Schools recruit themselves at this point. If i’m a kid in Blount County i want to play for Maryville or Alcoa. If i’m a kid in Williamson I want to play for Ravenwood or Brentwood/Independence. If i’m in Rutherford I want to play for Oakland or Blackman.  Parents will move their kids so they have better opportunities. Now, some counties do have more relaxed/easier ways to switch schools and some schools find ways to get players that might be considered “sketchy”.

After playing that team from the West side of the bracket, I have more respect for Oakland. Yeah, Creasy has to say things like, “how about that rain, how about that mud” at the end of games to keep the faithful happy. And somebody in the press box likes to play “Turn out the Lights” real loud at the end of games, but between the lines I think they respect the game and do things the right way. I’m not real sure what lessons that last bunch is learning. 

I don't love the song but i have learned to appreciate willie nelson more as a singer.   And they have probably played it since we lost last in 2014 to Maryville.

Lol it’s cool I was pulling for Maryville. Maryville might not have the must talent. They are so well coached and play together it makes up for the talent

Normally I would agree with this, but not this year. This team was one of the exceptions with #44 and #3 being 2 of the best players on the field every Friday -if not the best. When you put that with the program and above avg coaching, I’m not sure there was much doubt about them this yr. Yeah, the zebras might get you one game or you could turn it over a handful of times and lose, but barring those situations this team was the favorite. With that said, they stayed out of trouble, avoided big season ending injuries, and accomplished their goal. Congrats to those guys-well deserved.

Welcome-to-Blount-County.png

One of your bet posts so far. Appreciate the shout out to 1975 Walland state champions. Wish Lanier could have gotten one before they created WB. Had a shot in 70s and their best team was probably in the 60s before the playoff system.  Had the states leading scorer for two years and other talented guys including a guy that had a cup of coffee in the NFL if Im not mistaken

    • 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.
