My bet would be on South Greene to repeat as State Champs! I also thing Gibson County, Middleton, Moore County, and 2 of the 3 between Clarkrange, Pickett Co, and Jackson Co. In District 7A, anything can happen, and I could see any of those three making it, though I believe PC and Clarkrange have to be the front runners!! I do not see anyone in the Chattanooga area competing for a spot this year as Van Buren has in the last few years. 

Agreed, South Greene looked unstoppable last year and with everyone returning i don't look for that to change but one never knows.  Clarkrange and Pickett will be the favorites out of 7A  and GC, Middleton and Moore County should all have a chance to return.  I do know that Moore County changed Head Coaches so not sure what impact that will have.  Anyone know anything about their new coach?

Right now looking at the west from A I say Middleton and Gibson County. Still think the Lady Pioneers have enough to get back. But on that next tier, watch for Peabody and Gleason. They could surprise a lot of people.

I agree on Middleton out of the west but the number 2 team from the west could be any number of 5 or 6 teams.  Certainly GC will be in that mix, but without a sharpshooter and a guard that can get hers at will like last year, I think it will be an uphill battle for GC.  Peabody will be solid, Gleason will be good if they are hitting shots, and there may be two or three others that could emerge.  It is going to be a fun season!

I'm rolling with Peabody and Middleton from the west this year... I may be wrong though..

GC, I saw on the Jackson Sun online scores that both Gibson County and Middleton lost their opening games. was that a typo? If not, what is your take? Did both teams just lose too much talent? What's going on over there?

Middleton should have won by 10+...they was up 6 or 7 at the half...turnovers hurt them bad...plus I personally think the refs called a bad game.

Middleton will be fine... Chelsea Perry might be the best player in Single A basketball (19 points, 20 rebounds, 9 blocks last night against one of the top AA in the state speaks volume)...

 

Gibson County won't quite be what they were last year, but they'll still be good. The loss of Bri Fields and Erin Lannom is quite a bit. Bri is playing really well at Bethel by the way. Gibson will win 20+ games and how far they go in the tournaments will depend on how well they play at that time.

    • 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.
