Ok folks, I saw what everyone else saw and all I can say is... it's pre-season. You had alot of missmatched districts, teams playing line-ups that you wouldn't normally see and others starting their big guns on every game. I would put zero stock in the results of this weekend as your conclusions won't pan out into the regular season. It was a good look for high school coaches to guage new players and a warm up for those who feel they have their starting 9. Other than that the travel ball coaches got a good look at prospective talent. That's about it.

Your right about the line-ups because we started a couple line-ups that we will never see in the regular season.

Still it was a great chance for young players to get some playing time that wouldn't normally get it.

Your right high school coaches aren't concerned about what travel ball coaches got to see. (I actually think there are alot of HS coaches that don't even know what travel ball is)/flower.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":flower:" border="0" alt="flower.gif" />

 

But most of the better players can't wait for the futile HS season to be over so they can get on to what really matters. Most of the great players on the HS teams are developed by travel ball coaches over the years not some

wash up school teacher who happens to be one of the few HS coaches that have a large amount of very committed

travel ball players that play year round which enables their respective HS to have a competitive team each year.

So once again your right most HS coaches don't care about any other coach, they just think they make these players great for the short time they get them........what an ego trip that must be.

 

I'm sure there are some that do realize this & understand the hard work that these committed players & parents put in throughout the year so that they are able to realize success for their HS teams.

    • 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.
