    if he’s playing a bit, big screen and vols online. Sometimes it’s tough for freshmen to get PT against 22 year olds. He may be a stud though if he uses his fathers hate of Jews and channels it.

    A follow up.

    Played today.

    We on 35 to 0.

    They had 0 first downs. 0. My starters were on the sideline chanting defense at end of game when backups were in. They are taking pride in it.

    Felt so good.

    Hs ball down a bit in wmsn county. Summit won state with the twins but have nothing left. Brentwood has no qb with 6’6 TE, 4.5 kid outside who will go to Vandy probably and Walker Merrils little brother at slot and transfer rb from Texas. They can’t score.

    So Saturday we had a b team Jamboree. 4 teams participated. We played everyone 1 20 minute "game". One of the teams was actually the main team from one team. They've not won a game nor have they come remotely close all year. I believe one player had played before and it was a struggle.

    So Saturday in their last game they beat Alcoa's b team 6 to 0. And those kids and their parents celebrated like they won the super bowl. Even the Alcoa parents and coaches were applauding for them after the game. The coaches walked by and I congratulated them and they were grinning from ear to ear. It was just really awesome to see those kids have some success because it's been a long, long season for them.

    While watching last week's game, I was horrified when I realized I called a toss sweep to the short side of the field. While many of you, understandably, list the short yardage shotgun as your biggest football per peeve, the toss to the short side of the field is mine. I could only look on in terror as I realized and watched it happen in real time. Never felt like such a football hypocrite in my life.

    I ran qb keeper to the short side of the field for a td last night. Faked it off tackle and that whole team went for it. Just rolled him and and he waltzed in.

    Son is a soph now and ran a laser 4.7 at D1. Chance we could get that down close to a 4.5 with some work on the start and get a little stronger next year or so but looks like he wants to go to UT and play lacrosse for UT club team. He saw the helmet and wants to wear it..

    Man, Alcoa had a kid that might be the best I've seen yet. He is as close to unstoppable as an 8 year old can be. Mix in a 2nd back that would be most other teams #1 and they are darn near impossible to stop.

    I often wonder how many people just refuse to understand how important genetics are in life. The whole "you can do anything you want if you put your mind to it" is the biggest lie we tell our kids. I understand the importance of thinking that way, but lets be frank, it isn't true.
