Until the next Puckett arrives, times will be tough. How confident are the McEwen faithful that coach can get it done? I know many people questioned if he ever made Puckett better.

 

 

 

I think you have a good dedicated coach. Besides, Puckett was good, but not that good. If he was as great as his dad thought, he would have been in North Carolina. But I can't fault his dad. Every dad thinks their kid is the greatest. But I saw a guy who hardly played on a local high school team at another school eat Puckett's lunch his senior year in a basketball pick up game.

McEwen is well coached and they play extremely hard. After that, it is a crap shoot as to win they will have a talented team. The county's talent is down as a whole if you also look at Waverly as well. It takes more than one or two good players to be successful in basketball. It also takes sometimes less talented players accepting their role with a team. Talent comes in cycles at every school. It is just a matter getting the right group of kids together.

I watched McEwen come back and beat an average Jo Byrns team last week , then get creamed by a talented WH Heritage team the following game, that night I saw a coach let his team get out of control by letting/allowing them to foul and play to take players out. It was an Atrocious game of basketball to witness. I was embarrassed for McEwen. That is not the way to play.

 

So my opinion (bad) sorry.

I agree with that statement. McEwen has always been dirty and so have there fans. East Lit and McEwen are the classless teams in the district. More East Lits fans, girls team, and cheer leaders not so much their guys team.

What's yall's opinion on mcewen basketball....good, bad......

 

 

OK, you asked....

In my opinion, McEwens team is not so good this year. I have seen them play three times and when they get behind in the score they start to play dirty. I think that the coach encourages this, as I have seen him say "good Job" when a player commits a hard foul on another player. You asked for my opinion and it is that they are a dirty playing team. Sorry.

    • 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.
