A school with an enrollment of less than 450 shouldn't ever beat a school with an enrollment of 3000 plus in anything. 

But it happened today. I know G-Dub is good. I saw them with my own eyes make 13 3's in a quarter last year against Twin Springs in the state tournament. But that's Twin Springs not Dorman. 

Not always true. In Kentucky one of the favorites to win state is a school under 300 enrollment.

Folks the lesson learned is never EVER EVER EVER leave a game early.

Arby's Classic game 11 final.

Imhotep 58, Maryville 52

Red Rebels led 46-19 when I left mid third quarter.

Panthers outscored Murvil 39-6 the remainder of the game to pull off one of the most improbable victories in Arby's History.

To put this in perspective, the Red Rebels were 3 points away from the running clock being implemented for the reminder of the game. Just absolutely unbelievable.

Maryville will play Dobyns-Bennett in the final game of tomorrow's early session in what could be a preview of a TSSAA 4A sweet 16 matchup later down the road. 

Imhotep will play Mater Lakes in tomorrow nights quarterfinal four.

Did you stay for it all? Stupid me left. 

 

Stuck around. It was almost unreal. It wasn’t like he was just attacking the rim and finishing. He just kept drilling deep shots, contested, falling down, didn’t matter. I kept thinking okay, he can’t keep this up and Maryville has enough cushion that when he cools off they can hang on. Nope, never happened, he just refused to be denied.

    • 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.
