I'm hearing of a scrimmage with Hampton in Fall Practice, any truth to this?

 

Scrimmage against Hampton is scheduled for August 4th at GCA, unless it has changed since the last revised schedule was sent out. Should be a good litmus test for both programs. Ready for some Friday Night Lights

You can tell we've moved to the DII boards when Bobby Boucher starts throwing out words like "litmus test". No need to try to impress these kind folks Bobby, they don't think we're worthy of a seat at the table, lol.

 

Hampton is going to be Hampton. Brewster has a long relationship with the Mike's (now just 1 Mike). They will come in and try to run it, run it again, then run it some more. We'll see what the D-Line and LB's have for the Dogs. Should be fun.

The fans should be realistic with Coach Bradley and the expectations for this year.  GCA will be better and he will eventually build them into a championship program in time.  Some players will be the foundation of the model he builds.  Others that are expected to be key contributors will likely end up pursuing other endeavors.  I'd expect this year to be a work in progress.  In November the Rams will be dangerous and a difficult draw in the playoffs.

I'm going to come to as many games as I can this year. Can't wait to the first scrimmage to see how they do. I'm just so glad they got Bradley and think there are great things to come plus those are the best hamburgers I've had at a high school game.

Pride like the hot dogs.:rolleyes:

If GCA got a good defensive coordinator to go along with Bradley they will be tough to beat.

We didn't have to look for one, he was already in place and CRB kept him in the same position. Coach Bradley has added a few really good assistants on the defensive side of the ball, as well. Looks like a solid staff.

    • 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.
