Well you said clerical mistake? Ha! Coaches don't keep up with their players. Where they live doesn't matter. Principal let's them in the school, there eligible.  That's the way Knox County plays it. Knox County administration has bigger fish to fry. You know politics and school board, and budgets, and elections etc. Just as long as a few of our schools are competing and winning championship then we are OK. TSSAA sometimes gets it right. I don't know if this is on of those times.                                                     I will tell you who coaches keep up with. They keep up with players who used to play for their team, and now play for another team. And that team is the team we play this week in a region game and the player that used to play for us just made player of the game on TV for the team he now plays for. That's who coaches keep up with.                        I say nothing comes of this. AD will cook the books and Knox County will take care of it's own and it will just be a rumor.               Remember the assistant principal and the star player and the UT head coach. Same song different verse. Maybe it's time for some new computers in North Knox County.

what assistant principal and the star player and the UT head coach are you referring to?? Everything else i agree with!!!

ATHLETICS DEPARTMENT

  • Knox County Schools (KCS) includes fourteen high schools and fourteen middle schools offering opportunities for student participation on athletic teams. The middle schools participate in basketball, track and field, and cheerleading. The high school program consists of seventeen varsity teams per school competing in eleven sports in addition to cheerleading.

    Each high school has an athletic director who supervises and administers the local school athletic program. All coaches are hired at the local school level. Prospective coaches should read our New Coaches page for information and then contact the local high school athletic director for specific vacancies. All high schools are members of Tennessee Secondary School Athletic Association (TSSAA).

    The interscholastic sports programs offer an opportunity for participation in a variety of activities, which are a vital part of a student’s educational experience. Participation is a privilege that carries with it responsibilities to the school, sport, other students, the community, and to the athletes themselves.Participation in interscholastic sports in the Knox County School System is entirely voluntary. The opportunity to participate is extended to all eligible students.
     
     
     
    What does the "Athletics Specialist" at the central office of KCS do?

Lee Smith, went to UT, then transferred to Marshall.  Now TE for Oakland Raiders.

Since you posted some info, I'll post a link. I wasn't going to go down that rabbit hole.

Just saw where a letter to Powell has been sent. I won’t believe it until it’s investigated. I’m sure Powell has all their ducks in a row.

They probably have created a basket weaving , History of  Russian chess champions, or a classical music class that no other Knox County high school has so that they can say he had to go to Powell to get the best education experience. Old trick in Knox County to bolster the football roster. I say all of this rumor stuff is a non starter and the Powell  power wagon keeps rolling on like it always has. Just ask some Central people from the 2000's. Ducks might not be needed to be in a row but the Knox county AD's and administrators  will make it work and come to a compromise to keep the media from moping up and reporting that someone made a clerical mistake like they did in Clarksville this year.

    • OK, well, that’s because two quarterbacks can’t start. That’s football 101. The main quarterback won the starting job, so he was on varsity, and the Seymour transfer did not win the starting job. He played some varsity. He was mainly junior varsity, and he balled out when healthy, so for the starting quarterback who’s been starting varsity since his freshman year, if you have any form of proof that he’s gotten worse, somehow, whether that means stats or whatnot, please feel free to share.
    • 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.
