Region 6 Class 3A 2016

But, if you are worried about schools losing good athletes to privates, putting all the privates in a group where they can indeed provide financial aid to student athletes is only going to make it worse :(

Yep. Now all the Jr Pro Football games will be littered with a bunch of sweater vest wearing, private school yuppie scouts. 😂

Not being defensive in any way but there is a big difference between BA / MBA / Ensworth and CPA. The good CPA football teams of the past 6 years or so have basically been composed of kids from the same community. That's not true with the big D-II teams. We've got a great coaching staff, great participation from the student body, and a great strength and conditioning program. And have been blessed with some exceptional athletes.

 

I'll miss 3A because I think 3A/4A is the perfect size for high school football. I understand the debates about how private and open enrollment schools have advantages over normal public schools and I don't disagree. But, if you are worried about schools losing good athletes to privates, putting all the privates in a group where they can indeed provide financial aid to student athletes is only going to make it worse :(

I wasn't referring to CPA. I know most of the coaches at CPA very well.

The issue isn't that they "take kids", more power to the institution and the families involved if that's the route you choose for your high school career. The issue is that the publics have to compete against them come tournament/playoff time.

 

If you want to recruit than recruit but come playoff time split the teams. There is a big difference between not having a quarterback and dealing with what you got as app0sed to going and getting a quarterback.

I think I quoted your post by mistake, no offense was taken at all. Those coaches are a great group of guys.

 

Oh, and if know Coach Taylor you need to ask him how close he came to literally exploding last night a few seconds before the half when there was an unnecessary foul that gave Greenbrier a score. He is always animated but I believe this was his high mark.

4 times in 6 years if it does take place. Plus a substate basketball team (and a substate baseball team from Sycamore this past spring). There have been many seniors from Cheatham County who've played their final high school athletic event against CPA.

Same with Camden.  CPA  and Brentwood academy  have ended our season in multiple sports. Boys and girls.

    • 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.
