Thanks for the info. It would be good to know who the coach is and how to reach them. I know a kid who might want to start workouts when he gets back into town in a few day...but if you google up Lavergne High football, you get a website that hasn't been updated in about 3 years.

 

Its fine......tell him to go to the weight room and meet up with Coach Grooms at 5:00. Nothing is mandatory right now due to summer activities like camps and things. July 12 is the 1st day of mandatory sessions, so he has time.

Who is the head coach and who are the coaches ( both Varsity and Freshman)?

 

Coach Stanton Stevens is the new head coach and OC. Coach Stevens was the head coach at Knoxville's Austin-East High School in 1999, where he turned a down program around quickly -- winning a state championship in 2001 and earning Class 3A Coach of the Year honors and finished there with a 50-13 record. Coach Stevens then coached Oak Ridge with some "up and down" times between the years of 2005-08 and finished with a record of 30-16, taking them to the Class 5A state runner-up trophy in 05.

 

Coach Bledsoe will be the DC. He’s a Veteran coach with both High School and Small collage experience in Virginia and Greater Metro Atlanta.

 

Coach Grooms will stay on as the only remaining coach from last years staff as the DL/Strength coach

 

Coach Duggan form Gallatin and coached at La Vergne middle last year will coach WR/DB's

 

RB coach?????? but will soon

 

OL Coach = Coach Stephens ….. "No Relation" Coached with LHS Track in the throwing events and played D1 football.

 

Coach Miller will be the freshmen coach……all I know is he was at Steward Creek coaching last year

 

Hope this helps!

Coach Miller is the freshman coach at LHS. He is coming over from Stewarts Creek, where he was the Head Coach there.

Bledsoe has a ton of experience in East TN, and down in GA...played football at Virginia Tech and coached college for a while.

Duggin is from Westmoreland (not Gallatin), but it is near Gallatin. He coached at LMS last year, and will be coaching WR's at LHS.

Stephens is from Ohio, played D1, and is very familiar with most of the players due to his track record at the school.

Correct me if I'm wrong thunder but is this not the OL Coach’s first year coaching football at any level. It’s a pretty tough assignment to be an OL coach for your 1st year of coaching. I know he's had some success with the track program at Lavergne, taking 1st and 2nd in the Discus at State but you know football is a different ball game.

    • Deja vu all over again, 7 yrs apart. SMDH Does anybody talk to each other?
    • 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.
