Gallatin has always been a good team. Problem there has never been the athletes. This is the 1st year in a long time they have believed they were good. 
I am a Gallatin believer, two things in High School football make you a winner. Coaching and Believing you are the best. 
GWAVE1, these polls don't mean crap. Strictly for the fans. Gallatin has everyone’s attention. 

We all know they mean nothing, have been saying that since they came out.  Highly highly probable the Wave will have 8 wins at least.  Quite a few were saying early on that would not be the case.  Well here we are 7-0 and the top defense in 5A.  I would just assume everyone just continue looking on and let Gallatin do what they have been doing.  Lots of chirping in the next town over.

Anything less than a 9-1 record would be a dissapointment, IMO. They'll be a favorite against Beech

I do not think Gallatin will be a favorite.  Play at their place with the expectations of being in the state title game since last year, I do not see it.  Crabtree will have those boys ready to hunt bear by the time that happens.  He does not want to let Gallatin off the mat.

I will be quite honest. I didn’t believe you would be where you are. I figured his 1st season would be 5-6 wins. 
I was wrong as were others. I like what Coach Watson has done. I like his leadership. My gut says they need another year. If he can continue thisis III for 3 years, he will build a program that contends year in and year out and may have it already. Coach Short whole program resided on the fact that we believed we would not lose. 
He was a great motivator, he was a great coach. More importantly, he was a winner. Coach Watson could be too. 
Coach Crabtree already is. So is Coach Counce

Honestly, I think that plays to Gallatin's advantage. Not many people have Gallatin much of a chance going into the season, the pressure will be on Beech to win. Gallatin's defense v. Beech's running game, I like my chances

    • 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.
