SP from the East and I sure wouldn't bet against LC from the west.

We are always in the mix somehow, but as of late that Semi-final round has been our Achilles heel, called Greenback.  We might have 14 or so juniors returning that should help.  Just have some key spots where someone needs to step up.

What’s SP got coming back?

LC loses a bunch but they got some athletes coming back. I’m gonna say the Puckett youngun is a shoein for Mr Football consideration. They probably a semifinalist favorite. Huntingdon/McEwen will battle it out in R6 and R5 will be as up in the air as this season with probably nod to Fayetteville. As Waker stated Huntingdon got some big ol boys coming up and we always find running backs. If we can get the QB position up to speed we will be alright I think. I think the Bradley kid will be alright with work. Awesome freshman class coming up and another Warbritton in the pipeline in 2021.

I'd wait until the start of 2020 to ask this question. Too many good athletes and "stars" moving schools every year now, from the East to the West. I'll make my predictions around August 2020. 

TSSAA gonna have to get a handle on all the transfers. Unfortunately that’s the society we live in today. People want everything to be like travel ball where you can just pick up and leave if you don’t like the team your on.

SP loses some but has some coming back.  Several running backs will be back.  We will have to see how the QB recovers.  Key will be some linemen on both sides as well as Tipton and the receiver Hubbard.  People better keep an eye on Gordy the next couple or 3 years.

Agree. I say unless it’s a move of 100 miles the student athlete needs to sit a year.

Dude I really hope you are not referring to LC? Who in their right mind would move to the 11th poorest county in the NATION...to win football? Yea not here! As I stated we had 1 in Dyersburg 1 in Obion Co and 1 at Dyer co that could have really helped LC. our gain to loss ratio in the past 15 years is 1 to 50! Thompson Masons folks bought a house out by the lake because they liked the territory! Burkett I will remind you both his parents are LC alum and recently separated and both moved back to LC! I’m not even gonna argue we were LOADED before they added though! Ain’t nobody moving to LC to win football games

Chill out shock. I’m not specifically calling out LC. In your reply you said yourself it’s a problem however with all the kids that left LC for other towns. I’m saying put a rule in place that is easy to understand and uniform in application. Put a stop to all the travel ball families of the world.

    • 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.
