Dyersburg's first baseman

Yesterday in the DL/Dyersburg game, the go ahead run for Lipscomb was scored after an umpire overturned a call. Lipscomb Coach Ernie Smith, appealed the original call at first to the homeplate umpire, he over ruled the call and the runner was safe. Naturally, both sets of bleachers saw things the way that was best for their favorite team. The Dyersburg coach came out and calmly defended his team. I thought both coaches stood up for their players in a very sportsmanlike way.

In today's Tennessean, the Dyersburg first baseman, Tyler Lyons, was quoted as saying "They made the right call switching it back. I definitely came off of the bag."

What a tribute to that young man! In a day where many athletes look to blame officials, this young man stuck up for them, even when the call hurt his team.

Both coaches handled the situation professionally and Tyler Lyons proved himself to be mature beyond his years. He is a credit to his family, his team and his school. I hope good things will always happen for him.

He may be classy but cursing at the umpire at the end of a game is not the right thing to do! You may change your opinion if you saw how he acted after the game tonite!!!!!!

What happened with the catcher from DL pushing a player from Dyersburg? Did that happen?

 

 

 

I think the 1st baseman for Dyersburg is a good kid and did a classy thing admitting the call was correct.

 

Its a very emotional game when its down to the end like this. He had a tough nite at the plate and probably got frustrated with the last strike call. That shouldnt undermine the classy thing he did the day before.

 

Dont know what occurred with the DL players except the emotions at the end of the game but, again, it was an emotional game for everyone. Those are two good teams that played hard. Lets leave it at that.

    • 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.
