Spring practice is well underway. OL looks like the strong point on this squad. 6 kids return from the OL that contributed a great deal to the semi final run. Only graduated 1 from the OL. Always good to be able to run fresh BIG's in there and not miss a beat. New QB is turning some heads as well. From what I see, the high Spring ranking is justified. The Rams will be tough to deal with in the fall.

 

Let's hear some updates from the rest of you guys on your threads.

Thought you guys were returning the QB from last season. Was he a sr or just moving him to another position.

The "real" Rams have just tied the scrimmage 4-4. GCA depending on big plays while Tyner is running up and down the field! No stats being kept but I bet Tyner has about 150-250 yards on the ground.

 

After a series of penalties, Tyner went the length of the field and scored the last TD of the game to win 5-4!!! Good scrimmage.

Sounds like both teams got something out of the scrimmage. I;m sure Tyner will be a player in 2a.

Two great 2A teams going at it that will be much better in the Fall because of this scrimmage. Any other situation that happened (by no member of the Tyner football team or coaching staff) was handled by the Tyner administration with class. Everything is done, forgiven and forgotten. Let's move on. Both will be contenders in the East.

1st 7 on 7 went well. New QB looked good. We've got a really solid and deep stable of receivers to chuck it to as well. And FAST. Our strength coach has packed on the muscle and speed this offseason. #'s are also the highest we've ever seen at GCA.

The only way anyone would be shocked would be if you said you looked bad. You guys will be a front runner EVERY year.Its called being committed.

Appreciate the comment, but we looked pretty rusty too. Got some work to do in the secondary, but it's still early.

 

And you're right, every player, every parent, every coach, even people that don't have players on the team are COMMITTED at this place. As you know, that's not the case everywhere. Wish every school was that way. The kids deserve better and it starts with the parents. I couldn't imagine not supporting my kids in anything they decided to go after, sports or anything else.

Would be a much better world if more people approach it the way you guys do. Sad thing about that, its never gonna happen.

I know you do all you can to get participation in off season workouts up there. I don't know all of the dynamics of your family, but I know you are part of that coaching family up there. It's a shame that any parent, regardless of school, would turn their head and not support their child in anything that the child shows interest in. I HATE soccer, but if one of my kids started playing the game and liked it, I'd probably be seen around town in a Manchester United T Shirt. Support your kids. We only have them for a short time!

AMEN, people who don't have time to raise their kids don't need any. My kids are my life and its my goal to raise them to be good honest productive citizens. Football teaches alot of things to ensure just that.

    • And can you tell me who those two quarterbacks were, and every kid that was put into college from Bearden is a Bearden kid? It’s kind of why they graduated from Bearden.   and I would definitely not consider ETSU “waste”…
    • Most of this is complete gibberish. But the one part I could decipher is putting kids in college. This coaching staff hasn’t put a single Bearden kid in college. They completed wasted one of the best WRs in East TN and have ruined two talented QBs. All because they’re in over their heads. 
    • Well, I’d hope the new coaching staff thinks they are all that because they can always walk around the school, anytime they want, thinking that, especially for what they’ve done for the student athletes and the players, putting more kids in college in his first season than the old coaching staff did in numerous years combined, but we will just sweep over that because I know you don’t like facts. But trust me, nobody wanted Mr. Big britches, made the star player switch to quarterback, which is ultimately the reason he ended up transferring to play the position. He loved, but unfortunately, had to be at another school because Mr. Big Britches doesn’t like when a teenager knows more than him, but can’t expect much coming from a guy who used all class throwing pencils up into the ceiling and making fun of football kids who were failing class right to their face, and in front of numerous students, even projecting on the board most of the time.
    • After that first paragraph, I can see why you’re a TA and not a teacher. Have you made the move from South Knoxville to Bearden yet?    Maybe he left because he is an actual teacher and coach, and didn’t want to be associated with a group of foul mouthed middle school coaches who like to pretend they’re big time. 
    • Yeah and the coach is gone. Whole bizarre situation here. We played them a couple of times at MTSU last few years. She was a player for sure.
