Timmy50, How far in the past are we talking, because it sure didnt happen this season. We have had one loss (Ezell) and our Defensive coordinator took responsiblity for that. Coach Akins took our team from that game and made them into the team you know today, AT LEAST one of the top 2 teams in the state. There was no choking involved.

 

Oh, just so you all know, when I said he was the best, I was just talking about 1-A. I dont know enough about other division's coaches to place Coach Akins over them.

Formercav,

 

I'll agree on Pratt. Our coach told us that the school was about to get rid of the football program till Pratt came in.In just a few years he has built a powerhouse.By the Way...our fieldhouse is about 3times the size of Crockett Co. (just thought i'd let you know) B)

 

 

IT'S JUST THE FACTS!!!

Like FHSTE84 i'm biased bc i played for him but he has to get mentioned. Franklin has always had talent but he molded us into a great team with his discipline. He is a great guy and loves the game of football. If I had to nominate some others from 5A I'd say Ron Crawford from Brentwood and a mention to Greg Gregory.

Coach Greg Gregory of Centennial High School deserves some recognition for a successful season at a program that in the past has been known as a loser. I played for Coach Gregory for 3 years before I moved to Arizona my senior year and the lessons I learned from him will stick with me for a lifetime. Coach Gregory teaches his players the value of character, hardwork, and discipline both on the playing field and beyond it. A 7-4 record is a vast improvement upon the previous 2-8, 3-7, and 2-8 seasons. Not to mention that CHS is not blessed with the greatest support and talent base. What he and his staff have done and will continue to do is truly amazing. Oh yeah the coaches from Franklin High and Brentwood High aren't so bad either.

    • 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.
