It's been a while since my last rankings. Here's a look at the Gomab 2006-2008 Fall Rankings. Top 55 for '06, Top 50 for '07, and Top 40 for '08.

Wow, you have really mixed it up. I have seen a lot of players around the state and you do a good job of putting this together. It is impossible to agree on a consensus, but you have put together a pretty good list. Good work.

 

My comments, for what it is worth..................

 

2006

 

* Agree with Wright over Young.

* Brandon Powell seems a little high. I think the FL signing skews him up a bit. I don't think FL got a good deal there.

* Keith Ramsey, if he becomes eligible and plays in college - which he will eventually, will most likely be 2nd or 3rd in this class as far as productivity in college and I think he should be #4-5 on the list right now.

* Josh Bone is better than Stewart.

* Oden may not be the best shooter, but he is a great playmaker - maybe better than 21.

* Hunter from LaVergne might be better than you think.

* Micah Williams is butter

* I'd like to see Channels move up

 

2007

* I like Wattad over Long

* Strong is way too high on your list

* Kevin Smith is all potential - not quite there yet, and should not be in the top 15 - however, will be great!

* Allen/Oakland - one of the best prospects in the state - regardless of class - Way too low - should be top 10. Much more polished than Kevin Smith.

* Brian Wright may be a bit low - top 20 player

* Wade from Oakland is not in your top 50 and belongs

* Smgielski (Sp?) from laVergne should also be top 50

 

2008

* Carter McMasters must be good - we hear a lot about him - but have not seen him play

* Caldwell is starting to get passed up by some more players - more than just McMasters

* DeMario Williams is starting to level off too - but is big time

* McAdoo will keep getting better

* Ware is better than #10

* Marcus Jefferson is solid - good pick there

* Rayshawn Walker needs to grow or learn to dribble - great athlete. When he does either, he will then deserve this ranking.

* Henley dropped way too much. Yes, he is small for his position, but he can flat out play. If you are picking teams, you want this guy on your side.

* Cutter - major improvement. He will continue to rise - had 19 last night against Beech and from what I have heard - a complete player - also seems taller than 5'9"

* Weitzel - His stock will continue to rise. Starting to mature and develop into solid post player - needs to lift weights.

* Buggs - quick as lightning - needs to move up to

* What happened to Gaskins - didn't see him in first game box score?

* Where did Upton go? He has to be top 50, doesn't he?

* Blonde shaggy haired kid from Harpeth - is he on this list? Don't know his name, but he is a player.

McMasters at No. 1? I don't know a whole lot about that class but they must be pretty weak if he's number one. I'm not sure if he is quite 6'10 but he is SO skinny and he had no post game. All he did was spot up for threes. He was not real athletic either. Also I think Chris Goodwin is way too high, he's is a good spot up shooter, but that is it.

Good job. Your knowledge about all these players is impressive, as always. I'm most familiar with the DII guys. Maurian Price of Harding really impressed me last year as maybe the 2nd or 3rd best player in DII. Don't know most of the others ahead of him, but I'd like to have him on my team! Also, I'll bet dollars to donuts that Brandon Brown is a top 5 player by next year if he keeps improving at the same rate. Thanks.

Your thinking of Kevin Giltner he is a very good athlete.(Long shaggy hair) Even though he shaved it all off before the season started with the rest of the starting 5 players. Edited by HHSnumber1fan

Carter is now a legitimate 6'10 without shoes. yes he does need to put weight on but remember he is 15. He doesnt turn 16 till the summer (he is a very young sophmore). You will very rarely find a kid Carters size that is as skilled as he is.

Ramsey will most likely be 2nd or 3rd in this class? have you lost your dang mind? sorry to ruin your fantasy but he will NEVER be better than Young, Wright, Kemp, Chism, and Vanardo. and more than likely he'll never be on the same level as Niles and Powell either.

I respect your opinion. After watching him play in AAU, I'm not sure Brandon Wright was more valuable to that team than Ramsey. At times, Ramsey looks like the better player. Not saying he is a better prospect than UNC bound Wright or even a better player, but he has more versatility. Also, when it comes to hustle, I'll take Ramsey. We will have to wait and see, but I really think Ramsey is better than you think.

    • They’ve both gotten worse. I’ve seen enough games to know that. 
    • 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.
