier this week which is not public. must be trying to keep it quiet.  Since you know so much, how much is Robbie Atwood willing to pay Adam Cothron?  Didn't you slander Eden earlier on here? You also didn't know he was a faculty coach again so how much do you really know? Some people outside this county baffle me with their need to slander others.    
    • He resigned smh, and have you ever heard of charged but not convicted. Some people in this county baffle me with their need to slander others. Have you asked any of the 30+ parents that signed a petition to get him reinstated at the board meeting this week how they feel about this? Just let it play out, at the end of the day the only people that will bring TC back are the ones that know what its about at its core.    People hate losing and they aren't used to it at TC. I for 1, and I'm sure others too, understand having a dip in talent and not being able to compete for a state title every year. But in the past, TC teams have outworked more talented teams, they didn't continuously lose the turnover battle, they didn't commit 8+ penalties in several games each season, and I believe several of the folks in town that want Blake out feel as if he is neglecting the history of the program. This is from a source that used to be extremely close to the program (not me lol), Blake gets out of school midday and the players show up and there is no practice plan or itinerary.  I also understand those that are on team Blake, when he has loads of talent, he wins. He does know football and he is a tremendous DC, and if the rumors are true then he will do great things. As for the board member issue, it is what it is, everyone that's true to the county know that and nothing has changed. I agree though that they should strive to make the facilities as good as we can. And as far as potential candidates, I agree there is very few options. West, Vetetoe (yes I know), and couple others that could have some interest. Whatever happens is massive for the program during a pivotal time before the next big wave of stars make their way through. 
    • McKenzie had no trouble with Huntingdon.  
    • Has BA landed any cornfed cowboys to block up front?
    • Yea I agree I will say tho I was a big “ v “ fan if an  opening ever did happen I think it would’ve been good to see him have a shot coming from a power house like Oakland. I’m sure he’s learned a lot from Kevin.  I bet he would bring a really good offense scheme IMO But after all this I just dunno anymore.  Whatever happens with the rumors an such if it did come to and opening I think this messes it all up.  The board members dreams are slowly slipping away now. I haven’t lived there for awhile I just hear what I hear, but my question is would there be any good potential candidates?? That’s why I don’t understand why people want b s out so bad who else could do any better ?? IMO there’s nothing attractive about it? As I stated earlier I went to the last game last year and taking a leak in a porta Potty is pretty sad and still nothing being done they say ..
