Per Stephen Hargis 

“Dalton (Ga.) High has called an afternoon press conference for today where they are expected to promote longtime assistant & defensive coordinator Kit Carpenter to HC. South Pittsburg’s Vic Grider was the other finalist but was told yesterday he was not the choice. ”

I'm sure that Coach Carpenter deserves the position, as long as he has been with the team. Great for him. Not sure if Vic is staying at SP, but it would be nice for us loyal alumni and fans of SP for so many years to know what's going on. Also the player's deserve to know who there going to be playing for.  If he's staying he needs to come out and say so, if not, lets move on. It's not something that needs to be kept under national security,

Vic will still resign I am hearing. You're right it would be beneficial to have some certainty for the kids.

Word from my son is Coach Grider is coming back next year. That was what he came home from wt training today saying. They all know who will be coach if he doesn’t stay. Wagner has been only coach doing all the workouts and kids love him. So time for the Grider haters to move on ..

I'm not a Grider hater. I hope he stays actually. I do know that there are some that want him to step down (especially after the state game) and there are some that have asked for Jones to come in. Just telling what I hear and I have no reason to doubt them.

Grider doesn't want to be there anyomore,with his personal situation he may have to stay longer than he wants.Grider has been asked to hire Jones but if they do Wagner is gone.You all have a soap opera going on down there NO DOUBT!And yes after the state game Grider knows his time is up by the way your fans have went after him.PP68 has the right info!!!

Wagoner is not the answer...plus he will up and leave after a few years. His Twitter profile picture he is still in his TC coaching polo. That is where he wants to be.

From the outside looking in I would say Wagoner was a great coach who was big on discipline.... something TC folks weren’t fond of!

    • 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.
