LC travels to Humboldt Friday night to play the Vikings. LC struggled on the offensive side of the ball against Dresden. Humboldt is supposed to be improved. The Vikings have athletes. I believe the Falcons clean up the penalties this week and gets the offense on track. LC wins this one by 3 to 4 tds. What is everyone else's take on this game.

They lost 33-0 to halls and 36-12 to west Carroll. The 12 they scored on west Carroll was after the mercy rule went into effect. They have a forfeit win over Memphis East so technically they are 1-2. But make no mistake, they are horrible. If a slightly better than horrible halls team beat them 33-0 you should drill them. Unless LC isn’t as good as we all think......

The halftime score was 22-6 in favor of West Carroll...

All jokes aside, Humboldt is still bad, and until they find the right administration staff and the right head coach, this team will not compete with Lake County for region championships, play Lake County or Freedom Prep in the Quarterfinals, and hopefully play Huntingdon each year on Black Friday. That should be the expectation for Humboldt year in and year out. But first, they got to kick extra points.

BPM Lake County is a young squad and have alot of things to clean up on offense. I feel like the Falcons will get better every week. Humboldt could be a gold mine for the right coach.

People say that but I just don’t believe it about the gold mine part. In 1996 Humboldt played Marion Co in the 3A title game in the old 5 class days. They had over 600 students. Now they barely have a third of that. All the students have gone to South Gibson, Crockett Co and Jackson Privates. And that’s where the football players are.

I believe you. I guess I heard wrong.

The ones that are left there don’t want to play football. The ones that do go somewhere else. They are focused on basketball.  
if you guys don’t beat them you have big problems

Yes I know that they lost alot of kids. Their enrollment is about like ours. They have excellent athletes playing basketball. So I figured they have more like that in the hallways.

In the early 2000’s up till about 2014 I’d say it would be a gold mine, but since they got rid of Dan Bland the ship has sunk big time. The bad one recent class that had athletes, but nothing was ever done with them

    • 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.
