Future of Grundy County

Having 2 for a year apiece, one who added depth but wasn't a big difference maker, not exactly transfers pouring in. Each apparently had specific issues going on there, not just going to a better program (and at the time wasn't really any better). Another difference is the Grundy guys say that train down to SP is still rolling.

It will be curious to see what all or if any changes will be made soon on the mountain. If none is made I suggest the valley schools make more room because more kids will be coming soon. It truly is a soap opera here people feed off the drama they continue to stir up especially an ex board member that got replaced this last election. The bunch that has and had control is the reason our system and athletics is such an embarrassment. It's time the people on the mountain that has sit back and let it get this way take a stand and voice your opinions and get things back where they need to be.

I didn't see a problem with it either. What made it sad was having to go to the other side to generate donations since the crowd was sparse in the home side. There have been lower crowds here, at Whitwell, S Pitt, Jasper in past lean years but I have never seen a home crowd that low in this immediate area.

 

Yeah I'm late to the party on this one. Indian. I'm in charge of that fundraiser. I send kids to the opposing bleachers at every game. Been doing it all 3 years we've done the grill fundraiser. And in 2015 someone from the opposing team that we played the last home game won the grill package. 

 

On a side note we're thinking about maybe doing something different like a vacation package for the fundraiser next year....

 

Wait...you guys were talking about football..... Have I told you about high school bass fishing?

    • 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.
