I have not heard any rumors regarding Lipscomb trying to retract their request to move up to play in D2AAA but I can see how that would take place.  Is your statement true or just another rumor as several are floating around?  Strictly a hunch but you will see a mass exodus of Lipscomb football players at the end of the school year and a few may not return after the Christmas Holidays. With TD gone it will not be business as usual and is not what those athletes and their families  agreed to before enrolling.

Wouldn't it be too late to retract anyway? The TSSAA has already put together region/district schedules

Yes. They are stuck for 2 years.

And will get smacked around for the next 2 years. Dilfer did all of this to that school. From the way he acted, the way he treated other TN HS programs, his absurd ego and now moving them up to DII-AAA and heading out the door leaving them high and dry. The ones that will be hurt the most by all of this will be the LA lifers that will stay and play. All those 3 and 4 stars flying out the back door will suffer none of the consequences that are coming the next 2 years.

Have any players actually left the program yet or is all this just speculation?

I guess I'm just not understanding. I would think and maybe thinking is the problem. Witten comes in from Texas and according to media he is seen on campus. Was the money the final hammer or admin or both? Does anyone really know? It seems something intriguing $ wise had to be thrown out there for him to show up.

Sure they could but why would they?

and I’m not saying LA is a better program at all…but what would they have to gain?

IMO, if I were a junior I would return to Lipscomb and finish my career.  If I am currently a freshmen or sophomore I would entertain what other schools had to say until I know who the next head coach will be.  With TD gone to UAB you currently don’t have anyone on the Lipscomb staff that has the clout or connections to pick the phone up and help a player get recruited to the various schools.  The longer that this search continues without a head coach being named the more uncertainty and rumors will be circulating. If Mrs. Candice McQueen has decided to go Old School Lipscomb and hire a current member of the CofC this search could linger on into the Spring.  I personally feel that Lipscomb having a great team has been good for Tennessee football but for whatever reason there is something holding up the process of hiring a new football coach.

    • 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.
