Next year should be interesting in 4AAA. Everyone will be chasing Bearden and Maryville next year. Catholic loses their top two scorers but their jv team did go 16-0 so the Irish will depend on some younger players contributing. 

Considering that Bearden ran the table undefeated in 4-AAA and their key players are mostly juniors this year, I think everyone, including Maryville, will be chasing them next year. Maryville will have very good guard play and outside shooting, but they need to find a rebounding presence inside for next year to replace a couple of seniors they are losing.

Next year is a ways off and anything can happen with any of these teams.  Nothing ever stays the same. Transfers in, transfers out, kids get hurt, parents get new jobs in different cities, some kids have had enough of the grind, coaches come and go for a variety of reasons, etc. I do think it'll be Bearden and Maryville again next year, but you just never know. Even if Bearden drops a few players, they're still pretty deep and their JV team (and freshman team for that matter) are pretty strong.

But Bearden's jv team was 0-3 vs. Catholic. Sorry Chinadog I couldn't resist lol. They were very talented.

And last years varsity team dropped two to Catholic and one to Oak Ridge, Maryville, Hardin Valley and Lenoir City! See, anything can happen. :)

That team Catholic had last year was special. I’m not sure if the Irish will ever have a team with the basketball IQ and defensive toughness that those guys had. Bearden has had a lot of talented teams over the years but this group of Bulldogs is special as well. How do you think they will stack up with Memphis East? Lets be real winning a title goes through Team Penny. I don’t think Bearden will be intimidated by them.

Would make me nervous. Two kids ranked in the ESPN Top 60 for the class of 2019. #1 being James Wiseman at 6'11". Team was ranked #1 in the national for a while. The Bearden team is special, they won tonight against Powell and they just set the Bearden regular season and all time boys record at 36-1. Pember is hurt, but may be back. They'll need him against East. The Bearden 6'7" kid (#44 - the one senior) had a good night and a putback dunk tonight and plays good D, but they will need Pember if they have any chance. Hopefully the don't meet until the final game.

    • 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.
