If you??™re a fan of any Southeastern Conference basketball team other than Vanderbilt, you might want to cast your eyes elsewhere on this page. Go ahead and scan the state wrestling tournament news or spring training, or check to see if Lane Kiffin has stepped on any more toes.

 

If you choose to read further, be warned: Breakfast might be tougher to swallow after learning more about Commodores signee John Jenkins. He has a knack for leaving opponents feeling queasy.

 

The 6-foot-5 guard for Gallatin??™s Station Camp High School leads the nation in scoring with 42.8 points per game. He hasn??™t scored fewer than 30 points or made less than 50 percent of his shots from the field in any of his 27 games this season. Tennessee??™s Class AA Mr. Basketball last year, he??™s a finalist for the award again this year.

 

This kid could be in a phone booth with Shaquille O??™Neal and find a way to get open. His one game of merely 30 points came against East Robertson, which is coached by Station Camp coach Seth Massey??™s brother-in-law.

 

???John scored all 30 by halftime, and I didn??™t let him play in the second half,??? Massey said. ???It was right before Christmas, and since we were playing against family, I kind of felt like I had to take it easy.

 

???What makes John so good is he??™s the smartest player on the court. He just knows how to get open and can see things nobody else sees. Every night he does something that makes me say ??

    • Deja vu all over again, 7 yrs apart. SMDH Does anybody talk to each other?
    • 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.
