Glad to see him back. I was at the game tonight, and West looked like the team to beat in the IMAC, very solid pitching. Either West or Sevier will win the district this year, IMO. Btw someone fill me in on the coaching thing, I didn't realize Nick Morgan was now the head coach.

 

Yes, Nick Morgan is now the head coach.  Very much deserved.  Great man.  He's also doing a good job.  Very tough situation to have the head coach resign one week before opening day.  However, a calming influence that has been around the program for some time like Nick is a great thing to have and helped to keep the train on the track.

Wow, that's a tough situation to just step into that position that quickly, so hats off to him. Glad to see a guy that has waited his turn get his dream job. West is in good hands.

Monday's Morristown East vs. Symour game could be played on Friday. Remains to be seen. East's game against Austin-East Friday has been canceled and the Hurricanes will travel to Knox Central Saturday for a game at 1. Like it was said, this Hurricane team is extrememly young. Not many upper classmen. Their JV squad I think only has 1 loss on the season. Their sophmore class is loaded with talent. This team is a year away from contending for the conference and in 2 years it will be scary how talented they'll be. Also I made the trip to Bearden Saturday for our game and Lane Thomas is the real deal. I've never seen a high school player as good as him in this region. Hit 2 homers off of us and came in to pitch and got the W. It is good to see former Cane John Rice having success at Bearden though.

    • 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.
