Why doesn't maryville play other states top teams?


Recommended Posts

 

I mean you can look at it that way, but on the field when it was Memphis City Schools vs Maryville, White Station won one and we Split with the Red Dragon. WE got it done. NO ONE ELSE DID :popcorneater:[/quote

Cmon man it ain't Maryvilles fault if Memphis City don't show up

No blame placed on Maryville. I was making a point that 6A Memphis schools have faired better than EVERYONE else in the 6A playoffs vs the Red Dragon. Its a legit point or nah?

You have to be a very mature team to go into Orange Mound and not be intimidated. When the bleachers back up to the projects and it requires a police escort both in and out you understand the situation. Maryville is talented enough to win playing @ Melrose but it would be like playing the "U" in the Orange Bowl back when Jimmy Johnson was coaching. It can get crazy if Melrose is good.

 

You don't NEED a police escort in and out... We usually needed one out due to the mass number of people in attendance but NEVER for safety purposes. I don't appreciate these types of comments. Don't let fake fear run your behavior.

The BEST players clearly go to either Maryville or Alcoa. C'mon son

Actually that's not true at all. WB has some good talent every year and Heritage will usually have atleast 1 or studs on the team. The thing that has held WB and Heritage back is lackluster coaching. Now that both schools have good coaches they won't be in the basement much longer. I think WB getting Shadowens will hurt Alcoa because Alcoa has poached a few really good players off of us over the years.

Yes, I have been to both Newport and Orange Mound where Melrose plays. I know that Newport is rough but it's like Disneyland compared to playing in Orange Mound. Ask anyone that has ever played @ Melrose and they will tell you just how dangerous things are there. Jimmy Carter had the tires stolen off the presidential limo while speaking at Melrose back in the 70's and things have only gotten worse.

Lol. Would of loved to see jimmy when he got back to his car

    • 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.
    • All these college signees went yo other schools for 3 years, were getting college offers then transferred to Bearden. It’s not like this staff did much to develop them.    The BBall coaches son and the Seymour transfer were some of the most talented QBs in the region, and you guys developed them into QBs who might complete one pass a game.
