I'm not into bashing high school athletes, but outside of Fulton (AAA so far) the teams have been embarrassing. White County was weak. This Ridgeway team has less skill than a lot of 6th grade teams. Chester County is not good. Volunteer was average at best. MLK, athletic but not skilled... Am I missing something? 

Yup 3A is mostly a joke. This state never needed 4 classes.

Credit Ridgeway for the comeback. Super quick with good defensive energy. However, to barely win that after turning over CC 33 times in 32 minutes speaks volumes as to the lack of basketball skill. Hopefully, Haywood can give the viewers a "breath of fresh air" because that last game was miserable to watch.

I'm not one to bring politics into high school sports, but in this case it can't be avoided...the liberal Memphis governments (city and school board) decision to shut down during covid gutted the basketball programs there. Kids went where they could play, the entire system was watered down from that, and the fact that the rest simply lost a year of basketball. I'd bet that the Memphis privates and Mississippi boarder schools are better than usual from it.

Volunteer was riding a hot streak from the middle of February. Ran out of steam finally. They came out of halftime ready to give it a go. Got it to within 5, but they ran out of horses. Fulton hit another gear, and it was over.

White co played decent in the first. Terrible in the 2nd. And awful in the third. Mlk outscored wc32-15 in the third to take a 22 point lead into the 4th. Wc then went on a run in the 4th out scoring mlk 17-0 to make it interesting. Only a 5 point deficit with 3 min left the female ref started fouling out wc starters. The reason we lost is we got out rebounded by 30 and missed most of our free throws. Also the female ref was one of the worst i ever seen. Give a lot of credit to mlk. They were very athletic. I agree with the earlier poster that said that most of the teams in AAA is just not very good. I wasnt really all that impressed with fulton.

    • 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.
