I was just wondering why you get on here and argue with kids that are in high school. I mean i thought you were the GREAT ONE and supposed to be heading to the big time coaching league. COLLEGE. But i mean you are 25-30 year old adult sitting on a computer fighting with a HIGH SCHOOL KID. what does this accomplish, besides making you look like a idoit. Come on and grow up. And please where some better shoes if you ever do make it to college and coach. Those silver shoes went out of style long ago. Good Luck

This is ridiculous , I see why I have been gone for two long. I have a great up and coming coach arguing with two mediocre at best players about who is better on summer circuit. Who cares? I wouldn't neccessarily expect more from average players w/ big egos, but Gomab come on! We both know, that as a former Traveler coach, that neither one could hold a candle to the Travelers of old. The program as a whole is on the decline and we ALL know why.

The kids from Memphis that are going are...

 

Andre Allen 5-9

Rousean Cromwell 6-10 jr

Seane Williams 6-8

Pierre Niles (10th grader) 6-6

Frank Holmes 6-7

 

I believe Lawrence and a few others are going to OTHER Nike camps...it is my impression that these camps are held throughout the summer, but there is one big one (the All-American Camp)...perhaps someone else can shed light in to this.

Why is the coach of the Ballerz arguing with teenagers on a public message board?

 

As for the Travelers being down, I'd say that's a little premature. The true test is the test of time, and the Travelers and the YOMCA are the only ones that have endured. As for being sponsored, that's something you have to earn and maintain.

In order to predict the future, one must look to the future. The Travelers must once again be able to get local Middle Tn talent in order to be successful. They will always find one or two East Tn. "flunkies" to go along w/ their marquee players, but w/ up and coming programs (Ballerz, Thunder, etc...) getting the kids the Travelers used to get, it does make it more difficult. they have no one here in Nashville w/ any expertice and street credability to lock any of these kids down for the summer anymore. Those days are over. People have to understand, Brewer, Dansby, Harris were all approached 4 years ago. Who of any quality have they picked up lately on a consistent basis (I'm sure there are 1 or 2)

    • Deja vu all over again, 7 yrs apart. SMDH Does anybody talk to each other?
    • 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.
