Too many things in this thread that are just inaccurate.  Principal and AD at schools weren't asked to falsify records.  Previous schools do not have to give the date of last participation unless asked.  Current school fills out the transfer form.  All incoming freshmen enrolled in the school are eligible.  All students zoned to the new school are eligible.  All other students may request a hardship that will either be approved or denied by the TSSAA.  The information contained in the hardship request is subject to the integrity of the persons filling it out.  The previous school should be involved by sending a letter stating that the move was not for athletic purposes (this could be subject to Director influence).  These rules apply to all sports, not just football.

Good Post…Lots of rumors and innuendos being put out there about LC that are just plain false.Jealousy lives freely in Sumner County.

Jealousy? Nah, it has nothing to do with that. It’s the fact that the County went overboard with LC. I know new schools will get the latest and greatest everything, and they should, but they took it to the extreme with LC on the County’s dime. All the while, all the other schools in the County have been handed scraps for years. Funding pulled, budgets cut, you name it. This is Dr. Phillips’s crown jewel, and he made sure the County spared no expense. It’s no coincidence that he is stepping down after this school year. And he just happens to be staying on in an advisory role until LCMS is completed. 
 

It is also the fact that they are letting the school get away with stuff that no other school in the County can. The softball coach has blatantly recruited a juggernaut, and everybody knows it. At least 2/3 of that roster is out of zone, and she gives private lessons to most of them. That’s an infraction.  That’s facts! Thing is Phillips will not let another school in the County turn in another school for infractions. Any complaint to the TSSAA will have to come from a school in another County. It will happen eventually, when they step on the wrong toes.

I hate it for the teams that are affected.  Phillips has had an agenda for quite awhile.

    • 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.
