If i ask coach a question i ask if my son is working hard? If he is working hard then it is a coaches descion and my son is doing what he is suppose to be doing he just has to get better if he is not working hard then it is his fault...a lot of players are going to be better than my boys and they cant control that but they can control how hard they work...

I want to jump on the doing somthing wrong at school subject that was brought up in the article... When i visit a teacher about my one of my sons i always say right off the bat i know my son was wrong i have to take the teacher off of the defensive because they are always attacked by parents because THEIR KID IS MAKING A D OR F IT IS THE TEACHERS FAULT. NOT the fact that their CHILD didnt do their homework or turn it in. Or its the teachers fault that child mis behaved in class in stead of the childs fault

PARENTS BLAME YOUR KIDS FOR THEIR ACTIONS AND NOT TEACHERS AND OTHER KIDS!!!!!! If you have a problem with a teacher or a coach keep it between YOU AND YOUR SPOUSE dont let the kids know. In all my dealing with teachers their was only 1 teacher that i found real fault in BUT MY SON NEVER KNEW THAT i told him to do whatever he had to do to pass the class.

The kids are good but i think we as a society have a lot of parents who dont let their kids take responsiblilties or let them make excuses for their actions so they never feel anything is their fault

sorry i got on a soapbox their

Excellent post. You are exactly right when you say that parents don't let their kids take responsibility. And we all wonder why society has morphed into what it is now... Nine times out of 10, the teacher/coach isn't at fault; instead, it's a student/player issue. I can remember when I was in high school (not that long ago might I add), kids always wanted to blame the teacher for giving them a bad grade or giving them too much work to do. Whatever happened to just shutting up and studying? There is a very good chance that if they just s*cked it up, did the work, and studied, those kids never would have received a bad grade in the first place. Yes, parents do need to stand up for their kids sometimes, but a parent also needs to stand up for the teacher every once in a while.

    • 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.
