CORRECT me if I am wrong, didn't the best Wildcat of all time die last week? And we didn't say a thing about it. SMH. Prayers out to Jackie Pope!!!RWR!!!

Am I correct or not?

I didn't say anything about it because I didn't even know it. Where did you see this? He's been out of sight for so long that I haven't heard anything about him in years. That's sad news for sure and yes, he was one of the all time greats.

I first read it on Facebook and then on the Oak Ridger.com website. All of our childhood favorite Wildcats are getting old and we may lose more. Very sad.

Another issue we've not addressed concerns Johnny Stewart

https://www.gofundme.com/f/we-are-oak-ridge

I have been very lazy lately. I donated to Johnny last week but failed to alert this Board on the need to donate. My favorite thing Johnny did was give an interview as a Senior with David Clary after a Monday night Freshmen game. When asked what he was looking forward to Johnny said watching  Frosh QB M. Gibbons run up and down Blankinship on Friday nights. That fired me up and gave me hope that OR was in good hands. Sure enough Johnny was right since those Freshmen made it to State.

Get well soon and our Wildcat prayers go out to you Johnny!

CINCINNATI BENGALS TEE HIGGINS WENT CRAZY IN MY HELLCAT!.

You will see a car salesman bringing a Hellcat to Tee's home in Cincy for a test drive. You will also see the Benz Tee is getting rid of. This short tape is some of the rarest Tee Behinds the Scene footage I have ever scene.

BE WARNED...the young car salesman uses a lot of foul language but Tee stays clean.. The  ending is sort of funny Tee is not able to get a Uber ride so the salesman has to drive Tee to the airport. Tee is catching a flight to Arizona for some training.

Anybody have any info on how the QB battle is going? Payton Sharpe tweeted he has been invited to a camp at the Univ. of Wisconsin. Tarwater is probably working hard too.

This week it was tweeted out the leaders in weight lifting for the winter. I did not recognize most of the players but hope they earn playing time.

Lastly, on a recent Covering the Bases Baseball Show hosted by the Voice, Mitchell Gibbons mention we would have a great player join the team. Was he kidding or do we have a new player?

I heard Tarwater won QB MVP of some small camp.I think they said the camp was even at Oak Ridge but Ill ask again.And unless something changes Oak Ridge has a really good player coming for next yr.Wildcat fans will be happy and should recognize the name.

From what I understand, one of West’s running backs has transferred to the Cats. If it stays that way, it’s a huge pickup as far as depth is concerned. Also, I hear they’re looking at playing Jackson both ways. From what I hear, possibly linebacker? I could see him being a great one, if so.

I didnt know if I should say his name or not yet but West already pulled him from the roster on Hudl.He should be a perfect complement to KJ and be a great duo.We should be loaded at RB because I love some of our younger guys 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.
