It's a shame such a great tournament was ruined by a terrible home plate umpire in the Silver Bracket final. He clearly did not know the rules and it seemed he felt like his ego was bigger then the game. An umpire in that big of a game should be cognizant of the rules and try to be as transparent as possible, not change the game with an obvious miscall.

 

That is taking nothing away from East Roberston, who played a great game to win the title.

 

Like in years past, these two squads will more than likely meet again in the region tournament, should be a heck of a game!

Also, the tournament's lack of respect for the media members that were there covering the event for 12 1/2 hours on Saturday was disappointing.

We are are professionals and we know what we are doing as far as never interfering with play. If there was rules that stated there should be designated media areas painted on the field, then why were they not provided, like the areas in Murfreesboro at the state tournament? It only takes a couple of sprays from a paint can to make a box?


Our job is to report the event and as far as I know, out of all 24 teams there, we were the only media members reporting your event and supporting the teams and the girls that play this great game.

Thank you,

First , I don't schedule umpires...you got a problem with them ...find out who the assigner is and seek out who was behind the plate for the Silver Championship game. Overall they did a great job! These guys put in some long hours all weekend long!! 

 

Second, never saw you at the tourney and if you had a problem why didn't you seek me out. Williamson county papers were at the tourney, Mute point!!

 

Sorry you had a bad experience. Everybody I talked to had a great experience!!

      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.
