Anti recency bias is strong in you lol those teams weren’t that much better  than today lol I remember when you had go through depending on the year goodpasture, Friendship christian, Lipscomb and whatever solid public almost always Alcoa and maybe Milan, Huntington, etc to win 2A before 10 years ago these boys are fortunate and get a much more fair shake. If you won 2A with just a bunch of local public school guys 20 years ago you had to be special. 

See my response to General but in 09 Marion Counth had to play York, Smith, and Boyd Buchannon to get to Alcoa in the 4th round. 

In 2012 it was more watered down but had to face a very good Friendship Christian in the 2nd round

Yea thats a  gauntlet. Good example. That 12’ and the 11’ FC squad were very good. I watched FC in 12’ beat Adamsville by 40 in the championship game. Lol

Friendship beat a very good Dresden team in 11 and a in my opinion  Adamsville’s best team in 2012 besides their 2014 team. They did whatever they wanted to them in those games

That Adamsville team had won 12 straight going into that championship game too lol Probably best they have it all separated more appropriately now (I would have only 5 public classifications if I was boss) but its definitely much easier now while saying it doesnt take away from the kids accomplishments

I remember there was a stretch some of those privates were winning state in 1A till they started the “private league”  and during that time they would have their way with a smaller school in the playoffs that probably had their best team in a while

Yeah they had the QB that signed with Syracuse. Think he was getting looks from Tennessee at the time. As honk said, FC blew Adamsville out in the ship. I got that wrong, they beat Marion County in the 3rd round. 

 

Either way not trying to take away from these teams currently. I think it is better that they have the privates and publics separate now. 

 

Was shocked to see Oakland beaten so handedly. The first two games today were as good as advertised

I was too. Houston beat a well talented Germantown team in the 3rd round by a good amount, they schemed Oakland up

    • 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.
