Whitehaven @ Sacred Heart-Griffin (Springfield, Ill)

All I can say after seeing the game is that Turner is the real deal and so was SHG's QB Green.  No shame in having a hard time covering Turner.  Saw much to be impressed about with Whitehaven.  I thought the passing by Williams to Willingham in the 4th quarter drive was impressive.  If they had adjusted to Turner sooner it might have been a much closer game.  Whitehaven was killed by penalties (they must have been penalized for at least 200 yds-crazy).  I know a lot were pass inteference calls from guarding Turner but that's unreal.  Not blaming Whitehaven, but that definitely influenced the outcome of the game.  I look to see the Haven in the championship game again.  This will only make them tougher to beat in December.

Wh / SHG

 

"First downs / 17 / 35

 

Net yards rushing / 2 / 317"

 

 

This about sums it up. 2 yards rushing is unheard of for any Whitehaven team. Not sure if this was play calling or they just did some serious film study on us. Either way this should never happen again, especially with the talent we have in the backfield. Time to correct all issues heading torwards playoffs.

I think the Time of Possession plus being down 2 scores the majority of the game (As I said COULDN'T HAPPEN) dictated those rush yard stats more than the play calling or SHG's "defensive greatness"...

 

Simple and Plain Malik Turner's play EARLY and our untimely penalties did us in... When We wasted that opening possession of the 2nd half we literally gave the game ALL THE WAY AWAY... Once Whitehaven would of got up those SHG kids and coaches would of been coaching from another place but it didn't happen. Whitehaven DID NOT play a clean game and the score showed it. Its cool though, hopefully certain things can be fixed and that's all I want to say.

    • 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.
