I honestly have no idea on the AHS front, just repeating what I heard. I always expect Alcoa to be in it in the end, would be a fool to think that stopped now.

Holler at me before the semi final game. If both teams make it, its in Alcoa this year. Always good to meet fellow coach T folks get something to eat and talk HS football, et.

Cookeville has a big QB problem. Having a guy starting that hasn’t taken a snap against the UHS defense will be tough on a lot of levels. Caine is running a better program at the moment than Cookeville. Your point about sheer numbers is certainly valid and could be true, but UHS has about 40 kids and has some depth on the lines where it is really important.

Squatch and York are definitely the threats to UHS in the District. The other teams... not so much. They haven’t gotten 30 points better compared to UHS which they would have to to make up the gap. The Bee offense won’t be as explosive, but the defense will be. Grundy, Cannon and Smith won’t be able to hang in 2019 imo. Oneida is an interesting game, not sure what they have coming back but I’ll take the strong UHS defense.

I don’t think it’ll be as easy of a road to 10-0 again this year, but I think it happens.

I expect the Bees to beat the Cavs once again this year. However their QB will not be the reason. He has played ALOT of football and is a close match for the upperman kid as an athlete.  Super intelligent. Works hard. Has speed for days. Probably more elusive in the open field as a runner. Probably not as good of a passer and less experienced. I would imagine they will bring a heavy option game due to his strength as a runner. He will be the best QB they have had in awhile. He will bring a running threat cookeville hasnt had at that position.  Excited to see what he brings as a starter. Probably be the best QB UHS will face all regular season IMO.  Kid will be a star his senior season. You heard it here first.

Smith will beat them this season. I'm telling you don't sleep on Smith County there going to remind everyone this yr that the Owls are still a team to never over look.  Seen Squatch against Dekalb in the spring and it was sad. Dekalb absolutely beat the heck out of them. Yes it was spring bla bla bla. It didn't matter to Dekalb it was spring. Smith and UHS will be the only 2 teams at the top of this division I think the Owls win it.

Yeah, couldn't even score on Clay County in scrimmage.  I guess that undefeated talk will go away

Lol would of scored almost every drive of it wasnt 10 play series. Most every Clay county play was negative yardage. We started slow last year also. With that being said them boys from Celina would probably beat half our region. Played the backup QB for half of it also. We may not go undefeated but we will be smashing York for sure.

Bubba I was a yr early ask around Dekalb is back and and Got a great class of Seniors and Juniors that are great. I'm absolutely ready for this season to start.  Smith will beat Upperman this yr. Look Coaching can absolutely get you a long way but talent wise I know what the Beez have and I know what the Owls have. Owls win.

    • 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.
