Another player to add to this list is MBA TE/DT Joseph Sloan, 6-5, 240 lb playing along side big Preston Bailey and Ben Bartholomew. Strong blocker, athletic, nice hands and is playing on both sides of the ball-getting some D-1 attention. Took unofficial visit to UT as a sophomore and invited UTs first scrimmage this fall. A stand out at Vandy Senior camp and asked to be at all home games. Attended GaTech Senior camp with BA's Alex Bullard.

i know this has been said before but there cant be many better than eric gordon of hillsboro

 

 

bigboss.

Eric Gordon is a very good prospect. He showed well @ Hoover in the 7 on 7, and has done well so far this yr. The further Hillsboro goes, the higher his stock will go. He needs to get to @ least one combine and one camp this spring to verify his #'s. Get him to Atlanta or better yet Columbus. He needs to show out against those guys in one on one drills. After that he should be off to the races. I really like him at Corner at the next level. Great feet, and his hip rotation is very natural. He also has to turn and run with very good players every day at practice. I think the M. Brown kid @ Harding might be the another high end rivals kid if he chooses the Gridiron over the hardwood. I know Zak Tait at Catholic is on the rivals Top 100 watch list for 09, and the Scout Top 50 South but he is out for the rest of the yr. with a knee. Too early to tell, but the most recent rivals article on him indicated that Southern Cal, Oklahoma, LSU, Florida, TN, Bama, etc were still interested. Those are the top 3 for 09.

    • 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.
    • 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.
