Spring Football Scrimmages are starting to be fizzled out at many programs.  The combination of spring sports taking place and risking an injury going into summer workouts is just too great of a chance nowadays.  Teams get more out of 7vs7 in the summer before they start fall practice and the Scrimmages and Games really crank up.

How are most schools handling Spring Football and kids that participate in other Spring sports?

What do most football programs do with regards to kids that participate in Summer baseball and AAU basketball?  If the kids are participating in legitimate national tournaments are they excused from early Fall practices or are they punished or cut from the football team?

I can say at Gallatin that kids have been encouraged to play multiple sports.  When Ponchez Mason played just a few years ago, he competed in a travel baseball team that were playing at a high level and that coincided with early fall football practices.  He did what he could until the baseball games were over and he could practice full time.  Did not seem to hurt him at all since he is at Georgia Tech on a full ride and was a Mr Football finalist.

My experience at murvil was good. They let him play baseball in the spring. I don’t think they would have liked missing fall practice though. I would guess you would be treated like any other missed practice-xtra running.

That's the problem that I have with football coaches.  If you have a kid that is a legitimate college recruit and their national tournament is in late July the coaches want to punish them if they show up to practice the day after the national tournament is over.

From a smaller school 85% of our skill guys are on the track. This is our time to get a look our big boys and some of the younger guys. Mostly freshmen and sophomores.

      And can you tell me who those two quarterbacks were, and every kid that was put into college from Bearden is a Bearden kid? It’s kind of why they graduated from Bearden.   and I would definitely not consider ETSU “waste”…

      Most of this is complete gibberish. But the one part I could decipher is putting kids in college. This coaching staff hasn’t put a single Bearden kid in college. They completed wasted one of the best WRs in East TN and have ruined two talented QBs. All because they’re in over their heads.

      Well, I’d hope the new coaching staff thinks they are all that because they can always walk around the school, anytime they want, thinking that, especially for what they’ve done for the student athletes and the players, putting more kids in college in his first season than the old coaching staff did in numerous years combined, but we will just sweep over that because I know you don’t like facts. But trust me, nobody wanted Mr. Big britches, made the star player switch to quarterback, which is ultimately the reason he ended up transferring to play the position. He loved, but unfortunately, had to be at another school because Mr. Big Britches doesn’t like when a teenager knows more than him, but can’t expect much coming from a guy who used all class throwing pencils up into the ceiling and making fun of football kids who were failing class right to their face, and in front of numerous students, even projecting on the board most of the time.

      After that first paragraph, I can see why you’re a TA and not a teacher. Have you made the move from South Knoxville to Bearden yet?    Maybe he left because he is an actual teacher and coach, and didn’t want to be associated with a group of foul mouthed middle school coaches who like to pretend they’re big time.

      Yeah and the coach is gone. Whole bizarre situation here. We played them a couple of times at MTSU last few years. She was a player for sure.
