You have already labeled me one of the "classless" ones since I am from Maryville so I might as well put my two cents in. Were any starters in after half? Was a single pass thrown in the second half? If the answer to either of those is yes then they were not trying hard enough to tone it down. If there were "several" freshmen in in the second quarter then at the start of the third it should have been all freshmen. And I know once you get pretty far down the Alcoa bench the players get pretty small because I have seen them. I just don't buy all this "gee we can't take a knee for 20 minutes" stuff. You can put in the least players you have and run three dives and punt. You think Maryville hasn't had chances to score this many before? They could have hung 60 on Alcoa this year if they wanted to. In 2002 we took a knee on the Heritage one yard line at the end of the first half leading 35-0. I think the final score was 35-6. It can be done. You say Reid is you friend and I respect that, but this thread indicates he obviously had this reputation before this game was played. If this opinion makes me classless I can live with it. It is fairly ironic though that you make statements like that to defend a guy who just humiliated a bunch of high school kids by hanging 91 on them.

 

You can watch the replay on T.V..............come up with your own opinion. Just get the Alcoa depth chart to understand how deep in to the line up he went in the 2nd,3rd & 4th quarters.

 

One other thing to note. Coach Reid basically turned the play calling to the ast. coach that works with the freshman in the second half.

 

Also in the replay you will see Coach Reid go out to the offical and request the 2nd half to be reduced to 8:00 quarters. The offical looks at the score board then shakes his head "yes"

 

As far as being classless, stating..."It is fairly ironic though that you make statements like that to defend a guy who just humiliated a bunch of high school kids by hanging 91 on them." ..................you formed an opinion without watching the game???

 

AND.yea,yea I know maryville never ever does wrong...I got that! :lol:

I honestly thought there was a person on here putting a fake score up on the scoreboard. TRUST ME, when I say that I have seen some very horrible high school football teams. Teams that don't even line up in an organized defense. And the score NEVER got that high. Why? Because when you hit the 60s/70s thats borderline bush league. You know how to prevent that , you kneel the ball, or you punt it back to them. You don't put 91 points on a high school football team..Theres no excuse.

Do you guys not listen? Alcoa had 5 TD's returned from turnovers. Do you just want the player to just take off running about 5 yards and just fall down or something, especially a high school kid that hardly ever sees the field? You want to tell him that he's not allowed to score if he gets the ball? I mean come on, Joei threw the ball 4 times I believe, Lindsey had about 4 carries, and our 3rd string QB never threw the ball. Heck, we had about 15 offensive plays in the first half. As Budrock and Coalman said, we had the third team in late in the second half, how does that signal a chance of running up the score?

I agree completely! There is no way anyone can justify 91 points! All of the Alcoa fans keep complaining that if you weren't there, you can't make a judgement. Yes you can! There is absolutely no reason to pull this kind of stunt! This is what has made Riverdale out to be such a villan in the past, because Gary Rankin has been notorious for it. Now, it's Alcoa's turn to be the bad guy. Don't come on here making excuses or complaining about a team having no class when the same thing happens to you. Hopefully, in the next few games!

No matter what, you cannot explain away this one. Like everyone else is saying, 3 dives and a punt should work!

    • The only two transfers that Bearden has gotten that went on to play college football were a defensive back from Karnes, who transferred here way before the new coaching staff got here, and a running back from Carter, who went on to play at Maryville College. Both players received those offers while at Bearden, and both players got a diploma from Bearden High School. Therefore, they are Bearden kids, and you can’t do anything about that.   The transfer from Seymour didn’t win the job, what do you expect two quarterbacks to start at the same time? He played great on JV when he could stay healthy, and when he came in on varsity, he did great. The quarterback position is definitely going to be in good hands when the current starting quarterback leaves, but until then, they’re just going to be battling it out like every good quarterback competition does. The current starting quarterback has his flaws, and that is in the pass game, but what he doesn’t have flaws is running and scrambling, and if you go back and watch any game, which I’m sure you didn’t watch any, we used him very often, and when we needed a deep ball, we brought in the transfer from Seymour. The starting quarterback last year will be a senior this year, and the Seymour transfer will be a junior, so the Seymour transfer is definitely going to get his spotlight. He may even win the job this year. Football isn’t about who the newspaper thinks is the best kid. The best kid in the position will win the starting job, and I trust the coaching staff more than a newspaper or article to pick my starting QB.
    • I mean, we’ve only gotten two transfers that went on to play college football, one who went to UT Martin came his second semester junior year before the new coaching staff was here, and the other one went on to play at Maryville College, in which I don’t believe he had any interest prior to transferring.
    • An FYI: To see how an opponent has done against another opponent since 2001- go to the game by clicking on one of the teams. Click the G beside the game. For example, Milan: The info will show you the previous matchups and other info.
    • All these college signees went yo other schools for 3 years, were getting college offers then transferred to Bearden. It’s not like this staff did much to develop them.    The BBall coaches son and the Seymour transfer were some of the most talented QBs in the region, and you guys developed them into QBs who might complete one pass a game. 
    • No my fight, but ... if they were already college-caliber prior to transferring to BHS, and they already had FBS interest, and they end up at an FBS school, how did Bearden do anything for them?
