Trust me if the T$$AA thought they could make money off of it they would!

 

I think one year at CN the next at a place like Vandy. Then at UT then back west. I wish it were played on grass though. Injury comes from fake grass at a higher rate in my opinion.

 

 

 

According to Mike Van Brugen the Head Trainer @ CN, since installation of Field Turf @ CN they have had NO torn knees. All injuries have been on natural grass. The cleats do not stick like they do on grass. The older artifical turf I would agree w/ your statement.

How did Rod Wilks do?

 

i only saw the 2nd half, but he caught a couple line of scrimmage passes that went for short 1st downs. he caught a pass inside the 5 from about the 50, but got called for a push off. also saw a highlight where an intended pass to him was picked off. someone who saw the 1st half can elaborate better than me.

 

i did like the spear on the side of his helmet /thumb[1].gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":thumb:" border="0" alt="thumb[1].gif" />

Region 4-5A was VERY WELL represented...if anyone had any doubt about the regions supremacy. So many from our region started..that should be an honor and shows our talent level as well as the great coaching in our region. 8 of the 10 Region 4 players in the all star game started...IMPRESSIVE (3 from Riverdale, 2 from Blackman, and 1 from Siegel, Smryna, and LaVergne)...although im sure Sonny woulda started if he had wanted to play.

 

East Starters

Offense

Left Tackle: Adam Smith (Blackman)

Left Guard: David Spurlock (Riverdale)

Center: Travis Lillianthal (Riverdale)

Wide Receiver: Rod Wilks (Smyrna)

Wide Receiver: Chris Gray (LaVergne)

 

Defense

Defensive Tackle: LaVarious Verge (Riverdale)

Defensive Tackle: Montori Hughes (Siegel)

Cornerback: Mauricio Wallace (Blackman)

 

I want to congratulate these players again...they showed they were the best of the best at their respective positions. They are all great talents, but again this couldnt happen without the great coaches we have in our region. Glad to see Coach Shad representing the region on the coaching staff also.

 

Great Game and good luck to all of these fine young men.

i was also thinking the same thing about the spear.. but then thinking about it, if he were at riverdale his stats would have stunk cause riverdale never passes the ball, EVER.. and that play was not pass interference (atleast in my opinion).. the east did dominate though with both Spurlock and Rod both having pancake blocks

    • Deja vu all over again, 7 yrs apart. SMDH Does anybody talk to each other?
    • 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.
