Better yet, being invited to the Oneida (Tenn.) coach’s house after a high school playoff game and filing my story sitting in his den. Couplers worked beautifully from his land line. The late coach Jim May. Forever indebted to him and his kindness to a clueless 19-year-old aspiring sports writer. We all need people like Coach May along the way on our journey.
ALUMNI GAME UPDATE:
During halftime of the Alumni Game, we will have a 3-point competition, with the first round being our current Class of 2026 Seniors vs Alumni. The bracket is posted below.
Start time will be August 16th at 6:00 on the Hill! Please share..

Thank you to @coachw25 and Eagleton, and to @gregadd3 and all the folks at Coalfield for the hospitality the last 2 nights. We went from an air conditioned, multimillion dollar press box to a roof top but we are always treated well both places!
