ETfan,I would say twice that many played a great amount this year and that should help with next years team.Watson is a fine coach and I have really enjoyed talking with him over the years.I don't know what coach Clark will do with the offense next year,but I think we will have some good people at key positions.I think Allen and Paul can give us a strong blocking fullback in front of Chris and the other backs. That's a position everybody knows I have a soft spot for.Rusty has great hands and can block as well.That still leaves Derrick and Sean at skill positions .It could be a great year if the big boys come ready to play.

I agree with you Batman, Allen at fullback is a strong move. He did a fine job for the Indians last year.

I think the georgia tech flexbone would fit db great. Chris would play where dwyer plays and you could have swafford and steele at the wing backs and with seabolt at quarterback this would keep other teams guessing all season. Also this would take out the fullbacks who many times during the season seemed tired from playing both ways.

It looks good on paper,but I would have a couple of questions.Can our line be mobil enough to pick up all the run blitzes they would see ? Can our coaches put a new system in that they don't run and make it work ? The whole thing will start up front,nomatter what offense we run.I think Seabolt and Steele will play both ways as well this year.I would rest the fullbacks on pass plays.Instead of putting a fullback at wideout,I would put somebody like Swafford in as an extra receiver.We could have Chris and Swafford in the game at the same time with our old offense.Arm strenth might be a factor at QB,but there are a lot of shorter routes that will work with a great running game.GC had a lot of great plays called this year that were brought back because of mistakes.Mistakes cost us three games.Even great teams like we had in 2006 and 2008 couldn't overcome mistakes .Our team has to play smarter and work harder starting now.

I wonder if the "Team" is hitting the weights yet. Everybody else is.

I know of ten for sure that are in the class Devin is assisting coach Barrett with.I just hope that we can get more guys going to the gym on their own as well.At the same time,we have to get the players out for football again ." ALL" the young guys need to make sure they talk to all the athletes and get them interested in DB football before we have a replay of the last couple of years.This is something I heard the Holston kids are trying to do right now for the future of Central.While trying to keep their team from going to DB,South,TH and North,plus some of them are going to the gyms as well.

      OK, well, that’s because two quarterbacks can’t start. That’s football 101. The main quarterback won the starting job, so he was on varsity, and the Seymour transfer did not win the starting job. He played some varsity. He was mainly junior varsity, and he balled out when healthy, so for the starting quarterback who’s been starting varsity since his freshman year, if you have any form of proof that he’s gotten worse, somehow, whether that means stats or whatnot, please feel free to share.

      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.
