Dickson County school system has 3 exceptional middle schools. Dickson Middle School, feeder to Dickson County High School has always had a great program thru the years, including a 75 game winning streak at one time. The new High School, Creek Wood, has 2 fine feeder schools:William James Middle School and Charlotte Middle School. William James has gone 7-2 and 6-2 the last couple of years and Carlotte Middle went 7-1 while winning the Mid-Cumberland Athletic Conference regular season and bowl Championahip this past season.

BUD,

I'd say overall it has been Sevier...I think it is 8 consecutive years they have won outright or shared (as this year) the football title, they won the East Tennessee Sectional basketball title this year (beating Indian Trail, who is the other basketball power in the conference, it was the second sectional title for the Warriors since the TMSSA started the tournament in 1998), they have won the baseball title the past two years (Robinson had been a stronger baseball school in the past along with Indian Trail), Sevier has won the track title for many years. All the schools really have solid programs, but Sevier is always in the mix for all the boys titles...Indian Trail is very strong across the board as well.

Who do you support middle school &/or H.S. wise?

Bud,

My Dad played @ Sevier & D-B, I played @ Sevier & D-B, I have a son playing 2 sports @ D-B who played @ Sevier, another who has just finished up his playing days @ Sevier and will be a freshman @ D-B, and another who is a 6th grader this year @ Sevier who plans to follows his brothers' footsteps and play 3 sports next year @ Sevier.

I obviously am a fan of the Warriors & the Indians, but the middle 7 conference has some great coaches and teams all over...boys & girls (I also have two daughters who have gratuated from Sevier & D-B and are now in college). Indian Trails' basketball coach does a great job with his team; Dugger's football is always a very well physical, well coached team; Church Hill's football coaches do a great job of preparation; RNR always plays fundamentally sound baseball (and that goes back to my junior high days); RNR had some horses this year in football they were well coached, too; Unicoi County girls basketball had the best press offense I have seen at any level back when my girls were playing, so fundamentally sound; Vance's kids always play hard, regardless of the sport or the score, they play hard.

Northeast Tennessee is blessed with outstanding middle school coaches, and yes I am partial to Sevier, but I am proud of all who coach and participate

When I was talking about true middle school football, I'm talking about football that is sanctioned by the school system. I know in Knox Co. they have youth league football thru 8th grade, but it's not sanctioned by the middle school.

 

Also, does anyone know if Mt. Juliet, Hendersonville, LaVergne, Centennial, and Brentwood have middle school football?

    • 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.
