that sounds bad i know. i didnt mean it like that. i was simply referring to a "leave it all on the field" attitude....even if you have to use the "fall down play" with runners on 1st and 3rd, the "simultaneous break" with 1st and 3rd occupied and a left handed pitcher, or "cut 3rd" play with a runner on 2nd and 3rd. please dont tell me a particular west tennessee school is the only one that uses these to their advantage if none of these ring a bell?? lol.

It might be time for these athletes to decide....football or baseball!

 

My son made the decision and went strickly baseball for that very reason. They were asking him to work out the last period of the day and then 2 hours later he was on the mound for a conference game....he said hummmm one day after a bad pitching outing because his arms were too tired to lift let alone pitch and he walked off the football team.

 

If the football program and baseball program cannot work together with these dual sport athletes then the athlete needs to stand up and make a desision himself.

 

Well,in this instance,the top football assistant IS the head coach of the baseball team...Looks like he could at least work with HIMSELF.... /roflol.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":roflol:" border="0" alt="roflol.gif" />

 

I personally don't want to limit my kids to one sport.....My oldest son just graduated and he played basketball and football in junior high...He made the decision early on he would concentrate on football....It worked out for him just fine...My youngest son plays football,baseball and basketball...If he chooses to play all three and he can hold up the academic side of it,I'll be there to support him..If after his 9th grade year he decides it's too much and wants to play one sport,I'll support him in that decision also.....Personally,I think maybe there is something not being told here(the Union City instance) since the assistant football coach is the head coach of the baseball team..I can't imagine a coach pulling double duty would hurt himself by "wearing out" his own players...

 

Right now my son is lifting three days a week and practicing basketball 4 or 5 days a week....So far he is holding up fine....I guess it depends on the individual doing the work....

I think the thing not being told about Union City is that only Freshmen lift during last period at school. All upperclassmen are in an actual class instead of lifting. I'm not saying that the Freshmen don't make a big difference, but UC only had 2 Freshmen last year and neither started.

When weight lifting regardless of sport or the time always but always stretch before and after your lifts. It does make an athletic difference.

 

 

shoot...take that advice a step farther...when getting out of bed or standing up from sitting in the lazy boy watching the CWS in Omaha, or anytime you've been still for a while, by all means stretch before and after you stand up. It does make a difference in whether you walk, waddle or drag yourself to the coffee pot.

    • 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.
    • An FYI: To see how an opponent has done against another opponent since 2001- go to the game by clicking on one of the teams. Click the G beside the game. For example, Milan: The info will show you the previous matchups and other info.
    • All these college signees went yo other schools for 3 years, were getting college offers then transferred to Bearden. It’s not like this staff did much to develop them.    The BBall coaches son and the Seymour transfer were some of the most talented QBs in the region, and you guys developed them into QBs who might complete one pass a game.
