I like your stat better than mine, but I have double-checked mine. I get the official stats e-mailed to me after each Covington game, and Skylan is listed for 47 yards rushing on 15 carrys in the Dyersburg game. What is the source of your data?

Well like I said know for a  fact what he had that night. Heck his first rd run was 60 plus in that game. I have kept stats for Lake County since the 2000 season. I take alot of pride in having both teams stats correct.

Are you talking about Calvin Mullins and Lake county? We’ve been talking about Skylan Smith, who plays for Covington, during the game against Dyersburg. Covington did not have a 60 plus yard run in that game.

Just saw an article in the Commercial Appeal that is a reprint from the Tennessean. The article lists 5 front runners for the 3A Mr. Football award:

Brady Hammonds - QB - Gatlinburg-Pittman

Radarious Jackson - QB, RB, DB, & receiver - Sheffield

Justyce Law - QB - Stratford

Brandon Winton - Receiver - Alcoa

Skylan Smith - RB - Covington .

I won’t try to put the entire article here, but it gives a nice thumbnail sketch of each player. Good luck, young men!

Watched Hammonds All Year. Two d1 receiver with great cast every one can catch the ball. Cream puff region scored 144  6 first Three region games last two won't be any different. Game 13 is what it all comes down to. Doing what we've never done.

Hopefully you'll see the real Mr. Football. Alcoa's #7, when GP "tries" to tackle him! :thumb:

Skylan Smith of Covington continues to add to his season stats. After 9 games, he has:

 

Rushing 172 rushes for 1536 yards, 8.9 avg, 24 TD’s

Receiving 11 catches 229 yards 20.8 avg. 3 TD’s

KO returns 9 for 387, 43 avg 2 TD’s

So, his 29 TD’s are a pretty good total.

Giles County has three worthy candidates, but two of them somewhat cancel each other out.

Kamauri Turner is a senior playmaker that will go down as one of the best to ever wear a GCHS uniform. He has played QB/RB/WR all season for GCHS and has made several big plays defensively (when needed). The kid is an absolute gamer.

Nearly 1,500 total yards and 18 total touchdowns.

 

X'Zorion Randolph is a senior RB that will go over 1,000 yards rushing this season, but could likely have gone for 2,000 without Turner being such a force. He has 15 total touchdowns, including a 75-yard KO return.

 

Amare Smith is a senior OL/DL who has been a four-year staple on the offensive line for GCHS. He is the captain of the offense and is a terror at the tackle position. He has a sack and two fumble recoveries in limited defensive snaps (when needed). He is the son of former GCHS and UT Vols basketball standout Tyler Smith.

 

All three are tremendous young men and worthy of nomination, but I don't know if they will have the votes to get an official nomination, which is sad.

    • 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.
