Lots of teams have had Positive test and no 14 day shut down.  Just depends on how loud you are about your findings.  The programs themselves are keeping that to themselves especially if they are having a good year!  Look close at the schools that haven not had any shut down or any words of COVID, they have suggested that their players go virtual.  Most only have 2-3 that actually play that are in school.

Yeah, I'm just stating the reason why they are quarantined, I'm sure you could get by with not reporting it as you have stated and run the risk of a lawsuit against the school, those rules are from tssaa. so that's who the issue needs to be addressed with.  You are correct about going virtual, imo that is the best option for sport teams, however what do you do with county rules that won't let virtual kids participate?  That isn't the case in DC but have heard that in counties close by that was the rule from those school districts.

Health Department has been granted too much power folks.    Make absolutely no sense to issue a 14 day MANDATORY quarantine!   We now have Rapid testing where the results can be known in 1 hour!

Simple solution here is to mandate Every player planning to participate in a game MUST produce two negative tests over a 72 hour period.   If that happens, no reason to prevent them from playing!  

Am I the only person in this state that can use just an ounce of common sense???

Common sense says that this is potentially a life threatening situation. If this was about weather, suspensions or just about anything else, than the situation could be different. But taking ANY CHANCE with young people's health or lives, is wrong. Attitudes like this is why Tennessee is in such terrible shape when it comes to this deadly virus. Two schools I follow closely in basketball couldn't go to the state this year because of the virus. One hadn't been in 34 years. But our young people's lives are far more important that a game.

Yeah, John, they could die from a drunk driver hitting them while heading to church on Sunday (actually better odds of that).   Maybe we should wrap them in a plastic bubble and just admire them from a far.

It's people like YOU sir that have driven teen suicide rates to reach an alltime high!  Keep preaching your fear!  The liberals are listening!

Have a nice day.

I don't believe it's that serious

    • 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.
