Ooltewah is returning 16 of 21 players from last years roster. The only thing we're missing is a coach. Hopefully we'll know who our coach is in the next couple months. We Should be really solid the next couple of years. Who else will be?

Ooltewah should be strong next year.

 

Who are the potential coaches the Owls are looking at? From what I've heard, the new coach better be someone that can reign in Ooltewah's parents, quickly.

 

Good luck to the Owls.

 

(Back on topic, I think Farragut returns a bunch, too.)

Around Middle Tennessee, Brentwood Academy returns alot of players and should dominate D-II in this area. In AAA, I believe Ravenwood & Centennial will return alot from their teams. Both Franklin and Brentwood lost alot of good players. In AA, Lipscomb returns a strong senior class and should be the top team in AA in this area. Dont know much about Rutherford, Wilson or Sumner County teams.

There are alot of rumors flying around about the new coach as to who its going to be. I have hard that they've got it down to 4 coaches and should be naming our new head coach by the first of july. And you're right, any coach -- especially a new one -- has to learn to handle all the parents.

What are you talking about "handling parents"

 

The clubhouse, field and dugout area are reserved for the coaches and players. Parents are allowed to discuss wild women, NASCAR, fishing, etc... with the coach but baseball and their son is off limits. The only person that is allowed to speak baseball with the coach is the player. No exceptions to this rule and if you don't like the rule take your son and go to another school.

I think you know exactly what I'm talking about in "handling parents."

So, no parents work on the field? In many programs, parents expect their child's playing time to equate to their time working on the field.

Somehow, I don't really believe this and it's doubtful that many others do either.

 

I'm not slamming the program, Ooltewah has very good recent tradition and they had a super sophomore class this year. The "handling parents" statement had to do with what I've heard and observed in the past couple of years.

When I was coaching that is how I ran my program. If you wish to do something different , to each their own.

      Who vandalized Maryville's Football Field?

      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.
