I cast my vote for David Crockett. Truly a "Pioneer" in Tennessee football for all the wrong reasons...
In 40 years of playing football....
-Less than 100 wins since the school's formation in 1971 (98 wins precisely)
-that's 2.45 wins a season
-7 winless seasons
-8 seasons with only 1 victory
-11 seasons with only 2 victories
-only 4 winning seasons (2000, 1974, 1973, 1971)
-best season: inaugural 1971 (8-1-1)
-only 4 seasons at .500 (5-5)
-longest losing streak: 27 games (last game of 1975, all of '76, all of 77, first 7 games of '78; ended vs Morristown West, 21-20)
-2nd longest losing streak: 26 games (3rd game of 1986, all of '87, 6 games into '88; ended vs Campbell County, 10-7)
-in 1987, Campbell Co. ended a 23 game losing streak with a win over David Crockett (21-6)
-Other notable losing streaks: 21 games (1993-95), 18 games (1988-90), 15 games (twice, 2002-2004 and 2004-2005 sandwiched around a 23-20 victory against Volunteer HS)
-Only 2 playoff appearances (2000, 1971)
-Record in "Musket Bowl" vs rival (in name only) Daniel Boone: 9-31
-number of Muskets won (school to win 3 Musket Bowls in a row): 1 (2000,'01,'02)
-number of Muskets lost: 7 [72,73,74-75,76,77-84,85,86-89,90,91-92,93,94-03,04,05-06,07,08)
-number of consecutive losses to 'rival' Daniel Boone: 8 (2003-present, if Boone wins the 2011 game it will 9 consecutive losses and a total of 8 Muskets lost)
Worst losses ever:
62-0 vs Ketron (later Sullivan North) 1976 (62 pt Margin of Victory)
57-0 vs Jefferson County 1990 (57 pt MoV)
56-2 vs Greeneville 2005 (54 pt MoV)
53-0 vs Jefferson County 1992 (53 pt MoV)
52-0 vs Jefferson County 1987 (52 pt MoV)
52-0 vs Greeneville 2004 (52 pt MoV)
56-6 vs Sullivan East 1976 (50 pt MoV)
49-0 vs Jefferson County 1989 (49 pt MoV)
48-0 vs Morristown West 1986 (48 pt MoV)
54-6 vs Jefferson County 1986 (48 pt MoV)
55-7 vs Science Hill 2011 (48 pt MoV)
54-7 vs Dobyns Bennett 2010 (47 pt MoV)
60-13 vs Tennessee High 2011 (47 pt MoV)
45-0 vs Morristown West 1987 (45 pt MoV)
51-6 vs Morristown West 1989 (45 pt MoV)
Most points ever given up in a single game:
67-35 vs Cocke County 2011
62-0 vs Ketron 1976
60-13 vs Tennessee High 2011
60-34 vs South Greene 2011
57-0 vs Jefferson County 1990
56-21 vs Morristown West 1999
56-2 vs Greeneville 2005
55-14 vs Cherokee 1994
55-7 vs Science Hill 2011
55-14 vs Morristown East 2002
54-6 vs Jefferson County 1986
54-7 vs Dobyns-Bennett 2010
The damage isn't done yet. They play Dobyns-Bennett (currently #5 in the state) next Friday and close out the season against Sullivan South (3-3, all 3 losses to top ranked state teams in TN, VA, and NC), Sullivan Central (also winless but by FAR less points allowed, somebody HAS to win), and Daniel Boone (2-4 but won against Volunteer 41-0, who beat Crockett 47-26 last night).
Jason McVeigh, Director of Sports Medicine at Tennessee, graduated from David Crockett in 1992. He did not play football.
