Thank you for the kind words brother and the well wishes...Hopefully West comes out ready to play. I also hope for an injury free game.

 

SS, I hope you had a great Thanksgiving and have an even better holiday season.

 

Go West!

Thank you sir. I did. Any day I wake up healthy and breathing is always a great day along with my family. I'm blessed beyond words. I truly hope you and yours had a great Thanksgiving as well as well as everybody else that is on here. If any team in TN deserves that Gold Ball it's the West Rebels. They have been right there the past 3 years and it's time to get over the proverbial hump. The time is now West make the best of it. Go Rebs!!!

Off topic but...walking to the stadium from parking across from Big

Ed's last Friday, I must have let my wife's Titans blanket fall 'tween there and the gate.  That lot was 90% Rhea County folks. Anybody happen to find a Titans blanket?  We would love to have it back if it was found.

 

I had good conversations with the Rhea crowd after the game...just as friendly a group of fans as we remember from years ago going down there with a full crowd of Wildcats.  I like to keep wins in our area but since Rhea stopped our comeback and won...I am pulling for Rhea over West. I expect them to fill the stadium like they did at Oak Ridge..

RHEA COUNTY...IF YOU CAN PULL THIS WIN OFF..YOU WILL BE THE PRE-SEASON FAVORITE TO WIN YOUR NEW DISTRICT 4AAAAA

YOU WILL ALSO REPRESENT 5A #BIGBOYFOOTBALL/4AAAAA

YOU WILL HAVE KNOCKED OFF THE TOP STATE RANKED TEAM AND 2 UNDEFEATED TEAMS THAT WERE RANKED AHEAD OF YOU...

YOU WILL PROVE JUST HOW TOUGH THE COMPETITION IS IN 5A...NO CLEAR FAVORITE AND WE DON'T CROWN PAST CHAMPIONS.....WE COMPETE....

YOUR COACH WILL EXPLOIT THE WEAKNESS....I GIVE THE COACHING EDGE TO RHEA

 

KNOXVILLE WEST.....IF YOU CAN GET PAST THIS UNDEFEATED CINDERELLA TEAM THAT HAS DEFIED ALL ODDS AGAINST THEM THUS FAR....YOU CAN PLAY AGAIN FOR WHAT YOU FELT WAS YOURS LAST SEASON......1 POINT AWAY FROM BECOMING CHAMPS....I THINK THIS WILL BE YOUR TOUGHEST CHALLENGE......

YOU WILL BE ON THE ROAD IN AN ENVIRONMENT THAT WILL SHUT THE TOWN DOWN TO ATTEND THIS GAME.....IT WON'T BE EASY....THESE KIDS HAVE BOUGHT INTO THIS NEW COACHES PROGRAM....

BUT WEST HAS BEEN THERE DONE THAT...KNOW WHAT IT TAKES TO WIN...

WEST HAS INCORPORATED THE PASS THAT WAS MISSING AND IMO COST THEM THE GOLD BALL..YOU HAVE THE SPEED AND ATHLETICISM TO COMPETE AT A HIGH LEVEL AND YOU HAVE #5 WHO RUNS A 4.3 LASER TIMED 40....I GIVE THE EXPERIENCED TEAM THE EDGE IN THIS MATCHUP...BUT WILL PEMBERTON TAKE THAT AWAY??? 

good luck to both....but i have to go with my new district buddies....#goEagles

    • 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.
