District 14-A 2013


Recommended Posts

Will be an interesting year in 14-A as most teams lose key players. The early favorite will be Humboldt who returns almost everyone including 2,000 yard rusher McLily. They should be improved next year. Union City loses alot in #25 Hyde, #4 Lewis, I believe QB Rutland as well and pretty much the entire O-Line with #52 Shanks and others. Trenton loses #8 Doaks, #2 and the RB #22 Barnett. Not sure how much up front but a few seniors there as well. South Fulton loses pretty much entire offesne with #2 Garmon, #6 Fowler and some linemen. Not sure on Halls and Greenfield. Gibson Co. looks to be added to the district and I am not sur what they have coming back but I am sure they are glad to move to 1A. As for the Falcons they hope to get some guys healthy and all the way back from injury (Greg Ross, Chase Crittenden, Cameron Mills and Stavonski Wilkes). They have some key skill guys returning in #5 Flowers, #25 Caldwell and #2 Coleman but lose some key players at QB, FB, RB LT and LG. Defense will be bigest concenr, considering the struggles at times there this year with the loss of 6 starters. The def will def be young and inexperienced. The off-season workouts and spring will be key for the falcons and for all teams in 14-A for that matter.

I hear the Falcons are keeping Murray, KY in week 0 and Fulton Co., KY in week 1. If the district goes to 8 teams as proposed that leaves them 1 nondistrict game to fill in a week 3 or 5. That means district games will be Gibson Co., Greenfield, Halls, Humboldt, Peabody, South Fulton and Union City in some order. I know Coach B has contacted West Carroll, Gleason, Bruceton among others to try and fill dates. Gues more will be known on scheduling after districts are finalized and coaches attend scheduling meeting.

Swo, I know Union City lost alot but tell me what they return?

Yeah we lost alot that's true. Basically we lost our entire offensive backfiled including the QB. We lost several on the line as well. However Im looking forward to see what this next class can bring in. We will still have several athletes that can fly. Moffit being one of those. We will return Ricky Henry who got invaluable experience while Hyde was out for the last half of the season really. This group of sophmores, who will be junoirs are among some of the hardest hitting players on the field will make alot of noise as well. Im optomistic but not convinced just yet. If you look at how well our JV performed over the last couple of years it offers some reason to think we will be a team to be reckoned with. Not sure what that will bring but atleast it's not like the 2010, 2011 seasons outlook. I think we will be okay. But not great.

    • 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.
