Youthcoach,

The ref's a cheater and/or an idiot? Football just ended? An injury to his arm? I have absolutely no horse in this race, but Wow! You are the epitome of the biased fan/family member or whatever. Just pitiful that you have an excuse ready for every Loss. I can only assume that a competitor like Blake will be embarrassed if he reads this. Do you have the same list of excuses for every guy that Blake has whipped through his career? I wonder if all of them had an injury or a horrible ref to blame also.

Sutherland is an amazing wrestler thats why he was a 2x state champion and won OW this year. I do understand he did just get back from football when he wrestled him at Cleveland, thats not an excuse thats a fact and that may or may not be the reason he wrestled him much closer later in the season.

I shouldn't have even replied . That is exactly why I don't make picks or predictions. Message boards can easily be taken out of context. Western wrestler made a statement I felt was in a hostile manner ( probably taken wrongly by me) bringing up two matches in the past. So I brought up all their matches and gave details instead of just picking two and saying he was pinned. I clearly stated you take the wins with the losses and that's part of it. There are extenuating circumstances at times but if the wrestler chooses to wrestle then he has to accept the outcome. I never said nor am I saying now he's better than the Bullards or anyone else being discussed for that matter. He nor I have ever shied away from anything as anyone who knows either of us would attest to. Ill leave you to argue with Cleveland enemies now and stay out of topics like these. It's much more fun just watching. Edited by YOUTHCOACH16

Youth coach,

 

Your insights are appreciated. We've all seen the inconsistencies through the years with refs down in Georgia, at least when it involves one of ours.

 

I've spoken with Blake recently and found him to be a no excuses kind of guy. He humbly told me in so many ways that he would like to have the talent Seagraves has, and how impressed he was with the way he handled the Bullard brother. I asked him about his bouts and he, Blake, was happy he could keep it close,,, again no excuses. Class Act!

Thx, Soms.. I didn't realize you two had met. Our great sport has produced a fine crop of young men who represent our state well I think. Nothing in life is quite as humbling as wrestling.

    • 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.
    • 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.
