One thing is for sure. Both schools are doing something right when it comes to academics.Just went to DB's senior awards and there were 87 seniors with atleast a 4.0 or better.

That's pretty awesome. I wonder if any of them knows how to start a lawn mower.

I'll take that two ways.Doubt some kids anywhere have enough common sense to do a lot of every day things such as start a mower,much less use one.The 2nd way might be one of the greatest downfalls of our generation.That being,many of our kids are given way more and have had to do way less.That's where we hope by leading them to the water,( getting an education and having resources available to secceed ) they will drink it and not use it as a place to relieve themselves.

Well they must all leave town when they graduate............JUST KIDDING!

Well with that said,if you drive your vehicle through Greeneville on any normal day and do not use foul language towards another driver.Then your either very lucky or a saint.I think NET may not only be the lost state of Franklin but also the worst drivers in the state and Greeneville is still it's capital.

If I’m not mistaken Greeneville City is Ranked the #1 school system in the state 

Depends on what website you search.  They are all over the place.  Some website called Niche has Greeneville at 1, but school digger has them at 24.  Regardless, the city school systems in the state generally score much higher than county districts.  It'll be interesting to see if there is a change in achievement when Greene County 6A high school is born.

If they do make a 6A school and do away  with most of the other county schools in Greene county .I'm sure it will be a joy for a lot of parents and kids just to get there.It's going to be something in Sullivan county but I can't imagine the bus ride or drive some would have in Greene county.

The bus routes can’t be longer than an hour.  It’ll be a logistics nightmare and I am sure.  I think it’ll be overall positive.

yeah it’ll be great for sullivan county.  The part where the three schools who are more affluent ended up with a new high school and the oldest high school in the county ends up getting nothing.  Oh yeah also the poorest population in the county.

not bitter, no sir not me.  Also, Greeneville does have a solid academic program in all seriousness.  Can’t blame any parent for wanting to go there.  Two taxes wins the day.

    • 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?
