Peabody vs McKenzie (West Semi Finals)


PeabodyPride

Recommended Posts

I was once told I am a homer. I was told that I did not give objective opinions.  I got a call the other night by a fellow who said he was proud of me putting down the Tide coaches and telling the truth about the game.  I said what in the heck are you talking about?  He said,  and quote, "The coaches made a mistake and they would not admit it.  But if he was listening closer, he would have heard my reply to that.  I won't deny saying that and I am sure it was a mistake on my part but I do remember saying immediately after that statement that our staff would never blame anyone but themselves even though they did not warrant it.  Do coaches make mistakes, absolutely, but so do fans.  How is it possible for anyone in Tide country to criticize this current staff.  They are the hardest workers I've ever been around.  So, am I a homer? Yes.  And I am proud to be a Peabody guy.  I am and I always will be.  As long Coach Jacobs and his staff are around, this will be a successful program, even at 5-5.  4 Gold balls in 7 years.  We are so proud of this football programs and we salute our seniors for a job well done.  We have been blessed by the football gods and now its time to share the wealth.  Roll Tide!

That was a call in radio conversation.

It is on NFHS Network. It will cost you about $10 for 1 month subscription but to me it’s worth it if your area doesn’t broadcast the State Championships on cable.

10.99 a month NFHS , it’s not great a lot of the times, but is better than not seeing games at all.

Thank you

4 Titles in 7 years is some good work. Fans will be fans. Coaches obviously know what they are doing. I still think you guys had most talented overall team this year but ran into another dang good football team that was more hungry and played the better game that night. Outside of Alcoa or Maryville I’m not sure if anyone else in last 20 years has matched what you guys have done. How many starters are back each way next season?

The successful record that Peabody has defines the coaching staff and the players. Not one or two plays. I’d say they have an excellent coaching staff and the players should be very proud of everything they have accomplished! ROLL TIDE!!! (Unless they’re playing the Cardinals!:D)

Can’t replace Ganoway’s but sounds like you will have enough back to overcome them to make another run. West is definitely loaded again next year. Im just keeping it real

    • 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.
