I guess it's no mystery now.  Josh Jones is Bearden HC.  Wow. 

Bearden stepping up if JJ is the one and signs pointing to him. Big hire if they wanted to turn things around to keep kids at Bearden and also potentially bring in kids that can help them elevate.

Powell has the gold ball, they are happy about many things right now. They are on cruise control with Potts and Co. back next year.

Depends on who you ask, but I had hoped that Lowe (and Adam Seymore) would take back the offense. This certainly takes care of that!

Same here. I felt like JJ had a hard time adjusting his game plan when it didn’t work. Just kept pounding away at the same thing that wasn’t working (the deep ball for example). We’ve seen that several times the last couple seasons

Au contraire. It's always a good thing when assistants in a program are sought after as head coaches elsewhere. Means things are going well. 

And those who believe that Powell isn't going to continue at a very competitive level, you need to think again.

@LittleJerrySeinfeld are you happy with the hire? Should be good to have your son’s former all star coach running the show. Sorry about that OT loss to Farragut. Great game though!

Have you heard anything on how the announcement will be.

Well the so called step up will have to be proven on the football field. Will BHS get Baby Falcons, CAK, or the Powell flying circus. No HC experience at a 6A school is questionable at the least. Maybe there will be an assistant HC that knows the ropes that the principal has a relationship with or has confidence in. Bearden is a difficult place to reach those high expectations. Very high expectations but never doing what it takes to reach those expectations. Bearden parents/boosters that get involved in sports that don't get what they want out of a coach don't go to the principal that signed off on the HC hire, they go to central office to air their displeasures. Good luck to the new staff, they will need it.

Done deal.  Josh Jones is official per. 5StarPreps
