Last time I checked Blackman and Oakland are nationally ranked this year also. Central Magnent is on the rise. Just a different level of girls basketball, especially in AAA.

 

Notice I said AAA wasn't a place where we competed. But with those three, plus Riverdale, that equals four really good teams. Central won't ever top any of those three though. Now, if we talk championships, which matters most, Riverdale has 3 and Murfreesboro High 1. Shelbyville is in a class of it's own, one that we aren't even talking about, with 12. Now, add the UC's. Clarkrange 8, Jackson 7, Pickett 5, Livingston 4, York, Cannon, White, Clay 1. If you started talking about runners-up an appearances, this post would be a lot longer. Again, no AAA in UC can touch AAA ANYWHERE else, but the gold doesn't lie.

Just like Central and Ridgeway having to fight to get out of the Memphis region, does Riverdale, Blackman, and Oakland all have to fight each other for the same State spots?

Yes, they are in the same district. Just like Jackson County, Clay Co and Clarkrange at the Class A level. It actually becomes easier when you leave the district teams.

Here is the problem with polls.....this is an example-Mt Pleasant boys started #1 in first poll-4 days later beaten by Richland, poll comes out the drop to 5th and once again, 4 days later lose to a 5 win culleoka team and surprise surprise they are #5 again this week.......lets be real-I dont care who you beat, you dont jump from 7th to 3rd ahead of teams that didnt lose.....you keep talking about 7A and last years finals-summertown went 8 minutez shooting 0-23 and lost in ot by 1 point....it wasnt that they shut us down, we went cold at a bad time......and in wtching JC they are very beatable, trust me

Nobody has said JC is unbeatable. It's obvious in the fact that they are 18-3. Having said that, as someone that has been at all 21 games we have played this year, when JC is on their game, they are the best team in Class A.

    • 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.
