Baggage or no baggage, smokin Joe would be a homerun. He will try to hire his boy Grey just like he did the last two times but surely it will not happen. At least I hope not.........

 

Your post is correct on ALL points, and your hope is my hope. I just wonder what Smokin Joe is thinking. Would he consider this if he gets a call? I have my doubts but I sure want to know.

I don't know who they will get to be the next coach, but, the bigger problem at Oak Ridge is Mullins, and has been for some time. I really don't see that changing, which is a shame for the program. There are plenty of quality coaches who would love to come to Oak Risdge, lets hope they get the chance.

He will try to hire a guy who is no smarter than himself, no more charismatic than himself, no more personable than himself, and no more capable than himself to turn the community on to football like the old days.................which leaves only one guy.............the guy he has tried to hire every time the job opens up. If the football fans of OR, and I know you're out there, don't unite to pressure the administration to hire a guy who can energize this community and get this program back like we want it, then it WILL NOT HAPPEN!

Ridgerunner91 you got me all wrong, I hold no grudge against Joe , would love to see him back but unless he is officially asked by the school board don't look for Joe to come marching home.

 

I understand what you're saying. I don't know who would do the asking but I agree that someone would have to ask officially. I'm like you in that I'm not quite sure why he would want to come back, but I sure hope someone asks, and I sure hope he comes back.

    • 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.
