Let's see, ACR had to pay Swain for not being able to play. The truth is, someone in the athletic office got the dates of games messed up and scheduled another game for the same day. That came straight from the athletic office. I don't know all the details but that is the gist of what happened. You can call it running if you want to and that is fine. If that is running then Owen has been the Forrest Gumps of Buncombe County for the last 30 years or so for not playing Asheville who is right in your back yard.
MAC week 3.....
- Thread starter BD Warrior
- Start date
You are thinking of the guys that did it last year. They have moved to Florida and no longer do the stats for ACR.
I have nothing to do with their site. It is a good site though for football stats for WNC football.
It wasn't last year. I do agree we have some work to do for a while. I don't know what can be done honestly. The talent is not here as a whole past this year. Hopefully the youth league and Middle school can help us out in the future.
Reynolds could win this game playing only their 9th and 10th graders there is a reason Kenny decided to retire. I doubt Owen will ever win two games in a row in this series again in our lifetime. But at least little brother can hang their hat on that win last year.
Ok. We do have some young backs that should help us the next couple years but the line I worry about.
I think this years Owen Reynolds game will be determined on what did or didn't happen AFTER last years game at Reynolds. I wasnt there obviously but if Owen did in fact act like they won the Super Bowl after last years game like the Reynolds faithful are claiming and the Reynolds coaches saw it and were offended, you could possibly see a scenario where Rico dowdle scores 6-7 touchdowns and plays well into the 4th quarter. I don't know if Shane laws would do that but you never know.
I will be the first to tell you that it would take no turnovers for us a couple for them and we would have to play the best d we have played this year to have a chance. I hope we can keep the ball away from them and score on 15 play drives using up huge chunks of time and keep it within a couple of scores. If that happened I would be excited. If better then I might lose my mind but I'm not counting on it.
I think next year Asheville and Reynolds will be getting a bunch of new transfers for football. WLOS said something about Erwin hating Hispanics and African Americans......something like that. Any truth to that rumor BD? I mean, if it's true then we need to get dibbs on the Poore kid and maybe that big Hispanic O-lineman. Reynolds can have the leftovers.
No man. We already called "dibbs". That's a universal law. Ya'll can go recruit from Enka....or McDowell.
GG, how did I get pulled into this convo? Does he have you and me confused! I'm here in FL minding my business and I read these post blasting me for keeping stats and doing a website. I'm innocent here, no need to blast me and my brother.
5 mins til kickoff. Ashevilles away side MIGHT be half full with pisgah fans. It's bigger than you thought huh? Tried to tell you. Our away side is bigger than most home sides.
Ewww how has Ooltewah look in person since their film didn't impress yall? The past 2 years some Team from TN has made western nc not look to hot. Tn football has progressed quite a bit over the last 10 years

If Erwin was in TN they would be classified as 5a. 1700-1200 is the limit. No Ooltewah is a public school where you first get into the city of Chattanooga. Closed school zone and no recruits
Cougar90 (who you quoted) is an Asheville fan, I highly doubt he was at the Erwin game.
I haven't seen any of the Erwin fans say anything about Ooltewah that wasn't respectful and indicating Ooltewah was a very good team. In fact, BD Warrior (Erwin fan) predicted Ooltewah to win based on what he had seen and heard about their program.
