Powell starters beat Greeneville starters 14-0 in a scrimmage. I expected them to be better. Of course it was their first scrimmage so who knows.I heard in a scrimmage that DB whipped them a lil bit. But they will be strong.

On a side note, I thought Powell looked better than I anticipated. Our biggest weakness is D-line and of course replacing Mobley. We will not have a drop off at QB, as a matter of a fact, Ownby is a better all around QB. He runs as well and is a much better passer. We're still not where we were last year, but will still be very good.
Even though I'm an old school Morristown West Trojan, I now live in Powell so I follow them as well. Shar'ron Moore for Powell is a 6' 210 lb. DE . Last week he had 15 tackles/4 TFL/3 sacks. Tonight he had 5 sacks, not sure how many tackles. But he was all over the place. Last Friday I watched Powell vs Rhea Co, then on Saturday caught the jamboree in Morristown which had 2 games. M-Town West vs Harlan Ky and M-Town East vs Fulton. Tonight I watched Powell vs Austin East. Point being, I've watched 7 teams play in a weeks time 5 of them being really good teams. This is the best defensive player I've seen this season in person. It can't be underestimated how much havoc he's created in his first two games.
I was really impressed with Powell against AE. They were vastly improved between week 1 and 2.
Agreed on Moore. We are thrilled he is playing so well. I'm also excited to see Hunter Wooliver and Cody Reed (both Sophomores) playing well. I coached them from age 5 til middle school. Unfortunately, my son tore his ACL/MCL in the first quarter against Rhea or he would be playing some too as a Soph.
I can tell you Rhea County was significantly better than they were last year and gave us a heck of a game. We did look much better against AE. Oak Ridge in a couple of weeks will be a real measuring block for us. Last year, they were the only team that gave us a good game until Henry County in the state championship.
