Coalfield should represent the east in 2017, but 2018-2020 could be a different story.

Assuming you are talking about this young group of Pirates coming up. They should be great, providing they havent peaked already. They already look like high school kids so what happens when or if other teams catch them in size when they mature? Pirates have done an awesome job of filling their needs from outside the community. Time will tell how great these Pirates can be, on paper, the sky is the limit.

I'm talking about the fact that Coalfield loses a lot this coming season. The 2018 season could be a good one for Gordonsville and SP. I hope the 10th-8th grades at SP provide us with some exciting times. Do they have more than a couple of kids from outside the community on this rising team? I was thinking they have a rising 11th grade QB as well as a rising 9th grader. Am I missing someone?

The qb that's going to be a freshman will be a hoss. You know how rumors are around here but I've heard from a few that the junior qb was gone.

I agree, we gave Greenback all they wanted in the playoffs and the regular season game for that matter and those games where at Greenback, heck South Pitt played them at home. All they talk about is the Coalfield teams they beat in the past that were hardly average in most years. Those teams in the past weren't suppose to beat SP, so what's the big deal. Livin in the past these Pirates are!

The future hasn't happened yet unless you have a Flux Capacitor we don't know about.

    • 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.
