I have 3 kids at Bremfwood Academy ... My 2 boys play football. We are not looking at this game the way some of the east tn folks are seeing it.

 

Science hill is better and our defense is banged up. My option ok is SH can go toe to toe with BA much like MBA did last week. If this game is a man handling by BA I will be shocked. I think Malik is elusive enough to avoid our front 7. We just do not have anyone on our team who can simulate what he can do. Our QB is a similar player and both should be fun to watch

 

We are good but I have been impressed with SH . Expect a closer game than people are expecting on here

 

 

Bigdog - just read this thread after coming home from the game. great game and fun to watch - you are right BA was fortunate to pull it out.  seems both defenses took a vaca but can't take anything away from the SH QB - great player - fun to watch. I'm posting because I was always trying to figure out who you were.  After seeing your post here, with the help of my sons (one who played football @ BA,  graduated and now a redshirt f-man playing college ball )and one who is in the same grade as one of your sons we figured it out.  BA will have some tough games coming up regardless of some of the guys coming back but this team is young and it bodes well for the next 2 yrs.  ANd, looks like ralph could possibly win a state c-ship - pretty ironic that he could not do it at BA with teams that had more talent than anyone in the state. BA could be there in the upcoming yrs IF they can find a way to improve on and play consistent strong defense.

First step is to believe- the kids need to have confidence they can. Any team can be beat - it may take a huge effort but it all starts with the right mindset

How did SH's 9th do against the Greeneville 10th graders.Somebody from South please tell me how you done against the DC 9TH tonight because DB's 9th went against 10th and 11th graders at Crockett.

If you guys think BA will shut down McGue it's not happening. He was avg 10 yards a carry last year when he went out of the game.   He can't beat Ba by himself but he is the type of QB that can give

baylorbigdog, just read that there was 1400 yards of total offense in this one. Insane! The article in the JC Press also said SH's 630 yards of offense is the most a BA team has ever allowed.

 

Waco, McGue passed for 450 yards and 4 touchdowns and ran for 93 yards and 2 touchdowns.

Wow...all I can say. I knew the number was high. If you guys stay healthy and play like you did tonight it will take some effort to beat SH this year .

Yes. Don't get me wrong, Hayes was a very good QB but he couldn't make things happen with his legs like McGue can. Reed had a better arm but he didn't have that elusiveness that Malik has.

 

 

The elusiveness is what makes McGue the best.  He won't play QB at a major college because of his size, but will probably have the option to play another position.  In my opinion (say what you want) but guys like Foreman and McGue at the high school level are the best to play the position locally in decades because of their ability to make things happen.  Notice I said high school, because I know we have had some greats go on and play QB in college and or NFL.  But in high school, there is not a better weapon.

Exactly. Everything starts with the QB. If you've got a great player there you've probably got a good team. And McGue's definitely got a good team around him. The thing that's so impressive to me about him is that he plays a lot bigger than he is. From what I've been told, he currently has offers from Wofford, ETSU, Tennessee State and Furman. I'll be interested to see where he ends up and what position he ends up playing in college. He plays QB, WR, DB and even returns kicks for SH. I mean he can do it all and he does it all well.

I know Autin Peay can be added to that list and MTSU will come soon.  I think many schools will recruit him as an athlete.  You know it is crazy because at DB, Foreman was not the starter at QB until the starter went down with injury versus Sevier County.  When Foreman took over,  I can't remember seeing more play making made from speed from a QB at DB.  People were nervous after the starter went down, but Foreman had our offense scoring several more TD's a game easy.

Foreman was very good. I didn't really get to see him play much as I moved back to JC when he was a Senior but I remember him. From what I've been told, everyone knew McGue was going to be good. This good? I'm not sure, but certainly knew he had the talent to end up being a very good player. He was already showing flashes of being something special at WR and returning kicks when he was a Freshman. He had to wait his turn behind Hayes at QB though. I remember last year a lot of people where concerned about the QB position. I think it took all of one game for those concerns to disappear. Next year, the QB position will be in good hands once again. Junior QB/RB, Justin Bedard, is impressive. He'll remind you a little more of Hayes. He doesn't have the elusiveness McGue has but he's a big kid with a strong arm. This year he's on the field mainly at RB and has been a bit of a surprise there. He plays very physical.

I hear you Aussie.  I know Science Hill has some talent coming up.  DB does too.  I like the bigger QB's that have cannons as arms.  I am just really sold on the smaller, extremely fast QB's, with decent arms right now.  I feel like they can make a team the most dominating they can be.  Broken plays turning to first downs.  A QB slashing for 50 yards.  Roll out passes, you name it.  Speed makes thing happen.

      Who vandalized Maryville's Football Field?

      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.
