I'm gonna throw it on out there.  Alcoa-38 AE-7.  I think it will be interesting for about 1 1/2 quarters.  If AE had depth they would be a legitimate threat the last coupla years.  They have some athletes, just not enough of them.  

Agree. Not sure how us GOONS did not get Foster and Ligons into some Maroon and Aluminum!:thumb:

Because their family went to AE and they weren’t going anywhere else .... So GP was right y’all do be recruiting :roflol:

Family don’t have anything to do with why they they went to AE. It’s rosters full of kids whose parents went to AE but they go else where. Alcoa doesn’t flat Out recruit but they do make sure they come to Knoxville to watch little league games.

Let me rephrase that ;   1 has an uncle that’s on staff and lives 2 minutes away from AE so he wasn’t going anywhere .  The other has parents that went to AE and lives a few blocks away from AE so with that said, why leave a school you’re zone for to go to another school ?  Sometimes it’s not always about winning !!!!

And that person stated, “I wonder why the GOONS didn’t get those 2 players in ALUMINUM and MAROON”. That makes you be on GP side about you all recruiting ..... But hey you gotta do what you gotta do to win.   Good Luck with that .   AE don’t recruit !  There’s a lot of teams that take AE players every year .  Coach Philips and staff just coach the ones that want to be there .  They don’t beg them to stay but they do wish them the best of luck !  It’s Hard Being A Roadrunner

    • 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.
