Disappointed as we may be, this has definitely been a problem over the years, lots of schools saying no to Union. Outside of KY schools, I'm unaware of the coaches saying no to anyone. Tenn High was on the line a couple of years ago, but they couldn't get open dates to work out. Science Hill too, but they didn't want to come to BSG. The biggest problem with Tennessee schools is the embarrassment of getting beaten by a VA school less than half their size. And most of the ones that are the same size have either refused to play, are not practical distance wise, or wouldn't really offer much of a challenge.
Wouldn't mind seeing the Bears play Bluefield if it weren't for the distance. That's the only reason I don't care for the Graham match up. Well, that and the powerpoint/playoff issue. There are many, many Tennessee schools that would offer great games AND are less than 2 hours away. Maybe next cycle.
