I watched this guy in week zero and in the State Championship. I think that he is one of the three best quartebacks I have seen all year long(the other two being Garmany from Rhea Co. and Edminston form Lincoln Co.) His ability to escape the rush was amazing. Good luck to him and I hope someone takes a chance on him to play QB at the next level, they will be glad they did.

Will is exceptional, I hope he will continue to work hard and choose the school he wants to play for next year. There are lots of examples of so called undersized football players who people said couldn't make it. Doug Flutie is almost a midget. Dolphins linebacker Zach Thomas is about 5-11 max. There are lots of examples. I really believe if Will wants to be great at a big time program, the only thing that will keep him from accomplishing that goal is not believing in himself. I hope that doesn't happen.

You here that UNCLEBUC, don't let that happen!

i see will on a daily basis and can safely say that if there was one word to describe him, it would be exceptional. he is an exceptional athelete, student, family member, and friend. will will succeed in life, not based on his athletic ability, which is top notch, but based on his character. he is deserving of a board like this. not because of his need for an ego booster, but he is a role model for so many yound students at boyd, as well as around the chattanooga area. to be honest, i don't know that much about football, but i do know something about what it takes to be a champion. will is a champion. not just in football, but in life. if you read this will, best of luck in the future. last friday taught you a life-lesson. learn from it and you'll be a champion. also... DID YOU FIND IT???

Will's dad, Rob Healy, was a star tailback at Ga. Tech back in the early 70's. As I recall, he led them to a Liberty Bowl victory his senior year. His grandfather, Bill Healy, was an All- American guard at Ga. Tech and considered to be one of the school's all time best at that position. Will's uncle Chip, despite heavy pressure from Tech at the time, did not follow his father and played at Vanderbilt where he was an All-American linebacker his senior season. So there is a connection there that might cause Tech to overlook his size and take a chance on Will based on what are obviously some good genes. Rob was maybe one of the two or three best high school athletes to come out of the Chattanooga area in the late 60's and a truly nice guy in his own right.

Will is one of the greatest individuals off the playing field one will ever meet. He is smart, modest, polite, and truly fun to be around. I know this board is used for talking about sports and athletic ability, but I just want to make clear what some overlook in Will Healy. I can guarantee that wherever his future takes him he will carry his genuine good nature and selflessness with him. Good luck with the recruiting process Will and may God continue to bless you and your family

I went to the CPA-BB game last Fiday as I am a proud CPA parent whose son plays for CPA. I was so impressed with Will Healy's abilities and heart during the game. What was really interesting was that as I watched my son on CPA and Will on BB, I found out that Will's dad is Rob and his uncle is Chip, both of whom I played against in high school. I was a player at Castle Heights Military Academy and they played at Baylor (along with John Hannah - now in Pro Football Hall of Fame). It hardly seems 30+ years since I played against the Healys, but Friday brought back some great memories.

Congratulations, BB and Will Healy. It was a game that was almost a shame that it had to have a loser.

    • 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.
