Spring practice will officially start tomorrow afternoon.

I'm sad to say that this is the first year I am not really excited for a new season. Too many losing seasons and things have only gotten worse under Shad.

In my opinion, the Govs need to win at least 4 games this year (with one of those wins being Heritage) or Shad is not the guy for the job. 

I want to see a defense that isn't dead last in 6A too. Will we be able to stop Mcminn's inept offense with no passing threat on 3rd and 9? How about 4th and 5? Stay tuned.

Without looking at the schedule, at least four wins including hairtage should be the floor in LA. Sadly, it has become the ceiling. Maybe things will improve for the good folks of LA.

The Guvna is in show me mode now.  After the way last year went, I am having a hard time seeing how things are going to be much different this year. The Govs had a big line last year and couldn't push anyone around. 

 

Guess we'll have to see when they scrimmage South-Doyle next week. No doubt they hit bottom last season and should see much progress this year with good senior class leadership. They have done a great job in raising money for many improvements which will be great for the fans and the team. I never really could tell the place was in the condition it was until I went to the restroom and it looked like someone hired Earl Scheib to do one of his 99 dollar special paint jobs. They'll have to call in the Property Brothers from HGTV to get that mess straightened out.1604fc.jpg

    • 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.
