No ones worried about Peabody, gonna enjoy our win over a good football team tonight. The boys and coaches deserve recognition for fixing what problems we had on the line and what not. If we continue to improve like that come playoffs we will be a well polished machine.

And that’s what you should do bud.

Yeah we play some fun songs every game. That country roads along with sweet caroline is always a fan favorite along with a few more gets the crowd into it alot of times. And I understand man, once I get up there im hemmed in until halftime or game end . Just to many people to wade through. There will be other times hopefully. I'd like to have met Southtowner as well. But I knew I had another shot at that with our teams game against his.

I can't believe Swafford ran it 32 times. His body won't last for college if this keeps up.

Thats just their offense. They don’t feature a premier RB. At least not from what I saw last night. Everything starts and stops with Swafford. If Meigs had another threat they could’ve ran on Greenback all night. I felt like Meigs trying to throw it during 2nd quarter on a couple drives made them fizzle out then that allowed Greenback time to score before the half. This isn’t a shot at Greenback but Meigs was the better team. Greenback is a scrappy team though and their new QB Carnes makes all the difference. Give him time and he will find somebody. Kid is a player. Massive pickup for the Cherokees this offseason. Without him they would not be a threat in East imo but with him and Willis they can score with anyone if they stay healthy. Willis and Swafford are both as good as advertised with Carnes right behind them. He has a cannon and can spin it when he has time.

My take away from the game is that both teams are likely semifinal teams come November with shot at representing the East. Swafford is best player in 1A & 2A and deserves to be mentioned as one of best in state. Kid is a baller. The East still goes through Greenback as long as they keep their QB healthy. Their team can’t afford injuries as they appear to have little depth. Showdown with Pirates will be a good one come November.

Best assessment I've seen for Meigs and probably Greenback as well. Good job!

We got to fix the being tired. That is what kills our execution. Greenback teams don’t get tired! We always play both ways but we typically have a little more depth at all positions. I mean we can’t afford for some to come off at all right now. I think our effort grade gets watered down because we have A effort some plays and a lot of B effort and then in critical moments we have those F effort plays when we should be going for the jugular. So many mistakes on 3rd downs both sides of the ball.  We kill ourselves way too much. We can fix that.

Ladykee (greenback skillet slinger) I garuntee you need to tell that Ryan man to run those boys more.  What is he thinking? You have orchestrated one of the best teams in school history and he cant even get them in shape and had wrong personnel.  This is a bunch of mess.  You think im joking but im not.

    • 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.
