I have known Dupree for a long time he is a very good kid, with great parents. Kevin also a very good baseball player and has worked very hard at the game. A lot of times kids that are very good at an early age have a lot of expectations thrown on them Kevin falls into this area IMO. MTSU is a very good D1 baseball school IMO they would not sign him if they did not think he was very talented.

I really don’t know what overrated is……. Overrated by whose standard fans, other teams? MTSU does not think he is overrated, I don’t think he is overrated; I think he is a heck of a good ballplayer. I respect your opinion and think you have the right to it. But at the end of the day he is a 17 year kid, trying to make his way. If Kevin makes it in baseball is totally up to him. I will tell you he will be a great person at life.

But back to baseball he has all the tools to be big time! 6’3 200 pounds, throws in the mid to up 80’s good breaking pitch, and oh yea he is a southpaw! Many of pros make big money because they are southpaws, no matter there record. He will go for the brass ring, no doubt about that……… But in the spirit of things if he throws against the Canes I hope we punch his lights out.

I'm not questioning his character. You obviously are looking through Rose colored glasses. The guys in C-USA will be able to swing it a whole lot better than the boys at the TBCA did or the Tullahoma guys that absolutely torched him.

No just the glasses I wear everyday...... Tullahoma Torched everybody! My point which you tottaly missed...... He has good size.... throws lefty he will get a shot.... MTSU thinks so....... As for everything else in life we will see...... It is totally up to Kevin. By the way never said you questioned his character. I am not a Ooltewah guy.

Canes, take it on the chin this past weekend! Drop games to Owls 8-2, Tullahoma 15-2 (they are good really good), Bradley 8-4, and The home schoolers from Atlanta (IMO are a bunch of brats, I am speaking of the parents) Kids were good guys!

 

But, there is always a but , we played a few different lineups and did not throw our 1,2,3, pitchers..... Tullahoma still would have beat us.

    • 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.
