So glad you're having "Smokin" Joe Gaddis again. Ask him about that nickname and if he still shows boxing matches before the games. :)

Coach said they do still call him "Smokin" Joe Gaddis.  Wasn't sure if you caught the show or not:

 

 

I've got the free podcast of my show from last Friday up now if you'd like to check that out.  I did project the playoff brackets for all six classes if you missed it.  Keep in mind, I didn't have the benefit of knowing Friday's results when my show aired last Friday.  Here is link to that podcast.  FridayMainEvent

I did! It was great buddy. Thank you for asking the questions!

What I found funny was you didn't even know Jennings was going to Ole Miss, yet you're questioning/wondering if he'll even play football his senior year.

It is pretty amazing that I wouldn't know about a prep signing in Dekalb County despite the fact that I work a job seven days a week and do this stuff on the side. Pretty crazy for me to be that uninformed considering I try really hard to track 6 classes statewide in my "spare time"... Its not uncommon for a multi sport star to focus on the one they've signed to play for in college their senior year. Ever heard of the all state basketball player Juan Jennings? How'd that senior year of basketball go? Amazing to me how you can pick up critics over such a small oversight.

You misunderstood. It's not funny you didn't know. It's funny you immediately question whether he'll play next year.

    • 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.
