I was wondering where in Williamson County Independence will be. Which schools will it take players from? What classification will they be? Who is rumored to get the job? Should they be a good team? What colors will they be (I'm guessing red, white and blue, but that isn't always the case as with Independence Charlotte)? What will their mascot be?

It will be near the Thompson's Station/ Spring Hill area, however that area is more in the southern/middle part of the county. There's alot of debate going on right now as to where they will draw kids from. The Franklin, Centenial, and Page people all seem to disagree on where to draw the new zoning lines. I'd imagine that they will start out like Ravenwood did and build up each year class by class and play in 5A or 4A.

Yes, it's between Thompson's Station and Franklin on U.S. 31 at the Goosecreek Bypass. The zoning issue has been settled and for us at Franklin it was fairly favorable. You can go to www.wcs.edu to check it out. They have named their athletic director and it will likely be very soon that we know the football coach. Some names that have been tossed around include Aydellot at Hillsboro, Alvin Palmer (currently an assistant at Page), and Herritage Middle's head coach. They'll be 4A or 5A, yes.

    • 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.
