Dobyns-Bennett vs. East Hamilton


Recommended Posts

I'm glad we have Nick back to work against what I'm hearing is a very big EH front.I'll take a win by any amount like DB had last week.Sometimes games like that can really help build the confidence of a young team.Winning is always a plus,but just becoming a better team at this stage of the season could go a long ways.

Ya know, y'all could have put Greeneville on the schedule and saved yourselves the drive...I mean if yer wanting a 4a team...Fulton would have scheduled too!

 

Greeneville used to be on DB's schedule but after y'all won one game in 40 years you ran away and wouldn't play anymore. Besides, East Hamilton is probably a better team than Greeneville.

Getting ready to head on down to the game In a couple hours and Friday finally has some meaning to it. It's been a long time since we've had some nervous anxiety going into a road game. Not counting the playoffs of course. I'm looking forward to getting Nick Swnsabaugh back. I think this will help fire up the team some. The Tribe are going into this game with very little experience and not much depth. However, we have a coach with enough experience toile up for a lot of the disadvantages. I think tonight you're going to see Coach Clark open up the bag of tricks if we need them since its not a conference game and see what this team is made. The young QB's will be fighting for the starting spot to lead this team the rest of the way. Not sure which will win out but I think either can do the job after watching last week. I've been a little hard on East but he played very well last week and had earned my confidence. Anyway, it's Football time in Tennessee so Go Vols especially Malik and Swafford and ROLL TRIBE!!!!!

    • 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.
