GREENE 28

Powell 3

Love to see that but the Devils will have to bring a lot more then I seen last week to get it done .On paper we are still loaded and I hope it works out that way.Right now,I'd take a  15-14 ugly "W" over a very good Powell team.

I don’t see any reason to fret over a scrimmage. I think sometimes too much emphasis are put on them as far folks trying to predict how their team will play in full blown live game.  I watched a couple of them and either of the teams didn’t really show much from what I seen, and a lot of rotation of players going in an out of the scrimmage.  Last year some folks said the same thing about the Fulton scrimmage. Yea, we know this years team is not like last years, but it’s gonna be alright, alright I say. We’ll miss some of the guys from last year team more than what we’re probably thinking, but I believe folks are going to see more from this year’s team rise up than what’s been seen or heard thus far come 8/22.

Powell has a great team no doubt, but I’m ALL IN on this game and Greene takes care of business and leaves no doubt.  If I am wrong, then I’ll take it on the chin and eat some of that Powell crow :)

I hope your right .Myself,as long as the team is clicking come playoff time, is what matters the most.I believe it was an early game against MW a few years ago that made a lot of fans think it might not be another awesome year.Ended up being pretty dang good.

No way does Powell only score 3. Game will be decided by less than 10 points if there are no injuries and both teams play like they can.

I am a fan of Greeneville and have been going back to the Alcoa and Greeneville battles. But, what Coach Lowe is building by at Powell is going to be one of the top teams in 5A. Greeneville will be a great team again,  but not what they where the last couple of years. No, way Greeneville wins 28-3. This will be a much better game than that !

This is a extremely tuff opener for the Devil's. On the road at one of the picks to be around at the end in 5A. Just need to play clean football no turnovers. And have to play better up front on both sides of the ball than they did in the scrimmages. Also hope for some new Thing's on offense some of what they did in the passing game last year will not be the strength of this year's team. If the line blocks long enough to get the passes off. GHS has the receivers to make the difference. They must use the middle of the field more. And not rely on the bubble screen.

Greeneville's bubble screen looked pathetic against DB a few days ago.   Of course it was just a scrimmage, maybe the Devils were playing band members and a few cheerleaders instead of the 1's.   Whoever it was, they just did not have the same intensity as past Devil's teams.      Maybe that was all sandbagging so that teams like Powell go in overconfident.

Expect to see a lot of new things Thursday night. Hammonds has been holding them back. As he was quoted on 5starpreps saying that

    • 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.
