a good football coach who’s already in the county who would be a great hire is former Sycamore head coach Gary Halstead.  

If the hire is Gary Halstead then Cheatham County just made an excellent hire.  Coach Halstead won 38 games in 7 seasons as head coach at Sycamore High School and they reached the Quarterfinals in 2006 and the Second Round in 2008.

Glad we finally got a good coach.  Wenning and Boyd made a good hire.

Any news on a staff yet?

I'm very sure that Coach Halstead will call the plays.  He's been an OC since 1998 and even held that title while he was the head coach at Sycamore from '04-'10.  I believe I know who the DC is going to be as well.  A good football coach with lots of years experience as a head coach and a DC.  The Cubs will be well coached and they'll have some hard working young men who will played with tremendous effort and great intensity.  I look for them to be back in the playoff picture at the end of this upcoming season.

Halstead needs to start recruiting the hallways, some of the better athletes don’t even play football. A few on basketball and baseball team that would be good football players. I would also think about keeping Coach Hobbs, (whether you like him or not,) personally I don’t know him but he does a fantastic job of involving the community. Best I’ve seen at that school.

You're right.  Jeff does a great job at promoting the student-athletes at CCCHS.  Every program needs a guy who will go all out to try to get the kids to the next level.  I also think that hiring Jon Offutt to come on staff and run the defense was an excellent hire.  Between Gary Halstead calling the offense and Jon Offutt calling the defense the Cubs will have 25-30 years of experience directing both sides of the football in 2020.  Another guy that has coached at Cheatham County (and at Sycamore with Halstead) before is Wes Proctor.  He was a great high school player and is a great coach.  I'd imagine he could also be a candidate to coach on the Cubs staff next season.

    • 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.
