What stinks though is that those two guys plus two others that can throw over 46 are all in the same section making the competition extremely hard to make it to state. And what stinks even more is that the top throw from another section is probably gonna be somethin lower than the worst throw of these four shot putters.

I guess a person who can throw 43 deserves to get to go to state instead of a person that can throw 46...

I know you think that the Nashville A/AA section is just loaded in the shot put and will have 4 of the top throwers in the state, but you don't realize some of the other marks that have been thrown around the state. The Memphis area has had a 49' and 46' throw. The Chattanooga section has had a 46' throw, and the state leader for boys A/AA is Josh Bentley from Sullivan North in section 1-A/AA who has a throw of 53' 4.25". Just thought I would let you see what you guys are up against across the state.

guys, look out, RocknTN is the authority on everything

 

but seriously, Id be willing to bet that there are throws under 46 that make it t state, which is all puttheshot was saying...

 

-and puttheshot, you may not be trying to act like you know every throw down to the 1/4 inch, but I am- the Ezell guy threw 46'10.5"

Really?...I said that? hmmm...well I guess I have a bad memory or something. So far coaster is the only person smart enough to understand the point I made.

Thanks Coach Chris for you input though..

46 and 47 feet isn't "loaded" by any means. I could throw that at the region meet tomorrow and get 5th or 6th place. If 46 feet gets you to states, then your region is weak.

Well, 1st and second was 48-01.5 and 46-10.5. The next two were both 46-6 and then 5th was 45-11.5....

 

...that seems pretty solid to me- I dont know who you are, but you would have to break 46 to get that 5th place spot you were talking about.

 

Also, there are four sections- I know results for two of them in shot, and so far, Section 3 has the two farthest throws.... so what are you talking about? the sections stacked...

In section 1-AAA, we had 9 throws over 45 feet, 7 over 46 and 4 throws over 48 feet. I was fortunate enough to be able to get a long one off and get in the state. I felt we had the strongest region in the state all year long and the best shot-putter in our region didn't even get in. I think he was also the best shot-putter in AAA in the state.

      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.
