Thats what Im hearing. No games for the Bucs tomorrow night, and probably next week too.

I'm assuming it's the stupid, stupid contact tracing protocol? What a disastrous policy this has been, both for schools and football teams! It's the ultimate overreaction, especially when kids are not at risk from dying whatsoever and most are asymptomatic or having very mild symptoms. If you're sick and test positive, stay home and rest until you get better. Everyone else should be living life and playing ball! It's simple stuff. Our decision-makers are struggling!

From Twiiter:

 

BHS family, Out of an abundance of caution for the health and safety of our student athletes, we have suspended football activities for the next two weeks due to recent Covid19 positive test results and associated close contacts that are also team members. Homecoming will be 10/2

It's been like this all over the state! A few positive tests and they shut it down. I think it's likely TSSAA protocol with this contact tracing nonsense. However, with the flu, we send the sick people home and everyone else continues life/sports...and the flu is much more crippling to kids, be it sick level and/or death. This is unbelievable overreaction! All these teams could continue playing without those that test positive in almost every situation...since it is typically only a few infections per team. Again, this may forever change the flu protocols as well. If not, this has been a complete scam!

It's definitely not TSSAA protocol but school and school board based.  Elizabethton had 3 starting OL last week that didn't play because of having close contact with someone that tested positive but didn't stop their game against Daniel Boone

Yes, heard this was a county/school board decision.

No one - literally no one - should be surprised by their team getting shut down. Would imagine their other fall sports will soon follow and perhaps even in-person school, All you had to do was look at their student section (and Hendersonville's) last Friday. Packed in like sardines and ZERO masks. What an absolute failure of administrative leadership at both schools.

 

Good to see SportsGuy22 still in his denial phase. Some people never learn.

Denial phase of what?! Kids are not at risk of dying or even getting that sick. Please. How’s the flu response going to be for the future?! It’s way worse for kids. Shutdowns? Contact tracing? Quarantines?

    • 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.
