Chattanooga Times Free Press...............it s the local news paper in the Chattanooga area. You ll have to go back a couple of pages/weeks to find the stats on the LOCAL kids. Go to the website and you can look at all the stats.

 

 

Thanks my simple mind and way of thinking was "TFP" Tennessee Freshman Players.

I think that amos kid from silverdale is pretty stout...hes batting .590 and hes one of the best centerfielders ive ever seen...my wildcats dont have very many talented freshman so i think the amos kid has my vote....

 

This Kid Eats & Sleeps Baseball, He also played for the River City Rage. Oh yea Great Parents too.

Look man, being a frshman starting on varsity is NOT A BIG DEAL in 1a ball !!!!!!!!!!! Thats why parents send there kids to these small schools...........they get playing time. Could nt even make the team anywhere else in most cases. Now saying that theres always the exception which comes around rarely that you ll have a real stud but when you ve got some of these freshman batting .400-500 against mostly flops around town thats nothing to bragg about, i would love to see these kids challenged is what you need to become better as player, i seen in the TFP where the majority of the stat leaders are from small 1a schools with no pitching and no defense from the looks of the stolen bases stats. I know some of the people in the top 5 and you could nt get them to stay in the batters box in middle school because they were scared to death when real pitching was coming at them and could nt steal a base if they wanted to. /dry.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="

 

I Agree, Having Kids that play at a 1A school with Baseball History we have to play 2A ,3A and sometimes D2 teams to get ready for Region & State. Oh yea, All the players with high batting averages didn't do good against us. GO JACKETS!

The point being theres not much competetion in 1a schools as we all know..........then theres the public/recruiting 1a schools who rub it in the private 1a schools face. I didnt think the kids could hold to ya ll s pitching at all which just proves the point.

2seam,

 

Chandler started about half the time last year as an 8th grader on a team that played in the 1A state finals, DH'd when he did not start, and played in every game in the state tournament, including the finals. This kid is for real. He has the physical tools (guessing 6'00", 180) but more than that he has the mental toughness that great players have. He knows how to win and he'll find a way to deliver when winning time comes.

 

I don't know how anyone determines who the best freshman in the state is, but don't dismiss Noah Chandler as a kid who's getting a chance because he plays for a small school. You'll be hearing his name a lot for the next few years.

Never heard of him, where does he play ball ?????? Theres always exceptions as i said before but an 8th grader playing up, now come on man. I m sure he s good but it s like Volleyball,Basketball and evrything else in 1a.....it s not a big deal to play up when people are hurt or sick or whatever the case may be.

Two seam has no clue what baseball talent is, go back and read some of his earlier post. I'd like to se him face some fomer 1A players like Mikey Minor, Will Clinard, and Logan Darnell when they were freshman pitchers in class 1a.

 

I'd also like for him to compare his freshman skills with former 1A stud hitters that have recently come thru programs like USJ, JCS, Goodpasture, FCS, that are now Collegate stars at programs like UT, Cumberland, Lipscomb, Trevecca, and Vandy. Granted now USJ and Goodpasture are in 2a but 4 years ago they were in 1a and I find it amazing how quickly they went from 1a title contenders to 2a State Champs. Those 2 prgrams now own the AA class and regularly beat AAA programs who are brave enough to schedule them. The difference in the "top" 1A programs and the 2A and 3A programs is non-existent. USJ, JCS, FCS, and Goodpasture all play anyone who will schedule them and win more than their share. They also turn out as more collegiate talent per student ratio than most of the larger AAA and AA schools. Get a clue 2 seamer.

2seam,

I have personally seen Chandler play and he is for real. Jcs obviously doesn't play in a good district or region but that shouldn't take away from his talent. He can hit to all fields pretty well and is a great utility player in the field. Don't take anything away from him because he plays in 1a.

    • 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.
    • All these college signees went yo other schools for 3 years, were getting college offers then transferred to Bearden. It’s not like this staff did much to develop them.    The BBall coaches son and the Seymour transfer were some of the most talented QBs in the region, and you guys developed them into QBs who might complete one pass a game.
