Congratulations to both.  Max's finals was something, I think his opponent was re-evaluating his life in Wrestling after that whooping.  Kid wound up for blast double on Max and Max didn't move an inch upon receiving, kid just sat down like he hit a wall, even confused Max for a moment.  Later in the match the kid was vigorously tapping (BJJ style) and Max was having none of it.  Just kept right on wrestling like he should.  Kid cursed the ref and smacked Max's hand (all the while having a fat bloody lip) during the hand shake at the end. Max's face in that moment was so good, I wish I could post a pic. Never change Max, an animal, just an animal.

Some others took third and fourth and wrestled tough.

Max dominated his finals opponent. Kid tried to tap out for abt 20 seconds and neither the ref nor Max were having any part of it. That being said, Max had a very tough road to even get to the finals. IMO, both of Max's quarters and semis oponents would have beaten his opponent in the finals as well. Great job Max!

JoJo smoked everyone in his path thru the semis, wrestled a very smart match in the finals and did an excellent job of scrambling to not give up a takedown on several occasions. Burnett is a very tough kid but it was JoJo's day to be the dog. Great job JoJo!

Not taking anything away from JoJo who wrestled a great match but I expect to see Burnett at 106lb for the high school season.  While I have no confirmation I have heard that JoJo will be at 120lb during the high schools season.  Is this true or have I been fed a line of BS?

    • 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.
