Turns out we all have an overly inflated impression of baseball in Wilson Co....

Apparently softball ain't as good as we thought either. Combined 0-6 in the Boro.

 

 

Turns out that we went to state and had a chance, tough draw and did not perform to expectations, turns out that we were there and you were not.

Wow, step back from the ledge and lighten up dude. I said MJ was great all year too. That's why I said "we" were wrong. Apparently MJ is not as good as you or I thought. Turns out they were not ready for the bright lights of the state. I thought they were. "Tough draws" shouldn't matter if a team is truly ready to be a state champ. We would have probably agreed that Farragut had a tough draw too when the tournament started.

Did you attend the tournament? What games did you watch? How many MJ and FC games did you watch this year?

 

Fact is it was a tough draw, we had 1 and 2 pitchers hurt , so did Farragut....

 

again which high school do you represent?

I got to see Mt. Juliet play one game in the state tournament unaware of the injuries to their staff and was told of Farragut's same issues. What a shame those teams did not have their staffs healthy. Did not see any of the Class A tournament, but was shocked that FCS went out so early. They cerainly looked like the team to beat on paper. That is why the outcomes are played on the field. But both had great years and should be congratulated as well as all teams who advanced.

    • 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.
