I'm hearing they would like to have Mathis since he is already on staff. If Mathis wants to stay in the assistant role there is another name I keep hearing that would bring them some real stability long term, but makes me sick to think about going to the rivals. Marion County just needs to get another coach to move in and maybe one that will stay awhile. I'm sure they will get a good one. Plenty of good coaches around the state.

yep as much as I would hate to see him in those colors, but like RR, you have to think of your family... Great coach, great dad, great leader.

Hey guys, I don't have a ton of sources but the ones I have are usually spot on. I was told today one candidate is dragging his feet. Just not sure if he wants it however attention is turning to another candidate that has risen quickly. I'm told Marion isn't settling and willing to keep spending the money necessary to get their guy especially if it's someone viewed that will invest in the program for the long haul. I know SP people are laughing at the loss of Ross but they would hate for one of their own to come in and the invade their waters.

Old Pirate ain't got a clue about coach Mathis but....is or would he be a long term answer or simply an attempt to slow the bleeding? Obviously he brought in by the SOS and he too was left high & dry, so it seems............? Is he going to tread.........water and wait...........on a position to open up with MCCallie or be a real long term coach? OP jest wondering, hopefully he is learning a lesson also...

I wish I had bought one of RR tickets he was selling to that banquet today at 2 o'clock ...I would like to see what boys win what awards. Besides he could probably use the money

this may be more than Mountain Social Club talk. I heard there is a real effort to attract WS. A proven defensive coach and if Mathis stays with offense they would not miss a beat. I personally would hate to see it but there is a lot of talk even here in the valley.

    • 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.
