I saw it in yesterday's Knox News Sentinel.

 

Seem to remember that Dennison had like 12. Fulton had three guys with more than 20. And Fulton only made either 2 or 3 3-pointers.

fulton will make it back to the big dance again. db will have a tough time in the big 8 this year. lookout for boone to be in the top as well as south!!

I have a tough time seeing South at the top of any basketball conference unless a lot has changed over there. They have not really been competitive in basketball in quite a few years. But I may get proven wrong. I noticed that the two top finishers in the 3-point shooting contest at the Jamboree were both from Science Hill. That may spell trouble for the rest of the conference.

Indian Basketball may mirror Indian Football this year. Could be a losing season. Science Hill will dominate the Big 8. Nobody has anything for them up here.

Where does the problem lie? Is it lack of talent, poor development in middle school, or just plain apathy? What has changed since Buck Van Huss passed away?

Buck Van Huss was one of the best high school coaches in the nation. "The" best in my opinion.

We had a chance to get George Pitts (second only to Buck) as head coach, and the school board bungled that one. It has cost the school a fortune in lost revenue.

The talent level this year is as low as I have ever seen it at DB. (football/basketball) So theres not alot to work with. Morgan is a pretty good coach when he has alot of talent to work with. But not a coach that will ever go futher than one game in the state tournment. I think we all know that by now.

    • 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.
