What I meant was, if the public teams are good, then a school like Ryan will not be ABLE to recruit those kids  and then you will stay the bottom feeder of D2AAA. We both know you have to get some of those athletes to compete in any way in AAA.

Bottom feeder….NICE!

Public schools being better is good the the city…period.  PC beat MBA twice in a row.  More PC’s in the city would be awesome.  Competition comes from a broad base and not 2-3 “elite” programs.  I would love to see Overton and Whites Creek at their former selves.  And not just metro….a Gallatin return would be good as well; just like Dickson County. There are athletes in the area for everyone to prosper….like everyone did years ago.  To say Davidson county only has 150 good athletes yearly would be absurd.  Rather than blame D2’s, what question should be what does the middle school program look like?  There is no feeder program in the city in my opinion.  Ruco and Wilco seem to have them…just like Alcoa and Maryville.  I don’t see the D2’s in that area affecting state championships.

God bless the next coach at Antioch and the Glencliff coach.  They have the biggest challenge in high school coaching history imo.   

I was reading that at Glencliff you have over 40 different first languages being spoken within the student body.  The school is truly the United Nations which is not conducive to having a great football or all around athletic program.  With a vast majority of the Glencliff students being first generation Americans the immigrant parents require the students to work as much as possible.  When the last school bell for the day rings there is a line of construction trucks picking up many of the students and taking them to work the last few hours of daylight.  The same can be said for the students working on the weekends.

There are over 40 spoken at Overton also. They are not the tea-sippers anymore.

    • And can you tell me who those two quarterbacks were, and every kid that was put into college from Bearden is a Bearden kid? It’s kind of why they graduated from Bearden.   and I would definitely not consider ETSU “waste”…
    • Most of this is complete gibberish. But the one part I could decipher is putting kids in college. This coaching staff hasn’t put a single Bearden kid in college. They completed wasted one of the best WRs in East TN and have ruined two talented QBs. All because they’re in over their heads. 
    • Well, I’d hope the new coaching staff thinks they are all that because they can always walk around the school, anytime they want, thinking that, especially for what they’ve done for the student athletes and the players, putting more kids in college in his first season than the old coaching staff did in numerous years combined, but we will just sweep over that because I know you don’t like facts. But trust me, nobody wanted Mr. Big britches, made the star player switch to quarterback, which is ultimately the reason he ended up transferring to play the position. He loved, but unfortunately, had to be at another school because Mr. Big Britches doesn’t like when a teenager knows more than him, but can’t expect much coming from a guy who used all class throwing pencils up into the ceiling and making fun of football kids who were failing class right to their face, and in front of numerous students, even projecting on the board most of the time.
    • After that first paragraph, I can see why you’re a TA and not a teacher. Have you made the move from South Knoxville to Bearden yet?    Maybe he left because he is an actual teacher and coach, and didn’t want to be associated with a group of foul mouthed middle school coaches who like to pretend they’re big time. 
    • Yeah and the coach is gone. Whole bizarre situation here. We played them a couple of times at MTSU last few years. She was a player for sure.
