I seem to recall after bowing out to McMinn in the sectionals your sophomore year a standing ovation from all of the Cookeville players and parents for your valiant effort in goal in that match. Harsh treatment? Yeah, there was a disconnect regarding club soccer; your teammates didn't understand why you traveled to play on a Nashville team that really wasn't any better than the team in Cookeville. The harsh treatment didn't start until after you said, "Well, I'm just going to take a year off from soccer," and then subsequently enrolled at another school in the district. You put the Cookeville team in a bind, and your actions affected every player on the team. And that's why people are upset.

 

Regarding Jerry Falwell, I wasn't making fun of him. By saying "Falwell Compound," I was merely referring to the lore regarding the fence that encloses all of Liberty University from the outside world. But I would hesitate to call Falwell an "amazing man" when he has said things like this:

 

"AIDS is not just God's punishment for homosexuals, it is God's punishment for the society that tolerates homosexuals."

 

I'm done. Sorry for hijacking the thread.

ok, that standing ovation was because everyone knew that I was going to move that summer. The only reason I did not was because we could not sell our house.

TUSC offered better coaching and Goalkeeper training (The lipscomb assistant coach)

 

I decided not to play for Cookeville for reasons of which only me my family and a few teammates at Blackman know. I chose to disclose my reason for quiting out of respect for certain people, But no one seems to know that.

Lets be serious did you really think that I wasn't going to play soccer for a year? No one asked me why I quit not even the coach or the assistant, (wonder who that is) and that was reason enough to leave. It's like one of my friends said, God meant for you to be in the boro." Thats all there is to it. but I do take everyone's anger as a complement.

 

As for Falwell, I think its awesome that he came out and took a stance against things like that.

 

I to apologize for going off topic.

 

GO BLAZE

Better than the last two years and thanks for asking. Good luck and best wishes as you head off to college. Check in from time to time and stay in touch. Maybe you can make it back for the girl's state tournament and we can hook up again.

Preseason games are about to start. What are some of the toughest preseason games and how do you think each team will do?

 

 

Siegel's preseason is tough.

08/14 BGA (0-0-0) 7:00 PM

08/16 % at Independence (0-0-0) 6:30 PM

08/21 at Centennial (0-0-0) 7:00 PM

 

Bga is the only one I believe they may lose, but depends on how subs are used through the preseason, then its any ones guess.

I am not sure that wins in losses in preseason games mean anything. Preseason is a time to experiment with players, try new things, and get into game shape. I mean I realize that getting the wins are nice but in the long run a preseason result means nothing. Just a thought.

Very true. It helps to give you an estimate of where you stand. Are they playing independence or playing a different team at independence. Because that doesn't seem like a tough game.

    • 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.
