Bearden 4-1.

 

 

Im disappointed in the lack of storied traditional state teams at state this year. Bearden, Houston, and Farragut seem to be the only big programs their. I thought state being re-done was supposed to bring more big programs and better competition. Im not trying to be negative to the other schools that made it (Congrats to them and good luck), just wondering what happened to Brentwood, Hendersonville, Germantown, Clarksville, Franklin, Gallatin, Science Hill, and other traditional powerhouses in the state of soccer. Hope the teams there make it a great tournament.

Maybe it's not that the "bigger" schools are getting worse, but that the other schools are catching up. Every year brings in new players and teams that werent as good get better. I think the new state tournament bracket gets more teams involved and helps create better competition. Personally I love seeing underdog teams play in the state tournament, rather than teams that make it to Spring Fling every single year.

Hey Bhs, do you want to know why those teams are not there this year?

 

because they lost

 

Brentwood and Clarksville lost to Smyrna, Gallation didn't even make it out of their district, nor did Franklin, and Science Hill lost to Farragut. Traditional powerhouses always fall eventually, and if you don;t win, you don't make it in. Simple as that.

I think it is a good thing. What it means is that soccer is growing. More schools are fielding better teams. It can do nothing but enhance the sport in Tennessee.

Well put. The teams that got beat have nothing to be ashamed of. They have great programs, but now that some of the other not so well known schools are advancing, this can only help soccer in general. They lost probably because on this particular day they were not the better team. They should not have underestimated anybody especially this far along in the tournament. I know Hendersonville, Clarksville, and Brentwood are great teams, probably better than some of the teams still alive in the tournament, but thats why they play the games. To see who is better on that particular day. I know everybody figured the midstate would still have Brentwood, Hendersonville, and Clarksville still alive. Instead they have Centennial, Columbia and Smyrna. Hopefully this is a sign of things to come. congrats to Smyrna. They beat two really great teams to get to the final 8. Also to Centennial for beating Hendersonville. Columbia didnt have such a hard road to travel but we still had to beat a couple of teams that beat us quite convincingly during the season. Lets go represent the midstate the best we can.

I think that Bearden is going out to make a statement in their game tomorrow. They are going to show everyone that they are the two-time defending state champions and are ready for #3. Matt Herbstritt scores two goals, Victor Upshaw scores two, and Dale gets the last in a 5-0 game completely dominated by the Bulldogs.

    • Most of this is complete gibberish. But the one part I could decipher is putting kids in college. This coaching staff hasn’t put a single Bearden kid in college. They completed wasted one of the best WRs in East TN and have ruined two talented QBs. All because they’re in over their heads. 
    • Well, I’d hope the new coaching staff thinks they are all that because they can always walk around the school, anytime they want, thinking that, especially for what they’ve done for the student athletes and the players, putting more kids in college in his first season than the old coaching staff did in numerous years combined, but we will just sweep over that because I know you don’t like facts. But trust me, nobody wanted Mr. Big britches, made the star player switch to quarterback, which is ultimately the reason he ended up transferring to play the position. He loved, but unfortunately, had to be at another school because Mr. Big Britches doesn’t like when a teenager knows more than him, but can’t expect much coming from a guy who used all class throwing pencils up into the ceiling and making fun of football kids who were failing class right to their face, and in front of numerous students, even projecting on the board most of the time.
    • After that first paragraph, I can see why you’re a TA and not a teacher. Have you made the move from South Knoxville to Bearden yet?    Maybe he left because he is an actual teacher and coach, and didn’t want to be associated with a group of foul mouthed middle school coaches who like to pretend they’re big time. 
    • Yeah and the coach is gone. Whole bizarre situation here. We played them a couple of times at MTSU last few years. She was a player for sure. 
    • This whole situation is bonkers. You don’t just kick your star player off the team just because you heard them say the F word; the coach definitely had something against the player, or somebody definitely did. Also, nobody has brought up the idea that the school blackmailed the college to get the college to withdraw the scholarship offer, not to mention that the coach who kicked her off is no longer even with the program; they were fired. I think this is a pretty easy lawsuit. I don’t know if she should deserve that much money, but I think she should get enough money for a full-ride scholarship if she cannot get one after this situation.
