[RunItUpTheGut]

Me and Mr. Amped has had our moments of disagreement, mostly over the offensive game plans but I can't fault him for that..we've won a lot of games with the run, but we've also lost a lot of very winnable games due to the refusal to mix more than 1 pass in, personally I think things may be a little different this year judging from Friday night, but that's a discussion for another day.

I agree completely with him here. I like a lot of what RIUTG says, he shoots pretty forward, but I think from what I'm taking away from game 1, we beat Whitley and KC this year. If we do, the next few years won't be good for either because the team we have now is going to get better and better. It's a good team, and the coaches are handling the situation correctly and making this team look a lot better than it is. We're going to show up on Friday nights with boys out on the field I feel is on the same level as the other two but I firmly believe the difference will be the coaching. A lot of people down on Mills, don't forget back in 08 and 09 when Knox played us pretty tough how everyone was clamoring that Mills was the better coach, or on the same level to keep his team so close, just didn't have the athletes Dudley had. Don't forget all of the arguments that Mills built KC up from nothing to a year in and year out solid contender. The guy hasn't changed, he's still a great coach that knows how to bring the best out in these boys. To me, the best shot is going to be this year, but I'm not so sure it's gonna happen. I think we've got a better team up on log mountain than a lot of people are giving us credit for.

The Whitley/Bell game this year will be a close one, but i fully believe Whitley will beat Bell this year. And Whitley returns everyone next year, so i expect more of the same. This Whitley team is pretty young, only a handful of starters, and they will return most of there line along with QB, RB's, etc, and the defense will all be back except for 3 i think.
As i said earlier, Ive been on this site for four years, and not one time have i ever picked Whitley over Bell, but im doing it this year...
