Just a question and I am very sincere when I ask this. What do you really know about a kid from the west? Example Tanner Snyder or Larry Tubbs from Lake County or the Ensley kid from Huntingdon. Ya'll do an excellent job of coving middle Tn and east Tn but not so much from the west. I listen to y'all's show and enjoy it very much but the coverage from the west is way behind that of middle and east Tn. Mr. Football is more than numbers. I did get a chuckle out of you guys when yall said the Lake County/Dresden game was a pick em. Have you guys ever reached out to coach Puckett from Lake County or many other coaches from the west excluding Swenson and the Covington coach? I am not putting you guys down. Like I said I enjoy the show but the west has many good players and coaches also.

EDITED:  We did say that might be a close game, (we both picked Lake County) but it was early in the season and we thought Dresden would be better than they've proven to be.   

At any rate, you are correct, we probably have given much less coverage to West Tennessee that the other two..  I do make an effort to call Coaches over there at least every other week.    We've only made two trips outside Middle Tennessee to do our show and both were East.  As most know, we receive no money for what we do, so we have a full time job that dictates when we can take those trips.   We hope to plan a trip West next year.

We don't know about every kid on every team across the State.   That is exactly why I put up this thread to get information.   As I told someone else, if a kid is mentioned I haven't heard about, I'll go dig up HUDL video on them if it's available.   At least we are trying to gather information before casting a ballot.

You know, I've been very patient with you, but I'm done with you.  I ask these questions on a Statewide format (CoachT) which happens to sponsor my show.   I COVER STATEWIDE!  EVERY WEEK I COVER GAMES STATEWIDE.   I INTERVIEW COACHES ON MY SHOW EVERY WEEK STATEWIDE!  WE ARE THE ONLY ONES THAT I KNOW OF WHO DO THAT.   

Why I'm wasting my time explaing myself to a jerkoff I have no idea.   It typically takes a lot to rile me up, sir, but congratulation.  You've done it!   This is the last response I'll waste my time directing at you.   Good luck to my good friend Eric Swenson who joins me frequently on my STATEWIDE show.   I hope to the Lord above he doesn't have to deal with too many fans like yourself.

I just ask you a question and you going to whine about it. How does me asking you something got anything to do with Swenson and fans jerkoff? If you riled up that easy you shouldn’t be reporting on sports sugar.

Would love to see you guys come to Huntingdon for the semi finals for the ANTICIPATED game with Lake Co

Theres a lot of kids from the west that could have the numbers.But when Hunt and LC are scoring 50 points at halftime. The subs come in and hurts their starters.Both teams along with South Pitts are unbeaten for a reason

I agree but GB will be as good. Both semi final games will be worth the drive

A lot of folks don't realize that Rutgerson is a pretty good QB too. If Braden wasn't the Cherokee QB , Willis would still be putting up great numbers. As folks have already stated, he's a matchup nightmare for most teams. GB coaches would have found a way to get him the ball and Wyatt could have pulled the trigger.

  Rutgerson is a phenomenal athlete for GB! He hasn’t stood out necessarily in one position this season, but that is not because of lack of ability. They play Rutgerson all over the field and he has shown to be dangerous at all of them! He is great out of the backfield, he can pull in tough catches and make big plays when they spread him out, and he has proven that he is more than capable to take snaps behind center. He is also lethal when returning kicks. Not to mention that he is a lockdown DB! Willis and Carnes are great ball players and I do not mean to take anything away from them, but Rutgerson has not received near the recognition that he deserves for his performances this season.

  The GB squad is more than solid and should make their way deep into the playoffs, if not bring home a golden ball!

    • 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.
