If Fulton had any nuts they turn Powell in for recruiting 

It doesn't take a school or coach to "turn in" a school.  If you have knowledge of recruiting then by all means call the TSSAA office in Hermitage.  

Otherwise, your whining is getting really old.

Hard to believe Fulton is 0 4. Last year besides Alcoa and Oakland Fulton ga e Maryville their toughest game. 

If we keep making hambone mistakes every game like we have against Bearden, Alcoa and Farragut there's always that chance. Really starting to worry about McMinn and Bradley if those mistakes continue. If Farragut hadn't of fumbled with 6 minutes to go and we got a 2 score lead I'm not sure we would have won the other night.

While I am all for giving kids a choice where they want to go to school, the fact that both of Powell's FR wideouts are Fulton kids is a little suspicious.

And Freshmen is the key word.  As long as a student starts his/her freshman year at a school he or she is eligible to play sports, no matter where that school is in relation to his/her home. 

So, has it been ok for all of those out of zone kids to go to Fulton for all of these years?  And I am not in any way pointing fingers at Fulton for doing anything illegal.  They simply took advantage of the magnet school status Knox County gave them.  

Same thing with Powell and every other school in Knox County.  They all have out of zone kids who play sports and they use the transfer policies to allow them to enroll.

I understand the rule, but it is amazing that Josh goes to Powell, and then all of those players end up at Powell. As I said, I am all for school choice for any reason. Fulton and others have taken advantage of and broken these rules for years, so I don't feel sorry for them in the slightest. Powell is just the latest.

    • 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.
