DII-AA (where is Booger?)

Well... What do we have this year?

 

In the East, looks like Boyd Buchanan is back in business after week one. CAK? I know Kings is a small school.  Webb? Grace?

In the West, Lausanne has another really good back I hear? ECS?

In the Middle... How many points will LA put on Indy tonight because Dilfer thinks the AP rankings matter? How many people will BGA, DA, and Goodpasture surprise this year? CPA has another crazy tough schedule this year which hopefully will be fun to watch unfold.

Good luck to all and prayers that we’ll have as normal of a season that we can.

Is going to speak up about the Dilfer video trending right now?  There is no situation where it’s ok to put your hands on a student.  
 

The conversation would have some posters beating their chests saying it was a good thing and the fact people think he went too far show how “soft” we have become... others would say you should see how their HS coach treated them... others would say if it were their child, they would have done the same to Dilfer afterward... and others would say he should be fired... 

I’m sure he regrets what happened. He has apologized. I can’t decide if this viral video hurts or helps his recruiting...

There is no way Dilfer actually wrote that apology. That was 100% damage control by someone within the Lipscomb walls.

The real question is how long does Trent Dilfer continue to coach at DL.  I was hearing the snide comments as early as this time last season about how certain kids were not getting playing time and they had paid full tuition.  That most of the playing time was going to kids that were receiving financial aid.

I think Dilfer will stay put for a few years.  The rest of your comment is spot on for most private schools.  "Little Timmy" comes from a family that has been in the school for years or family donates.  At that point, talent evaluation goes out the window and is replaced by school contribution.  It is sad but true, just like it is the truth that Timmy wouldn't get playing time if he was anyone else.

Certainly nothing new as I have heard that from friends that had kids at BA, BGA, etc for years.  It's that fine line of wanting to win as long as "the talent" does not take my child's spot.

LOL - that’s pretty much the way it is at most good private football powerhouses…

    • And can you tell me who those two quarterbacks were, and every kid that was put into college from Bearden is a Bearden kid? It’s kind of why they graduated from Bearden.   and I would definitely not consider ETSU “waste”…
    • Most of this is complete gibberish. But the one part I could decipher is putting kids in college. This coaching staff hasn’t put a single Bearden kid in college. They completed wasted one of the best WRs in East TN and have ruined two talented QBs. All because they’re in over their heads. 
    • Well, I’d hope the new coaching staff thinks they are all that because they can always walk around the school, anytime they want, thinking that, especially for what they’ve done for the student athletes and the players, putting more kids in college in his first season than the old coaching staff did in numerous years combined, but we will just sweep over that because I know you don’t like facts. But trust me, nobody wanted Mr. Big britches, made the star player switch to quarterback, which is ultimately the reason he ended up transferring to play the position. He loved, but unfortunately, had to be at another school because Mr. Big Britches doesn’t like when a teenager knows more than him, but can’t expect much coming from a guy who used all class throwing pencils up into the ceiling and making fun of football kids who were failing class right to their face, and in front of numerous students, even projecting on the board most of the time.
    • After that first paragraph, I can see why you’re a TA and not a teacher. Have you made the move from South Knoxville to Bearden yet?    Maybe he left because he is an actual teacher and coach, and didn’t want to be associated with a group of foul mouthed middle school coaches who like to pretend they’re big time. 
    • Yeah and the coach is gone. Whole bizarre situation here. We played them a couple of times at MTSU last few years. She was a player for sure.
