Weather played a part in changing the scrimmage. Because of rain Crockett Co. cancelled the scrimmage at their place. Brighton and Lake Co. got together in Tiptonville. Overall a good scrimmage for both teams. the score ended 0-0 in varsity action. Brighton won the action with the young guys 2-0. I felt Lake Co. looked good on Defense and just missed scoring two or three times on offense. It looked like a typical first scrimmage for both teams. Brighton had around 70 players adid not even bring their freshmen. They were very athletic team. LC played hard and stood toe to toe with the AAAA team. No injuries so it was a good day in that department for both teams.

Everyone I talked to was as pleased as could be with the way Lake County held its own against a school six times its size (LC enrollment--258; Brighton enrollment--1,310). The defense was salty against the run, especially on Brighton's second series when they completed a pass for 35 yards to get inside the 10, then the Falcons held on four straight plays. I thought that really made a statement.

 

Brighton brought 81 players to Tiptonville (Lake County has 29 and had one missing), and did not bring any freshmen and only half their sophomores. They also platooned 11 on offense, 11 on defense, then brought in a different group each series. Lake County's same 13 or 14 played both ways all day until the JV portion, and even then some of LC's starters had to stay in there. And to hold a team with that much speed and numbers scoreless while moving the ball quite well against them...that says a lot. I'm excited.

    • And can you tell me who those two quarterbacks were, and every kid that was put into college from Bearden is a Bearden kid? It’s kind of why they graduated from Bearden.   and I would definitely not consider ETSU “waste”…
    • Most of this is complete gibberish. But the one part I could decipher is putting kids in college. This coaching staff hasn’t put a single Bearden kid in college. They completed wasted one of the best WRs in East TN and have ruined two talented QBs. All because they’re in over their heads. 
    • Well, I’d hope the new coaching staff thinks they are all that because they can always walk around the school, anytime they want, thinking that, especially for what they’ve done for the student athletes and the players, putting more kids in college in his first season than the old coaching staff did in numerous years combined, but we will just sweep over that because I know you don’t like facts. But trust me, nobody wanted Mr. Big britches, made the star player switch to quarterback, which is ultimately the reason he ended up transferring to play the position. He loved, but unfortunately, had to be at another school because Mr. Big Britches doesn’t like when a teenager knows more than him, but can’t expect much coming from a guy who used all class throwing pencils up into the ceiling and making fun of football kids who were failing class right to their face, and in front of numerous students, even projecting on the board most of the time.
    • After that first paragraph, I can see why you’re a TA and not a teacher. Have you made the move from South Knoxville to Bearden yet?    Maybe he left because he is an actual teacher and coach, and didn’t want to be associated with a group of foul mouthed middle school coaches who like to pretend they’re big time. 
    • Yeah and the coach is gone. Whole bizarre situation here. We played them a couple of times at MTSU last few years. She was a player for sure.
