York only with room for 85 visiting fans Friday?

It's pretty dirty they did that. 

They know the Sequatchie fan base travels extremely well.  That amount of tickets isn't going to cover half the parents of the players much less when you add in parents of cheerleaders and regular fans.

The game should have been moved to Dunlap and if on the schedule next year Sequatchie then could have traveled to Jamestown.

It's not dirty, It's COVID rules.... Trust me... nothing more that York would want than a full house... And why in the world would York give up a home game just to placate the visiting school?? They've already lost one home game this year due to field conditions.

York and Sequatchie won’t even play next year so moving the game to trade years isn’t even an option. I’m sure York hates the limited seating as much as anyone

And some are forced to by lawyers.  Sure wished there could have been more fans there last night for the second time this year a team showed up and played football. The ones that didn’t get in missed a dominating performance. Now to hope that team shows up next week as we travel to Livingston.

There were plenty of tickets available at the gate. Sequatchie could have brought as many fans as they wanted. Every away game I've gone to I bought my ticket at the gate. Nonsense.

According to our AD when he called to try and get more tickets.  He was told they would only have around 50-75 tickets available for sale at the gate beginning at 5PM.    People weren't going to take the chance to drive two hours and maybe be able to get in.

I myself didn't get a ticket either and this was the first Sequatchie Co. game I have missed in 25 years (1995 Playoff game in Greenville, TN to be exact)

Better than some places we’ve played this where we were told show up at the gate not a snowballs chance in hades of getting in if your from the visiting team.

What was witnessed tonight with the YAI football team and program has to be an all time low.  Extremely undisciplined football with a ton of personal fouls and unsportsmanlike penalties.  Football is a contact physical sport but the performance shown by the Dragon Football team was very uncalled for in many different ways.  The administration at York needs to step in quickly before it gets majorly out of hand.

you started this thread to trash York and then run.  What do you think about their play the last 3 weeks?  I saw them play this past Friday against Sequatchie and they looked pretty good to me.  From what I understand they had Upperman on the ropes as well.

    • 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.
