Don't you think that while it is jumping, that more people would show if they knew they would get a seat? I personally know of several people from Kingston, LC and Loudon that were not going because the gym is too small and they were worried about finding a seat. If a full house and noisy atmosphere was all that was needed, why have the State tourney in a big place like MTSU. All I am saying is there could have been more people at the games and more money for the schools at a bigger place. Maybe when Roane County decides to build some new schools with bigger gyms it will get better.

Complaints when the gym is too small, complaints when the gym is too big and you can't fill it up with people. Complaints about having to drive too far, complaints about it being so close it doesn't "feel like a real tournament." Complaints about the games starting so early that people who work can't come watch, complaints that the games don't end until very late. Complaints about this, complaints about that.

 

Fans will be fans. If they want to watch the game, they will come. If they don't, they won't... and will consequently come up with a convienient excuse to make you think they really wanted to come.

 

If "worry" about not finding a seat is the primary complaint, there's very little to be concerned about. All that tells you is that they don't care enough about their team to consider coming a little early... if they even had to... which they don't, as Goose reports.

I've been there for most if not all of the tournament, but just to play devil's advocate - just because seats are available doesn't mean you want to sit there! If the only seats available are in your opponent's section...

 

I like the atmosphere but I wouldn't complain about a little more breathing room.

Most of the Kingston section has been filled with OS people ;). Seems like a good chunk of the Kingston crowd has been sitting in the end section. I may have to come and stand with you or Hall if it gets too crowded.

 

And students...don't get me started on Kingston students (or lack thereof!).

      Who vandalized Maryville's Football Field?

      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.
