Guy @ the JC Press talks fans off the ledge after the Greeneville loss, says it is no big deal for DB and the Indians will still have a fine season:

Overreaction No. 3

Dobyns-Bennett is in for a long season against Class 6A teams.

Supporting evidence: The Indians lost by two touchdowns to Class 4A Greeneville.

Best takeaway

Greeneville is a state-title threat in Class 4A, and the Indians were ahead, 21-14, entering the fourth quarter. And they out-gained Greeneville, 422-300. This game was not a big negative for D-B.

I posted or meant to post the DB rushing yards. The 422 yards concern me. Can we hold the Tribe's rushing game? I am banking on DB not having a RB as good as Dykes and we will be okay.

That's funny. They must have played our mystical school in 1928. OR wasn't even a city in those days, let alone a school haha

I run that site (alone). I do make a mistake every now and then keying in thousands of scores and teams. I will revisit my files and fix the issue if I can determine the team that should have been the opponent in that game. My sincerest apologies.

Update: D-B's opponent in 1928 that it beat 61-0 was Doak High School. Thus, I will make the change in the database tonight. Also, will change Oak Ridge's 1960 record from 8-1-1 to 8-2 as they lost to D-B that year. Those changes will put the series at 21-18 Oak Ridge's advantage in database.

Hey man, that site is great!!       You have done a fantastic job, so absolutely no worries over a boo-boo every now and then.   I can't even fathom trying to collect all those scores....

DB has a pretty formidable cast in the back field one in particular is Keyo Taylor I think he's 6-4 about 280 (he is listed 6-0, 240 It's definitely a misprint)  and he's just a sophomore. He didn't carry the ball much at Greeneville but when he did it had to be pretty scary for the other team the kid is a beast !

For oak ridge fans. Jordan Graham wasn't utalized the correct way! I'm looking forward to seeing him break loose Friday. If oak ridge loses it will be because lack of coaching 

The knifes are out already? I will trust the coaches over an unknown CoachT Poster making his/her third post. Jordan Graham will be fine and have an outstanding season but it will be hard for him. Every team will scheme to keep him wrapped up. With that said welcome Elitesports4

RWR - beat DB

I don't know how much the kid weighs but I'll bet you a steak dinner it's not 280.

    • 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. 
    • No my fight, but ... if they were already college-caliber prior to transferring to BHS, and they already had FBS interest, and they end up at an FBS school, how did Bearden do anything for them?
