TB, how do you feel about your squad this year since you really didn't lose anything from last year? Did you gain anyone over the summer? Good luck and I hope to catch a game down the road this year.

 

We should be better this year but so should everyone else!!!! Our district is going to be a battle every night.I really see 3 to 4 legitimate teams capable of winning the league. We still have a long way to go but our kids are working hard everyday & learning what it takes to be successful. We are blessed with a great group of kids!!!! So are you at Hillwood? Helping with basketball or strictly softball? Come by & check us out sometime.

I am the head softball coach at Hillwood. I am the boys varsity assistant at East Lit Magnet school. We are AA in the district with MLK, Portland and Lipscomb. We should have a pretty good team. I guess strictly on talent, Smyrna and Lavergne should be good. Hendersonville, Gallatin and you should be as well. I don't know how good the Sims kid is at MJ. Beat the press, win the game. I miss some of the kids, but not the other stuff. Tell Dr. Duncan that he can...ah, just forget it. He ain't worth the breath. Hope the family is doing well. KD

This district is completely up for grabs in my opinion. Gallatin is always tough with Coach Luna, and return most of the team, including a tough sophomore class.

 

LaVergne is very talented with 6'5 G Antjuan Koger, PG Chris Darden, and shooter Nate Hancock...

 

Smyrna is loaded with height, with 6'8 Kenyonna Swader, and 6'9 Brett Warner, but MUST find some guard play...

 

Hendersonville lost a lot, but plays hard and shoots the ball well, and returns Jr shooter Andy Wicke...

 

I love the Mt Juliet tandem of G Josh Helton and BF Shawn Sims. Helton was a 20ppg scorer as a soph, and Sims is a very athletic 6'6 prospect with a big upside, but must get more aggressive...

    • 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. 
    • No my fight, but ... if they were already college-caliber prior to transferring to BHS, and they already had FBS interest, and they end up at an FBS school, how did Bearden do anything for them?
