Here's Murphy's top 5. This is different from earlier posts regarding the coaches’ top 10. I think it's pretty interesting that he's got a public school (from West TN) as the No. 1 team in the state. There has only been 2 public 1A teams win the championship since the 5 classification system began in '93 (Trousdale Co. and S. Pitt.). Oh and the last time a public school from West TN won the 1A championship was '89. And that was none other than Bruceton.

 

Murphy's Preseason 1A Top 5:

 

1. Bruceton

2. Friendship Christian

3. Gordonsville

4. Hampton

5. Mt. Pleasant

 

 

Is Bruceton really that good? Do they have alot of returning starters from last year's team?

They should be pretty good. They will have at least 9 seniors who started last year, and 3 others who have played some in rotation. They also have two very experienced juniors, one of whom is 6'6" 280.

Their were only 5 or 6 seniors on last years team. Most of the kids were juniors.

 

They look good and this should be their year. Time will tell as they have McKenzie and Huntingdon early in the schedule.

    • And can you tell me who those two quarterbacks were, and every kid that was put into college from Bearden is a Bearden kid? It’s kind of why they graduated from Bearden.   and I would definitely not consider ETSU “waste”…
    • Most of this is complete gibberish. But the one part I could decipher is putting kids in college. This coaching staff hasn’t put a single Bearden kid in college. They completed wasted one of the best WRs in East TN and have ruined two talented QBs. All because they’re in over their heads. 
    • Well, I’d hope the new coaching staff thinks they are all that because they can always walk around the school, anytime they want, thinking that, especially for what they’ve done for the student athletes and the players, putting more kids in college in his first season than the old coaching staff did in numerous years combined, but we will just sweep over that because I know you don’t like facts. But trust me, nobody wanted Mr. Big britches, made the star player switch to quarterback, which is ultimately the reason he ended up transferring to play the position. He loved, but unfortunately, had to be at another school because Mr. Big Britches doesn’t like when a teenager knows more than him, but can’t expect much coming from a guy who used all class throwing pencils up into the ceiling and making fun of football kids who were failing class right to their face, and in front of numerous students, even projecting on the board most of the time.
    • After that first paragraph, I can see why you’re a TA and not a teacher. Have you made the move from South Knoxville to Bearden yet?    Maybe he left because he is an actual teacher and coach, and didn’t want to be associated with a group of foul mouthed middle school coaches who like to pretend they’re big time. 
    • Yeah and the coach is gone. Whole bizarre situation here. We played them a couple of times at MTSU last few years. She was a player for sure.
