Have to agree (as much as I don’t wanna), but if we can limit stupid turnovers and penalties I think OR can keep it close. 

You guys have some good athletes and if you can eliminate the mistakes that killed you against the Devils you might just keep it close.

Come on man... You're supposed to let the D-B guy (me) make the thread since we're the home team. 

For that I'm going to have you bring me Big Ed's next week. I don't care if it is cold by the time you get here. Lol

Dude, I’ll do it. Don’t put it past me. That brown paper bag will be greasy as $&@$ by the time I get to Kangsport.

Common opponent is Greeneville. 

Greeneville beat us by 1. 

Greeneville beat Oak Ridge by a bunch. 

Now Waco if D-B might overlook someone, it may be the Cats based on what I just said. 

Yeah you’re right. Greeneville got the best of us, no doubt, but that score is a tad deceptive, in my opinion. In my opinion they’re probably more like 3 TD’s better than us.

DB doesn't overlook anybody. They take every game seriously under the current coaching staff. They've had Oak Ridges' number for years just like Science Hill and Greeneville have had DB's. I'm interested to see how the defense does with the change away from 4-2-5 though.

    • 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.
