True. WC had a double digit lead, but RBS wouldn't give up. Flemming was very impressive for RBS. WC post C. Reed has been  out with an injury 2 or 3 games now and will be out until mid January. Her absence definitely hurts WC.

I really like Flemming!   I have since the first time I saw her play in middle school.  Getting Reed back will help WC but I think they just overlooked RBS in this game.   Reed wouldn't be the one guarding Flemming anyway.  And WC has plenty of posts.   This is where I usually post my annual "Why does WC schedule itself with the weakest bracket every single year" post  but by now its just normal to me so I won't mention it.  :lol:

Of course Reed wouldn't guard Flemming, but Reed on the court = more points for WC. If you host a Christmas tourney it would be rather dumb to schedule yourself against the best team in the tournament in the opening round. Duh! It's what host teams do.

They didn't have problems scoring points.  They had problems stopping the other team from scoring.   If Reed was back,  Powers wouldn't have had 35.   I doubt they would have scored more than 74 pts regardless.   As for the host, they didn't just give themselves an easy opening round.  They put best 3 opponents in the opposite bracket.  If your goal is to book some guaranteed wins and maybe a trophy then mission accomplished.  If you goal is to be better at the end of the tournament then you likely achieved nothing.   Duh...

Cookeville wouldn't put WC in their bracket if they hosted a tournament and they certainly wouldn't play WC first. We played a solid RBS team last night and if we beat Baylor tonight we'll play either a solid York team or a VERY solid Souh Gibson team. Hopefully they're all guaranteed wins.

Its kinda like going to cookeville and having to deal with their scorekeepers and clock people. They cant count nor keep time.

Most Host Teams are going to try to schedule in their favor in order to make the finals.  Nothing new there.  Still going to have to play the best team from other side of the bracket in order to win tournament.  

I didn’t say it didn’t happen.  They should get a decent matchup in Final.  But we are talking about a state champion caliber team.  I wasn’t saying anything negative towards the team.  They are very good.  My point is what do they get out of those games?  Let’s be real they better have higher goals than playing for a Franks trophy!  They should be playing the best competition to get them ready for the journey ahead.   Moving on….let’s see how this plays out.

    • 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.
