We won a very sloppy and very costly ballgame tonight. We came out flat after beating a top notch division 1 team on friday, and let NAIA school Mo. Valley hang around. Won by 23 I think, but man was it ugly. This win was very costly as well, our starting powerfoward David Wilkerson, a juco junior transfer broke his kneecap and is done for the year. This is a huge loss not only b/c he's 6'6 260 but also because we were already thin inside. Anyways a W is a W and we travel to MTSU on wednesday. Oh, and we had a great crowd tonight, we appreciate the support. Go Hawks!

I hate to hear that David is done for the year, but I think Coach Campbell will have the HAWKS motivated. As a former SKYHAWK I was there for the Cal Luther era. Since the coaching change the program has been going in the right direction. Keenan, Joey, Kelley, and Earl will have to step it up. GO HAWKS. Good luck to Skyhawks volleyball, and finding a new football coach.

Did Union play the way they were capable of playing Thursday night? 72-60 I believe was the final score. And just to add something Union returned 4 starters from a team that went 31-5, and UTM returned 1 starter from a team that went 15-14. It's a different league that we play in and Union doesn't have a chance.

    • 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.
