Any word on how smith is looking this year? Had a very strong run to the quarters last year. Can they build off the momentum from last year and make a deep run?

Do they return alot? If so, I would say they will do pretty well considering they moved down to 2A and didn't make any major changes. Don't know much about Smith County though. The west, especially in region 6, will be a gauntlet and most of those teams will be playoff ready or injured (don't wish this on any player or team) by the time post season comes around. Gonna be an exciting season!

Gordonsville, DeKalb County, Macon County, Trousdale County, East Robertson, Upperman, Westmoreland, and Monterey all are on the Owls schedule.  That's a challenging schedule to say the least.  Liberty Creek will also be a "wild card" because nobody knows just how good they'll be this year in year number one at the varsity level.

With the pieces that Smith County returns in 2023 and the fact that they are now in 2A and don't have to play East Nashville in the playoffs I would say that the Owls have a strong shot at making a serious run to Chattanooga.

Enough returning pieces to make some noise! Need some youngins on the front line to step up and If our backfield is healthy we will be okay! 2 me we are underdogs in the region though. Preseason we look to be fighting for 2nd place. East Robertson via social media has more D1 Athletes than UT!  Not sure how they haven't had more success, but looking forward to that challenge. I like our chances though!

ER fans have literally said y’all are the team to beat. Stop trying to make bulletin board material.

Lol. ER is battling for second. Are you needing attention. They haven’t had success in the past due to a whole coaching staff. Also when you have a 6’5” athlete why wouldn’t you get recruited. Just taking one kid here. Not 7

    • Deja vu all over again, 7 yrs apart. SMDH Does anybody talk to each other?
    • OK, well, that’s because two quarterbacks can’t start. That’s football 101. The main quarterback won the starting job, so he was on varsity, and the Seymour transfer did not win the starting job. He played some varsity. He was mainly junior varsity, and he balled out when healthy, so for the starting quarterback who’s been starting varsity since his freshman year, if you have any form of proof that he’s gotten worse, somehow, whether that means stats or whatnot, please feel free to share.
    • 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.
