Punishment seemed suitable for the “crime”. AD tweets about a player. Not a huge deal. 

It is if it is a player not enrolled at his own school who is looking to transfer.  

Not good judgement at all.  

That's the recruiting coordinator's job, by the way.  :popcorneater:

I'm sure that's probably the only AD,coach or representative of a high school that ever went on social media and said something like that,maybe on coacht under an anonymous name  ? Good thing the regular fans on here are not looked at like the college boosters. Every team in the state would be on probation for life.

Probably not, but when one is involved with a high profile program it's not a smart thing to do. If it were Nowhere High, nobody would have even noticed. But it's one of the highest profile programs in the state. People are going to pay attention.

LOL. good one.

Oak Ridge has nothing to worry about me on CoachT. I will just do what I do best if the TSSAA has questions for my Internet activity...I will just play dumb. I do that naturally.

I have to go now, I'm recruiting the Knox, Fulton team. What? I did not say that. No hablo English.

Really a lot to do for nothing.  TSSAA basically gave them a slap on the wrist.  No post season bands or anything.  Just a few scrimmages, and a week later start date to practices.  Pays to recruit........lol 

It's a slap on the wrist because they have nothing on Oakland that proves they engaged in the recruitment of the player in question. Oakland's success recruits itself

    • 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.
