Anybody noticing that 75% of the post on this thread talks about the band? 

Let's see if we can move it to 85% by 1pm. I'll do my part. Here's how I see the band. A football game is not the same without them. I like to hear the school song when the team runs onto the field. I like the school song after we score. I like the band to perform the halftime show while I go to the bathroom and concession stand and talk to a friend about what happened in the first half. I'll be honest, I don't have a very good ear for music. I can tell when a band is not very good. But I can't tell the difference between descent band, a good band, and a great band. They all sound the same to me.

If you had told me before the game that DB would drive it straight down the field and take the lead to start the second half and be in the game late,I would have taken that .It was ugly all the way around .As for the play calling, I've seen Tom Brady win a Super bowl because a team decided to pass at the goal line.It happens and life goes on.looking back is always 20-20.DB got burt on the blitz several times but I seen that when the best defensive coach in NET history called a blitz several years ago.I expected a tough game but really thought Elizabethton was two or three touchdowns better going in.Best of luck to Elizabethton until the rematch in the playoffs with my Devils.

Yes, best of luck to all these young men  and pray they grow into better men as they become armchair QB’s like us!

    • 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.
    • 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.
