Luckily for this next murvil team, HS football has turned into a playoff sport. No doubt that’s it’s better to play at home. Even with the crazy official assignments, home cookin is a real thing. Nevertheless, a ten game season should provide some experience for the new guys. They shouldn’t be rookies at that point. It’s always fun to see how a new team develops. I hear a kid from IMG is moving in. Maybe he can help.

Yes,.....and I'm sure he will!

The only thing I hate about high school football is that there isn't anyone reporting on what's happening in team news during the off season such as transfers, interviews with coaches, when spring practices are and much more. Most things we hear are something third hand through the grapevine. If it were college football those fans are filled with information overload. There seems to be a big void there for the high school fan like all of us on here.

Barney, this a good point. I remember when Jim Davis covered local sports in Sevier County  and he was on top of everything. He covered high school, middle school, English mountain football, sevier county elementary basketball, Sevierville pony league games, anything you can name.  If it involved sports in sevier county he covered it. I also remember when Keith Jones was sports editor and he did a really good job covering local sports. I was happy to pay for a newspaper subscription back then. But now local sports barely get covered.  I can read more on coach T or Facebook than I can in the local paper. But I’m not spewing venom. I realize the obstacles local newspapers face and I appreciate the efforts they give on local sports. But I do miss the old days when the local newspapers covered all the local sports. Guess I’m just an old timer sitting in the stands with no insight on local sports. Or fundamentals of the sports being played.

Agree 100%. Maybe the info is available somewhere, I don’t know. I’m not sure if there is any team news.

    • 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.
