Early predictions for 8-AA 2013


Recommended Posts

I told you! Dekalb is a TD or two better than Livingston. Either those suspensions really hurt LA or Gville came to play tonight.

2 td's better than LA? That's a little bold. I heard LA sat 3 guys out who start both ways, plus have 3 guys hurt that will b back at some point. LA is at least 2-3 td better than GH this year. I say its a tossup with DC and GH with very slight edge to DC. Edited by UpperCumberlandMan

Just going by what I seen with the two teams. I hope most of those players were lineman.

Wharton is very very quick and a playmaker, just give him the ball. Gaulden looks like a good athlete. Didn't do to much tonight because we didn't throw as much and his main position is safety. They should contribute!

 

I wasn't able to go to the Indy scrimmage but talked to someone who did and was told the Owls looked MUCH bettter. No doubt Indy has the best team, but the Owls fumbled twice inside the 10 yard line amd had a pass intercepted in the end zone. I understand several changes were made and it definitrly helped the Owls. Again, I didn'y go, was told this from someone who did go. Any other comments from those who did go??

Whoever you talked to was right. They looked like the team they should be. It completely surprised me they did so well because of the practices I've watched and the previous scrimmage. Luke and Mason both had more time to throw it, they were just throwing against D1 defensive backs. We did have 2-3 turnovers inside the 10. I'm starting to like the offenses. Defense just needs to wrap up better, we had a few tackle for losses but they got away from them and eventually scored. Still don't have Gregory or Frazier back and I can't wait til Gregory gets back out there. I'm glad we take a step down in competition Friday, hopefully puts some more confidence in these guys.

    • 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.
