Here you go so you do not have to get someone to look it up for you. Mike Skidmore. Want the phone number to or do you know how to look in something as ancient as a telephone book? It is in there.

 

As to the 'race' thing it was brought to me by a Black parent who had a real concern and knew from my years as a cop here that I could mention it to get the problem fixed. Wasn't aimed at either side. Purely that it was a problem that needed to be addressed by someone.

 

Being all PC today and not talking things out is why a bunch of problems build until they become a REAL problem. The butt whipping last year that coach took is a prime example.

 

Any chance the Hoover Coach would want to come here?

 

As to re-zoning, it should not be that much of a problem. Fastest growing section of our zone is along Hwy 231 toward Shelbyville.

 

Good Luck Coach A. YOU are a good man. We just disagreed on your lax discipline policy and the fact you can pass with the Wing T.

 

Who would be some top choices for you? Thoughts about Dobbs? I thought he would be logical choice,but he had already left for MC. I really believe getting a quality proven coach will be tough,not impossible though.

I doubt it would happen, but I would love to see Steve Britton come back. Good coach who REALLY cares for the kids and runs a great weight room. I am prejudiced though as he was my son's line Coach all 4 years he started for R'dale.

 

Another one I would love to see come back is Ron Crawford.

 

A young Coach with no HC time would be Coach White. Good defensive mind and he really loves his old school as he grew up playing in them thru Coaching there under Rankin.

 

What ever Coach comes in gets a three year pass from me to rebuild the program as long as he actually cares for the players and takes care of them.

 

Hopefully there will be a committee to select from the applicants.

Where is he now and why did he leave Jackson Northside?

check out the 3a 4a trend. He recently just stepped down and from what everybody's saying he's a genuine guy. He loves the kids. It's more about the administration and them not wanting to fund program right. Parents are saying that the money that is taken on Friday nights is going into the general pool which everybody is pulling from. The stadium is run-down etc. From what everybody is saying he's going to take a high-profile job and Riverdale was also included

    • 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.
