New Region 3 should benefit all the county schools when it comes to wins and losses. Dropping Smyrna and adding Coffee County should result in another win if recent history tell us anything but it will make those in county games even more important.

Coffee was already in the region. The only change was Smyrna out.

Have they at least painted the 'Chief' statue yet?  He hasn't been painted since Rankin left!  His getting his fresh coat of paint was an every winter task for the team.

We had offered to pay to have it painted and had found an artist to do it right last fall and were told it was a Nolan project. We'll stay on it and make sure it gets done before next season. Its gotten to the point where it will have to be blasted and repaired before it gets painted.

THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

That is the first question I get from the 'clone' every time he calls home.  It was REALLY bothering him.  He went over to look at it when he was home on leave Christmas time.  Came home cussing a blue streak after he saw it.

Well as of 2-2-17 there is NO schedule on the teams web site either.

 

Is anybody doing anything with the team as to weight training and conditioning?  For that matter have we got a strength Coach YET?  On the web site it still says TBD.

the website went to crap after wyant left, i had always thought riverdale had the best high school website i had ever seen at the time in the early 2000's, the tomahawk chop played, had stats from all games and recent news, links to national ranks, mr football winners, records against each team "updated records, not just til 2006" just about anything you cld think of, and everything on the old website was clean and neat and it was updated weekly not once every now and then with a copy and paste from the dnj

Looks like you don't have a true pulse of the program since they've hada former D1 college coach running the S/C program since last summer.

Then they should have put him or her on the web site. When the program was at its peak, there were enough Coaches to go around for LOTS of things. ie there were 17 Coaches with the program at one time. Then there was the Freshman team Coaches that 'helped' Varsity on Friday nights.

 

Pulse, no as my son graduated the year before Coach A started. There does not seem to be many Dads from the current team on here.

LOD, what year would this have been?  Yes, I've been cleaning up my computer.  Really miss the days when they published those spreadsheets so you could track progress.  Accountability was more than talk back then.

    • 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.
