i hear that Lee and David are being courted by ga tech

 

every team sends letters but you can never put too much stock into these things unless players are getting calls and visits from coaches. here is some more good news. the guys have done well in the weight room testing this week. there is already a few 1000 lb lifters, and today purty broke the squat record for running backs by lifting 500 lbs.

keep up the hard work through spring practice.

Always good to hear the fellas are working hard in the weight room. Just curious how were Gilliam's numbers in the weight room? Has he put on much size or strength? Also what about the other potential O-Lineman are they putting up good numbers?

jacob is a lot stronger than he was this time last year. he is one of those guys flirting with the 1000 lb barrier. the other guys are just young right now and focusing on improvement instead breaking records.

Cant wait for Spring practice to see Purty and Hudson at RB they look to be pretty dang powerful this year. Also Greg Grieco and Gabe White look like they will be a quite the force on the D line. Too bad Coach Doucette wont be able to coach during the spring hes really good at lighting that fire in the boys with some oklahoma drill.

    • 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.
