Did you know that Fulton's 3 best players are out of zone? As long as kids transfer coming out of 8th grade OR move into the new school's zone it is all good. This transfer stuff has always been around. Find it funny that all of a sudden people are upset about Bearden football cause they finally are relevant. Was there all of this outrage when Jones was at Fulton or Powell? Oh, quite a few were, that I know of. I’ve known about him since his Fulton days. It’s no coincidence when he left Fulton they started sucking big time. Lowe @ Powell is still a good enough coach to keep Powell relevant or they’d probably suck too.

Bearden Football is just now joining the recruiting game with JJ. But they have long been involved with recruiting primarily in basketball and soccer. But… it’s not just 8th graders. I recall a recent girls state basketball title team with three starters that transferred after playing at other schools. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That makes a ton of sense. No surprise about Fulton. Wright has been recruiting for years from my understanding. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just like my admirals baseball team and Maryville/Alcoa football Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JournalEntry Posted December 1, 2023 Author Report Share Posted December 1, 2023 I don’t know why they can’t instill that effort, attitude and toughness that Blevins always had in his players. His teams in 2010’s were rock solid as far as what you want in a HS program. Bearden just puts together “teams” of recruits now, not a real program.

I have been able to watch them at least twice every year for the last 25 years, and I completely disagree with your comments. Furthermore, about 95% of those boys I see play at Bearden were the same kids I saw play in middle school for West Valley. If anything there have been fewer recruits playing over there since Blevins left. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JournalEntry Posted December 1, 2023 Author Report Share Posted December 1, 2023 Some of the players on that roster most certainly played in middle school, they just did so for Karns, Carter… and West Valley. Nonetheless, excited to catch the West game tonight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JournalEntry Posted December 6, 2023 Author Report Share Posted December 6, 2023 Big game vs Fulton this weekend. Can’t wait to see a great Fulton team play against that Bearden club. Interested to see if Bearden chooses to play defense. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The last several years Bearden has played excellent defense from what I have seen. They regularly hold teams well under their season averages. Right now coacht page has them allowing only 40.8 ppg... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
