Coaches on staff should not be coaching 7v7 of their players as far as I know that is illegal.

You are correct and usually a middle school coach that does the 7V7 (At least thats what i've seen in Knoxville).  If he is talking about the kids doing 7v7 with the Witten Huddle team, that isn't ran by the coaching staff at Betsy. (It's ran by Ryan who is the brother of Shawn and Jason and the Head Coach at Milligan College for their Girls Flag Football team).  Witten Huddle team isn't exclusive to just Betsy athletes either and know current and former Greeneville players that played on those teams over the years

Swipes Isn't Wittens brother on the high school staff as well as the middle school?

That I do not know. I do know he is the Head Coach for the Woman's Flag Football team at Milligan.  If he is in fact on the High School Coaching Staff then that would appear to be illegal

I'm sure those 1's and 2's at Elizabethton will be more than happy to give up their position to the kid who is just transferring into the school his senior year.  Nothing better than working your tail off for years just to give up your spot to a transfer.

This thread is hilarious.  Yeah that Witten Huddle has never been used to recruit, no sir.  Elizabethton is a power house, winning breeds success, but come on let's not try and hide everything that's going on over there.  Carter County All Stars are now the Carter-Sullivan All Star Team.

Wake up because that is HS football now. They will either ride the pine, find a new position, or transfer. Every school recruits. Some are better than others, some don't have to try as hard after awhile once they start winning more than the surrounding area schools.

If the TE wants a shot at a state title then this is a good move because Sullivan East will never be in a championship.    That's not to say that colleges would not recruit from SE but if he wants to play at the next level then Elizabethton is a better option.

Unless we see some changes in the local recruiting, that ship has sailed.  Rest of the state has caught up and passed our orange and green friends.  5A looks better for them right now, 4A is becoming tougher and tougher.

May have already been mentioned. Apologies if this is the case. There seems to be a change of plans. The kid is definitely not playing for Betsy next year. 

Is he staying at SE?  I saw he picked up some more offers from Ole Miss, Miss State, Syracuse,Arizona State, Colorado State, ECU, MTSU, and WKU.

    • 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.
