Still confused by the lack of info on scholarship offers found for the Risner kid so I checked out social media and found several highlight clips.  My takes? Tall, big arm, accurate based on %completion and quick release.  All very good things.  He also has some pretty decent targets to get the ball to.  Other observations.  Pocket passer with very few rollouts that I saw.  Some but not many.  If he had good mobility then the highlights would have shown that I would assume.  So not overly mobile.  Yall don't run the ol Statue of Liberty play do you?

QB for Ravenwood that we beat earlier this year had a very strong arm and good accuracy.  Maybe not as good as ya'lls but still very good.  He also had the ability to tuck and run with great speed and balance.  As a pure athlete, he was superior to anyone we have seen this year.  A flick of the wrist and he could hit a 5 yard out from the other side of the field.  4 star committed to MS State.  Yes we haven't faced Risner but we have faced a few very good qbs this season already.

I guess I will listen to it on the radio unless a quality tv broadcast is planned.  Gonna be a fun matchup with these two teams.  I expect a lot of scoring from both sides but see Oakland pulling away in the second half.  Go Pats.

It will be close at the half, but Oakland will pull away in the second half. For once it appears that Blackman has more star athletes than Oakland, but in the end coaching will win the game.

Sure it met my expectations.   Thanks!  Really just looking for some opposition to banter back and forth with.   All in fun.   I think both the Oakland and Blackman fans have been looking forward

Blackman has several stars in skill positions. Oakland has very good players in all positions, defense, offense and special teams. Very good players, depth in all positions, excellent coaching wins over a few stars every time. The game will be over by the end of the third quarter. What happens at the freshman level will happen at the varsity level.

Well both Blackman and Oakland players from 8th grade up to 10th right now are pretty good actually.

 That was a game changer also Chris Parsons could run the ball, Jack probably can see the field a little better because he’s like 6’6 but he doesn’t have the speed to just take off. Again I’ll say the trenches will matter this season and the next ones also.

Do you think not having Kade Hewitt (Starting QB for Oakland) behind center will have any impact. I think it changes a few things simply due to timing and game reps

I'm not buying into the Hewitt injury. I know he was in a boot with an achilles strain, but with the bye week, I would not buy into him not playing until you see him show up, not dressed out.  If it does, I would expect some impact - he is the commander of the offense. Would like to hear the Oakland folks opinion.

If Hewitt doesn't play then yes it would have a big impact I would think.  His arm is better than most realize and his ability to run the ball is a big part of the offense this year.  At 6'2" and 235lbs and very athletic, he is very hard to bring down.  I haven't heard anything about him being injured but that means nothing since I'm not associated with the program or school in any way whatsoever other than being a Fri. night volunteer.  

I think this game will be a lot closer if he isn't playing and could swing either way.  Just don't know enough about the backup really but I trust the coaches to put together a plan if needed.  Defense is going to have to help pull up the slack if he doesn't play.

You are reaching for hope of him not playing..... like my dad always said "you can hope in one hand and crap in the other and see which one fills up faster". The biggest difference between Oakland and Blackman is that Oakland has a great PROGRAM every year - Blackman has a great team this year. They will adjust accordingly should their QB not play.

I was told he had not been practicing and was still in a boot from the Achilles injury he sustained in the Siegel game.  Call it "reaching for hope" or "crapping in your hand".... simple question was to titan27 if that is the truth  and he can't play if he felt like that would have an impact?  Whether it changes the outcome  game or not, if he doesn't play it will impact the game. Maybe a lot- or a little-  but if he plays with an Achilles injury that is not completely healed, then that would be total stupidity. That very well could lead to a complete tear, or the type of damage that would sit him for the rest of the year or diminish his playing ability for good.

"But if he plays with an Achilles injury that is not completely healed, then that would be total stupidity.

Whether he plays or not will not change who wins this game. That is what I meant by if he doesn't play Oakland will adjust accordingly because of the state of their program.

      Who vandalized Maryville's Football Field?

      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.
