Why cant he get his teams to thr State tourny? I do know that he continues to play a weak schedule, and does run up the score on teams.

He is not a terrible coach, but I think it is fair to say that he does not out scheme our out coach anyone.

This is nothing personal. I like Coach Tucker. He has given everything to his hometown. He is a good guy. But Tellico will never make it to the State tourney as long as he is head coach. It hurts to say it, but it is the truth.

 I met him once really good guy. He needs a playmaker. I watched some film on them. Got a lot of solid players. He is missing a playmaker.

You cannot play a cupcake schedule and hope to win a meaningful playoff game. He only plays teams he can beat year in and year out. That’s why none of the rest of us that keep up with high school girls basketball, truly believe TP is a threat. I know there are some good athletes in that area because I remember when Tellico Plains came to Jackson County I believe it was 2000 or 2001 and they rimmed out a three-pointer to beat us at the end of the game. Jackson County went on to win the AA state championship 4 years in a row so I know there’s some good players down there.

I think so but does it really matter at this point. If they couldn’t compete in A, there is really no chance with the teams in AA with the quality teams they will see night in and night out.

Talking to a friend from east tn haven't they lost some really good players the last few years. I think from what I've been told they have decent group. Meigs will be down. Chattanooga region is really weak. However with there cupcake schedule last few years how developed are there upperclassmen.

The new district

McMinn central. I think they will win the district and the region and probably make it to state.

Meigs. They will be down, but not has far has people think. They have some good young players that were good in middle school and they are all playing summer ball.

Tellico they have some talent but not what everyone thinks. But they will sill complete in the district and region.

Kingston. They could be the dark horse in the district, they played a lot of freshman last season  and competed. They should be better this year.

Sweetwater. Down 

Loudon. The same 

Early prediction 

1. McMinn Central

2. Meigs 

3. Kingston

4. Tellico 

5. Sweetwater

6. Loudon

I think 2-4 is a coin toss.

    • 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. 
    • No my fight, but ... if they were already college-caliber prior to transferring to BHS, and they already had FBS interest, and they end up at an FBS school, how did Bearden do anything for them?
