If Johnson wants to be at 152 I hope he is able to make it, from what I've read it's going to be close.It sounds like he will have to make weight (154)at all his remaining dates. As long as he stays healthy he should wrestle at whatever weight he feels best at.In region 6 160 is stacked, but at 152 Johnson has already lost to Wilkerson of Lipscomb and went 1-1 with Littlejohn from McGavock.Good luck to Josh at whatever weight he ends up at.

Twittycanes,

 

At 160 my picks from region 6 are

Pack McGavock

Byrd ML King

Vanderloop Hillsboro

Eric Martin Overton if he is wrestling at 160

At 152 in region 6

Johnson Antioch if he is at 152

Jenkins ML King

LittleJohn McGavock

Wilkerson Lipscomb

 

I really havent put these guys in any particular order I would have to see the Brackets before I could put them where I think they will finish.

As far as Johnson being weaker at 152 only he knows if he's stronger at 52 than at 60 but I believe he feels he has a better chance in the region at 52 than at 60 because of the depth in the 160 weight class

Scruggs is at 152. He went to state last year ad has a good chance to go again. Also, don't overlook Elliot Durr at 160 for FRA. I will admit be being somewhat biased, but he has a good chance of upsetting one of those guys that you have listed.

I'm not too sure, we haven't wrestled too many region teams. I think he lost to the Lipscomb 152, but I don't think he wrestled the McGavock 152 when we wrestled them. We haven't wrestled MLK or Antioch either. But he has gone to state before, and knows how to wrestle well when it matters. I guess we won't know for a couple of weeks, but I'm pretty sure he has the experience and the ability to beat one of those guys.

I agree that he has the experience. But man 152 is loaded. MLK kid is the head of that class. Wilkerson from Lipscomb beat Johnson, Littlejohn & Scruggs but that dont mean anything 'til February. I think it will come down to who is the healthiest & who wants it more. Dont count out Latham from Overton either. No one has even mentioned him. He could be a sleeper. In 152 there is going to be a few pretty good wrestlers that will be staying at home. Good Luck to everyone!

    • 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.
    • An FYI: To see how an opponent has done against another opponent since 2001- go to the game by clicking on one of the teams. Click the G beside the game. For example, Milan: The info will show you the previous matchups and other info.
    • All these college signees went yo other schools for 3 years, were getting college offers then transferred to Bearden. It’s not like this staff did much to develop them.    The BBall coaches son and the Seymour transfer were some of the most talented QBs in the region, and you guys developed them into QBs who might complete one pass a game.
