Tonight I watched the districts at E town. I only have one thing to say after staying quiet all season. SHAME ON YOU E TOWN. I expected much better than the unsportman like preformance that I saw. Bad calls and scraming by your fans where out of line. I backed you last year but this wasn't right.

 

 

Where is E-Town? Which school playes there?

Elizabethton is E-town. I was just a little upset when I posted that but it is true. Their coaching staff should have called their fans down but instead they let them disrupt the matches. The disrespect for other teams have me wondering why I even go up there. It just amazed me how many times I saw bad calls. Where was the TSSAA and why didn't they have something to say when this was going on? Makes you wonder. OH well the big e lost my respect and worst of all they lost a loyal fan.

Heard Milligan College wasn't too happy about the Cox outburst after the match...

 

From Rick Sheek's STAR article:

 

If Johnson County's James Cox was trying to play mind games with Seth Wallingford, the Elizabethton junior didn't let the antics get to him.

 

After dropping the first set 6-3, Wallingford rallied to win the next two 6-3, 6-4 on Thursday evening in the District 1-A/AA tennis quarterfinals at Elizabethton High School.

 

"It was very long," Wallingford said. "A lot of deuce games. He hit unbelievably, and so I just had to stay with him throughout the match.

 

"There was some controversy, but you can't let that throw you off. You just have to keep pushing, and believe that you're always right. I didn't let that throw me off. I just had to keep pushing, but he put up a great fight."

 

The second-seeded Cox, whose only losses this year have been to Curtis Brumit, raced to an early 5-1 lead in taking that first set. After Wallingford had evened it up to force that third set, Cox disputed a call.

 

The players couldn't get the matter resolved, and after Elizabethton coach Danny O'Quinn and Johnson County coach Steve Nave conferred a line judge was assigned to the match.

 

Wallingford led 2-1 at that stage and increased his advantage to 4-2, when Cox battled back to tie it at 4. Wallingford then put it away as Cox flung his racquet around the court after the match.

This is Matt Hill from the Mountain City Tomahawk. I had to come on here and clear my name. I am not High Country 40 and I don't know who that is. I was wrongly accused by somebody of starting this topic and it was not me. Everybody knows my login is Dukie and if you look back, it's been a long time since I posted. Though I'm in Cox's corner, I have been friends with Seth's dad for a long time and would not post anything blatant on him or anybody else. I want my name cleared for this. I do see where people would think this is me, but I promise it's not.

    • 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.
