Bradley will finish second in the region behind cleveland but will go on to sectionals and lose to Blackman and won’t go to state.

That’s what I thought, but I wasn’t sure if they were down so far that someone would knock them off for 2nd. I’m not close to Chattanooga area so I wasn’t sure if there was an upstart that might take that spot.

Cleveland And Bradley are so far above everyone else in the region. East Hamilton/Walker Valley used to have some decent teams but not good enough to take over the second spot.

I'm not expecting Blackman to just walk into the state duals.  We still have to show up and wrestle.  For several years, Bradley has been known for having some tough well known kids, but what sometimes goes unnoticed is their ability to take kids who most people don't know and turn them into hammers.    

What's Walker Valley like this year?

Bradley will struggle this year. They have a couple kids but I believe this has been a long time coming. Their kids club has been neglected for years now. Which is one reason I believe Ben left. He knew what was coming after last years senior class left. Walker isn’t a bad team but not good enough to upset Bradley

Wrong…

Ben planned several years ago to leave and give Bryant the program then. But the parents of this past Senior class talked him into staying. 
My picks for duals

1) Cleveland

2) Blackman

3) Summit

 Both Wilson Central and Bradley will struggle this year. But it is expected after the classes they graduated.

Summit beats Blackman by 25

Blackman definitely gonna have a big year, but i don’t see anyone in AA outside of Cleveland being close to Summit. 

If i had to pick a podium right now id say:

1. Cleveland

2. Summit

3  Blackman

4  Nolensville

    • 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.
