Nope. 

You'll see my friend. It wasn't that long ago Maryville had 450 kids and now it has that many per grade. Half the school was built in 1938 that is still in use. Big talks about the high school twelve years ago that went nowhere. Maryville will not become a Hoover High School in order to save face with a good football team.

No disrespect BC but Denso owns the town of Maryville and the city leaders kiss their butt just like Alcoa kisses Arconic's. No one in Maryville wants to see Morganton Road get swallowed up by the city. My hunch is before it's all over in the future you'll see Maryville bust in half and there will be two schools instead of one. A lot of people will disagree with me but at the rate their building the high school could have 2,400 kids with just what I know is going to happen. The city knows that but don't want to break the bad news yet.

If William Blount HS is located in the City of Maryville, will it eventually become Maryville High school of rejects...or The Maryville jail? Asking for a friend.

As of Tuesday morning there are 0 considerations being considered for a new high school in the next 15 year time frame. Expansion plans for various schools or a new elementary or intermediate school, but no high school.

Side note - to build a new MHS would cost around $80M.

When it was all said and done, Everett High School was located inside the City of Maryville for years.

The land for Everett High School was donated by Maryville Mayor Sam Everett in 1922. He was instrumental in starting Maryville High School in 1913. I guess they needed a rival. He is also the reason ALCOA came to North Maryville in 1914.

They honored the Carpenters Middle boy's basketball team at a WB game recently. They were county champs, they had a 20-8 record, and ended up being a top 15 team in the state. I guess Maryville or Alcoa will have a really good boy's basketball team in the next few years.

Maryville and Alcoa have really good basketball teams now...

    • 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.
