Upperman wins pretty easy in this round. Don't be shocked to be playing Tyner either in the 2nd round. Tyner is not your typical 4-6 team.

if SC meets UH in round 2, UH is a huge favorite based on first game plus comparable scores versse MC and DC. But, If Tyner wins 14+ verse SC, then the folks in Baxter should be worried.

How are you...my friend? Cookeville has some great places to eat...as you probably know. Good luck tonite.

 

Too busy to breathe most days. Work in Cookeville daily. Still doing the sports for the paper. Run the high school bass team and am the booster club president for it. Run the TN district for NBT and I'm on the national board as the Sponsorship chair. Chair of the new GCHS Sports HOF committee. Probably going to have to take over as chair for the Grundy County Veteran's Historical Society too as my friend Y.B. Ashby who led that passed away this week, and if I don't take over no one will. Then maybe I'll be lucky enough to die a worn out frail and broke old man and have very few show up at my funeral like he did Wednesday.

 

Grundy is either a very easy place to live or a very hard one. Either you lay up on your rear and collect a check and do nothing for your family, your community, God or Country....or....You are one of the few that gets stuck with doing everything.

 

........and how are you doing?

I am great. I didn't know you were working in Cookeville. Do you drive or do you stay there some? We will have to meet up for lunch sometime.

Work for DHS over on England Drive. Drive up every day. Not bad. 55.3 from the house. 1 mile on my "street", 9 miles on hwy 399, the rest is 111 and the turn for England is just over I-40. Our offices are right along I-40. I'm in the older building next to the fancy new Health Dept.

Hey Del. If I am leaving from the house, what would be the quickest way for me to get there tonight?

I know where that is. I go to Cookeville pretty often. Will look you up sometime.

I'm not sure about quick but I'd go the way I come up for work. Just simple and easy. You can go up 111 and then get on I-40 toward Nashville and then take the Baxter exit to get to Upperman. But from where I live it would be crazy to go any other way. Too much start and stop through McMinnville, etc. Just mind the speed limits on 111. The blue lights are out there all the time. I use cruise control ALL THE TIME.

    • 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.
