Did a little looking around and see that he played his soph year at North Idaho, his freshman year at Hiwassee. Can't find any record of him at Trevecca. In my opinion he did more than any player on Cleveland's team his senior year. Yarbrough basically just stood around on the court his last year after he had committed to Tennessee. Meanwhile, Ware was very impressive.

I AGREE, I HONESTLY BELIEVED THAT VINCENT YARBROUGH WAS A LIL OVER RATED. I THOUGHT THEIR BEST PLAYER WAS RUSSELL WARE. I SAW HIM VS CLARKSVILLE IN THE STATE TOURNAMENT IN 1997 GUARD TRENTON HASSELL (CHICAGO BULLS ROOKIE) TOE TO TOE. HE NEVER WORE DOWN EITHER AND BELIEVE ME TRENT WAS ALOT TO DEAL WITH IN HIGH SCHOOL. THE MEDIA LEFT THERE SAYING THAT HASSELL HAD PUT ON THE BEST ONE GAME PERFORMANCE OF ANYBODY THEY SAW COME THROUGH MTSU FOR A STATE TOURNAMENT..THAT INCLUDING PENNY HARDAWAY AND RON MERCER ALONG WITH OTHER GREAT STARS, SO THAT SHOULD TELL YOU WHAT RUSSELL WARE WAS ABOUT.

I was a member of the Cleve High School basketball team the year that we played Clarksville in the state tournament and Russell (aka Tater) Ware did not guard Trenton Hassell. It was Vincent Yarbrough that guarded him and Vincent did a good job on him considering that he in the NBA now and he was one of the best players to ever play in the state tournament. The reason that Ware did not guard him is because "Tater" is about 6'3'' and Hassell is about 6'7'' that's why Yarbrough guarded him.

Basspro I played on that team as well, and i got to say that Hassell lit us up but there was nobody in the state that could stop him. All i really remember wasy him killin Del Baker, if Hassell would had any help we might not have got out of the first round.

      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.
