Seems as though many have forgotten why we split. It is not a public-private split,it's a scholarship/non-scholarship split. Some schools that gave financial aid were out of control. They violated tssaa rules,quotas on scholarships and were recruiting athletes with a passion.

With all the legal action by a few schools and the unlimited financial aid now,IMO you won't see the split go away. I do feel for the smaller private schools who have to compete against the very big and powerful private schools.

Seems as though the tssaa is fine with the split so I would guess we will stay this way.

Bearman, I have stated on many threads that I have been in favor of a total public/private split for years, but I THINK we will have to wait and see how the BA/TSSAA lawsuit turns out. Many think the courts may force the TSSAA to reform or change our system. Who knows where this thing will go, but I'd bet my old Buick (if I were a betting man) changes are waiting in the wings for 2005!

The case with BA is over,from what I understand. The Supreme Court sent it back to Cincinnati and the recruiting rule was upheld. Carlton Flatts lawsuit against Ronnie Carter and the tssaa was dropped. I will be very shocked if we go back together. What year is that old Buick?

      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.
