In one word, what makes Maryville so good?

And you're a Mod ?? Unbelievable .

I don't think mod disqualifies someone from having an opinion. I know you think 2 of the teams there can do no wrong (the other two, who cares) but do you think Maryville would have had as many titles if they were facing MBA, Ensworth, BA regularly in finals? The question asked for a quick answer on why they're so good, and to me so good for them is being the favorite to win the state every year. If they were playing more of the other top teams-the way the smaller schools have to do-they likely still would have won big and represented the east but not won most years.

You're comparing apples to oranges. Those last 3 schools you mention offer financial aid (and most likely recruit players, given that BA got busted for that years ago), seeing that they are in D-II.

 

Oh, by the way, Maryville beat Brentwood Academy TWICE to win state titles in 1976 and 1978.

Apples and oranges yes, but the largest class or two is a lot less competitive than what it would have been without the partial split. Compare it to Alcoa, how many would they have won in a row now without any private schools knocking them off every now and then?

I think we all know that answer, LOL. Lack of discipline cost us the 2001 state title (lost to Goodpasture in semis). Obviously, we don't have that problem anymore. But here's the thing: Alcoa is 21-7 all-time against private schools in the playoffs, pretty dang good. We beat BA ourselves in 1989.

    • 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.
