First of all congrats to the rockets. I can't remember the last time we were beaten by 20 points, Probably more than 3 year. VB is better than we showed last night we were flat from the beginning. I don't know where our defense was, and I have never seen as many balls fly off of players heads as I did last night. Not saying we would have won just would have been better competition. Cascade probably is better than they showed as well. I could be wrong but Ireally think it will be a tight District in the end. I wouldn't count any of the early favorites out at this point. By the way Eagleville looks pretty tough so far.

 

 

Coming off of Christmas break everyone seems to find their rhythm and rotation and that is when things start heating up and getting interesting.

Actually i dissagree with that... Sometimes or alot teams peak at the beginning of the season.. I def don't think that most teams find there groove... Even good teams sometime find it a struglle to stay in focus and on point, i think the best coached teams light it up after christmas...

I think both of you guys have some points.....coaching is part of it, the players are part of it and LUCK is a huge part of it. You have to be lucky to keep everybody healthy and distraction free- if that is possible to do with high school guys. I have a hard enought time keeping them focussed in my classroom, I can't imagine what the coaches must go through. Anyway, I think that each team is it's own unique animal and has its own chemistry, some peek early and some late. I asked Coach Pope and Coach Edmondson the other night what they thought and they both agree you want to be playing your best ball late in the year. Also, I think that Eagleville, Forrest, Van Buren and Cascade will beat up on each other and before the season is out they will probably be all contending for the championship for the district but you have to tip your hat to Forrest and Eagleville right now because they are playing good basketball. Good luck to everybody!

I agree with the top four teams in the district right now. We are improving every game and our last game has been our best yet. I know we have some AAA games coming up this weekend. I hope it helps us more than it hurts us. I know it is good to play teams better than you but it seems like the last round at the La Vergne tournament we lost our grove and have just now gotten back.

      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.
