Well Cat we were there, thought it was gonna end there again but it didn't and we will be over to POW Friday nite. Long as the Cats are playing we 'll be there! But man it's gonna be cold Friday night! Better wrap up! Kinda like when tackling in football, Ya Gotta Wrap Em Up! haha

Some of these whiners were the same ones saying we'd be lucky to go 5-5 earlier in the season and now where are we .. in the 3rd round of the playoffs. A bunch of teams will be sitting at home Friday night. We could sure have better fan support at the games but I'll take the ones that go and make noise over that other bunching  any day!

If the wildcats are going to move any farther, we have to work more than one qb.  Four turnovers and could have been a fifth doesn’t cut it for a qb in the playoffs. It’s time to get other guys ready if that happens again. They subbed out all year when things went bad, we should have lost that game and we had no backup plan. We have to have options, Powell will not let us back in the game like McMinn did. I’ll just leave this post up to get roasted if I’m wrong. 

I'm not sure that I agree with you at all about playing two QBs. I can't think of any team that does that and I'm not sure why we would even consider it

I'm pretty sure after 10 games, we were 5-5, so what's your point? I'm glad we are in round three, it sure beats the alternative, but we've had a very easy road to round three. Let's beat Powell...that will be a big win!

I meant we should have had more than one ready. Any player that has four turnovers in a game shouldn’t finish the game for sure. That’s just football. The coach proved he couldn’t coach players up for sure tonight though. We had four-maybe five college guys on offense aline and yet we couldn’t score points. Maybe it’s not the players at all maybe it was the coaching. That’s why the other schools moved him so quickly. The old school playbook doesn’t work when it’s one dimensional offense.

Four maybe five college guys on oline?  Are you on crack?  We have zero college guys on oline!  Ha ha.  We are literally down to the only ones left to line up on the line.  No offense to the young men,  but they couldn't block me, SS, Nole, and Walmart bag guy!  Please, get a clue!

Haha, in defense of rwrbigcat, I think that’s a typo on his part. I think he meant we had four college guys on offense alone, instead of aline or oline, lol. I don’t even think we had that, though, but that’s just me. I do think we had some lower level guys like Johnson and Hundley, but that’s about it. #13 while I love the kid, he’s not a big time college prospect, in my opinion. I personally don’t see him as a 4 star, but maybe I’m wrong. Thanks for the laugh at the end, though, although I do think bag guy could maybe get through for a sack or 2 if we were running a ‘46’ defense, Buddy Ryan style.

    • 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.
