Back - Zack McClendon (Forrest) 1385 yds rushing, 18 TD's , 8.2 yds per attempt.

DITTO on this kid. 325 plus in one game. He is the #1 back on a team that runs the Wing T. Everyone knows he is getting it. Try to stop it.

 

No one has, including a strong Alabama school, a 3A school and a 4A school.

 

The TCA kid might have a more impressive stat sheet, but that team is loaded.

 

Without McClendon, Forrest beats 3-4 teams this year. It's the nature of the offense, making his accomplishments all that more remarkable.  

 

He drags kids. He drags piles of kids. Heart that doesn't quit. He has also matured from last year (fewer on field theatrics, etc).

This young man could be the middle TN kid that gets the nod as a finalist over the kid from Greenback. Regardless, go back and look at my list on the other page. I can promise you the ones I listed are already in the top 4-5 vote getters.

Good thing is zeman could drop down and win the lineman of the year award instead of the back. He is an area leader in tackles for loss and teams are running away from him now.

He is a beast on defense. I truly believe if Ross hadn't made the decision to limit his offensive load that he would have won it hands down. He already runs over everybody and with that extra step he has picked up he is pretty hard to stop.

    • 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.
