Thought about it and will have to root for WC, Ms. Mondo is a 1979 graduate of WC and was a first year teacher at WC in the fall of 1983.  Bobby Newby was a great coach and Nunley Stadium was packed every home game.  One of the unique things they sold in the concession stand was hot Dr Pepper.

I graduated in 1984 and may have had your wife as a teacher or may have known her. The 1983 football season was the last playoff win for Warren County.  37 long years ago, we went to the quarterfinals with a talented team and great coach.  Yes, Nunley Stadium was packed and provided a great atmosphere and hot Dr. Pepper was a concession stand staple.  The '83 teams quarterfinal run was 3 years after the semifinal run. WC expected to win football games back then and demanded respect.  This years team may be more hungry for a playoff win, because they have heard all their lives about how long it has been. Plus, the Pioneer coaches have conveyed that very well to them. Good luck tonight Pioneers, we know your prepared and we will root you on just like we have for the last 37 years!

    • 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.
