Not being shady at all.

 

Just tired of trying to explain the kid has never transferred until this year.

 

I don't know why she transferred and it's none of my business but every reason you listed is humorous.

 

Meadows tore her acl about a month ago (early to mid October). School started in August. So how Meadows being injured played into the decision at all is kind of funny to me since she was at York 2 months BEFORE Meadows got hurt. So the comment about her going back to Clarkrange when Meadows returns next season would be really strange.

 

As I stated I don't know why she left Clarkrange but I would guess it had something to do with her Freshman sister going to York Institute this year, and her parents built a new home and moved this summer, I'm amazed with your insights to Fentress Co basketball you didn't already know that.

 

But hey, what the heck do I know. Obviously not nearly as much as some of you.

No the real question is, is how did she end up at CR to begin with. If she was enrolled at York in the 8th grade. I think we all know. But it really dont matter to me because if GCA is allowed to recruit and play in D1 then why cant everyone else. GO YORK

Isn't there a difference between being enrolled at York elementary and York high school?

The Fentress County School System has 4 Elementary (through 8th grade) schools: Allardt, Pine Haven, South Frentress and York.  Clarkrange High School is the only high school in the Fentress County School System.  So it is the county high school.  There is another high school in Fentress County it is York Agriculture Institute.  It is a private school owned by the state of Tennessee.  Students going from 8th grade to 9th grade can attend the high school of their choice.  Only after attending class in the 9th grade do transfer rules apply.  Then all transfer rules of the TSSAA would apply.

York Institute is not a private school. It is a state school but public.

I think it is the only state run high school in the US. I think that was arranged by Alvin C. himself. He founded the school in 1926 & the state took over in 1937. Wiki has a good write up on the history. Fascinating story.

York Institute is a state funded high school and is open to any student residing in Fentress Co.  Clarkrange and the K thru 8 schools are county funded. Fentress Co. is open zoned.  wonsa can correct me, if I am wrong.

York has been competitive in past years and has players move up to the next level. Yolanda Buck and Brandi Brown both played at MTSU. There have been others that went to smaller schools and Jr Colleges  .

Alvin C. York started the school and worked for years to fund it. Then the state of Tennessee, to thank him for his heroism in WWI, took over the school funding. Lately they have been wanting to go back on their promise which would be very dishonorable.

Alvin C. York  put his backbone into the physical labor to build the original building and it is part of  his heritage to his homeland.  If the state of Tennessee goes back on their commitment that would be dishonorable.

Saw some of our district teams Saturday this is my take of who I saw: York is going to be very good as the season goes on. Their point guard can get it done. A side note York brought a huge crowd.

 

Cannon isn't the cannon teams you've seen in the past. They play hard and that will win some games

 

Smith is young and just like Cannon and York have a new coach. Shot well at times.

 

Who else saw some games? Its bball time!

    • 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.
