#TeamFYNsports week 4 games of the week

Team FYN Sports September 25, 2020 , by Jake West

Starting this year, #TeamFYNsports will be bringing you their top football games of the week for our local area football teams.

Team FYN sports director Jake West and Fannin County Rec. Department Athletic Coordinator Tim Towe will also be giving you their picks to win these games of the week.

Last week, Tim Towe went 3-1, only missing the Gilmer vs Murray game. Jake West went 1-3, missing every game except for the White County game. Last week was a bad week for our Team FYN Sports director Jake West, and if he is not careful Tim Towe is going to run away with the season this year.

Tim sits at 7-2 overall on the season.

Jake sit at 4-5 overall on the season.

Now, lets get to our week 4 games of the week for Georgia!

Fannin County @ Southeast Whitfield

Tim: Give me my Rebels big this week. No disrespect to the Southeast program, but they are playing Fannin at the wrong time. Coach Chad Cheatham has this Fannin bunch focused despite all the craziness that has happened the last few weeks. Rebels win 38-7.

Tim’s pick: Fannin

Jake: No way i’m betting against the Rebels this week. I may not even bet against them for the rest of the year. This team has already gone through more in 3 weeks than some teams do in a full year. I wrote an article that you can read HERE about the Rebels tough start to the season and about why I would not want to be Southeast Whitefield come 7:30 tonight. Rebels all the way.

Jake’s pick: Fannin

Gilmer @ East Jackson

Tim: I am 0-2 in picking Gilmer games this year. I thought that they would beat Pickens in week one, and then last week I thought that Murray would be able to get it done. I was wrong on both accounts. I think that the Bobcats will be ready to play down at East Jackson and they win a close one. Gilmer 21, East Jackson 7.

Tim’s pick: Gilmer

Jake: If i’m being honest, I have no clue who to pick in this game. East Jackson just beat Banks County last week and also Gilmer is coming off of a win against Murray. MaxPreps even has both teams ranked within 10 spots of one another when it comes to their state of Georgia rankings. I guess I will simply pick against Tim on this one, to see if I can improve my record and jump back into this thing.

Jake’s pick: East Jackson

Coosa @ Pickens

Tim: Coosa has been putting up points in the last few weeks. Scoring almost every time they have the football. The Pickens Defense will be motivated and have a great game. Give me the Dragons 35-7.

Tim’s pick: Pickens

Jake:Im taking Pickens in this one too. It’s a 4A Pickens team against a 2A Coosa team. Odds are I am going to side with the bigger school every time. Although Coosa is 2-0 and it looks like they are going to be a good football team, I just think that Pickens will be too big and too fast for them to handle.

Jake’s pick: Pickens

Mount Zion @ Towns County

Tim: I am so excited for the Towns County program. They are doing great things under Head Coach Jason Roquemore. I encourage everyone in Towns County to get out and support the Indians tonight. I’m gonna have to pick Mount Zion Carroll but I have a weird feeling about this one. It would not surprise me if i’m wrong. I hope Im wrong. Mt. Zion Carrol 28, Towns 20.

Tim’s pick: Mount Zion

Jake: If the Towns County Indians are able to pull this win off, it would be a huge leap forward for their program that did not win a game all last year and went 0-10. The Indians are already off to a heck of a start this year, going 2-1 in their first three games and even thumping a much bigger school in Lumpkin this week. I don’t know if they will be able to do it, but Towns beating Mount Zion this week would be a huge win for the city of Hiawassee. I’m going with Towns County tonight, picking with my heart instead of my brain.

Jake’s pick: Towns County

Fannin and Copper Basin Address Media at 2020 Media Day

Sports, Team FYN Sports August 11, 2020 , by Jake West

The 2020 Fannin County and Copper Basin Media Day gave us a glimpse of what to expect from the two teams that we would not have been able to get this year since scrimmages and 7 on 7’s were cancelled.

Both High School teams brought their coaches and some key players for the upcoming season along with them to answer some questions from Team FYN Sports and local area media.

The Fannin County Rebels were represented by Head Coach Chad Cheatham, Michah O’neal (LB), Luke Holloway (QB), Seth Reece (ATH), Cohutta Hyde (WR), and Mason Bundy (RT/DE).

The Copper Basin Cougars were represented by Assistant Coach Jeremy Locke, Timothy Fair (LB/WR), Eli Patterson (CB), Chance Rowllins (OL), Dawson Worthy (WR).

Coach Cheatham was asked about some of the challenges he faced this upcoming year with being placed in a new reason. Cheatham responded by saying “Obviously, you dont know as much about your opponents as you did before. Its harder to prepare and break those teams done, with all the turnover and change. Where as in the past couple of years, we’ve had at least four years of film on our opponents and so we were able to compile alot of things. Youre going into some unchartered territory as far as knowing schemes, knowing coaches. I mean we always knew what we were going to get with (teams we played over the past few years)… Obviously it helps us a little bit in moving down a classification, and getting away from some of the bigger schools that we had played in the past. On the flip side its a little bit tougher to gan that knowledge of your opponent…”

When asked about coming off of a great 6-5 season last year, Coach Locke of the Copper Basin Cougars said, “One of the most obvious things that stood out from last year was that for the first time in quite a while we beat Polk County, and I think that it was kind of an odd night ya know, becuase we had been looking forward to it the whole year and I think nerves kinda set in at the beginning and along with the nerves came a pretty good little rain shower. Whenever you know going into it that youre gonna throw the ball around 70 percent of the time that rain makes the quarterback nervous, so we had to change our game plan a little bit and we ended up running the ball a lot and it worked out for us…. My favorite memory of it is that I would be screaming “Five, Five, Five!!” and everybody in the stadium knew exactly what ‘five’ was… but there was no one who could do a thing about it…”

You can hear more from both of the coaches and also hear from players like Luke Holloway and Timothy Fair on the Fetch Your News Youtube page HERE, as we recorded the whole thing live.

Along with the High School teams, members of the 7, 8, 9 and 10u rec league teams from both Fannin County and Copper Basin were represented. All the kids from each league were also asked questions and were given the opportunity to answer in whatever way they saw fit, and there were definitely some answers that made everyone in the gym chuckle. You can also see the video of the rec league teams at the 2020 media day on the Fetch Your News Youtube Channel HERE.

The 2020 Middle School Teams of both Fannin and Copper Basin were also in attendance at media day 202o, and you can view the playback of that video on the Fetch Your News Youtube Channel also, at the link HERE.
