Yes, but with more and more schools starting football I don’t see it ever happening. 

I understand.   But I feel the Association will try something just for the sake of trying something.  Something different than what we've had in a while. 

All the privates are finally gone now. And Idk what the final tally is but not everyone was able to fill a 10 game schedule.  

Word was last year because of slumping attendance especially the first round of playoffs the Association is looking at everything anew.

Of course they are.. it’s too easy to be like the other states and just stay with the same thing all of the time.

Either way, the MainEventman has Whiwuhl at #9 which is even worse.  Murph's dragging his feet I guess until is book comes out.   They have been low in other preseason polls as well and then here comes Murph with 4 preseason allstate players.  Something is going to give somewhere.

Murphy usually releases 1 pole a day.  Albeit they are all date stamped the same day. His 2018 pole doesn't look too awfully bad for this year.  He's got the top 4 in the top 5 anyway.

Trousdale has usually been on the enrollment breaking point.  They are one of the smallest 2A schools or one of the larger 1A schools.  

That is normal for their numbers.  I doubt anything sneaky going on. 

Last year there was 1 kid difference I think it was between Peabody and Trousdale on enrollment.

Jayden Hicks will likely play QB he will look exactly like Baines did last year, Cameron Rankins will move to FB and also stay at LB, big kid will finally be healthy and will be a man child in this offense. Those 2 are good but it wouldn't surprise me to see Mason Basford get some recognition before the season is over, strong kid that is finally starting to get the size (6'2 280). He is a JR that was invited to the All American Combine in Canton in June, he is being looked at by several OVC schools. And "JUICEEE" Claiborne will likely finish as an all-state selection as he is predicted to be.  

Sounds like a good season waiting to happen.

Should be a interesting one for sure, maybe we will get to make that trip to Meigs this year. You guys will be there, we have some work to do but have a great group of kids. 

Will Coach Satterfield be returning to the old school WingT his daddy made famous for years on The Creekbank? Better yet, will his dad be running the offense for him?

It will be more Trousdale Tradition than the last few years, not going to put it all out there, it will come out in due time, but I would expect us to still be somewhat multiple just more focus on being physical.

    • 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.
