Best Defenders

Peter Shankles (#33) was good from West Knox, especially considering it was his first year playing. As far as other teams that we saw, I would have to say the best I faced was Brentwood. You can't really pick out one guy that was good from them, they went five poles deep and all were solid, and as everyone knows, their goalie is incredible.

I didn't watch too many D1 games, but i do agree that Bailey from MBA is a great goalie, and of course the MUS and McCallie have good goalies. From D2 I know that brentwood's goalie is the best in D2. Very good goalie. I think that Robert Rogers from Ryan is an underrated goalie. He made some good saves this year and kept Ryan in a lot of games. As far as defenders go, number 26 for Ryan is a great defender and shut a lot of team's key players down. I didn't get to see MUS play, but I did notice number 5 for McCallie, he was a great Dpole. I saw him shut sloan sanders down and that Houston kid.

Agreed that brentwood's goalie is the best in D2 and the number 26 from Father Ryan played some of the most solid defense i have ever seen.

    • 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.
