@ Coach1076 I don't think that was the case. When Coach Pembeton left Coach Meadows (from my assumption) was the best candidate with really good credentials. For whatever reason it didn't work out. From what the paper says, he stepped down on his own accord. Who knows what really happened behind close doors, if you ask two people the same question you usually get two different answers. As for the candidates, its been real hush hush, with interviews being held this week.

 

You may see it differently than I do, but when they said it was mutual, to me that means they let him know that they were going in a different direction, and calling it a mutual parting of the ways sounded better, than you are fired.

 

Most men with a family is not going to give up a $90,000+ job, unless he has a job already lined up, and obviously, Meadows did not already have a job lined up.

The new head man at Catholic will drive down Pillissippi and turn right on Dutchtowne rd, left on Cedar Bluff, right in to Catholic. Now it aint real far from Alcoa to Catholic is it? Just remember I told you so!

 

Did Rankin apply for the job? If they were going to hire him, then why have they went through all of the application and interviewing process?

I can honestly say you are right and it was as I figured all along. I also figure the 'holdup' is how many and which assistants come with him.

    • 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.
