Probabaly the dumbest most un-informed post I have ever read here. I would put Memphis talent against any school you wish to put up overall. Good grief that was stupid.

My mistake. I meant Memphis programs were behind the Nashville and Knoxville programs.

 

I am so sorry. Please forgive me. I am so ashamed. That was stupid.

Hey man, I was just responding the statement of talent, as far as coaching goes, Memphis Public schools has the WORST HS coaching in the state. They cannot develop talent or they cannot discipline their teams. If the public schools could get the talented kids to even play football, and develop them into players then Memphis would dominate year in and year just because of the shear size of the city. There are a lot of kids who are much more talented than the MUS players, they just don't have the coaching. Memphis only has so much funding that is provided for HS sports, it is not a good situation in that town.Top

Your first post was preceded by my post:

 

"Can't disagree with you there...while Mississippi has won a disproportionate share of its games against Tennessee schools, in many cases, we are sending primarily our Memphis-area schools against schools from all over Mississippi. I think it's fair to say that, of the main areas of Tennessee, Memphis programs are behind Knoxville-area and Nashville-area programs in terms of talent, so Mississippi isn't necessary getting a good geographical sample of Tennessee schools to play."

 

I meant to say "talented programs", not "talent". Sure, as I wrote it, it didn't make sense, because Memphis does have, probably, the best talent in the state - it's just poorly coached, or socio-economic factors keep some athletes away from the playing fields. Was a resonse warranted? Sure. But one as scathing as "the dumbest most un-informed post I have ever read here...Good grief that was stupid."? I was hoping that you may have read some of my previous posts to give you some anecdotes to allow you to second-guess if I was really that dumb or stupid.

 

I corrected my mistake, but I thought an apology may have been in order.

 

Anyway, we need to kill this minor tussle. We all could have chosen some words better, whether in pleading our case or assessing someone else's case. I had to respond to plead my case, as there are probably thousands of "dumb" and "uninformed' posts on this site where the posters aren't making honest mistakes, thereby precluding mine as the most (accidentally) egregious on the site.

 

Anyway, I (we) can't move on by bringing it up again! Allow canines in repose to remain in a prone position.

    • And can you tell me who those two quarterbacks were, and every kid that was put into college from Bearden is a Bearden kid? It’s kind of why they graduated from Bearden.   and I would definitely not consider ETSU “waste”…
    • Most of this is complete gibberish. But the one part I could decipher is putting kids in college. This coaching staff hasn’t put a single Bearden kid in college. They completed wasted one of the best WRs in East TN and have ruined two talented QBs. All because they’re in over their heads. 
    • Well, I’d hope the new coaching staff thinks they are all that because they can always walk around the school, anytime they want, thinking that, especially for what they’ve done for the student athletes and the players, putting more kids in college in his first season than the old coaching staff did in numerous years combined, but we will just sweep over that because I know you don’t like facts. But trust me, nobody wanted Mr. Big britches, made the star player switch to quarterback, which is ultimately the reason he ended up transferring to play the position. He loved, but unfortunately, had to be at another school because Mr. Big Britches doesn’t like when a teenager knows more than him, but can’t expect much coming from a guy who used all class throwing pencils up into the ceiling and making fun of football kids who were failing class right to their face, and in front of numerous students, even projecting on the board most of the time.
    • After that first paragraph, I can see why you’re a TA and not a teacher. Have you made the move from South Knoxville to Bearden yet?    Maybe he left because he is an actual teacher and coach, and didn’t want to be associated with a group of foul mouthed middle school coaches who like to pretend they’re big time. 
    • Yeah and the coach is gone. Whole bizarre situation here. We played them a couple of times at MTSU last few years. She was a player for sure.
