McMinn Central RB with 100yds in first half? Where was that last week?!?! :/

Are you sure he got 100 in the first half? I know he carried a lot and I know Alcoa started subbing after they got ahead 14-0, but it would surprise me if he had 100 the first half.

Why aren't the Central coaches using the quickest and probably fastest player on the team, Brice Mason?

He had 85 first half.  Good job between tackles.

Surprised he had that much but I admit I didn't see every offensive play.

 

What's the deal with them not using Brice Mason more than they have? It does not make sense to not be using his speed and quickness.

What number is Mason?

#3 can play.He had a few good runs early before he broke the big run at the end of the 3rd.

Might have something to do with him not go through spring, summer workouts, fall camp, etc. Not very fair to the kids that put in the work and effort during that period. He was stopped on an end around in the 1st Q but had nice plays in the 2nd half against their JV. They put him in early but I guess since Jackson was averaging 6-8 yards a carry they stuck with that? 

 

* Jackson's 100yds came against Alcoa's 1s (Needed this Oline effort last week!)

* Alcoa did not sub in the 1st half...

The coaches asked him to play. When he decided to play, he should have been given every opportunity whether or not he practiced in the spring and summer. Saying it isn't fair doesn't cut it with me if he's a better athlete who's already put in several weeks of practice. Is it fair to him to not be used since the coaches asked him to play? Life isn't always fair, and at their age it should be known by all players that if someone is better then they'll play more. If Brice is more athletic, faster, and quicker than other players playing the same position he needs to be used more than he has, is all I'm saying.

 

I'm not knocking Jackson at all. However, his 85 first half yards came against Alcoa's defensive starters AND backups. I'm a defensive guy and watched Alcoa play several defensive linemen, ends, and linebackers the first half - not sure about their secondary. Not much of a step down in talent with their defensive players though, so credit goes to our offensive line and Jackson's running.

Agreed! ðŸ‘ðŸ¼

    • 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.
