Just an FYI: Lipscomb does not have lights on the high school field because the surrounding neighborhood will not approve their usage in the residential neighborhood. They allow the football field because it is only 5 nights a year basically. The athletic complex is not on the actual campus.

 

Their are multiple examples of this happening in Nashville alone. Father Ryan has only recently gotten approval for their football stadium to be on campus because the neighborhood fought like crazy against it. It happens to be about 2 miles from Lipscomb. DCA did not have lights until a few years ago after trying to get them approved since the 80's. These are private schools that are not on governement owned land so they have to adhere to the zoning already in place or appeal. Lipscomb and Ryan just happen to be in a very high rent area where the residents can afford to fight it.

 

I actually coach against Lipscomb and would love nothing more than to be able to beat them in baseball (beating them in basketball this year was especially nice), but to get on here and say things that you know nothing about is silly. They have an excellent team with 10 seniors. They were state-runner up last year for a reason. They play on a field with no lights for a reason. Good luck next season. Move on.

 

 

I know where Lip. is and the respect they get. I also know about the lights and why they do not have them. This started a few post up, when Thesolution said South Side/Lexington should plan their graduation around the region baseball game. This rubbed me wrong and I spoke my mind. South Side would no more do that. Then Lip would skip bacculauate to put up Lights. lol Im just not going to take what they said lying down.

I agree with Solution...school administrators should either respect the TSSAA calendar and not schedule graduation ceremonies on that Friday or change the TSSAA calendar...the TSSAA is run by school administrators for heavens sake!. Kids shouldnt be put in the situation that they have to miss one event or the other.

 

The issue with lights at Lipscomb isnt an issue. J SouthSide was leaving last Friday if the game didnt start at 2pm regardless if Lipscomb had lights or not.

      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.
