A good coach will never let a team just quit.  I don't know the guys at Oneida but their body of work says they need to do better.  I'm tickled to have Zac.  Our boys have seen some tough times this year but they have a great attitude. 

Attitude, Motivation, and Good Coaching they RESPECT and Kids that would Run thru a brick wall for the HC is the Most Important key to success IF you have a little talent and size. Hampton is a great example this year. Not nearly the biggest, strongest, fastest, but the Love their Coach and Community and it shows on the field.

I think we probably agree on most to be honest. Last year they were physical. They absolutely manhandled South Greene, who was the #1 seed. On both sides of the ball. Absolute domination in the trenches. This year they are soft. I don't understand exactly why. I think half is coaching (no OL/DL), and the other half is attitude. They play finesse now which as you know is not what Oneida is and not what TL built. 

They have like 15 starting seniors. Athletic QB, athletic skill guys. Any team would love to have all that. But for some reason it doesn't translate.

They lack toughness. Kids miss practice all the time, games all the time...over the most minor bumps and bruises. 

Offense is very predictable. Rockwood was calling out plays before they happened. They just weren't disciplined enough on defense to stop it, lol. 

Lastly, there is no accountability. And that starts at the top. And IMO, that's their biggest problem. 

Have to agree on all points there. The current regime has definitely made significant changes to the program on and off the field.

Agree here as well.

They would have ended up losing anyway I think. The only thing stopping Rockwood's offense that night was dumb play calls and penalties. Oneida certainly wasn't. Don't forget, RW scored twice after that and could've added a third late if they wanted to. Oneida could barely complete a pass after that. 

I don’t disagree that we may have lost anyway but I actually posted about 2 plays after that fumble how every Oneida players head dropped and shoulders slumped after that happened. We were in a battle up to that point but we absolutely gave up after that. That was the turning point of that game but I don’t feel the season. I think the tracks had been greased weeks earlier and the downhill slide was well underway by then.

I would tend to agree. The grease started gettin thick on the tracks after that embarrassing performance at Greenback. We said it and got called out for it but seems we may know a little.

Win or lose, Everyone from Hampton should be extremely proud of what this TEAM has accomplished this season. Losing 10 starters and several all state players, who would have thought this Team would be able to do the things they have, Have to say I had my doubts and wasn't sure they'd win over 4 or 5 games, Coaches have done a great job but they have had dedicated kids who show up every day to get better. Who knows where it ends but we should all be very proud of the whole program from top to bottom.

Amen.. They have become a team, a cohesive unit that plays for one another. I am also very proud of them and look forward to see how far they can take it. I'm proud of all involved in the program.

    • 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.
