Obviously you haven’t watched OR play a single snap this year, and if you have you didn’t pay much attention. Not being a smartA, but anybody that has watched us should automatically know the answers to your questions without even asking them. I’ll just put it this way - the game will be over by the 3rd quarter, if not earlier. That’s unless the majority of Greeneville’s team fails to show up by some act of God. (Literally speaking ) I hate to be so blunt, but it’s just the hard reality of the state of our football program right now when we play stellar competition.

Do you mind if I steal the quote above and paste into the next Boone thread?    I'll change OR to Boone and Greeneville to whoever we are playing.          Feeling your pain bro, all the way up here in Gray TN.....

Never thought I would say this about Oak Ridge but the goal is not to have a running clock by halftime.Some other goals might be one first down a qtr would be really nice.Greenville could bring the freshman team Dline and still have advantage upfront.I would guess it would be hard to find many teams with a better trio of RBs and WR Oak Ridge has but it doesnt  even matter.Heyward has proved u just have to throw it his way and he will make plays and we cant even do that.All 3 of our RBs can do big things if we can block long enough for them to get past line of scrimmage but we cant do that.I would guess 9/10 times our RBs are hit before they can take 2 steps.You just cant believe it until you see it

I just don't understand the issues with Oak Ridge. I understand that the offensive line struggles but I just don't accept that as an excuse. There are things you can do offensively to help the offensive line and still get positive yards. This is honestly just so puzzling to me.

    • 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.
