Monte Hale and Joyce got us picked to lose by 6-10 pts... I hope we double that in a win..

 

They are going to continue to get smoked every game if the players keep quitting during the game. Lack of effort on blocking and tackling. They literally get sealed and scored on tosses every game. And the offense getting behind the sticks does not help at all.

I don't believe that the players quit. If you run this type of offense then you must have a 2 deep rotation on defense that is solid. Defense was exhausted in the 3rd quarter. Never rotated in back ups.  Defense played played well in the first quarter when rested.  HC needs to recognize this and slow down when needed. Also, losing 3 onside kicks and not converting fourth downs put the Defense in a bad spot multiple times.

That also, I still think the youth factor is playing its part but some of the touchdowns I’ve seen given up is not fatigue it’s them not even trying. Hard to go into your depth when kids are acting up and not paying attention also

So here is the skinny... Blackman returned 3 players on either side of the ball that payed a down of varsity football prior to this year.  Couple that with 14 new coaches, and a pretty tough schedule, it was going to be a hard go of things this year regardless who was coaching. I have been in the building, seen the by in at the top down from administration,(how else would you explain the number of coaches that are inside the building. (on staff as teachers)  Realistically you have 2 years to see a vast improved Blackman team . I like everybody else want it right now. But after watching for 15 seasons I also knew this was not going to be a quick fix, even after the high hopes the Brentwood game set. They will win a few games this year and be ok by end of the year, and with the strength and conditioning being lead by Coach Beasley They will be a much stronger physical team come next year. For the folks who want to throw fits because the defense was "Put in a bad position " by not punting, Lets be honest ,.... they couldn't make stops when they needed to, or the other team would not have out scored them.  You want championship season... put in championship work and you'll be fine.  Anybody can support a team when they are winning, be a real fan.

I personally loved when they had the weight room with the strobe lights etc.  Seemed like a great way to get stronger.

    • Deja vu all over again, 7 yrs apart. SMDH Does anybody talk to each other?
    • OK, well, that’s because two quarterbacks can’t start. That’s football 101. The main quarterback won the starting job, so he was on varsity, and the Seymour transfer did not win the starting job. He played some varsity. He was mainly junior varsity, and he balled out when healthy, so for the starting quarterback who’s been starting varsity since his freshman year, if you have any form of proof that he’s gotten worse, somehow, whether that means stats or whatnot, please feel free to share.
    • 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.
