After seeing the VOD from comcast (unapproved website.COM) and seeing Carter and Pigeon Forge play, I did see one pretty good athlete from PF. The QB has got one heck of an arm. It sure is hard to pass it to yourself though. PF has got to find some fast athletic players. They do have some good football players, just not any playmakers. The line does look a little smaller than in the past. I will see them again several times in the next couple of weeks to see how they compete against the rest of the region. Good luck to the Tigers. Carter seemed to be big up front as well as fast at many positions. Had several great athletes. When you claim athletes could start for any team in the region I would think you meant any team. That was the first statement, you then recanted it to everyone except Seymour and Carter. I did pick Rutledge to be in the cellar this year. I was completely wrong. They will have to play Carter the last ballgame for the region championship if both teams continue there winning ways. Now I can admit when I'm wrong. I hope you can to. Good luck to all.

Zack Schrandt went to Davidson College on a ROTC scholarship. He played football for them briefly, but not on a "athletic scholarship". He is currently enrolled at the Univ. of Tenn.

paul has over 900 yds passing in 5 games ....it however has not been easy...this is his first season as a high school qb...he is on pace to get about 2000 yds for the season....as for running up the score ,well going for two with 55-12 lead certainly gives that impression...if they forgot the tee and the kids just emprovised in that situation then that is different. But you tell me ....how is anybody supposed to know that....and your stiil throwin deep instead of handin off and you could have set up the return insterad of goin for the block ... but that's OK ...enjoy your win...yeah were whinning ....nobody worth his salt likes to be embarrassed.....and we were friday night

First of all Leonard you need to read my post carefully before you say that I am contradicting myself. I said that PF had some athletes (namely Aparicio and Guidry) that could start for any team in the region. I then said that the only two TEAMS consistently more athletic than PF are Seymour and Carter. I believe Aparicio had a 40 yard TD reception early in the game against Carter. Pretty big play. Guidry has 2 Kick Off Returns for TD this year. Pretty big plays.

I am not claiming PF as the most athletic team around, I am simply stating that they do have athletes and are not always big and slow as you continue to claim.

How many skill players (in the 5 years Pf has been a varsity program) have the other schools in the district sent to play college ball on athletic scholarships? You have to remember we are compared against Region 1 and Region 1 only when it comes to athletes, none of us can match up with Region 2 consistently.

Yeah...the folks in Pigeon Forge are in a heavy state of denial and have some kind of superiority complex. Must be genetic or something like that.

 

Wow...that's 36 points allowed one week, 45 the next and 64 the next. Might oughta think about being better on the defensive side of the ball instead of trying to work that spread offense. I think West Greene tried to make that work a few years ago and may still be doing it...how's that working out?

 

 

KevB,

I wish you would explain the superiority complex comment. It's tough to think you are superior when your best record in school history is 5-6 and a fourth place finish. I think we all believe we could be better, isn't that what competing is all about

You were embarrassed because of poor preparation and coaching, not lack of athletes. The sooner you see this below the tunnel the better off you will be. This was the previous athletic directors way of getting back at the school system before he left, that is why he named him the baseball coach as well. He didn't want anyone to be as successfull as he was. Plain and Simple! There were many capable coaches in the county that could have done a nicer job, but politics prevailed in Pigeon Forge again. As far as anyone running up the score, I think your own cheerleaders could score on you, maybe you need to recruit a few for you offensive line :thumb: All i'm saying is quit whinning and start making changes to help the problem, the embarrassment is your coaching staff............

Carter ran it up tonite ...looking for those AP votes in the polls ....ran it up in last 8 minutes after PF pulled their QB...went for two and made it, to run it up to 57-12...then brought the house at the very end to block a PF punt and recover in the end zone for 64-12 final ....AT THE BUZZER

 

 

I have no problem with Carter scoring late in the game. Our boys (and I love them all) are laying down as soon as the other team scores the first touchdown. If we are not going to compete from horn to horn then we deserve to give up 64. It is our job to keep them out of the endzone. We have to learn how to compete.

I am not sure that it is fair to judge a new coach quite this early. It takes time to change attitude and I promise you the attitudes need changing.

      Who vandalized Maryville's Football Field?

      OK, well, that’s because two quarterbacks can’t start. That’s football 101. The main quarterback won the starting job, so he was on varsity, and the Seymour transfer did not win the starting job. He played some varsity. He was mainly junior varsity, and he balled out when healthy, so for the starting quarterback who’s been starting varsity since his freshman year, if you have any form of proof that he’s gotten worse, somehow, whether that means stats or whatnot, please feel free to share.

      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.
