It's pretty safe to say when started it can be completed just within a month. Those dates were accurate on the days I took those pics. The second go around when we had to replace the field it went a little slower because they had to remove the turf and they resurfaced areas of the field that had small depressions.  Those installers come from out of town and they want to get the job done faster than you do because they want to go home afterwards.

Just don't order a crane or any other equipment from the same people that UT did when they were trying to get Botch off of the Jumbotron.  #JustSaying

Well they're gonna need one to set the press box on the visitors side. Have to take down fences, and get onto the field to set this thing. And they already have it assembled in storage. There is a lot of prep work that should have already been done by the City. But the process is now being run by politicians so I don't expect much!

Went to Gallo Loco last night for $ taco night. Huge rain storm while I was there and left while a moderate rain was happening. Drove the half block to Blankenship to see if any activity. Sprinkler system going full blast. Hope it's not too wet for work to begin this week.  Seems strange, but once again, I'm not in the business.

    • 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.
