Who is returning the most starters in our region? Oakland is returning nine on offense, but only three on defense with two more with one game starts. For a predominately senior team last year, we have quite a few returning.

 

How is the progress coming along on the indoor facility? Will they break ground on it as planned in December?

Some rumors are already starting about whether or not Sonny Gray will play football for fear of ruining his baseball career. My guess is he will play, however.

 

I don't think that Sonny would throw his team under the bus like that. Do you? He wouldn't do that to his coach, his best friends, his school, or the town of Smyrna. He has a chance to defend his state title. Tell me... would you leave if you had the best weapon in the state and one of the best in the nation, Rodriguez Wilks?

 

And whatever happens was meant to happen. If he gets hurt, that's how it was meant to be and if not then great. No regrets.

My Picks For The Playoffs In 07' Not In Any Order

 

Smyrna (duh)

Riverdale (duh)

Wilson Central (I Might Have Some Support On This It's A Good Team)

Here Comes The Upset Special

BLACKMAN

Yes I Know Their Past Records But I Think The Coaches There Are Starting To Get What They Want In Place And I Wouldn't Be Suprised If Blackman Sneaks Into The Playoffs. If They Don't Then I Would Expect Oakland To Be The One Who Rains On Their Parade. LaVergne Is Losing To Much Between No Coach And A QB Who Has Been That Team For The Last Few Years. Lebanon Is Always Around But They Didn't Have Enough Weapons To Impress Me This Year. As Far As Oakland Goes They're Always Really Iffy. Don't Get Me Wrong They Have The Talent That's Obvious If You Watch Them. They Just Seem To Lack "It" Football Players Know What I Mean By "It" But As Much As I'd Love To See Oakland Take Out Riverdale And Make State They Just Seem To Fall Apart In Games And You Can't Expect To Make The Playoffs When You Can't Keep It Together The Entire Game. Anyways Those Are My Predictions. I'll See In About 10 Months If I'm Eating My Words Or People Are Singing My Praises... :thumb:

    • Deja vu all over again, 7 yrs apart. SMDH Does anybody talk to each other?
    • 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.
