Here is a question for debate. I think everyone will agree that Whitwell, Cornersville, Greenback and Huntingdung were probably the 4 best teams in 1A and very close together in ability. However there was a big difference in number of kids selected all state. Whitwell and Greenback with 6 and Huntingdung with only 1. Wonder why that is??

I would have to say SP and Lake County were also in that top group. The difference in them and the group of Whitwell, Greenback, and Cornersville was large, dominant senior classes. Huntingdon got 1 chosen and SP got 2 chosen. I believe it’s because they were both eliminated in the quarterfinals. Usually, the team in the semifinals and beyond receive the largest bulk of the picks and that held true again.

I agree as well on the top 5-6 all could have won state

2013 GB was a quarter team and had 5.Your assessment holds no water.:popcorneater:

I already told you a West Tn sportswriter whom i was introduced to in 2016 in Cookeville told me that the awards are for regular season no matter when they meet to vote.

Ok, I didn’t remember you telling me that one. Was that before or after all of those adult beverages we had with Roy and GbNation in Cookeville in 2017?

He’s probably a pretty good player. I’m just saying Stewart for SP was likely the best lineman on the field during our two games. It is ashame he didn’t make the list. And yes... it’s crazy that Wingo didn’t make the team as well. 

Stewart  deserved to be on there as well. He is a very very good player.

If yahoo is an adult beverage then we are guilty if not he is fibbing!:-D

The yahoo was spiked with “Red Bull” and that “Horny Goat” stuff. Then you boys went and kidnapped Roy and promptly treated him like Ned Beatty. I guess it all adds up. Whoever spiked the Yahoo drinks is responsible for Roy’s disappearance last year.

    • Deja vu all over again, 7 yrs apart. SMDH Does anybody talk to each other?
    • 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.
