Mine were there (not with the Written huddle) but said they saw them...I hear some schools haven't missed a beat during this time of "distancing".

Mine have been hitting the weights here and trying to stay in shape since this bull crap started...Getting up at 6:30 in the morning and slinging sheet metal for 8 each day may help em a bit too.

Copy from other thread...

Welp, just went over a few of the rules for upcoming practices...Only 9 players and one coach at a time; have to interchange footballs after every catch-n-throw; absolutely no contact until told; only allowed 50% of weight on bench & squat so a spotter isn't needed; blah blah blah.

10 kids get together in a city park or on a field to throw and run and someone with no life calls authorities and adminstrations and the powers bow of course.

I say shut it down country wide!! HS, college, pros. If they're not gonna allow these kids to be in shape to play such a physical sport, they don't need to be out there!  And getting rid of football is EXACTLY what these effeminate politicians have been wanting to do for years! Now they have their shot and not gonna think twice since they just learned they can wag their finger and Americans will go running and hide in their homes. SMH.

BUT! I think I'm tired of being treated like I'm in China or under someone liberal's thumb. And yes I said liberals because they're the  very ones pushing for this "control of the people"...to control our personal and religious lives. Trump has tried to open this up for weeks and keeps getting undue pressure from the demons that have now impacted our lives greatly. I go to Lowe's, Walmart, Ingles and they STAY packed! Why in the world is there an issue with church and living a normal life?  A lot of you know how to contact me; I reckon about all of us still pay taxes and have a say, no matter if they think we do or not! We need to begin NOW to make noise that will be heard in govt, our schools and the TSSAA...and demand our freedoms and the freedoms of our kids. This is beyond ridiculous.

Are we gonna fuss?  Or lock and load and do something about it!  Old king is willing to get his hands dirty but he can't do anything on his own.  They'll blow old king away or lock him up forever but there is strength in numbers!

Its the way to win.Its called cheating without cheating.If all the Champions didn't all flock to the same place, they wouldn't be Champions.  No different than other places, very few dominate teams win with just their own kids.

They have had those signs up for years. My son was on one when he was in eighth grade and he will be a senior this coming year. I would call it advertising more than recruiting.

    • 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.
