He has won the district seasons for the last 4 years, and won the district and region tournaments for the last 3 years. For the last 4 years he is at 113-18.

Absolutely!!! I wonder WWCMD if faced with a Greenville Situation? I bet it would be an interesting discussion thread if there weren't so many things to talk about here at tourney season. /popcorneater.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":popcorneater:" border="0" alt="popcorneater.gif" />

Two that should be recognized for doing well:

 

Cleveland's Powell-Her state tournament team last year graduated three Division I-signing seniors (NC State, Belmont, Western KY) and two who would be starting this year, a post and a guard, aren't on the team. One moved and one is focusing on another sport. Another starter has been hurt several weeks. Still her team won 22 games and finished at the top of their district.

 

Sequatchie's Barker-They're now going with basically one player who was expected to be starting coming into the season, the other four starters were expected to be main backups (one senior who started a little last year and three freshmen). Three left the team and another was hurt six games ago. One of the three signed Division I, one was receiving small college interest and another was a good scorer at times, she had 20 points in the district tournament title game last year. The player hurt was among the Chattanooga area leaders in every category (points, steals, rebounds, assists, also averaged 4 blocks) and should be playing in college next year. They've managed to win 21 games and tied for first in the district (15-1), they got the top seed in the tournament on a tie-breaker. Five of six losses were to Tennessee AAA teams or Georgia 4A teams, the team was leading in the other loss (CCS) late in the third, before the player mentioned was injured.

    • 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.
