The Lions looked pretty good in their close losss to Bartlett in a Hall of Fame Game on Tuesday. Strong performances were given by Seniors Trey Williams and John Bradford. It appears as though Bradford has really worked on his perimeter shot and is dangerous on the outside and big enough to play down low with a lot of agression. He appears to be stepping up to fill the gap that Matt Shansky('02) left as far as rebounding is concerned. Trey is also a vey agressive player, and can shot very well. The Lions played two quarters in the DII West Jamboree tonight, losing to ECS 19-16, and beating Briarcrest 16-4 (I think it was four, not positive). The Lions got off to a slow start with ECS and allowed them to control the tempo. But despite a 3-10 deficit, 19-16 isn't too shabby. They looked excellent against Briarcrest with stellar defense and great shot selection. The Lions will play at Cumberland County on Saturday, I think it's a Hall of Fame Game. They are in a Thanksgiving Classic somewhere around Nashville playing Jackson County next Friday and Loudon on Saturday. There is certainly some room for improvement between now and late February, but Harding is off to a great start.

GO LIONS!!!

ECS looked pretty good, but CBHS played Lausanne and both of those teams looked good. They ended tied at 19. You always have to consider MUS in the postseason because of their tradition, look at last year for example. I didn't think Lausanne looked as good as they did last year, but Gasol can throw a kink into anyone's picks. I think Harding will win the region, MUS will get second, and Lausanne will beat ECS for third. It should be a fun season. Hopefully we will send three teams from Memphis to Murfreesboro and Harding will win it all.

GO LIONS!

Bartlett beat lausanne tonight 66-61, gasol and taylor are really good! Harding is gunna run the show in the West. ECS just got one qtr. They will be the only competition. BCS is young so they wont do anything. MUS has Baum, Baum, and Baum. Bishop Byrne has Hampton and im sure more athletes. CBHS isnt as good as they where last year and shouldnt be able to compete w/ Harding. And St. Bendict is bad!

 

Picks:

1. harding

2. ECS

3. BCS

4. lausanne

5. CBHS

6. MUS

7. Bishop Byrne

8. St. bendict

9. catholic

    • 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.
