It's gonna be embarassing for you when you look at the box score. AC had a whole lot more than that. This was a well played game all around. Not sure what happened after the game other than Powell refusing to shake hands. That's curious. We shook theirs when they beat us. Also, what's with No. 2 coming toward our side after the game and showing us his IQ level?

I just saw that stat from a powell player but i thought you all had more too but i was not sure. I have no clue about what happened after the game but from what i heard it got a little tense..anyways congratulations anderson county well played game and good luck next week.

AC came to the game focused and ready for war. Powell didn't come on until late in the game, but made a great effort to win. Great effort on both sides. I do wonder if Moberly had played, if things would have been different. However, I believe that it must have been a very hard, gut wrenching decision not to play him. I guess that was the right thing to do for the circumstances at hand (what ever they are, I do not need to know). My respect to the Powell HS administration and the Powell coaches. It could have been easy to just play him and not give any answers. They took the high road and it cost the team (maybe, maybe not). I believe this will be a profound lesson to all in this area who have heard about him not playing. Ethics, morals, discipline, and responsibility are lifes true staples. All should be thankful for that lesson. A shame one team had to lose.

Good job Powell. Great season. It will be even better next season.

Go AC.

Chip off the old block is what I have always heard. Each team takes the direction and ledership of its head coach. Was toonight an example of that? You be de judge!

 

Right. Being 11-1 really is a bad thing, isn't it? Funny that the putdown is coming from 0-10. As you said, "you be de judge". Sure does appear that those grapes are really sour.

 

Don't believe everything you read, DD. I think another post in this thread is leavng out a few key points about the post game verbal exchange. It wasn't just from one side. There is no room for pointing fingers in this one.

Bottom line is the Mobley kid let his team down and probably divided the team and hurt their chemistry for the playoffs.

HTV,

I never just said Powell and didn't mean to sound like that but both coaches played at the schools they now coach and they both were allowed to do things that weren't really good to do...some attitude wise and some recruiting wise.

I respect you and the Powell and Anderson Co. teams and just wish we could get back to where we were looking down instead of up at the standings. Every body has to go thru the bad times and I guess now is our turn but we will be back, I just dont know how long it will take.

I'm just not sure what you think Powell didn't do that they should have. Several players were dismissed this year for discipinary reasons. And we all know that a very talented player didn't play in the playoffs because he was suspended. What else should the Powell coaches and administration have done that they didn't?

 

Recruiting? If you have information on illegal recruiting I suggest you contact the TSSAA. Otherwise, the allegations are pretty empty and do come off as sour grapes. It's not like Powell has Loganyoungesque abilities to convince families to move in to the Powell zone just so their sons can play football there. Powell is a closed zone school.

 

Not sure where the holier than thou attitude is coming from on this one. There is no basis for it.

    • 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.
