PS: Hackett is a great coach

Josh Hackett is a great coach and will be a good head coach in the very near future. And I believe he is referring to the way SIgnal was a "powerhouse" for a couple years when they were on 3A and 4A enrollment numbers, and then when they jumped up in classification they fell back off to mediocrity. Don't know if that will happen with H20 due to the fact of all the talent that is in Wilson County.

I don’t know if the enrollment has as much to do with the recent success as everyone thinks, in my memory the core players for the last 5 years were kids that were brought up through AT LEAST the junior high.A lot who have been there since kindergarten. Don’t get me wrong there are some who have come here through moving or rezoning of the county, but i think it’s an attitude change, coaches brought in, and players are just overall better than what we have had in the past.

We have not had anyone move in as an upperclassman who made a significant impact from the time he stepped on campus.

After watching them in person I feel like we will match TC’s speed for sure and probably have better skill position players ( for the offense we run) AS A WHOLE than last year. We will however miss the senior leadership those guys provided!

 

We shall see how it all plays out!!

 

 

TC is more of a power run team this year than a speed team that tries to get to the outside totally different offense and entire offensive coach staff from last year is gone. The H20 vs TC will be spread vs power run game.

Thanks.. It’s always great and rare to leave the creekbank with a W!!  

 

Its also great to shut up some of their obnoxious fans (cough.. cough RTD) even if it’s  just for a few weeks!!

 

I personally think we can and should do it again ( if we stay healthy ) but unlike TC fans I want prematurely claim us as automatic Semi finalist or even region champions.

There is a whole lot of football to be played and I haven’t seen the first real game yet!

Lol you'll do shut me up and to be honest, I was worried going into that playoff game with how good H2O game plan was last season I didn't know if we could beat Watertown especially with that beast of a WR you'll. had last year he couldn't have graduated any faster I hope he doesn't have any younger brothers coming up in you'll program.

RTD is ok, one thing I've learned about Trousdale fans is you get absolutely no respect from them or their posters until your team proves themselves to them. If you dont believe me go back and read our semifinal thread with them from last year.

The things you mentioned are definitely factors, but you can't discount doubling the enrollment.

    • 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.
