Jared Allen of Polk County, remember the name. He's around 6'2, 200 lbs. He's started every game batting in the clean-up spot. He's hitting right at .500, has 7 HR's , around 35 RBI and scored just as many runs. Not to mention he is 5-0 on the mound with around a 2.30 ERA and 2 saves.

In the lower southeast Tennessee quadrant, Jared "Jarhead" Allen seems to be without any peers. I haven't seen him play much, but his numbers are eye-popping and he is doing it at the plate and from the mound. He is a legitimate stud from Polk County.

 

he is very good. although i find it very hard to believe that you haven't seen him play very much, since you know a nickname that only people that know him well, or are from polk county, call him. but yes jared can hit. not as convinced on the mound as in the box, but the kid can play the outfield and hit with anyone, except maybe a curveball

according to the TFP.......theres some freshmen in the top 5 in alot of stats but look who some of these stat leaders are playing.

 

 

Jared Allen is 6'0 195# he finished the season hitting .465 with 7HR and 42 RBI's with 40 runs scored, five doubles and 2 triples. As for pitching he is 5-0 with 50 K's in 33 innings and a save as well. Five of his hr's came against; Walker Valley, McMinn Central, Marion, and Plainsview Alabama. I don't think you can question his performance against anyone or the teams they play, in fact he hit better against the better teams and good pitching. Remember he is just a freshman and hit clean up. Most teams didn't give him alot to hit after they faced him a second time and those in the district didn't throw him anything he could turn on.

My son played against him when they were younger, but not since they were 10 or so. We've played with alot of the same people so I've heard his name mentioned alot and I've never heard anything bad. His stats speak for themselves and AA is alot better than A ball. There are a couple of kids on some other teams in the area that posted eye popping numbers that would not have hit .300 for Ooltewah's freshmen.

Most of the one s leading the area playing UP on varsity could nt hit .200 at Ooltewah much less play UP on varsity and make any difference at all besides warming up the pine.

    • 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.
