ORTT - your 2nd paragraph could be said about many high schools, in fact a lot of DB fans complain about the same thing.         DB posters on here like Batman and Waco call this "Kingsport's good ole boy system".      I think it goes on at Boone to some degree too, perhaps even most high schools.    Ah the politics.......

I don't know that I've ever said good ole boy system but I've said plenty enough to pizz a lot of people off.I'll guarantee you one thing however.Those people  could double, triple or quadruple how pizzed off they are and it wouldn't match me.

Hincke, if we come up there and win.  Can I get one more Here Kitty Kitty, Meow?  We had a great practice yesterday.  The Cats are locked and loaded ready to go.    

 

Haha!  Yea.  I'll be one of the first one's on here to congratulate you guys on your victory.  I've got a lot of disgust for OR, but I've also got respect for you guys.

 

We used to yell HERE KITTY KITTY when we stretched before we played Oak Ridge, guess this game just brings the kid back out in me.

@NuCat Nothing but respect for how you've handled the situation. I think you're being more objective than a lot of these yahoos and you seem to be a pretty good guy!

ORcat 100 thanks a bunch. Logan will get his chance and do what he needs to do when the time comes. Let's all move on and worry about DB

This is some of the funniest %^$&* I've heard regarding the QB situation. Straight from a coach - Dunbar was asked a long time ago to move back to QB due to the offensive change. His dad had nothing to do with it and doesn't speak to Gaddis. You guys must not think too highly of Gaddis if you think he is playing the politics game - why not do this last year? Do you not think the kid earned a chance after the scrimmages?

If you want to talk about politics, how about #1 Miner. Why has no one brought that up or are his relatives on here?

Maybe because the defnse wins ball games for us, while the offense has been average or below average for the last few years.

 

Also, how many QB's played last Friday? How many CB's played? The two CB's that might be more talented than #1 had to sit out significant time last Friday. One of those two had also barely practiced for a few weeks, due to injury. Are you going to tell me that #1 isn't i the top 5 at CB? If you're going to argue something at least come with something better than this.

Have to +1 this. Want to beat OR more than anything, because of their history and what they've accomplished. Feel the same way about DB. I have no idea how our season will go, but I'm glad we get to play OR and DB this year. If I can get mairvul back on the schedule I'll buy season tickets.

I also notice that you ignore all the other coaches that are on staff.

 

Here's my point, if Dunbar was going to be the QB this year (which may be well deserved), the he should have been the QB last year, or at the very least gotten some snaps there. The fact that the staff didn't have a two year plan with junior QB's is laughable.

    • 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.
